Why not just do the job correctly in the first place? Honestly this sounds like fucking exhausting busywork.
In 2010 the entire office shut down, people were projecting games on sheets hung up in the cafeteria, two of my engineers were dutch so the whole team went to go watch one of the games to support them, and nobody even thought about trying to stop it.
It was a multinational company and it gave everybody something to talk about and even the people who didn’t care about the games often went along for the drama.
And that’s dead dead dead.
My kid asked me yesterday “why does everything just keep getting shittier?”
I used to work at Google before it sucked and this was exactly the kind of thing the search team used to build info boxes for, just cause they knew people would want to know.
Like, there was a time when that company genuinely wanted to be helpful and informative.
I still have room in my heart to believe that people are still enthusiastic soccer fans, even if I’m not any more.
But yeah could also just be monetization.
That thing does look like a good time.
The World Cup used to be something that people actually looked forward to with a kind of simple joy. Before, say, 2018, this kind of countdown would have been useful information to me.
I think this is someone who misread the mood of their users to FIFA not paid placement.
Why would FIFA give a shit about Firefox users anyway? 😆
And if you’re cranky “stop being a bear”
We had only hens, and the older one who was easing off laying started getting roosterish, the first time she charged me with wings spread and pecked my foot for picking up one of the other birds I was very confused.

Do we know who the artist is?
That hasn’t been my experience but I understand the concern
Therapy allowed me to let my guard down enough to see who I really am. That was pretty invaluable. Not easy or fun, but worth.

(I’m a spoiled man in my 50s with an office)
No it doesn’t!
Lalalalalalalaaaaa can’t hear you!
I can finally fire everybody who ever said no to me!
