In this case, I’ve heard it’s a telecine rip, so it’s a much higher quality.

Yes, it’s just a tie breaker. It can't tell you which team is better, just which team will take the trophy home.

My question is: what is intent, and what is creativity?

I’m having a lot of fears coming out of this trailer:

I’m glad that you think my perspective is interesting, despite your (very reasonable) anger towards them. I hope it’s helpful, because, as you say, my perspective is not often represented. Not even incels themselves can often process their feelings in public, because they have long since stopped being honest with…

Let me say something that comes from a past part of my life where I was dangerously close to be an incel. Really, the only thing that probably kept me from it is that I had RL friends, both men and women.

Incels in those forums are engaging, mostly, in a form of fantasy. A kind of violent and nightmarish fantasy that,…

It’s a very well known saying in Spain: el que roba a un ladrón tiene cien años de perdón.

As we say in Spain, “those who steal from a thief get a sentence reduction of 100 years.”

How exactly are the developers harmed? I would think the opposite, as leaks increase the hype, and hence the release sales. If the game has issues that would hinder the sales, and those issues are reported in the leaks, they are usually fixed, which also increases sales.

It’s always been a fact of the internet: if you are posting a question in a public forum that nobody is interested on answering, you should create a sockpuppet account, and give an incredibly wrong answer while displaying a lot of arrogance. That will stimulate people to answer: not to help the person who asked the…

I think it can be helped. At a certain point where one company controls too much of a certain market, it should be recognized as a monopoly. It should stop being publicly traded, and get regulated as a monopoly; in this case, regulated as an open marketplace. If they wanted to keep control over their public image,…

Look up the situation of minoritized languages that are dying because of languages that have to compete against languages that are supported by the political and the economic power that dominates the country where they are minoritized. Some are managing to survive, because they adopt radical forms of protection, like…

So, your only difference with Republicans is that rather than impose English on immigrant and native American populations by law, you choose to let the assimilation and economic necessity to do the dirty work of forcing people to change their language, or to not pass down their language to their children. Your method,…

So, you’re saying that minoritized languages should simply be allowed to disappear organically, “naturally”, when they inevitably lose all of their speakers in favor of the language that has on its side the economic power. That all languages should eventually disappear in favor of English, the language of economic…

That’s assuming that it’s a blind spot, and not an intentional part of the message.

Because sometimes profit is not the only metric used to measure the success of a cultural product. Very often, the propagandistic effects are just as important.

Indigenous language revitalization can only be achieved through similar means. If there’s no political will to make the learning of an indigenous language compulsory to everybody who lives in a certain territory, and make the administration work in that language primarily, then that language will disappear.

The difference being that Texas is working to protect the dominant language that is in no danger of disappearing, while Quebec is working to protect the minoritized language. Texas seeks cultural erasure and Quebec tries to avoid cultural erasure.

I’m a Galician speaker from Spain, where Galician is a minoritized language. Minoritized languages are languages that are minority languages in a country, but majority languages in a certain region of that country. For these reason, these languages suffer extreme cultural (and often legal) pressure from the country at…

You could have placed the blame on the bad candidate who managed to lose an election against a clown like Trump. You could have even placed the blame on Hillary’s primary voters, who put their own preferences ahead of the common good, despite being warned that Hillary, in 2016, was basically unelectable (for unfair…
