This was amazing. ARC Raiders in solo, in a skyscraper, a whole bunch of solo players fighting off a leaper jumping up at us.

The state of some websites... 😆

Made funnier by Imgur being blocked in the UK.

Free PR tip: your fancy email backgrounds may look cool, but they can often end up like this.

Stick to plain colours. Save the flashy stuff for including in the main body of the email, not the background.
I have no idea what they're trying to say in the PR email as the background makes the text unreadable

Whew. This is why there's a fair amount of sites genuinely scared to say a bad thing. If you're not the likes of The Verge or IGN massive, it could destroy you if you dare to be honest.
"I wrote that no one should buy MSI and Intel’s original handheld gaming PC. I literally called it an embarrassment, and the company blacklisted me after that. MSI stopped pitching me news, and stopped answering my emails, even after the company began to write off its dud of a handheld." - The Verge

An email I received “My name is Joash, and we would like to make an offer to acquire gamingonlinux.com. We have successfully acquired dozens of content sites for our client, who has asked us to submit a purchase offer for gamingonlinux.com. We are prepared to make a strong all-cash offer, with no earn-out, and we would retain the existing team. Would you like to know who the buyer is?”

Me additionally: I wonder if they're being ethical about it, training it just on their own data or something.

Uh...oh 🙃

They're fully aware.
