DesertIslandHermit posted:lmao to learning both of these today There's a good podcast episode about the Blockbuster collapse. The CEO was a goddamn idiot, making $50 million a year with a contract clause that they had to give him $100 million to fire him so he functionally couldn't be fired. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/blockbuster-e30-algorithm-and-blues/id1622515746?i=1000623521835 One of their longest lasting franchisees, who held out wayyyyyyyy longer than most others, attributed his success to never participating in any of the hair-brained schemes from the national office and just focusing on renting movies as quickly as possible.

Beached Whale posted:Diablo had record sales lol The main problem with Blizzard titles is that people will hungrily belly up to the trough expecting the Blizzard in their memory to produce the kind of game they remember, they fork over premium prices for the Blizzard Experience, and then they get poo poo on. I keep hoping that the next game will be the one that finally breaks the market, and I continue to be disappointed.

Twerk from Home posted:Costco is for higher income people and their hotdogs are still much more expensive than cooking a pack of hotdogs at home yourself. costco pays for itself, especially if you get the credit card they advertise to all members which gets you 5% back on stuff you buy at costco the $1.50 hotdog+soda is kitsch americana and also tasty
