Same with Apple. They pay a lot and it looks fantastic on your resume. Even though in reality the likelihood is that the job you did was basically the same as it would be in any other company, but Apple prestige is a thing.

No I understand that they pay very well what I'm saying is it just seemed odd that you would go to work for such a company without knowing that you were essentially walking with the devil.

If you make peace with that then absolutely fine, but it then seems a bit odd to turn around and be suddenly offended by something as if they hadn't already been doing stuff like that all along.

Shadow of the Colossus is a PS3 game right? I assume it is because I've never played it and the PS3 was the only PlayStation I never had. Also the same reason I never played Last Of Us.

As far as I'm aware there has never been a sequel, I know there's been remakes but never an actual sequel. Seems like a really odd game to pick, when there are so many actually currently developed titles that have better name recognition.

It's the very definition of a frivolous lawsuit. It won't see the inside of a courtroom except to get kicked out again.

This isn't the US you can't just sue for whatever random thing you want you actually have to have a case.

He is still responsible though. His entire job is that he probably vets economic policy, he can advise against doing something and if he doesn't like it he can resign. If he's just going to do whatever the prime minister tells him, then what the hell is the point in his job?

Every time I have to write an email that advises to resync the files. I always spell it resink at first and then I can never remember the correct spelling.

No that's just Steam looks like these days. See they pivoted to being a low resolution image host.

The old members are in government now. They really don't need him anymore.

Imagine this being your red line. Your totally prepared to work at Facebook, because there's absolutely nothing dodgy about that, but suddenly his transphobia is a problem.

That's because adults are more imaginative. My cousin who's a total dick now as an adult, was also a total dick as a kid. He just was easier to deal with because his dickness was less sophisticated.
