Just a heads up that these will come from Henley Wing.

Fifteen minutes after every game a condensed version of the games is posted on the NFL's YouTube channel. Most sports do this now.

Don't pay a premium for a McDonalds French fry.

My favorite was Le Cercle Rouge. Robert Evans supposedly was pushing for him to play Michael in the Godfather.

Before the streaming boom I would've gone through the ripping and having a library to maintain, but after streaming I feel stuffed and don't care anymore. Nothing that is being made now or for the last couple of years I care about. You destroyed and watered down every IP and you're back to your dirty tricks again. It's too bad, but for a while there was peace. Me personally, I've moved on with my life.

Every time IBM's name gets mentioned the FAANG-bangers bring up the Holocaust and with good reason. But the more that comes out, the more we see just how dirty and evil modern big tech as a whole is. It's just the tip of the iceberg.

Beware those telling you what you want to hear.

I hate the fact that Xbox One killed Xbox's momentum so much that people are dismissing or not recognizing some of the things that Xbox has going for it right now with Xbox GamePass and cloud gaming. This is a transitional generation, but Xbox is positioned a lot better than most people seem to understand if they only travel in the areas where console wars is the religion of the day again.

I've been replaying Halo 1 & 2 again and just remembering the infancy of console online gaming and how fun it was as compared today were its either absolute silence or mute worthy trash.

I went full streaming in 2007 and I always knew that it would become this. So I made a rule that when Netflix got ads I'd bail on streaming altogether. I've been digital only for video games for a few generations so just picked a video ecosystem and buy content when it's at its cheapest. I'm not playing this game where my collection requires extra time and maintenance. If a company takes a license away then the won't get anymore money from me. There are a few video game companies that will never get money from me ever again. They need my money more than I need to give it to them.

One non tech sales job I worked when the Regional Manager was someone that drove sports cars then the managers below all went out and bought sports cars. When the Regional Manager got promoted and was replaced by someone who drove an electric car they all went out and bought electric cars. Getting promotions is rarely about the work, they can always find ten idiots like me to do the work.

The jokes on them. The generations are getting smaller and smaller. The lack of junior roles is making that pool even smaller. A giant bubble is forming. They spent the last 5 years talking about diversity and how great it is and how it makes better teams. Now every job is 5+ YOE. Do as I say, not as I do tech.

The greenest car is keeping the car you have for as long as possible. Then replacing it with a used car. You could even get a bumper sticker that says "Rescue Driver" or "Who saved Who?" with a icon of a car if it would make you feel superior to the rest of the drivers on the road.
