Gaming, wrestling and whatever else looks interesting. The Witness is the greatest game ever. Tell me why you agree or why you don't yet understand it.
This took me SO LONG to make but it's so worth it. I love how it turned out and it challenged me a LOT for my editing skills, I hope you all like it! Lots of attention to detail and a love letter to DiRT 2 having the best menus of all time, bar none.
See you in Horizon!🗻🇯🇵🎆❤️🔥
First scheme on track! Proud of how this turned out. Seeing something you designed and worked on hit the track, it’s the dream. Super grateful for the opportunity.
@MTGSecretLair Better idea: Go back to print on demand for a few days with increased price for each quantity you purchase after the first. So EVERYONE can get it for $10, get a backup copy for $20, pay $30 for the third copy and so on. Still provides FOMO buys and scalpers make you more money.
@MTGSecretLair Absolutely nobody likes this broken system (except maybe scalpers). Stop shitting all over your customers every time you do a drop and just go back to print on demand. I hope @Hasbro gets destroyed in that lawsuit for doing anti consumer things like this.
Last quarter I rolled out Microsoft Copilot to 4,000 employees.
$30 per seat per month.
$1.4 million annually.
I called it "digital transformation."
The board loved that phrase.
They approved it in eleven minutes.
No one asked what it would actually do.
Including me.
I told everyone it would "10x productivity."
That's not a real number.
But it sounds like one.
HR asked how we'd measure the 10x.
I said we'd "leverage analytics dashboards."
They stopped asking.
Three months later I checked the usage reports.
47 people had opened it.
12 had used it more than once.
One of them was me.
I used it to summarize an email I could have read in 30 seconds.
It took 45 seconds.
Plus the time it took to fix the hallucinations.
But I called it a "pilot success."
Success means the pilot didn't visibly fail.
The CFO asked about ROI.
I showed him a graph.
The graph went up and to the right.
It measured "AI enablement."
I made that metric up.
He nodded approvingly.
We're "AI-enabled" now.
I don't know what that means.
But it's in our investor deck.
A senior developer asked why we didn't use Claude or ChatGPT.
I said we needed "enterprise-grade security."
He asked what that meant.
I said "compliance."
He asked which compliance.
I said "all of them."
He looked skeptical.
I scheduled him for a "career development conversation."
He stopped asking questions.
Microsoft sent a case study team.
They wanted to feature us as a success story.
I told them we "saved 40,000 hours."
I calculated that number by multiplying employees by a number I made up.
They didn't verify it.
They never do.
Now we're on Microsoft's website.
"Global enterprise achieves 40,000 hours of productivity gains with Copilot."
The CEO shared it on LinkedIn.
He got 3,000 likes.
He's never used Copilot.
None of the executives have.
We have an exemption.
"Strategic focus requires minimal digital distraction."
I wrote that policy.
The licenses renew next month.
I'm requesting an expansion.
5,000 more seats.
We haven't used the first 4,000.
But this time we'll "drive adoption."
Adoption means mandatory training.
Training means a 45-minute webinar no one watches.
But completion will be tracked.
Completion is a metric.
Metrics go in dashboards.
Dashboards go in board presentations.
Board presentations get me promoted.
I'll be SVP by Q3.
I still don't know what Copilot does.
But I know what it's for.
It's for showing we're "investing in AI."
Investment means spending.
Spending means commitment.
Commitment means we're serious about the future.
The future is whatever I say it is.
As long as the graph goes up and to the right.
Super Sub strikes again! Top 5 for the 21 team! One step closer to qualifying for Indy!
Thanks Blake for letting me in again, thanks Alfred for letting me run the 21 this week, and thanks Dustin for excellent fuel numbers! Lets go! :)
@MTGSecretLair What a shame. My 9-5 job made me 5 minutes late to the queue. Guess that's another $40 @Hasbro won't see from me because they still haven't realized they'd make more money doing print on demand. Oh well I'll just proxy it.
It's @HTLRacingLeague Cup Series Night in America tonight! The 7th HTL Daytona 500 is tonight, and we'll be live at 8:00 pm ET/5:00 pm PT to cover the start of the 7th HTL Cup Series season. Join us!

@ABN_Studios That beauty is staying in the garage for one more week and we're starting Daytona from the back as we're going to Monday Night Raw tonight!
While we know a lot about what's about to go down tonight, we don't know what everyone's cars are going to look like. Maybe Alfred Denney is running this tonight as he gets ready to attempt to get his first Cup Series win in his 120th career start.
Or maybe he runs something different, couldn't tell ya. We're just trying to promote the field before tonight.
