Considering that this developer was also cheering when Total Biscuit passed on, it’s pretty clear that she’s a venomous toxic individual. If I had to guess, she was probably already on thin ice when this incident occurred. If so, it shouldn’t be a surprise to anybody that it ended this way.

PS: Yeah this article really…

Yes, cause construction workers are clearly out there publically representing their companies in a highly visible manner daily. 9_9

Again, if you are representing your company, if you’re in a position where your statements are highly publicized, then you can’t get away with stuff like this. That’s clearly different…

The conversation was fairly civil right up until the point outlined in the news story. What other people did afterward is irrelevant. She escalated the situation and then continued making things worse.

If you’re representing others professionally, you can’t do that. Period.

If you don’t want to be fired for being an idiot, then don’t be an idiot on social media! There is no situation where it’s okay for a developer to get into a public spat, especially with fans. You can falsely cry harassment all you want, but it doesn’t change that this behavior is unprofessional and that no business…

Yeah I know, laugh it up.

Ahh yes, the filtering issue. The odd thing is, that I actually see MORE stuff like that since Yahoo took over. Their filters seem to block a lot of perfectly (or relatively) innocent content but can’t catch the porn bots.

It hasn’t affected me much personally, but it’s one of two examples I know of where Yahoo tried…

Right. Like I said, I don’t much go in for these topics. In fact, I’m actually fairly conservative. (Libertarian leaning.) But I still hate seeing such mean and petty behavior directed at people, particularly when I’m trying to stick to fairly apolitical subjects. Not that those subjects stay apolitical. It feels like…

You’re right that Tumblr is falling apart, but you’re wrong about the ‘why’. Yahoo purchasing the site had nothing to do with it. Oh sure, a ton of people complained, and the new “features” added to the site since then have certainly flopped, but the exodus began before then.

Most of the people complaining about Yahoo…

With all due respect, while a restaurant is within it’s right to refuse service for any reason, that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t face consequences. With this in mind, they rather deserve the backlash here. No matter how much people would like it to be, that slogan isn’t a hate symbol. (I’m sorry, but it isn’t. If you…

I doubt that. Usually, falling sales prompt the GPU manufacturer’s to move forward, not back off. Think about it, “Oh crap, our sales are in the tank! Let’s do, nothing at all!”

They’ll probably just disable some cores and sell the stock they couldn’t get rid of at a discounted price, after the release of the next…

I really don’t buy the idea that Navi isn’t going to be on par with a high end 2018 PC. Yes, it’ll probably be the equivalent of a mid-range machine when it comes out in 2020. But, nVidia will have released new cards before then, as will AMD. That will certainly move the definition of mid-end machinery.

Basically,…

They’re getting there, but they’re still a bit above where they were. Plus, considering nVidia is releasing a new set of cards in August or September, they really should be slashing the price of existing cards about now, if only to clear out stock.

Eh, unless you have a pressing need for a new GPU right now, I’d advise holding onto your money. Crypto mining died hard, about two months ago, but despite this, retailers have refused to lower prices back to where they were before it took off. It’s extremely odd because the cards aren’t selling at these prices…

The first half of the 360's lifespan was great. The second half, not so much.

The first half had a good mixture of exclusive western titles and some fun Japanese gems. (Tales of Vesperia, Blue Dragon, etc.) But, during the next half of the 360's lifespan, it felt almost like Microsoft was complacent.

There weren’t…

Ayep.

Nobody asked for it, nobody wanted it, everybody hates it, but an editor wanted it, so none of that matters!

The idea that, “true fans” object to any change and scream, “SJW,” is frankly both off base and pure sour-grapes. A lot of the changes that occurred in the past half-decade or so at Marvel have been…

Oh, boo-freaking-hoo!

I have zero sympathy for the people behind The Last Jedi on this. First. They actively engaged the actual trolls, which is always a mistake. Second, rather than back off and starve the trolls of attention, they instead started making generalizations about,“ALL FANS.”

Sorry, that’s the exact point…

It’s great that Cebulski knows that it’s bad when white people decide to treat the identities of people from other ethnic backgrounds as outfits to try on.You do realize that we have a term for ethnic double standards, riiiiight?!

Eh, no surprise really. After how polarizing TLJ was, I rather figured Solo would end up taking a hit. The strength of franchises is that yearly entries tend to build on the goodwill of the previous film, “When people go away from it satisfied.” But entries that are poorly received tend to eat away at that good will.…

I don’t care about this guys pedigree. There are too many Star Wars films being planned. This isn’t Marvel, where you have dozens if not hundreds of potential lead characters to work, all with their own separate stories. No, this is Star Wars. It’s always been moved forward by a relatively small number of characters,…

Yes, because insulting the original shows is really going to win the fans over to your way of thinking! 9_9
