Ah yes, you accepted work in PALANTIR FFS. If you seen lotr even ONCE you know how dangerous it is to use, even if you don't understand the metaphor.
Fully agree but kind of a side note,
I’ve seen lotr several times and had no ideal the name was from that until people pointed it out.
Accepts job for Luciferia, manufacturer of the Orphan Crusher 3000, then complains they had no idea it was an evil company.
You've got to understand though, Luciferia is a company that's going places. Obviously people are going to want to work there when you see all the cutting edge research they're doing. I mean they literally just built the first actual Torment Nexus... it used to only be purely science-fiction, like in that book "Don't create the Torment Nexus" but they managed to make it a reality! Isn't that incredible?
