Is obvious to me that leakers have “lifespans” (how long before their friends at companies get kicked out or stop talking to them). I think some people at RE can treat leakers unfairly but also is clear that most of RE treats them like gods until they start getting stuff wrong.

The only real leaker that started to rub me the wrong way is Dusk Golem because how self destructive he is and how is willing to throw his sources under the buss because he really wants the internet asspat points.

Entrement is such an idiot if he thinks this is not concerning at all.

Pretty sure that applies to everything on the internet.

How you cut through the crap is what matters, and how easy the search engine makes it. TikTok could certainly do a lot to make that part better and to protect users from misinformation, but I can totally understand why it's becoming a preferred method for some people.

But you fuckers don’t do that…

Jeff won't ever talk about a leak again without actually double checking and confirming their rumors or information they heard.

5 minutes later...

As for Metroid Prime Remake, he's checked yet again, he's still under the assumption that it's coming out this holiday

sure jan... errmm jeff

he himself, is speculating that the Switch Pro (if it's a thing AGAIN this is a GUESS) would be 2023. This could explain a lot of Nintendo's weirdness regarding announcing games because this would mean they're probably still trying to figure out what's next

What 'weirdness', Nintendo announced Fire Emblem: Engage(January), Kirby's Return to Dream Land(February), Zelda's title and release date(May) and Pikmin 4 bub

Nintendo probably wanted BOTW2's title reveal to be a big moment and not have anything bad surrounding that announcement.

It really isn’t. Most of the hangups with TikTok are grounded in xenophobia, full stop.* TikTok has a faster “zero to white supremacy” meter, if you will, than many other platforms just due to the way shorter content functions and webs out, but TikTok is otherwise not that different. There’s bullshit there but also plenty of helpful communities and folks. Neurodivergent communities are thriving on TikTok and the platform is also helping with organizers in the labor movement.

It’s like any other platform. There’s good and there’s bad and we need to make sure people learn to tell the difference.

Could the platform do more? Sure. But again that’s all platforms.

Every social media creator is just “some dude” until they build a following.

*if you compare most of the security concerns people talk about because TikTok is Chinese, they also apply to other SM platforms, but the same techniques are more alarming because China. There are some more legit concerns, but not what most people talk about.

What the hell are you even insinuating? I'm comparing it to an actual google search, which will provide you with actual news sources and scholarly work. Meanwhile tictok, like twitter and youtube, is filled with influencers looking to make a name for themselves. So fuck off with your shitty accusations. Don't use social media to do actual research.

I’d love to hear what you think I was insinuating. You think I’m calling you xenophobic? Nah. I will, however, make the argument that xenophobia is a thread that wends through much of TikTok criticism and many don’t even realize when they parrot it. So if you want something clear, I’d tell you that maybe you should slow your roll before criticizing a platform whose name you can’t even render correctly, because it makes you look like an uninformed old man yelling at clouds. But you’d probably just tell me to fuck off again.
So no, I didn’t call you xenophobic. I don’t usually bother insinuating. I simply say it if I think it is the case.

You know well what you did, and what you continually do what with your petty snipes and barbs. I'll be taking my own advice and putting your horrible self on ignore. Good bye forever.

I remember him first coming onto the scene and he had to fight and push back against criticism as an out and proud gay man on late night TV back in the 90s so to hear this now is disappointing to say the least.

People have quoted him in the past because he’s generally been reliable with Microsoft stuff. He was the first one to report the two console plan for this generation

How can you be the "first one to report" something that's been the standard for how many console generations and Microsoft never gave any indication of stopping? And how long after Microsoft declared their intent to make "Xbox" an overarching brand that's independent of specific hardware.

Yes, needing to attend to ailing family members was clearly a smokescreen. Microsoft forced her out due to Halo’s development problems being hers and hers alone, just like how Disney is about to force Kathleen Kennedy out due to everything wrong with Star Wars being her fault. No, it’s not telling that women in leadership roles in male-dominated entertainment fields always seem to end up with weird targets on their backs from internet nerds!

Can we not.

Opposing views on things like human rights and politics (which largely boil down to human rights) do not constitute a "difference of opinion". Someone liking strawberry ice cream while I don't is a difference of opinion.

Thinking that some people are "less than" because they are gay, trans, non-white, etc, or that people don't deserve basic medical care because they are poor are not "opinions" that deserve to be entertained or respected, and the people who view the world like this deserve to get dragged for it.

How is this so difficult for people to understand?

I like the elasticity he shows in the very first sentence. Views on human rights aren't opinions, how do you know which views are about human rights? Everything is.

Then in the second paragraph he starts imputing motives, that certain views show evidence of thinking others are "less than", views I'm sure are not simply any view he disagrees with.

And then from there he's taken an extra step into his requirements for acceptable discourse, he's demanding others have a duty to not only research his own views on "human rights", but all other persons entire set of views and then from there also determine their unspoken motives all to ensure that these people who hold non-opinions are never platformed.

Just to make clear, Kekistan (an obvious mashup of kek and -istan countries, nothing "white supremacist" or "alt-right") existed for at least an entire year before Sargon discovered it:

On 4chan, the name "Kekistan" has been suggested for various imaginary geographic locations many times since as early as December 2015, when a flag with the filename "kekistan.jpg" was submitted to the /int/ (international) board.[7] On December 14th, 2016, a thread regarding buying an island in the Caribbean was submitted to /pol/, to which several users suggested the land be named "Kekistan" (shown below).[6]

On January 30th, 2017, YouTuber Sargon_of_Akkad tweeted that "shitposters meet the British govs criteria of an ethnicity," claiming he would register the group on the British census (shown below, left).[9] After asking followers what the ethnicity should be named, he settled on "Kekistani," describing the fictional group as a "disparate and dispossessed people"

In his 2019 book Perfect Sound Whatever, comedian James Acaster called Fantano's best albums of 2016 list "a real music fan's Top 50" and said of Fantano "perhaps more than anybody else, he appreciates how the reviewer's role has changed since the internet became a thing [...] The job of a reviewer used to be telling people what's worth their money but now it's telling people what's worth their time."
