I was at a tech conference this last week (more posts about it coming in a few) but I helped a friend with a session about women in tech. Afterwards we were leaving with the group and one of the women was talking to a friend and said, "So I told her when presenting she should have the self-confidence of a mediocre white man!" and they all laughed. Well a white guy was nearby and said, "If you really wanted her to succeed you should have told her to have the self-confidence of an overweight black woman."

Oh man. thank god it was a tech conference otherwise there would have likely been violence.

That guy is toxic scum.

check out all the banned people page 1. That was only 3 years ago. I remember back when I first discovered GAF I could go back years without seeing many bans. Sucks that GAF is this way now, the high user turnover means no coherent culture evolves on there

They're playing Revenge of the Sith on tv and man did the CG age badly. I thought it was only Attack of the Clones that looked terroble, but this one looks just as bad! The storm troopers look like cartoons, the cg ships and backdrops look blurry and weightless, even the wookies are CG! The wookies! The whole thing just looks like a cartoon. /sorry for my GAF-style special fellow-out there

Pretty surprising for the NYT to endorse Hillary considering how unfair and unbalanced those outlets were as soon as a few days ago, helping Trump with their fallacy of of equal treatment for the two major candidates !

It's at the point of the election where the crazy and the stupid kick into overdrive.  I've been on a media blackout for the past two months because it's nothing but nonsense until a couple weeks after the elections.  YAS QUEEN bullshit will be even less tolerable from here on out, if that were even possible.

Edit: The only exception will be the debates but I'm sure I can catch countless streams of them.  I just don't give a fuck what Chuck Todd or George Stephanopoulos have to say about current events.

The YAS QUEEN routine will probably get more and more strident unless Trump utterly collapses in polls going forward. For better or worse it doesn't strike me as very likely and probably wouldn't result directly from anything Clinton might do or say, no matter how masterful her debate performance will be.

Some of them, even those who have been around for years and have thousands of posts under their belt, still think that they can have a reasoned discussion.

It's the same type of obliviousness that leads to the GAF -> Internet -> GAF in spite of other sites like 4chan, SomethingAwful (not so much this place anymore), or Reddit running with it for months or years before GAF finding out about it.

Nah.  Nobody else but Enzom21 accuses you of calling him a distinguished black fellow for asking for clarification.  Any weakness in Enzom's personal view is defended by him declaring that you want to call him a distinguished black fellow.  Or he says "Blah Blah, us distinguished black fellows's deserve that don't we?"

If there were a way to search the use of the word "distinguished black fellow" on GAF it would reveal that 95% of the time it was Enzom21 demanding that Whites to call him that.  Such an odd wish that people call you the most demeaning ethnophaulism possible.  I thought people like him only existed in parody movies made by black people. Prior to that I assumed the idea of a dumb, militant, stupid person who hates whites and sees conspiraces on every level was just a archetype made up by the media.

It turns out they do exist and that's why comedy and parody movies made by black people include them.

The logic of absolutely no selection makes zero sense and I struggle to understand why it's becoming a thing... Maybe because Steam gives the illusion of infinity ? Life is a series of selection (by taste and a variety of other criteria), equating any and all forms of curation as intolerance outright is... bizarre.

Also, I'm triggered by "Idiocracy" being mentioned 10 times on every page of every political GAF thread. Idiocracy is an average comedy, not particulary insightful -and maybe not claiming to be- (with its Malthusian hook of Oh noes, us intelligent urban liberals are getting drown in hillbillies fertility !) and its closing statement was that the idiots were not as dumb as we were led to believe.

 :busta  :kinison

I'm not a political science major but fuck that shit. If all your political insight is from a light hearted satire, maybe you're part of the problem, you know ?

the worst thing about idiocracy is that it's a comfy mike judge film, with his usual mix of smart things deliberately done dumb and dumb things done smart, that has been elevated up to scything political satire.

like people arguing beavis and butthead is a high minded critique of 90s youth culture, then another bunch of people tearing it down for having gross inadequacies in its representation.

I mean the bold is what I'm arguing as the general theme. GAF has these members like Slay and some of the BCT regulars that not-so-subtlety want to call you racist because 1) you're not black and 2) you don't agree with them on something that is a "black issue" that you don't think is a really huge deal as they do. I mean it's the same shit in a different flavor. I haven't ran into Enzom21 in any sort of discussion because I mostly stick to gaming now, but I doubt he's any different from them and his brand is just the same thing just readily more apparent.

The mainstream doesn't give a shit about reddit drama. Especially outside the US.

But VR isn't going anywhere to begin with for now. It's gonna take another couple of years at least.

My decision to not step into VR yet has been vindicated.

Real life, I am with you a little while longer at least.

Summer Lesson looks good though  :doge

Luckey supporting Trump aside, do people actually think that this is going to hurt chances that VR is going to go mainstream?

 *Disclaimer: I don't know about the organization that Luckey is allegedly funding or pretty much anything beyond Milo's vague actions of being a terrible human being. Nor do I want to read 8 Reddit walls-of-text to find out*

 Just got an email of one of Jason's tweets that links to an article that claims Valve and Facebook need to quadruple their investments into "diversity".

 The article doesn't offer a solution to promote diversity and it seems like a confusing proposition.

 First, because I'm not sure how they'd exactly promote diversity with VR that would call for a dedicated budget. I'd imagine if they wanted to be seen as diverse they'd just use a non-White male set of actors in presentations/videos/billboards which, due to the unfortunate realities of minority actors, might actually cost less.

 Second, because I'm not exactly sure why this is needed. I mean, it would be cool and effective to see a diverse group of people using VR, but not exactly as a PR stunt to cover a feigned backlash against the VR industry. People don't really know Luckey, Oculus, or about this entire situation. So essentially they're calling for companies, even those not involved in this situation, to take money out of dev costs out of their own volition and into a nebulous "diversity w/ VR" fund for a nontroversy about a techie libertarian funding an anti-Hillary organization.
wait what? Are you insinuating Milo is not a terrible person/his actions don't warrant the hate he receives?
