  • Replayed the Prime series a bunch, most recently the switch remake of Prime.

    Great series, I didn’t like some of the dialog/cinematics of the third one but the gameplay was great.

    Dread was really good, exceeded expectations. Final boss was hard I’m not sure I ever beat it.

    Super Metroid was great but I’m not sure whether I ever beat Ridley.

    I think I completed the remake though. Really hoping to see Prime 4 at some point, maybe on a new console.

    I use Slack for personal projects and Teams for work. I think both are fine. The main reason it made sense to use Teams at work was because there were a number of products in use by different teams. IT had Slack and the rest had Zoom. Zoom was raising their costs and we already had Teams as part of 0365. So it was either buy Slack licenses for the entire company or just get everyone on Teams. It was kind of a no-brainer and it was hard to come up with a convincing argument to pay for Slack for everyone other than “Microsoft bad”.



  • There are some better ways to address this than what this post is advocating.

    For example, why should a corporation buying a residential property be getting the same (or better) interest rate than an individual who intends to buy it and live in it?

    Why should that corporation be able to deduct expenses that an individual could not if they were living there?

    There are ways to give the individuals a leg up over the corporations in the market without something drastic like this that has no chance of happening.

    The cover is related to the story, but I believe this cover was also used for a three book anthology which included other stories in addition to “Say Cheese and Die”. The main character acquires a camera that either predicts the future or causes bad things to happen… he takes this picture of his family at a BBQ and then die in a car accident or something.
