That strikes me as a deliberately bad faith reading of the spirit of the piece.

I can’t believe a news site would report on the biggest leak of the biggest game of the year that is currently being talked about by the broader gaming community as though it was newsworthy or something!

This article is bizarre.

Why do we WANT a drip-feed of advertising that reveals half the game before it’s even out, exactly? That seems pointless. If we know we want the game, then we don’t need it and it’ll just hurt the experience. If we don’t know, then we shouldn’t be looking to advertising for that decision, we…

what you are saying: ‘it’s not an extinction-level event’

I mean, those claims are just silly though. Microsoft is a massive Conglomerate. They’re not some mom & pop shop on the corner. The other two are also conglomerates. Microsoft goofed up and neglected parts of their business, so now a conglomerate that made 200bn last year wants everyone to go along with their plans…

Then it will be the Ununited Kingdom!  Am i rite?

In a better world he’d be in a fucking labor camp.

Haven’t seen this much fearmongering over East Asian corporations since the cyberpunk genre.

He thought he was really clever for that one huh?

What an extraordinarily ignorant view on children and parenting. This may sound shocking, but tiny children often behave very differently from each other, regardless of the parenting method. 

Thats a really naive way of looking at safety. Blame the victim. Safety systems should always assume we’re distracted and inattentive because we ALL have moments like this and NOBODY deserves to die because of it.

If we leave it at ‘it was the victim’s fault, case closed’ then nothing improves and someone else WILL…

During my stint in the Navy I was a technician for an aircraft called affectionately “The Hoover” (a S3 Viking) it had two very large Pratt and Whitney engines attached to it that had the same safe distance.

by “i’m going to call this one here” i meant “i’m ending this particular post right here.” in other words, i had more i wanted to say, but was extremely tired and stopped there.

this is what often happens. I point out that china is being singled out, people go “we’re not singling out china,” but then in the same breath they indeed come out and say something like “well it’s clearly worse than the united states,” or at the very least “the united states is clearly not worse than china.” this is…

this is really well-worded and idk how kinja works so i’m replying to it on the off-chance that it helps get it out of the greys

There is absolutely no comparison between the US and China.

Then they should get their facts straight about tiktok, as its not “chinese government spyware” lol

people here have literally linked to sources that quote people like ted cruz who are specifically using the tik tok thing as an intentional anti-china racist thing. it’s nothing that’s being imagined at all. i recommend reading some of my other posts so you can see my points. im in middle of work so cant go beyond…

Liberals always eagerly gobble up right-wing jingoism and redbaiting.
