Mr. Egghead

@CAgovernor this preference towards homeless people that dont contribute to society is wild.

Huntington Beach is wasting time and taxpayer money defending its illegal NIMBY policies instead of serving its own residents. Enough excuses — every city must follow state law and do its part to build more housing.

@nicolasmertens @luo_yuehan What China produces for its domestic market tends to be quality versus what gets exported. This is a common misconception because western consumers buy cheap slop.

What do you mean? You have tons of companies in the West that are able to design this. Easily! Some in the east are able to do it albeit quality is subpar and cheap. On production I would say East and West are on par with the edge going east because they currently handle most of the production. (Japan is considered west)

Things you don't get in the West. Jensen Huang tries out Huawei's tri-fold phone in Beijing — it's too funny! #US #China

@isolatedrook Devs get chatty when they know their jobs are on the line

I didn't think I wanted a PvE mode in Marathon, but I’m actually hyped for it now. I can't remember the last time a dev team was so responsive and communicative with a playerbase, if ever. Despite the naysayers, I still believe we have something very special on our hands here.

Hasan Piker confirms Nithya Raman, candidate for LA Mayor, will be on stream tomorrow for an interview

@business High quality glutamate

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang was spotted eating Beijing’s famous fried bean sauce noodles. Huang, who is in Beijing as part of Donald Trump’s state visit to China, seemed perfectly content relishing the local staple right on the sidewalk. Follow our coverage from the summit: bloom.bg/3PDfoVX

@naiivememe It was transitory

Today is the last day of J.Powell as FED Chairman. only 3 words, what would you say to him?

@remarks This is great.

JUST IN: 🇺🇸 Alcohol consumption among US adults falls to the lowest level in modern history.

@GamewithDave kind of. you can digitize that library onto a plex server or htpc.

After years of streaming, people are starting to buy DVDs again because of price hikes, ads, and disappearing content. Fair move?

@MissVioletShade If Bungie prioritizes Marathon at the expense of Destiny 2, the ensuing community backlash will likely eclipse any controversy the studio has faced to date.

Joe Ziegler's Marathon blog post is MEATY with LOADS to unpack. For me, I am excited there is talks of Season 5 and beyond, but a big point of contention... PvE. Yes, the game needs it to bring more players in and I am 100% on board. BUT, Bungie has a big task on their hand CONVERTING these PvE players to the PvP activities and most importantly... the end game. At the rate by which the player health pool is right now, splitting the player base even more could be really really bad. The matches and queue times for the other playlists would be more unbearable than they are now. If Bungie can figure out how to draw the magic out of the PvE player, and make them engage in other content, it could be fantastic. But if the PvE players stick strictly to their PvE experience well... the rest of us are cooked. Time will tell. 🐛

@blueberriesGG It’s too bad what happened to Destiny 2. It was a fun game.

Into the Light's first dev livestream took place 21 days before release. Shadow & Order dev livestream next Tuesday (21 days before its release)?

@leadlagreport Follow the money, always.

Unpopular opinion: this stock market is fucking stupid

@PolishTamales Those big influxes used to be Destiny 2’s seasonal lows. Bungie really drove the ship right on the beach and ended their own legacy.

Bookmark this. Marathon will see a big influx of players during the first week of Season 2... at least for those who haven’t already refunded the game on Steam. Don’t expect it to break the current peak of 88,337. Realistically, we’re looking at 50,000–70,000 at most, in line with typical Destiny numbers. Also expect the same drop off as well. Ultimately, a bad game is still a bad game. First impressions matter. Unlike No Man Sky, Bungie has a $765 Million Impairment Loss stapled to it's forehead. Sony doesn't have the time & luxury to sit around and and find out what doesn't work.

@giancar73012035 Good observation. Bungie never built the platform Destiny 2 is on for this kind of longevity.

Destiny is the only "MMO" I've seen where most people are clamoring for a sequel. I've never seen people asking for Warframe 2 or WoW 2 as much as Destiny fans want Destiny 3.

@knardsh @robbysoave @grok Incredibly loud, especially if they aren’t wired to the grid and are relying on generators.

In residential areas tho? @grok how loud in decibels is an average (new) data center at approximately 1/4 mile distance? Give comparisons to other real world sounds. Summarize any studies on this type of sound pollution including YouTuber Ben Jordan’s fairly rigorous video on the topic. Everyone thinks they’re a yimby until they consider the reality of a loud endless rumble in their back yard.

We need to have data centers. I don't know what else to tell you. We should have them without eminent domain or tax breaks or other forms of corporate welfare. But we are going to have them.

@robbysoave The eminent domain for them is absurd.

@KnownAsSys End of an era

It is now mid may! We were told information would start dropping now, but it seems as though that promise was not kept. Unlucky.

@joelpollak Explains everything

No calculator! He does the math in his head.

@SPGamersX @geoffkeighley Destiny 3 would be great if it was made by a studio other than Bungie. Bungies current breadth of talent doesn’t speak to a wide audience.

@geoffkeighley All they had to do was make destiny 3

PlayStation has reported a 765 Million dollar impairment loss due to underperformance by Bungie.

@MarathonTheGame Destiny 2 died so Marathon could die. Marathon won’t escape entropy. This will go down as one of the greatest blunders in gaming history.

@ariaradnia If ai impacts software it will ultimately impact operating system platforms.

There's no way people are seriously convinced $MSFT is being disrupted 😂
