It's funny to me that this popped up on my timeline next to the thread about the genAI game with the evocative title and I seriously couldn't tell if this is about the same topic

I actually found a pdf of the bargaining agreement. Its in article 22. static1.squarespace.com/static/66c91... (This seems to be an unsigned version, cannot verify if it matches the one signed)
Article 22 - STORE RELOCATION AND/OR CLOSING
A. In the event that Towson Store #R063 relocates within a 50 mile radius of its current
location, the Employer agrees to comply with all legal requirements regarding the
effects of its decision under the National Labor Relations Act ("the Act").
B. In the event that Towson Store #R063 closes, for any new store that opens within a
50 mile radius of its current location within 18 months of the closure, the Employer
will offer all prior Towson bargaining unit members who qualify the opportunity for
employment prior to hiring external employees.
C. If a prior Towson bargaining unit member was subject to a formal Misconduct or
Documented Coaching at the time Towson Store #R063 closed or relocated, that
discipline will remain in place for that employee at the new location

Would you like details on the gameplay or story?"
Q: "Yes please"

I wonder if this GW cluster can compete with S3 (This is way too in depth nerdy and specific, I'm so sorry)
Pictures of The Colonel AI, an agent of the "GW" super ai cluster from the game "Metal Gear Solid 2",infected with a Virus from the S3 plan (a plot point if said game). S3 also matches the name of paid plans to use Amazon data centers. All of these acronyms matching current tech are either coincidental or prophetic, at this point i simply don't know anymore.

Man i hate this kind of widget in articles and always wonder if the media serving this is in cahoots with the social media platform. Yes my privacy settings forbid inlining this for good reason, but why don't you give me a link to actually click and see the content then?!

#30daysofvideogames Day 7: Fave MMO "Secret World" Dunno about @secretworldlegends.bsky.social, but OG back then was lenient towards casual players (<3), looked good, had an awesome world, was my first real ARG (even their promos and presskit was amazing in that regard) with really cool puzzles

#30daysofvideogames Day 6: Best Worldbuilding *recently "The Life and Suffering of Sir Brante" I rarely want to replay a game and if so mostly for story outcomes. This made me want to do it just to see and learn more aspects of its world cleverly hidden between layers political and religious agenda

#30daysofvideogames Day 5: Deserved Remake Troubled topic - if I liked it a lot, it probably won't need a remake (for me). Not a big proponent of Remakes in general. Stuff I'd pick already got some in some form. But they give good exposure, so I'd pick "Alundra 2"

#30daysofvideogames ⏩ Day 2: Most Hours Since I was a very late Steam-bloomer and a console kid there's no records. This time I'll just guess Metal Gear Solid 2 as I have >350hrs on MGSV but definitely enjoyed 2 way more and had more time back then. Roleplayed as a guard a lot in that one section

#30daysofvideogames Day 1: First Game Hard to say TBH, but it likely was Wings of Fury in a stuffy little room on my cousins Amiga (without knowing what an Amiga was). I was maybe 5? I distinctly remember botching 90% of starting/landing and crashing into palm trees. What? Age Ratings? Whats that?
