It makes more sense when we assume it’s software development terminology instead. Alpha means the software is immature and full of issues.

I am a release candidate male.

We are our own devils and we make this world our hell.

The latest update broke ipv4 on my ThinkPad, ipv6 works just fine. How is that even possible?

Unfortunately, Fairphone is not available in my country. I’d buy it in a heartbeat if it was :(

I feel the same. I think they got to a point where there’s nothing else left to improve, no interesting features to add.

The only feature I am really looking forward to is the return of removable batteries.

Careful! Last time I sarcastically posted a stupid AI idea, within minutes a bunch of venture capitalists tracked me down, broke down my door and threw money at me non stop for hours.

I had a professor who kept all the materials from the books that he wrote on his website. He was cool with students printing the html pages and bringing it to class.

There are some modders experimenting with eGPUs on the Deck, but it’s really impractical. The Deck USB-C connector isn’t powerful enough to handle an external GPU and the OS doesn’t support it.

Valve would need to release new hardware for it to be feasible.

From my experience working for a management consulting firm. It’s more like everyone knows what the problems are and how to fix them, but they are too scared of screwing up to do something about it.

So they hire a consultancy company to tell them what they already knew and take the blame if something goes wrong.

“No one ever gets fired for hiring McKinsey”

I was in a similar situation. A few weeks after I got hired, the project I was hired for was cancelled, so they “benched” me.

I spent three months being paid to do whatever I wanted, didn’t even need to go to the office. It was nice at first, but I felt useless and miserable after a couple of months.

This made me understand why some people keep working long after they have enough to retire.

Smartphones. Most people don’t need to buy the latest and greatest iPhone every year.

You can get that yellow cassava in any supermarket here in Brazil. I like making soup with it.

I wonder why it’s rare everywhere else, it’s so much more delicious than potatoes and other types of cassava.

That’s a fair point. Just like Malenia being hidden away behind multiple layers of secrets. It’s content made only for the hardest of the hardcore fans.

That’s fair. I hope they tone down the difficult in the sequel. I was able to get through the base game, but the extra content is just way too difficult.

You should check out Dead Space 3 co-op mode. It’s basically what you described here.
