Hey OP you forgot to include the Silksong announcement that definitely totally happened 🤡

Naive, perhaps, but if a company advertises a service, they better fucking deliver on that service. Sure, I wouldn’t store all of my important documents solely on a cloud service either, but let’s not victim blame the guy here who paid for a service and was not given that service. Google’s Enterprise plan promised unlimited data; whether that’s 10 GB or 200 TB, that’s not for us nor Google to judge. Unlimited means unlimited. And in an article linked in the OP, even customer service seemed to assure them that it was indeed unlimited, with no cap. And then pulled the rug.

And on top of that, according to the article, Google emailed them saying their account would be in “read-only” mode, as in, they could download the files but not upload any. Which is fine enough-- until Google contacted them saying they were using too much space and their files would all be deleted. Space that, again, was originally unlimited.

Judge the guy all you want, but don’t blame him. Fuck Google, full stop.

Not that I don’t believe you, but do you have a source for that?

I don’t think Roger Craig Smith is bad, and I think it works well for the modern Boost era. Being said, Ryan Drummond will always be my Sonic.

Unfortunately, it seems Wario got the short end of the stick. Wario’s voice in the new WarioWare trailer is very noticeably different.

Previously, I had never ever seen a movie in theaters twice. If I had seen a movie once and wanted to watch it again, I could wait to buy it for myself. It just didn’t ever make much sense to me as to why anyone would watch the same movie multiple times in like a one-month time span.

And then Everything Everywhere All At Once came out, and I saw it again the week after I saw it the first time, and then I understood. What a fantastic movie.

This didn’t read like an ad at all. I don’t think the company would want to push the fact that they can generate a burning world trade center or epstein’s island.

the urge to downvote this is very strong, well done

okbuddyphd, shittymobilegameads, pizzacrimes, garfieldwithoutgarfield, just all the really stupid obscure ones that give me a chuckle browsing through.

This is all absurd, obviously, but:

The new subscription can be stacked with a Plus, Gold or Platinum subscription for access to more features, the company notes.

$499 and you don’t even get everything there is to get? You still have to pay for more? What in the fuck?

I’ve seen that a couple times before, I think something just didn’t federate properly.

THE THOUSAND YEAR DOOR HD AAAAAAAAAA

Quite a lot to read in that library.

My expectations were low, but holy shit.

Very, very flat people open a very, very old door.

The kid’s name? Little Bobby Tables.

Yeah, and it’s not even subtle to boot. If they had done it this past April Fool’s day after making an API announcement at the beginning of the calendar year, they might have had a smidge of plausible deniability. But now, three weeks after the beginning of some of their most controversial changes yet, on a random mid-July week, it’s an incredibly obvious drive to boost engagement, from both the current userbase and perhaps even a boost from the users who left to return to place a “fuck /u/spez”.

I don’t even understand how this gets greenlit. I mean, it’s definitely going to work, their engagement for the next week will be a YTD record without a doubt. But this just feels so mustache-twirlingly evil.

I know I’m gonna sound like a total knob, but I didn’t even like the idea of a second place. Every April Fool’s event was unique and treasured-- Reddit mold, orangered vs periwinkle, Robin, even 2nd or circle for as bad as it was. Place 2017 (or was it 2016?) was obviously the best April Fool’s ever, and part of its treasure was its temporary nature. Doing place again in 2022 just felt wrong to me. Not that I didn’t enjoy it, but this time around it felt like it was almost undermining the first one, and with talks of doing place again the next year or every X years just felt so corporate and faceless among a new reddit that was running out of ideas.

And now here we are. They’re not just running out of ideas, they’re running the site into the ground and dangling a carrot in front of users like, “hey, didn’t you all like place the last two times? Here it is yet again!”

niche subs or communities that aren’t built up here

Oh how I wish someone would make a shittymobilegameads community.

…or for me to get the willpower and motivation to do it myself.
