I clicked on Lil Xan’s Twitter.

Wanna see something fun? If you word-replace “Conservatives” with “Idiots” and “Liberals” with “Normal People” this piece works so much better and almost makes it more sympathetic.

Oh yeah. But, the fact that they were willing to change this bodes well.

I mean, for the record I’m talking specifically about instances of “Hey, we hate this, can you guys at least give us the option to revert it/change it/etc.?” as opposed to fans (or, well, “fans”) bitching about things inherent to the game’s design. Like, I don’t think FromSoft should’ve listened to anyone calling for…

I’m...kinda shocked!

Okay, can I just say that I’ve noticed that JP companies seem to be slowly but surely shifting their longstanding business model of “We know what’s best for the customer” to “We’re gonna let the customers inform us of what they want”, and it’s kind rad?

It seems to have coincided with Japan’s…

Bwaaahaha

So you’re cool with the whole I’m-A-Piece-Of-Shit-And-My-Opinions-Are-Awful bit, and went right to pretending to give a shit about civil rights, that’s fucking adorable internet fundie troll rules-lawyering of the highest order that zero people are going to even bother to entertain for more than a half second…

Ah yes, the classic “but what about giving equal voice to my horrible opinions just as much as other people’s good ones!?” argument.

I don’t think it works, like, ever? But y’all sure do cry about it a lot.

If your opinions are getting downvoted into oblivion and places that have advertisers to worry about are removing…

something-something vegans-will-always-tell-you-they’re-vegan joke. Way to play the hits Moby, I guess.

I mean, look. Being vegan? Totally fine. Being VEGAN™, as Moby is, tends to annoy the shit out of everyone around you due to the proclivity of such people to think their dietary/lifestyle choice gives them the…

Counterpoint: Ray Lewis, while not seemingly too horribly dumb or anything, is also not exactly the textbook definition of Deep-Study Theologian Thinker or anything so I wouldn’t be too salty about it if I was Beckham Jr.

Hell I take accusations of this as a compliment most of the time, although that also comes from…

Probably the biggest possible silver lining in the election of President Wario has been that so many of these shitbirds have been dragged up to the surface and into the withering glare of public scrutiny, something they were more or less immune to during the Obama years because nobody was sufficiently pissed off to go…

Yeah. I miss having actual discussions — not arguments, discussions — in the comments sections. So hard with how Kinja works, though. :(

Also, I got to show HG101 to someone who hasn’t seen it? That really makes me happy, those guys are the Real Fucking Deal. I’ve gotten to meet the owner, Kurt Kalata, a few times and…

Fair enough! Was actually fun to hash out though so thanks.

And I 100% agree with you on the diminished role of EU Computing in the earlier days of videogame’s formative years from 3rd to 5th console generations. The Amiga was huge. The Speccy was huge. The Commodore was huge. Even in Japan you could futz around with…

Question: Did he fire his hairdresser at some point as well in a shotgun style Twit-fit? It seems like he’s not even bothering to dye it anymore, it’s greyer than Steve Bannon’s vodka shits.

So, bulk-translated: “Attempting to get anything resembling coherent speech out of President Trump is not a thing myself or anyone else has been able to do given the current state of what passes for his thought process at the moment because it resembles one of those old pinball machines in TILT mode that is also…

Answering these in order as I read ‘em, but in order of paragraph:

- That’s true. If something only comes out digitally then that’s the only way to get it, but then you can just download it and store it somewhere. Bits on the disc vs. bits on a Hard Drive are all the same to the bits in question.

- Well, the...genes, I…

I mean, you know Trump would happily tweet about how he could take Gronk. If that showdown ever came to pass, Trump would bloviate for a few days leading up to the showdown before then barricading himself inside Mar-a-Lago with a moat pit and accuse Gronk of being a Hillary-hired assassin working for the deep state,…

Scott Pilgrim’s been playable for a bit now on emulation, FWIW.

MMOs are something of a different beast; you can still “preserve” an MMO by having a copy of the server software and a client built at a given time and go from there, but it’s a bit pointless. If a game needs a server to function, and that server closes…

Something to consider: If you want to patch your game, that patch will remove those songs. If you don’t want to patch your game, you’re stuck playing the game without any of the work that’s gone into it post-release (which is significant).

Also: The assets of Grand Theft Auto IV, one of the most popular games ever…

She does; her viewers don’t, and she and the Network know that.

That’s the Fox News grift in a nutshell: Tell idiots whatever reinforces their current prejudices and make bank off it. Sure, you’ve gotta be kinda morally bankrupt but that’s nowhere near as high of a bar to clear as we wish it was, let’s be honest. If…

I mean if you spent all that time and arcane research to bring your lich-wife into this plane of existence and then found out she was fucking her boss? You’d probably take shots at him on Twitter too, to be fair.
