If we take the 60,000 excess deaths per year as a proxy, that means every single excess death of the last 14 years was valued at ~$142,000 in stock buybacks.

They're not sending their best, folks!
Swipe is too overloaded on phones. Sometimes the same gesture is tied to two different actions. Swiping up overloads scrolling with getting the home screen. Another is swiping right for going back, when several apps also use that gesture too; gmail archive comes to mind. I prefer the buttons (digital and analog) on Android because it's a much different input that won't confuse different actions.
We have these incredible devices with many sensors, and the best we can do is smudge the screen more often?

Nick's the butt of all our jokes!
You love to see it folks!
Horses used to live hard lives driving industrial equipment and warfare until the internal combustion engine freed them for the pasture. I imagine cars will follow a similar path, where enthusiasts can play around with them while we all have mass transit for the day-to-day.
Because when someone complains you can just go "tsk, yeah, capitalism man." And even the hardcore hogs are forced to agree.
Christmas is winning the War on Christmas, but at what cost?!
visually distinct designs instead of streamlined aerodynamic pods
Unironically electric vehicles will bring these back. Much of the 'streamlining' is for fuel efficiency, so as we move away from fossil fuels we can get cool cars back.
My unpopular tech opinion is Windows Subsystem for Linux is good enough for people that want to tinker with Linux without dealing with OS and/or driver problems. Same for Apple computers that are functional BSD machines without the headaches.
What Venture Capital Fortnite does to a studio!
it was my last hope for the franchise after UT4 got cancelled
I don't think :melon-musk: will last one!
Friendly reminder that Unreal Tournament 99 and 2004 are abandonware, and can be found on Archive.
Until we meet again!
I should effortpost this (you know, like all my other broken promises) but the success of the current :adventure-time: with has the same roots as Occupy and Anonymous. Memes driving collective action goes back to 4chan's /b/ board that pioneered the horizontal, decentralized, multi-city protests with Operation Chantology. Occupy and the Arab Spring were both hyped by Anonymous at the time as well, when they were flying high with (Lulz|Anti)Sec and DDOSing everything.
It also explains why these movements tend to fizzle out. Memes are fun when everybody is on board, but the meme eventually goes stale and replaced with the next. Rightwing success is less about competence than their ability (and infrastructure) to "force a meme" while others must rely on organic virality. The above "Occupy Mars" is a perfect example of a forced meme and the infrastructure that supports it because nobody else talks about it except Milhouse Musk.
I immediately read that with full vocals and musical background. Nice job!
Salted and roasted sunflower seeds. I have an apple tree, and it is the bomb!
That's why we gotta blow their minds!
Tell a :freeze-gamer: that pandering is subject to Capitalist Supply and Demand, and they must compete in the marketplace of ideas harder if they want more :chicken-bop:
...then sit back and watch their brain leak out their ears as they try to hold the contradiction in their head.
You could make "sausages", and there's vegan recipes too. Really hammers home the "mystery meat" vibe while also being actually tasty.
EDIT: I'm doubling-down on vegan "sausages" because tofu is the perfect cyberpunk foodstuff.
