No, I don't have a horse in this race. I don't really give a rats ass about either side. The world will turn even after this conflict/debate/whatever is done. As far as my bias, I'm just seeing how things are. When I see less comments on the gamergate side that doesn't resort to ad-hominem and I see more on the other,…

Won't happen for most websites. Legal liability if the database gets hacked. Only big corporations have the staff for top tier security and infrastructure. Unless some company was somehow able to get their hands on a security expert. Most don't though.

I agree with that. It's why I've been watching from the sidelines (I have no horse in this race) with an keen interest in how both sides react. And basically yeah, as much as the anti-gamergate want to say they don't support harassment, quite a few skirt the line, if not cross it. But again, this is what happens when…

Most of the gaming community doesn't give a rats ass about the conflict I surmise. The numbers are too few on either side to be representative of really anything substantial. They see a cluster-fuck, and they avoid it. It's like walking down a street and seeing a full on massive street brawl going on. You turn around…

Considering the diverse group of gamergate... it was probably legitimately one, the other, or both. To say it's completely one of those is being genuinely dishonest. Frankly, anyone painting the entire movement with one giant label doesn't understand that the group is not a single entity.

We all go WTF when microsoft…

No she did not. Though frankly, her original design with blue stripes going over her breasts doesn't help. However, that's just the advancement of technology and being unable to go far from the original design without committing a world building sin (don't retroactively change universe rules).

What you are describing is coined as "slacktivism".

I applaud this article because it makes seavral keys points about how even a few people can use technology to harass people. It also illustrates that not everything is clear cut, black/white as people want it to be. So I'm glad that harassers are getting unveiled.

You mean lazy ass publishers. publishers dictate release dates.

And destiny stole those mechanics from whom? I mean, hell - it's just game mechanics.

Aren't you always basically sprinting anyways?

Stick figures!

Because they are worried people will see it as a turd. Restrictions like these means that the marketing department has no faith in the product they are pitching for you to buy.

Been watching Akatsuki No Yona. It's quite good in my opinion. Looks like a seven samurai story but with the main "princess/village/whatever" is going to end up as one of them. So far, it's been pretty interesting.

X-com, Halo trilogy, Mass effect Trilogy and Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance.

Ah I see. Frankly, I would like to root the phone simply to get rid of the stock apps that I don't want.

I'm doing this from now on.

heh, I may check that out. I really hate some of the apps on my stock Samsung galaxy.
