I completely forgot that I took a course in a semi-related subject so hopefully that doesn't come back to bite me. I was told to prepare a solution to one of six problems and said that I just did what I did because I knew the skillset and could wikipedia all the technical terms. They were surprisingly okay with that. I hear back in a few weeks/a month so I'll keep y'all posted. | ||

The pending Blizzard layoffs are a real kick in the teeth. They keep making good games that sell forever. But they don't make them fast enough to please stock holders, so clearly a whole lot of people needs to be let go. | ||

Do we know exactly what types of people (by profession) are being let go? I didn't dig too thoroughly but some "hundreds" of people were to be dismissed this Tuesday iirc. | ||

Management are most likely shareholders and sometimes (i dont know about blizzard) the CEO gets a bonus when the stock hits a target price. | ||

I remember buying Call of Juarez with some friends during some Steam sale. It looked fun and apparently it had a coop mode, so we can play something together again. After installing the game, it wanted to install the Ubisoft launcher, that's where we shut it down and asked steam for a refund because "I dont want to install another launcher". It worked. | ||
