You know who’s really bad about encouraging developers to self-censor: Kirk Hamilton. Just look at this shit: http://kotaku.com/5955855/the-ten-commandments-of-video-game-menus . Who fucking made this guy Video Game Moses!? What if the developers intended for players to start a New Game by default everytime the game…

Anita’s dope. Her videos are dope. She’s got good points.

What office does Anita Saarkesian hold? What has she officially suppressed?

Yeah man. An election isn’t a political event. That makes sense!

The right wing already used violent mobs to shut down events they disagree with. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brooks_Brothers_riot

I don’t think you got that straight.

I would say that the Omaha Nebraska mayoral race is a molehill, and making a mountain out if it is suspect. Instead of pantsing Bernie Sanders and getting all “core of our humanity” about this, why not find somebody in Nebraska (https://www.google.com/maps/place/Omaha,+NE/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x87938dc8b50cfced:0x46424d4fae…

I feel like there are two obvious money-making opportunities here: 1. some sort of community with super-strict standards that let you play with randoms who are guaranteed to be well behaved. 2. multiplayer video games that let you communicate effectively with randoms without voice chat or any possible abuse.

This is bad clickbait. I meh’d, would not share.

Point of order: Is the “jews adept at frying” tweet supposed to be a holocaust joke? Holocaust jokes usually involve ovens, maybe showers or lampshades if you wanna get real creepy, but not stovetops or frying pans? Isn’t it just a tame ethnic food joke about latkes?

That guy should shut the fuck up.

So you’re saying that it’s time for some game theory?

Seems that pro sports leagues are okay with adding games to the pre or post-season, but that the regular season has some institutional inertia. I don’t think it’s about an economic question. If more games = more $ for owners, they’d be pushing to tack on extra games every CBA, no?

There must be a sweet spot on the spreadsheet where cutting games is offset by increased viewership and higher CPMs for radio/TV ads. If not 6-8, maybe it’s 3-5.

can’t they charge more for ads if there is scarcity and higher quality and presumably higher ratings?

To be fair, it is a lot like 1930's Germany right now.

What demonizing? Has he been turned into a Demon? Where did it start and how far did it go? What horrible thing happened to Mr. Tron that has you so upset and pearl-clutchy?
