Having read a lot of what you’ve recently written, I would work in your parents’ small business and train yourself to take it over.

You’re struggling with a lot of issues that are preventing you from thriving and part of those issues are made worse by not being economically independent. That you’re pointing out that homelessness is a risk seems to indicate that you don’t have enough savings to pursue your own path to freedom.

The problem is that Galaxy’s Edge got descoped later in the design process while Eisner made decisions early on in the design process to ensure a cheaper park.

Yeah. From what I see, they generally self-medicate with energy drinks.

Galaxy’s Edge feels emblematic about the issues of design under Iger versus Eisner.

Eisner vastly expanded park capacity, but he didn’t just focus on E-ticket attractions. He intentionally built some parts of the parks to entertain but cheaper to add capacity and give people a place to be entertained if they didn’t want to wait in long lines.

In contrast, most of Iger’s expansions were generally a lot more costly and didn’t have the throughout of previous E-ticket attractions. This ended up pushing Disney into being a more premium experience.

I feel like this is a symbol of the difference between the Eisner and the Iger CEO tenures. Eisner built out a massive expansion of the parks under his leadership, doubling the gates in Anaheim and Orlando while planning international expansion. Iger didn’t, choosing smaller expansions with premium experiences over capacity expansions.

It is part of the reason that Universal has been able to grow so much, Disney doesn’t have the capacity that it needs to meet high end theme park demand.

Given the number of porn video websites now, I don’t think the cost of video hosting is the major issue.

The bigger issue is likely having to moderate the site. Twitch focused on live streaming as a way to reduce exposure to copyrighted content and TikTok kept videos short enough that it could skate around fair use by not being able to air longer form copyrighted content.

There is also ability for external filtering.

It is easy to buy additional software to restrict websites. That equipment doesn’t work for most video games.

The complaints about the arms industry/the cost of war has been around since recorded history.

AI server farms has only been around for a few years.

Tom Selleck wants my house when I die.

But the magical box has changed shape and change is scary.

Big if true.

It isn’t even just the performance and bloat issues or the AI.

As you hinted, Windows 11 made a lot of changes to the UI. I can’t think of a single change made which I liked as someone who has had to deal with Windows since before 95. Windows 11 felt like a downgrade from Windows 10.

You’ve got a lot of managers with purchasing authority who developed a ton of muscle memory on old Windows. The new UI changes have made Windows feel alien enough that you can’t use retraining costs as an excuse to keep with Windows.

Windows 11.1.1 for desktops?

This wasn’t built to be a great service, it was built to be a French controlled one.

It is easier to get the public to accept they don’t have a safety driver involved at all with this middle step.

Nah. The worst idea is identifying another ethnicity as making better tasting meat and saying that it isn’t an issue to eat people outside your kin or kith.

Then you subjugate the population as breeding stock to create food for your society because the superior humanity shouldn’t concern itself with the treatment of lesser peoples. After all, if they didn’t deserve to be eaten, then why do they taste so good?

My worst experience in Word has been adapting a state based Word document to municipal use. The state knows what it is doing and uses styles as a great way to organize the document to provide direction.

Then the fucking county had a 60 year old secretary create a wrapper for that document and it fucking breaks everything.

I had a guy buy me two drinks at an expensive Vegas bar. He didn’t really even want to talk.
