“it’s still surprising that online games continue to deal with these issues.”

And it was certainly rich finance people that saw the short positions and decided to harness the mob. Make no mistake, while there were certainly regular average people that made good money from this (and some that lost), the major winners were finance people who made millions.

With all the PRO™ rumors going around awhile back my theory is that this was supposed to be an enhanced console but due to logistics they had to reel it back and just sell off these screens first. If they don’t ship them all I imagine the first batch of Switch 2 screens will be a mix of OLED and IPS much like the 3DS.

The real answer is that there’s no way to ever win. If you’re too far off, people get mad. If it’s too close, people get mad.

The only winning move is to never make an adaptation.

I’m not racist! Some of my best friends are Badgers!

Badger Lives Matter!

That’s racist.

Game design changes after playtests sometimes. That’s the point of playtests, dipshit.

We could expose players to iterative design in video games again, but try it a little differently this time.

It’s not “just” bluetooth, it’s that already supporting controllers and local play via bluetooth makes it more complicated and depending on how in demand or how much they thought it would be used didn’t justify doing it. I will always side with the fact that we don’t have remotely perfect information in order to judge…

Generally speaking, we’ve shifted away from calling First Peoples as a whole Native Americans or Indians and used First Peoples and/or their tribal ethnicity. So while yes, it has and does happen, it’s kind of also the same point - language and awareness DOES change.

when he said they are the worst people in the world that probably also means something different in spain

That is a fairly loaded and complicated question but the answer is ethnically different.

I mean, is it really that hard for people to tell different ethnicities of Asians? Or he could have googled the streamer or anything before being a dumb fuck online.

“They deserved the abuse because they tried to stop it”

Even if you’re pro-life, the legal grounds of this particular bill are dubious at best. Supporting the bill is supporting the bill’s language. In particular, you are giving the greenlight for other states to pass bills that effectively ban all guns using the same dubious logic as this one does.

Phrasing

Dude, the so-called ‘Great Firewall’ is far more pourous than you might think. VPNs are widespread over there, and the government typically looks the other way. Chinese are not as ignorant of the world or their history as some people seem to think that they are.

Why is it that video games are the only place that people think they can make additions to an existing work, without the consent of the IP holders, and then get mad when they get told to stop?

I could be the best filmmaker in the world but I can’t go out and shoot a bunch of scenes, add them to an existing film, remix…

You'd lose that bet. If these people were just playing Melee on a CRT through an unmodified GameCube, Nintendo wouldn't care. It's only taking umbrage to Project+, a mod of Smash Brawl, being used and streamed in money matches. The operative word is "mod".
