An older version of the sins had despair/melancholy and vanity/vainglory. I think Sloth wasn’t in the list at the time tho…

I’m not in tech anymore but must comment that I work at a major company in a dynamic field with young, ultra-qualified, ultra-smart personnel that is not horribly computer-unsavvy but I still think I’m the only one in the whole company who opens IT support tickets via a system instead of caling, even though IT pushes the system and even though you get good support via the system and horrible people by calling

Yeah OP needs to spend more time with poor people. People are no better than billionaires on average, billionaires just get all the media attention.

You can keep your fake-ass CGI gunshots to yourself, I will keep only watching movies where all deaths are real

Yeah at least in theory lol, some of those countries aren’t even very religious, would expect looser rules on this

There’s no way this shit is tax optimal, so many companies with super-specific purposes… unless it’s all to trigger specific tax regimes. Maybe they should simplify the corporate structure instead of axing creative staff they clearly need

Comics being super interconnected in big events is indeed not a Disney invention, and it makes sense for movies to follow that format. BUT both comics and the MCU initial phases only worked out because the heroes’ standalone comics/movies stood on their own feet. Disney fucked up when they started making interconnected movies without setup (Eternals, I liked it but no one else did) or making standalone hero movies that are clearly just there for a future mash-up (compare recent movies to first Iron Man or first two Captain America movies). Doesn’t help either that repeating the same formula for new hero movies over and over gets boring with time and today’s Disney (and overall mainstream movie market) is deathly afraid of creativity. When was the last time you saw a movie that isn’t a remake/sequel, adaptation, or documentary?

This literally looks more interesting than both actual movies

Yeah this, mainstream big players in financial markets already figured out crypto is useless, so IT firms switched to selling AI to corporates instead.

The way he has been talking about competition makes it look like he has no idea what he is doing and is insecure about it. Even from a pure money-making standpoint, whoever is funding that needs to replace the CEO (assuming the CEO has no control).
