Microsoft just open-sourced DOS 4 https://t.co/iOeLUVfVok (as well a release of beta binaries, disk images, and PDFs from @rozzie's archives!) (but who did the PR?!) pic.twitter.com/g3VyOCsT40

There was no way we could fit the whole map of gta3 in PS2 memory. Streaming involves loading models from the DVD as the player moves around. This was the hardest technical challenge during the development of gta3 and was coded by Adam Fowler.

I thought that was pretty neat. Also a Burnout 3 dev showed up ( )

After careful consideration over the last year, we at Blizzard have made the decision not to hold BlizzCon in 2024. This decision was not made lightly as BlizzCon remains a very special event for all of us, and we know many of you look forward to it. While we're approaching this year differently and as we have explored different event formats in the past, rest assured that we are just as excited as ever to bring BlizzCon back in future years.
Over the next few months, we'll be sharing more details about our launches coming later this year, including World of Warcraft: The War Within and Diablo IV's first expansion, Vessel of Hatred. To celebrate these upcoming releases and to bring our communities together in new and special ways, we will soon share some exciting plans for other industry trade shows and conventions like Gamescom. We can't wait to tell you more about those plans soon. We're also looking forward to the Overwatch Champions Series' stops at both Dreamhack Dallas and Dreamhack Stockholm. And we're thrilled to be planning multiple, global, in-person events to commemorate the 30th anniversary of Warcraft, which will be held in addition to the in-game celebrations across our Warcraft games throughout 2024. While these events are distinct from BlizzCon, we're harnessing all of our creativity and imagination to ensure that they carry the same spirit of celebration and togetherness.
Our hope is that these experiences โ alongside several live-streamed industry events where we'll keep you up to date with what's happening in our game universes โ will capture the essence of what makes the Blizzard community so special.
No matter how you choose to connect with us at these events this year โ whether it be in person or virtually โ we can't wait to see you there!
My guess that it's a combination of low interest, having nothing to show, and microsoft not liking live events, even though it's the 20th anniversary of WoW. I haven't been excited for a Blizzard release since Overwatch anyway.

I applied for 20 jobs at Indian-owned/Indian staffed companies. Once with a "white" name, then a second time with a Punjabi name.
100% of my applications with a white name were completely ignored.
More than 60% of my identical applications with a Punjabi name received a response, including some interview offers.
If Canadians hate ray-cism so much, then why are we mass importing a large number of people who only want to work with their own caste?
A Lotta mad Indians in the comments lmaoo - pinkpantherlean
Am indian and let me tell you, being indian is actually a great thing. ...suck my peepee op suck my peepee - Disastrous-Swan2733
Hired an HR person of Indian background at our company. The only people she hires are East Indians. Not one white person in the two years she's been in the job. - SplashInkster
I've been having the same issue here in Surrey BC. At the warehouse I worked they hired an Indian manager. After that all the white ppl were fired and replaced with Indians. Then he moved my shift from the morning to graveyards which the company knows I can't do because I take care of my disabled brother after work so I was forced to quit. Now I have been unemployed for a year because the mass majority of surrey consists of Indians who run all the business and only hire their own ppl. - Life\_Patience\_6751
People out here asking for proof like they haven't been to a Tim Hortons, Walmart, etc. lately. And then calling you ray-cist for pointing out ray-cism? - New-Midnight-7767
Ever walk into a Home Depot or Lowes that has an Indian store manager ? Literally ALL THE FKN STAFF are Indians. It's disgusting the obvious ray-cism. I almost complain to corporate when I fill out the review on the receipt, and ya they apparently don't give a shit. - Unusual\_Eggplant\_642
8% of the population, yet 100% of the employees at a store. Totally normal. Nothing to see here... I have been complaining about this for a very long time. If Demographic A makes up... 3% of the population of your town.... but that demographic is somehow 50 of the 60 employees working at a single business, then there is a reason for that. And that reason is ray-cism. (And you know it's doubly true when you point out this absurd statistical anomaly and are instead called ray-cist yourself.) - OldManSyndrome
Canadians have fetishized diversity and have been the most malleable population when it comes to having any identity - BigDinkie
Brother, as an Indian, let me tell you... They are ray-cist, s*x-ist and while they may be hospitable and nice, they're extremely ray-cist. As a darker skinned Indian, these Punjabis are ray-cist towards me. - CashBitter9664
This is just the start. I was warned before coming here, this is one aspect I hate in Dubai. Once they get to higher management, that's it - railfe
At my last work I hired some Indian guys they were great I really enjoyed working with them, they were from the south and one time I had a guy in for an interview and they noticed he was from the north they basically told me if I hire him they'll quit - Additional-Rhubarb-8

Also I guess this is what started it?
They were roasting him in the replies. Some are skeptical that Colombia and USC students and NGOs who are pro-Palestine are actually certified MAGA Patriots
Apparently, coming down from whatever he was doing at 2:30pm on a Wednesday he decided that maybe his tweet was incoherent nonsense; Scrubbing his account and leaving the people of twitter to wonder why
Currently, twitter is still Sess-less. https://twitter.com/adamsessler yet the dunking continues

Once again the feds show how much they hate the free market and what lengths they will go too in preventing anyone from enriching themselves.
Inside a garage in an established Edmonton neighbourhood, animals were being slaughtered and the meat was advertised for sale to consumers, a CBC News investigation has learned.
There is no free market in canada. Of course the CBC tries to smear the hard working immigrant

A.I. USED TO FRAME WHITE PRINCIPAL:

Pikesville High principal Eric Eiswert was CAUGHT on tape having a racist rant.
People called for him to lose his job.
The only problem?
The whole recording was AI-generated.

So, tomorrow will see @HumzaYousaf stepping down and @neilcgray being the SNP choice to replace him. You heard it here first!
— Murdo Fraser (@murdo_fraser) April 25, 2024
Or maybe not
/r/Scotland seem to have completely turned on the SNP at this point
For context the National is the paper for Scottish independence fanatics
He probably won't have much of a choice in the matter though
Humza just essentially kicked the Greens out of Scottish government too so I'm sure they'll all be super keen to keep him in power
The MSP who he's relying on left the party due to their policies too
