OMFG, please read this in full

https://www.kotaku.com.au/2023/02/nintendos-big-mario-kart-ride-at-universal-can-only-be-ridden-by-thin-people/

Quote
The app’s copy indicates that there’s a test seat available to gauge whether or not an attendee meets these requirements. Given that the average waist circumference in the U.S. is just around 40 inches, this certainly seems likely to exclude a good number of folks.

Quote
Another popular tweet calls out the absurdity of such a strict waist limitation. “A 40” waist line is about a [women’s] size 20.”

Quote
According to CDC statistics cited by Healthline, the average clothing size for adults assigned female at birth hovers between 18 to 20. As many replies to the tweet above indicate, a 40-inch waist is a “very normal and common size to be for many body types.”

Quote
The waistline requirement particularly stings as Mario Kart: Bowser’s Challenge is the only ride to be featured at Super Nintendo World, yet it’s not designed to accommodate average or plus size attendees’ physical dimensions.

Fuck me. These people are fucking ridiculous.

This children's attraction isn't made for thin people, it's made for children.

The real reason you don't out yourself as a gamer in public isn't because you'd be associated with gameralligator, like those tinfoil hats at resetti believe, but because the hobby is still overrun by fat manbabies.

:cop User Banned (1 week): Hostility toward other users over multiple posts. History of antagonistic behavior
Quote from: KBSaint  now Deleted member 12867
Quote from: Tapiozona
Netflix alone is still drastically cheaper than network and cable tv and arguably provides the same value now as a single platform as network/cable tv did back then making it an insane value for lower income people relative to pre cord cutting (and even today)

So where does the line get drawn, price wise, where Netflix needs to be to make it friendly to all lower income people? Even cheaper or allowing sharing still didn't make it inclusive for everyone and the free argument is something businesses really can't support. End of the day, absolutely nothing is free
Not asking for it to be free. Asking to be able to do whatever the fuck I want with my 4 simultaneous streams. If I want to share that with other people and they share their service with me it's paid for so what's the problem. Also just fuck you in general. I pay for the streams they aren't free. Think of the businesses approach is just gross. I've seen the word abuse, exploit, and now free. Like I just hijack the netflix streams. If I'm paying for 4 streams I should be allowed to use them as I feel fit. Also I don't give a fuck what's good for Netflix and you shouldn't either. Expecting people to stand up for consumers is too much I guess. If I want to set them up with an auto clicker to keep playing non stop I paid for them.

Using what you pay for =/= free

The average is around 40 inches?  I'm 6 foot overweight and still only hit 33 inches. I'm amazed you can even get out of the chair to go to an amusement park at that size. That's not fat, that's morbidly obese.

You update your profile and log into the device once a month....this isn't difficult at all holy shit.
Quote
Its a pain in the ass to do iwith multiple devices I rarely ever use Netflix on, and if i forget i and log on when I'm at families on my phone or ipad then I have to call them. it's just not worth the bother?
Quote
Well given that its literally in the OP on how to do this, i'd say you are fine, but lets be honest, this isn't the real reason you are complaining.
Quote
And the real reason is? If your insinuating that I'm borrowing my netflix, I'm actually the one in the family who has the account people mooch from.

And I didn't see anything in the op or the articlNetflix, on how to change my home ip. That's something they decide.
Quote
You use multiple devices for Netflix, so you're mad that you'll have to log into those multiple devices to use them?
Quote
logging ins not the problem, its just a hassle to have to log in in things i do t nor.ally watch from. Like i said in my post i normally watch shit on my ps4. But im not going to take that with me if im going to bring that, and why would I normally log in on my phone or ipad when I can watch it on my TV?

And it sounds like if it's blocked it's blocked even if you try and sign in on your home system, so if I just flip on Netflix on my phone while killing time before Thanksgiving dinner, I've blocked my phone everywhere until I call them.

All these extra steps just kill the convenience of.mobile apps. They're not deal breakers by themselves but there's no reason why I shouldn't consider them in comparison to other streaming services.

And whose cereal did I piss in to get ganged up on like this.

Guess where does start of the insanity of this rant:

Quote from: AaronPokePendejo
I feel like being pessimistic here is useless because it accomplishes nothing. There's not really a way to prevent the rise of AI, it's happening sooner or later so the real focus should be making reforms that allow AI to revolutionize the world for the better rather than turn it into a hellscape. This is something we need to be putting as a high priority for policy making right now. Instead of talking about how AI will be awful, we need to be having discussions on what sorts of policies can be put in place to prevent those outcomes, to ensure it works to create a more equitable society rather than a less equitable one. I feel like too many of these discussions have people being mired by pessimism or a fear of change, or an innate need to assert how special we as humans are and thus AI is inevitably a problem to these people. AI can bring about utopia, but this will take an active effort on our part. Stopping AI is impossible, because bad actors will continue to research it to their own benefit no matter what, and rather than letting them monopolize the technology and assure their hegemony we need to be working to make it work for everyone right now before it's too late

“AI can bring about utopia” :awesome

Quote from: Mezentine
There's a bit in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever where Shuri tells her AI to hack into a '72 Plymouth and he takes remote control of it and that's when my brain broke. This movie is as good as anything in the MCU can be at this point, which is to say skillfully made with ideas on its mind and yet still fundamentally running on a deep, deep nonsense logic.

I mean sure, yes, you can explain this, they have nanobots that assemble into a remote controlled solenoid that depresses the accelerator or whatever, you can explain it but that's not how it feels on the screen. In that moment it just looks like "everything in the world can be hacked", like everything is running on video game logic.

This is the thing that is unrealistic in the Black Panther movie? :mindblown

You are saying like anyone gives a shit, outside social media, about Ezra Miller being in that film.

If the trailer is good and there is good word of mouth, I can see getting by. Star power is not what it used.

spoiler (click to show/hide)
it also totally possible that is cheaper to release it. Batgirl was probably nowhere close the budget of this film.

Deliberately ignoring the thread reply banner rules
???

I went and looked at the reply banner and they really have equated mentioning the game with stealth hyping it:
Quote
Reminder

Staff has made the decision to disallow Hogwarts discussion, so don't use this thread as a stealth hype thread. Simply don't bring up the game. Any attempts to do so will be met with moderation.

If I actually still posted, they'd have already talked me out of Forspoken because while I'd like to play a cheesy Prototype-style game I also would want to bag on stupid writing. And if I actually still posted and bought Hogwarts, this'd scare me away from posting because what if you inadvertantly indicate you were playing the wizard game in a way that TransEra--who does not care if you play the fucking wizard game just stop being slick about it--deems gloaty you're gonna get actioned.

I say this a lot but: how does staff keep getting worse at this? how is there no bottom?

Netflix knows that people travel for more than 7 days. 7 days is likely the amount of time they picked that would make it annoying enough to have to constantly send someone a code within 15 minutes of the request, but not so annoying enough if someone is on a two week vacation and didn't have a device already authorized to enter a code twice on their vacation. It doesn't take much to put two and two together to se that you're not going to be allowed to do a one time 7 day window and that's it. Their FAQ doesn't make any indication either.

...because if you could just get a code whenever I could just let people outside my house keep generating keys whenever they wanted to watch. It would pretty much make this entire thing useless. There has to be some restriction on it.

And the fact you jumped in with a neeedlessly rude comment suggesting I didn't read when literally nothing in there backs up what you're saying is pretty fucking funny.

I went and looked at the reply banner and they really have equated mentioning the game with stealth hyping it:
Quote
Reminder

Staff has made the decision to disallow Hogwarts discussion, so don't use this thread as a stealth hype thread. Simply don't bring up the game. Any attempts to do so will be met with moderation.
Therefore, the mod team has decided to expand our prior ban on promotion for the Hogwarts game to include the game itself. There will be no OT and no discussion of this game.
Probably should have mentioned that "no discussion" meant "no mentioning of the game at all (unless it's in the Joanne thread)" because I think most people would have read this as "don't make threads about it" rather than "simply don't bring up the game."

And just because it's fun, a certain list that hasn't been updated since October 27, 2020:
Prohibited Games

As a general measuring stick, if a game is not appropriate for broadcast on Twitch it is unlikely to be appropriate here. Games that Valve hides on Steam by default due to "adult only sexual content" are also explicitly prohibited. Do not discuss these games or create threads about them. Other games will only be considered for this list if the staff receives a direct complaint about their contents. After review, the following games have also been prohibited:
Azur Lane
Dungeon Travelers 2: The Royal Library
Gal Gun
Gal Gun 2
Hatred
Huniepop
KanColle
Mary Skelter 2
Monster Monpiece
Negligee: Love Stories
Omega Labyrinth Z
Saya no Uta
Senran Kagura Burst Re:Newal
Shinobi Refle: Senran Kagura
Super Seducer: How to Talk to Girls
Super Seducer 2
Tits N Tanks

I feel like being pessimistic here is useless because it accomplishes nothing. There's not really a way to prevent the rise of AI, it's happening sooner or later so the real focus should be making reforms that allow AI to revolutionize the world for the better rather than turn it into a hellscape. This is something we need to be putting as a high priority for policy making right now. Instead of talking about how AI will be awful, we need to be having discussions on what sorts of policies can be put in place to prevent those outcomes, to ensure it works to create a more equitable society rather than a less equitable one. I feel like too many of these discussions have people being mired by pessimism or a fear of change, or an innate need to assert how special we as humans are and thus AI is inevitably a problem to these people. AI can bring about utopia, but this will take an active effort on our part. Stopping AI is impossible, because bad actors will continue to research it to their own benefit no matter what, and rather than letting them monopolize the technology and assure their hegemony we need to be working to make it work for everyone right now before it's too late

To be fair, anyone with an account newer than 2018 is probably an alt and so knows the rules.

They’re really going with ‘act like it doesn’t exist or get banned’ while the Joanne Megahatethread is not stopped from mentioning it AT ALL? Amazing, TransEra really are the ones in charge over there, aren’t they?

I don't think it's fair to lump trans folk in with the things that post on reeee

In my defense, I did say TransEra. The transgenders I know don’t care and are planning to plan the unnamed Wizard Game.

Ezra Miller is horrible. But this is a discussion forum/discussion thread. I think we’re are mature enough adults to have a conversation about them and the movie in this place. And maybe it’s not the greatest movie ever and we can inform people who might otherwise want to see it, even with a problematic actor, and tell members to not waste their time with it.

Well those threads are nice at the very least in increasing my ignore list.

I really don't get people being annoyed about the ban though. If you wanna buy the game even if it means supporting JK, just buy the stupid game and accept that you are supporting her and don't bother telling this or other threads you are.

It's really that simple. You have a right to buy what you want to buy, and people have a right to judge you for buying it :D So just accept it.

Some people work, have friends, family, responsibilities. On their downtime they take a break and read an assumed hobbyist forum about video games. You know, because video games are a hobby of theirs. A reprieve from the stresses of life. Screw them for not spending 19 hours a day reading Twitter and forums.
