Considering the alpha wolf myth originates from observing a stressed out wolf population in captivity, unable to live out their fulfilling wolfy lives, the emergence of purported “alpha males” is an oddly appropriate indicator of what three decades of neoliberalism has done to our wellbeing.

Don’t get yourself an alpha male, get yourself a 1.0.4-ubuntu3 male.
Can I get an arch femboy?
Always has been.

I thought they were all femboiz. Only Debian is matrimonious.
Yeah! Gotta find those Long Term Stable (LTSl life partners!

idk man I say just push it to production anyway
You must have been in charge when I was built. I’ve still got security issues, memory leaks, and there’s a major known issue where under certain conditions I continue to work but stop providing any feedback or messaging.
If you could have your team at least address the resource management issue I’d be grateful.
It’s a common problem with underfunded development. Though the lead devs make a big difference too.
Ugh, I am not looking forward to sweaty meatheads calling themselves “Golden Masters”…
What’s beta then? Be gentle on the product, working out all the kinks.
More stable, has all the required features, but can break down without warning with cryptic messages about what’s wrong. Needs a little more testing and development before moving into the real world. So basically…teenagers.
Followed by a Release Candidate - a beta build that got labeled differently because management said it was time to wrap up development and ship it
This is how I feel every time I see an overpowered “prototype” weapon in a video game that works better than the standard version.
I assume the excuse usually is that the prototype was unstable, so they had to ‘tone it down’. But of course, you as the awesome hero man can control it!
It needs a flaw to be fun; there has to be a problem that made it unfit for production and the solution lowered the power. Too inefficient, too inaccurate, too big, too unsafe, too unreliable. Make it a fun thing the player can play around so it’s a sidegrade rather than an upgrade

Agreed!
There’s is a bit of clever game design in Deep Rock Galactic, which I hope catches on:
The default load out for new players is almost unarguably the best possible load-out, for that class, in the game.
As players progress, they can unlock more entertaining while objectively worse equipment, to amuse and challenge themselves.
And, I mean, of course we do. It’s hilarious because some truly challenging gameplay emerges.
And when it’s kicking my butt, I tend tealize I chose that challenge for myself. I had the option to bring the good equipment that I started with, after all.
And it puts new players on more even footing with veterans. I tend to make easy missions with newbie friends harder on myself by bringing truly silly equipment load outs. It usually turns out fine, and when it goes badly for me, they feel good for rescuing a veteran. Or it goes sideways and I apologize and make slightly better equip choices for the next try.

Rock and stone!
If you don’t rock and stone, you ain’t coming home.
What about Omega males?
Don’t forget, you can name your release versions, even alphas. “Babydick,” “Cuntosaurus” and “PhatTwat” are good options here
My core dumps are the worst.
i will never hear “alpha male” the same from now on.
but you are right!😂
Release Males rise up
RTM males anywhere?
… eww
damn bleeding edge males
FULL release 💪🏻
And the original concept, as it pertains to wolves, is evidently not a thing. So if we’re just saying things, the software metaphor is as good as any other.
talkin shit is all most people ever do
this is sigma male propaganda
