I’ve met people who hold the same opinions and express themselves in exactly the same way. Simultaneously denying that something is said while also recognising his tendency to twist things.

So I wasn’t giving the benefit of the doubt. Sarcasm doesn’t work on the internet if there’s real people out there saying the exact same thing.

But yeah in hindsight, hopefully that was just that.

This doesn’t really answer any of the questions, but again, I’m not going to hold you accountable for their actions. Thanks for trying, at least.

He never said that, stop lying on the internet

Transcript:

You know, I’m automatically attracted to beautiful — I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything.

Bush: Whatever you want.

Trump: Grab ’em by the pussy. You can do anything.

He lives rent free in your head

Commenting about something Trump said under an article about something Trump said is quite relevant. In your own confident words: stop lying on the internet.

Yup, that’s how niche the Steam Deck is at the moment. It’s ~37% of 2% of all Steam users.

Then again the user numbers on Steam are insane. Would be nice to compare it per region.

Isn’t it potentially a bit self defeating for them to close themselves off in a closed forum?

Not when that closed forum acts like a circlejerking echo chamber where their cult leader can spew whatever he wants without consequences.

I won’t shoot the messenger, but I need to know: what is the “institutionalized sex trafficking” you are referring to and how does it fit with being an important issue when you look at Trump vs Harris?

Only one of them is in pictures with Epstein for a start. So how do they flip that around? Or are we talking Q stuff like pizzagate?

Also important to know: why would Harris be the largest potential obstacle to be capable of addressing it?

I’ve found the perfect method to take a break from Factorio is to apply Satisfactory and a dash of Techtonica.

I say break, because there’s no stopping Factorio. I’m afraid it’s chronic.

As a moderator and admin for countless Discord communities, yeah, I’ve seen some vile shit.

Pretending that it doesn’t have an impact doesn’t help in the long run. Secondary Trauma is a thing. Create a workflow to distance yourself from the content, plan breaks, and please talk to someone (qualified) about it.

Unearth that trauma from the 80s

you bastard, I was blissfully unaware

I think the problem is that people think the memes are created by the person uploading, as if they chose to censor it.

Someone is just sharing a funny they saw on Instagram, there’s not much more to it.

Epic timing, I want to dive in and see if I can mirror setting up Discord communities in the most painless way possible. This seems to be a great step in the right direction. Imagine a place… where you get the best of both worlds and we can leave Discord behind.

Listen I love NMS for what it has become, but of course they would say that. They know that (the veil of) personal investment in their userbase’s woes is good marketing. What would the answer otherwise be? “fuck your save, start over”?

And if they can’t fix it, they can at least say “we tried”.

There’s definitely some sketchy stuff going on, but in general, reviews are mostly an opinion. A lover of the original versus a hater of the original will probably not give the same score to this game. It really depends on the reviewers history, preferences, ability to investigate, empathize with other demographics / types of players, patience, endurance, willingness to forgive bad gameplay/graphics/story/music as long as the gameplay/graphics/story/music is good, etc.

Don’t think every nerd has ADHD. or they other way around. But I don’t disagree with you

you know, you’re right. And I thought of making a similar comment. But it doesn’t really matter for the punchline, except us nerds are peeved by the inaccuracy. In Oracle of Seasons, he goes “Oh keeper of the essences! I have awaited your arrival! I give you this!”, so imo that’s close enough

Holy shit! That’s neat. Thank you!

Same. How do you get that info from the app? I can only find the version, not the rest of the info

Iirc he’s a comedian

In a way I don’t believe Nintendo was naive enough to rely on ‘pinky promise’. Nintendo makes you sign NDAs for getting information about unreleased games, going to events, and playing review copies. Usually not personally, but there’s a contract between Nintendo and the news / writing org.

So I’m pretty sure they did this with the foresight that people would start talking about it. How they can see that as a net positive I find hard to argue, but they get datamined on the regular and games are leaked a week before street date so they had to know.

Well, no Rock & Stone! for you then :P
