Claiming that there is “need” for more transparency doesn’t actually mean anything. You didn’t offer even a single reason why there not only could be more, should be more, you want more and especially a reason why there “needs” to be more.

I hope that’s decaf.  Otherwise he’s not going to be able to get to sleep.

This reminds me of a night at the end of college where the whole team was at the house and going to a dive bar together (because it would serve freshmen).

Yeah. Pulling a gun has never de-escalated a situation. Ever. You pull a gun to escalate a situation to a conclusion as fast as possible. Usually with little regard or understanding of what that conclusion might be. Pulling a gun is how you say “we are done talking about this, one way or another.”

No idea, but I find them fascinating. There was a window of time where every thing had a TCG. I remember when Game of Thrones first came out, someone’s evidence for John Snow being a Targaryen was the A Song of Ice and Fire TCG that had a card with him riding a dragon.

Imagine thinking there’s only one Jewish black actress out there. There’s even more than one famous Jewish black actress.

I’m not quite sure what you’re getting at. An Asian actor might be irritated that they can only play characters of asian descent (as opposed to...?), so it would be better if a white person just did it?

I mean:

And have an episode where Springfield is hit with a cloud of toxic gas, and all the characters that get recast were caught in it, explaining why they sound different.

Dude, what in the flying fuck are you talking about? So the governor requires us to wear a mask and he’s somehow a dictator? Let’s analyze what you just said. So last time I looked every single state in the union requires that you wear a seat belt. They also require you to drive at a set speed limit. You are also…

i doubt only a few people know. The consoles have to be in production at this point if they are launching this year. all the distributors and storefronts know at this point. also its “closely guarded secret” not regarded. regarding means to consider or think of (someone or something) in a specified way.

I’m pretty sure that game developers also need to know when the consoles come out to know what their deadline for the launch titles is going to be. 

You know, it’s really noisy back there.  Can’t hear shit from a drum riser.

Keep it going. Don’t let the momentum die out. Now is the time to come forward to say something even if you don’t have much to say except that you want to show solidarity. That matters. That adds to the volume. The threat of extra judicial execution is one many fear. Nobody should have to go through that. We have…

and that’s okay! There’s an implicit ‘if Black people are around you’ attached to the statement. Consider also: the internet— with the caveat that I don’t want you to go out and try to collect Black friends like Pokemon.

I’m not sure you realize exactly what that would entail.

It’s just common sense.  This demo was a commercial to get developers to use Unreal 5.  They wouldn’t make this statement outright if it was false, because they’d be proving themselves to be selling a false promise, and that’s an easy way to lose your customers (which, again, is not us; it’s next-gen developers).

I’ve noticed this particular trend on the internet that people tend to act like they know everything about programming, computer game development, graphics, loading of assets etc when they have 0 knowledge of how a computer actually works or how memory management and these 3d graphics rendering works.

I was not aware that Nintendo owns Facebook... I guess you learn something new every day! 🤔
