“Every single analysis of the election that I’ve seen has said that voter suppression had nothing to do with it. The problem was that Clinton was a bad candidate from the very beginning.”

Thanks for answering my question. I know you’re not Twitch support, but I wonder if an Etch-a-Sketch could sneak into the gaming category. It’s basically a proto-GameBoy with one app: Draw. Do people stream non-digital games like board games in the #gaming section? If I played Etch-a-sketch Pictionary with the chat,…

I thought Twitch had rules about non-gaming content? What’s Twitchable and not? I’ve been thinking about streaming some Etch-a-sketch sessions.

I’m going to go and whipe my SD card and start fresh one last time, but I’ve already ordered a Wii U Pro Controller in case this doesn’t work out.

Word of warning. I got the NES30 Pro for my RetroPie and it’s been a nightmare to set up. It works fine in the UI but once I go into an emulator it’s useless and I need to hard reboot to get out of a game. I’ve been all up in my config files and nothing works. Tried several different firmwares, nothing. Other people…

Aw come on. You can find some differences. You barely even tried!

I can’t believe people haven’t heard about The New Movement (http://theconcourse.deadspin.com/the-new-movement-starts-now-1788749992) you started, Hamilton. I really think it might time for a New Movement update so we can all see how much progress has been made. What do you say?

I’ve always wondered why the protagonist/antagonist flip-flop isn’t explored more. We keep retreading the same ground of hero v. villain, or go with “nice hero”/ “jerk hero” for some variety. But not a lot of games let you explicitly play the bad guy working to defeat good guys. And it’s a core element of D&D where…

12% of “Not Enough” is hard to pay.

“The report often uses vague language, offering “high confidence” (note: this is not the same a being sure of something)“

Shame? Embarrassment!? Have you ever talked to a Trump voter?

Reminder: reports of a second shooter are common. actual second shooters are rare.

DNC anointed her like the RNC anointed Jeb!. Too bad nobody had the skills to take her out, like the last time she was anointed.

I will never, ever forgive you. But I’ve already forgotten.

I think trolling technology has evolved since the 70's. People were getting flamed on BBS’s and Usenet groups, but they weren’t getting SWATTED. And trolling was usually a more personal one-to-one thing then. The mob-troll hivemind thing is pretty new. So it’s like yes, WWI was legit bad, but Hiroshima and Auschwitz…

I don’t think adding government regulation to the mess is going to make it less messy.

K, guy.

But they don’t reach for pitchforks. They just make YouTubes. So in the end, who gives a shit?

Step up from “vlogger”

I think your universal enlightened theory of “at the end of the day, I believe the average person does want to make the world a better place for everyone”. Is flawed. Some people (lots of people!) want to restore what they perceive as a natural order. It’s religious/traditional. Hierarchy and power relationships are…
