Is she deemed as a contractor? Does the company file her taxes? Being paid or not paid based on outcome is usually somwthing i see on contracts which companies force people to become to skirt labour laws and make payment based on ourcome instead of hours.

This changes the answer for you, because the reason they do this is it puts the onus on you to make everyrhibg perfect becayse they are paying for a piece of work.

There are indeed laws that punish companies that do this however but is based on location and all that (fwiw im not a lawyer)

And even if it was true, it would only be for now. It only takes one government at any time in the future.

Aw that sucks

This application looks fine to me.

Clearly labeled sections.

Local on one side, remote on the other

Thats how you know its old. Its not caked full of ads, insanely locked down, and trying yo sell you a subscription service.

Happens in other countries too unfortunately, when you hear politicians say “stop buying avacado and toast” or “people are buying too many coffees” and they dont realise theyre talking about the above average income earners not the desperately poor.

Even better. Nom nom nom.

Lol i do this when the pm wants to note me down as “develor lead” on change requests, and i force him to change it to “developer enthusiast” instead lol i aint leading nothing.

Of course, besides the people who fall for the basic “VPN are some magic security device” most people (in particular those that know what they’re getting) always looks for the same thing “which one can I actually trust”.

Even if it’s not government owned you have no idea whose keeping logs, sharing data etc.

So you can really only base your trust on whether the company has come up to any issues with the government and have refused, or has run for a number of years and provide a positive track record. With the changing of laws and how companies work, you also need to regularly check that your they stay respecting privacy and security.

For what it’s worth, a VPN company worth is if it private, security and stands up to scrutiny. The moment trust is lost, the company is meaningless. So that’s something for those that are long lasting.

Just a heads up OP worth checking your state, country or councils government websites that note about electricity. Some of them give free power/watt checkers to help people reduce their electricity usage.

Lol you can see my place.

Interesting but I do think things are a little different:

• A lot of people seem to be commenting about how a remaster is about changing atmosphere or visual changes. And I agree with you. But OP is asking specifically about games with the quote “for modern audiences” in the game and that quote is not added for the visual or control or minor game design changes, but instead specifically to tell you it’s removed the “isms” out.

• I think your point about isms makes sense, it’s just that I’m of the opposing view. That I think the “isms” have been removed out is like censoring a painting or movie. Sure it’s easier to digest, but what made the media so poignant is sometimes the rawity of it.

I guess I don’t think you’re wrong, just that I think it takes away from the original media for the only reason that “it sells more if we can widen the audience”.

For me the ideal would be you could choose between the two. How the game was originally made but with the updated graphics/control/design. Or the new one that removes any isms to placate people’s sensibilities.

I don’t think however my preference would happen because it goes against the idea of “hay we can sell more if we tell everyone we removed everything controversial about the game”. So I guess your idea solution is probably the best middle ground :)

Definitely for me big alarm bells.

Look a remaster should or could have obvious upgrades, sometimes it’s visuals, videos, style, controls etc. that to me is good.

But that quote specifically tells me “the game has been changed for current day sensibilities” and I hate that. I feel it takes away from what the original had in mind, for good or bad.

I understand that many media have been racist/misogynist/ageist and accept that it was a product of its time. But I don’t think it does it any good to essentially pretend that it didn’t happen and I feel we’re just pretending it isn’t what it truly is when it’s changed.

I do think remakes are different however. I feel they are taking the idea of the original but redesigning it in a way that the new designers for see.

BUT the fact is, that quote is only ever seen on media that hides the past, not remakes the future.

Does anyone remember when something like this actually happened? Maybe it’s the Mandela effect but U sweat at one stage a whole heap of sites were using black/dark mode to save the planet

I would return 5 Skyrim remakes for just 1 remake of oblivion or Morrowing. Does a great disservice that those games a regulated to past consoles.

This is the typical case I think too. Usually so that nurse charts it straight away. This is so that another nurse wont give the same pill/dose during shift changes and so that if something happens and a doctor needs to administer alternative medication, they know what’s in the patients system already.

I’ve never heard of a nurse having to sit there waiting for the patient to randomly choose a time to take it.

The best debugger is a good night sleep.

Yeah they did this with Winnie the Pooh and afaik it wasn’t great. I get the idea, but lacks creativity if “it’s just opposite” is your draw card.
