From free speech scandals and massive layoffs to a discrimination lawsuit: A history of Blizzard's recent controversies and major departures.

Yes, and q-tips aren’t for cleaning your ears.
just because of a position they took on the issue nearly 10 years ago.
I laughed because I also frequently make the mistake of calling the mid 00's "ten years ago".

Cloud Suspend and Resume
Honestly, I might be even more excited about this feature than I am about the Steam Deck. I have a preorder for an SD, but the prospect of having suspend and resume built in to PC games so that I don't have to boot through splash screens, go through menus, etc. would be a huge improvement for me. A lot of times I don't bother firing up a game if I only have 15-20 min to kill, mostly because it'll take me at least a few minutes to get it started and then I need to be sure to shut it down when I'm done gracefully. Add on top of that the idea of cloud-syncing those suspend states between devices? Very exciting!
Triad/Inversion Practice Tool
I've been trying to get a lot better at comping and improvising, and one of the things I put together to help was this tool that lets you toggle on certain chords (I,IV,V, etc) in given keys and get color-coded fretboard maps for all the inversions. There's also the ability to add "shadow realm" chords (parallel key) for spicy non-diatonic flavors. I usually practice using this to just throw up a random progression and try to bang something out up and down the neck, as well as doing things like running through cycle of 4ths to hit a bunch of different keys and inversions.
Hopefully some folks here will find it helpful!
Any active players?
I'm hoping to find folks willing to hop on and play some netrunner casually on jinteki.net – if you're interested hit me up here or at [email protected]
