Relatively benign interview with Todd. Seems like it won’t be contentious or have any controver-

Just a warning about the interviewer - he has had Jordan Peterson on as a guest before (plus thinks somewhat highly of Elon Musk based on what I saw in a previous episode with John Carmack), so be wary when watching this video as your YouTube recommendations are going to veer pretty far to the right after you're done with the interview.

Never mind.

  

EDIT:

I love Jordan Peterson. He helped me in a lot of ways

Oof, which one of you derailed this?

EDITEDIT:

Oh shit!

I'm not American and I'm not interested in politics so I don't know what kind of extremist, righty things he said.

But not gonna lie that many people in my entourage, school etc... Recommended him a lot for Self development, psychology etc... And same his self development tips helped me a lot.

I think he talk in that way.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/paste-magazine-the-30-best-games-of-2022.659287/page-8#post-97341988

Highly unlikely as I'm unsure I've played 30 games ever better than Ragnarok.  It appears they aren't huge fans of the series as they rated GoW 2018 which was a general consensus GOTY as #26 four years ago.



While I admire this list for being diverse and going against the grain of conventional wisdom or consensus in many ways (and yes, more diverse than my capacity/time allows), sometimes consensus is consensus for a reason.  Its impossible to play Ragnarok IMO and not realize you are playing at or near the current pinnacle of what the gaming medium has to offer in terms of production values, storytelling, voice acting, gameplay optimization and refinement.  That's not to say its going to be the best experience or everyone's favorite, but again, c'mon you're telling me this metacritic 94 blockbuster game isn't among the top 30 of the year?  Perhaps its too cliche or prosaic for them, like the video game equivalent of a big Marvel or Star Wars movie release, but to me this is being snobish or contrarian to the point of absurdity.







And again - if you are publication putting a list out there and expecting it not to be discussed and debated, and critiqued, then seriously what are we doing here?  This article is written as entertainment and I have as much of a right to critique it as they do to critique this year's crop of games.  (and again, for the most part I really like this list and its a fun one).

Imagine, you're in Hawaii. A volcano has just gone off. You've run from your home. You stop in a 7-11 for some supplies and think, "well, a Snickers would be nice..."

I imagine lots of things. It's cool that he paid back the place he stole from when he was little.

Thankfully I returned the three pogs I stole unintentionally (they fell into a shirt pocket while I was digging through the 'pog bin') when I was little, because I can't imagine how many pogs I'd have to buy now to equate to the price they were then.

he left all the snickers he bought for the store to give away to people. idiot.

Do you REALLY think this person was being super serious and wasn't just telling a light hearted joke that mis-interpreted the situation?

I mean if you don't find it funny.. that's fine.. but.. they were just joking, not "running their mouth" or "popping off."

he made a very specific statement in the tweet which was assholish to prove a point, but made for the specific reason that the conditions were already met

flint's water met various standards in terms of being fixed over the course of several years, AFAIK at the time of the tweet already exceeding FDA regulations, and today is supposedly better quality than any other american city

and there are STILL morons in the replies claiming it isn't fixed

China looked at all cyberpunk media and used them as a blueprint.

This is tangential, but I'm pretty sure that cyberpunk is in a large park a product of the descendants of white colonialists expressing a fear that their colonialism of Asia would come back and bite them. Europeans literally invented publicly traded corporations for the explicit purpose of exploiting Asia's resources.

User Banned (2 Weeks): Misogynistic Rhetoric; Mansplaining

Not a woman, but responding to the notion of "it makes me feel pretty". I do wonder whether or not it actually achieves the desired result of looking pretty. I don't tend to find women as a whole look more put together or attractive than men of approximately equivalent build, class, fashion sense, and non-beauty personal care choices. You can clearly point to some cargo shorts man and say he looks like a mess and his partner looks good, but it's not on account of makeup, it's on account of the whole package.

Thinking through makeup, I find men and women have pretty similar looking eyes even when women wear mascara, eyeshadow, or eyeliner. Styled eyeliner like winged or cat eyeliner almost always ruins the shape of the eyes. Even nice mascara tends to look clumpy. False lashes look extremely dumb. I don't find women have better bone structure than men even though more women contour. I don't find women have nicer looking smiles than men despite lipstick. I don't find women have clearer skin than men despite foundation or concealer (foundation also seems to cause more acne than it conceals). I don't find women have nicer eyebrows than men despite pencilling. Blush can sometimes look good when people are wearing glasses but rarely without.

It's a continuum rather than a binary thing, but to me in general the further along the continuum the worse the look. It often seems like people make the choice to want a statement piece, but end up trying to do a statement everything. Like wearing too much jewelry, sometimes it's better to draw attention to one or two things that you like the most. In particular post Youtube beauty vlogging the trend seems to be towards more dramatical, theatrical, stage-y makeup. It definitely looks striking in a staged photo. I get that it's aspirational. In cases like drag it makes sense. Everyday, though, less so.

By contrast, I do positively notice hair care, moisturizing/skincare, clothing choices, glasses, jewelry choices, dental care, gait and posture, nail polish, etc. And while I don't love massive amounts of botox, I do notice cosmetic stuff like dermal abrasion, skin tightening, and the benefits of good skincare. So I get wanting to put effort into your look and I think doing so pays dividends. I think it's great to want to feel pretty. I just find that makeup doesn't seem to achieve that very often. Everyone can make their own choices and if it makes you feel good, good for you. But I don't subscribe to the view that we can't have aesthetic opinions on other peoples style choices.

People complain about other people's lack of awe at high donation amounts all the time, and the refutation is usually "They're doing more than you are!"

Do people who throw out this thought-terminating cliche ever stop to think that volunteering for a charity is actually a luxury? Even the time needed to be spent on volunteering is dependent upon your occupation, your able-bodied mess, your income, access to reliable transportation, if you have any dependents, etc.

I wasn't able to do the volunteer work I wanted to do until I got a job that allowed me the wiggle room to show up. But apparently to some people that doesn't matter; my physical inability to do so meant I was not in a position to critique rich people who don't have to think about that shit and and can do whatever they want because they're rich, wherein the point of being rich is to be insulated from normal fucking problems.

And frankly, you don't really know what anyone else is doing with their time anyway. No one online ever sincerely asks for receipts; it's just assumed everyone is a keyboard warrior. But everyone in this thread could lay bare any and all charitable deeds they do and it would never be enough because it's always going to pale in comparison to rich people. Because poor and middle class folks stuck on the treadmill of capitalism largely don't have the means to do so without pretty much dedicating their entire life to a cause.

In short, you can congratulate The Rock for doing a nice thing without shitting on the people without the means to do what he can do with "Well, you're not doing anything!" Like, fuck off with that shit.

You missed the point. Again, I’m surprised you’re an admin. Are you always this perpetually angry?

I really don’t get the shaming here. Nobody is shaming anyone but you shaming the Rock for doing a good deed. I don’t care if it’s staged or not, he still spent the money. Does it drain his cash flow? No, but he still chose to do it. It’s certainly a better deed than whatever politicians do in America for press.

The glass half empty people that constantly have a stick up their asses need to reevaluate themselves here.

This is literal psych ward level stuff, speaking from experience. Even just things like casually having a full mask over his face and speaking in this incongruent, over-articulated tone, those are kinds of things that people in the depths of delusion and psychosis will do.

Dude's mind is gone, it's terrible he's in a position to be listened to by anyone, even if his audience is a fraction of what it once was. Not going to play the "he needs help" card because him and his influence are toxic trash, but shame on the people close to him for enabling this and not working to get him committed.

What the fuck somebody is supposed to do if you friend or family member doesn’t want help? Asking to get them committed is not easy task not mention it can emotionally devastating. It sounds like, for years, he had a lot of people calling him out behind scenes but the dude never listened.

I don’t know why volunteering genocide of the poor and working class was even brought up, I guess was my point

"Volunteering genocide" is the sort of craven and hollow self serving virtue signaling that plagues this thread. Genocide has a fucking definition, and its a pretty meaningful and serious one too, for you to just be throwing it around because the monopoly man is playing chicken with the country.

You're the worst type of fucking liberal. You're a self serving wage slave with class anxiety

Is Deepwater's account finally going to be shotgunned to death?

I'm surprised he hasn't been in the Chinese protests thread telling us about China's self-developed vaccine and how it's the most democratic country in Asia.

How can it not be the most democratic country? It's literally in the name, just like North Korea!!

This is literal psych ward level stuff, speaking from experience. Even just things like casually having a full mask over his face and speaking in this incongruent, over-articulated tone, those are kinds of things that people in the depths of delusion and psychosis will do.

Dude's mind is gone, it's terrible he's in a position to be listened to by anyone, even if his audience is a fraction of what it once was. Not going to play the "he needs help" card because him and his influence are toxic trash, but shame on the people close to him for enabling this and not working to get him committed.

What the fuck somebody is supposed to do if you friend or family member doesn’t want help? Asking to get them committed is not easy task not mention it can emotionally devastating. It sounds like, for years, he had a lot of people calling him out behind scenes but the dude never listened.

Nothing. He lives on his own and supports himself.  He hasn't broken the law. He hasn't physically hurt anyone.  These people worship authoritarian cops that would wisk someone away at the behest of opposing beliefs.  They're the true brown shirts.   You can't get people committed to psych wards who haven't hurt anyone because they say things that piss you off.  Lord knows there'd be grounds to get Nepenthe forcibly committed to a psychiatric hospital for doing the exact same shit Kanye is doing with Jews that she does with white people, if that were the case.  Nepenthe wishes she had a Kanye with immense wealth and influence saying this shit about white people.

Here we go:

Stewart's entire statement about this on Colbert was so disingenuous. Stewart defended Chappelle's transphobia so he knows if he went hard on this then he would be called a hypocrite so now he's backed into a corner and has to basically give a pass to all hate speech. So he'll just be glib from here on out.

“Chappelle, Stewart and Joanne are nazis like Kanye West because transexuals and Freeze Peaches!”

There is no need for mental gymnastics or "figuring out excuses", really. What Kanye said today was disgusting and crazy, but i'll still wake up tomorrow and listen to The College Dropout on my way to the gym.

fucking surreal. did that really just happen? Just have an awful feeling after subjecting myself to all that.

ye got some personal beefs/issues that he's extending outwards because he's a hypocritical incoherent attention-seeking narcissist. He and Elon have that big perturbed divorced dad energy going except Ye carries the vibes of the mentally unwell person ranting in the street. He needs help/therapy to get past his demons/issues but refuses so can't really have any sympathy at all at this point.

The bigotry is really just infantile and it's only sad/infuriating that these fellow fascists are way too happy to give him their platform to get eyeballs to spew their own brands of hatred and let him rant away. He's a useful tool to get their own destructive messages out.

It's a dangerous road toward fascism we're going down and it wouldn't be wrong to be extremely alarmed going forward.

So close yet so far.

it's also reductive and incorrect: while lawson was influential in early console engineering and deserves some credit, seems that he didn't invent any of it personally

instead he was sent by his company to look at a completed prototype for cartridge-based gaming others had invented and said "wow yeah that looks great, I bet we could sell it"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairchild_Channel_F

In 1974, Alpex Computer Corporation employees Wallace Kirschner and Lawrence Haskel developed a home video game prototype consisting of a base unit centered on an Intel 8080 microprocessor and interchangeable circuit boards containing ROM chips that could be plugged into the base unit. The duo attempted to interest several television manufacturers in the system, but were unsuccessful. Next, they contacted a buyer at Fairchild, which sent engineer Jerry Lawson to evaluate the system. Lawson was impressed by the system and suggested Fairchild license the technology, which the company did in January 1976.

https://www.fastcompany.com/3040889/the-untold-story-of-the-invention-of-the-game-cartridge

After all, a key piece of the system was still missing: the cartridge itself.

Alpex’s prototype had always included a way to exchange games via plug-in modules. But the modules were fragile and awkward. Fairchild had to envision a consumer-friendly way to package them, a job that fell primarily to industrial designer Nick Talesfore.

Inserting and removing socketed electronic assemblies had, until then, been an activity reserved for trained technicians, engineers, and military personnel. Taking a sensitive circuit board and putting it into the hands of a consumer–who might be prone to stepping on it, dunking it in the toilet, or leaving it baking in the sun–posed a considerable design challenge. Obviously, the board needed a protective shell of some kind.

Talesfore zeroed in immediately on the familiar form of the 8-track tape cartridge, an audio recording format which gained significant traction in the 1970s through its use in car audio systems. Relatively rugged, easy to insert and remove with one hand, and vibration-resistant, the 8-track tape proliferated where the comparatively delicate vinyl record feared to tread. He chose a shape and size for his new game cartridge enclosure that closely matched the 8-track tape standard. Then he added ribbing around the edges for improved grip, and selected a bright yellow plastic color to make a statement. Cartridges were the true star of the show, he figured, so they deserved to stand out.

[Boredfrom]

Okay

[Uncle]

Okay

sorry, misattribution bugs me, since I've seen how it passes into "it is known" territory online until the real history starts to get hard to find

lawson was an awesome guy and deserves a google doodle and to be celebrated, but he didn't invent the concept of a game cartridge

User Banned (2 Weeks): Armchair Diagnoses of Mental Health

He isn't well, there's a difference between his narcisisitic side and what's he doing now, this isn't bipolarity, all signs point that he is slowly loosing his mind. Right now he mumbles, says things that lead to nowhere and is just resentful, before he had a logic and would come off clean in his thoughts. I feel like he is off every type of med that was ever given to him and his mind is slowly decaying, feels bad watching him in this condition.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/kanye-west-launches-white-lives-matter-line-for-yeezys-up2-says-in-alex-jones-interview-hitler-had-value.639399/page-90#post-97401958

User Banned (2 Weeks): Excusing antisemitism

He's basically trying to love without conditions, trying to literally love everyone, enemies, friends, etc.

In his mind he's doing his best to emulate his understanding of Christ's core tenants.

They kind of try to emphasize this point when Alex asked him if he loved Jeffrey Dahmer, Mao, etc.

Judge not lest ye be judged, hence him mentioning throwing stones at Glass House's multiple times.

At one point he asked Alex to let him channel, I believe he is understanding some of what he's doing as him channeling the holy Spirit acting in God's will.

There's more that can be said but I don't have time at the moment.

To be clear I'm not supporting what he's saying, just conveying what I'm observing. Even in his practice of those core tenants he's doesn't appear to be asking who is being hurt by doing what he's doing.

I know this is my 3rd post essentially saying the same exact thing, but it's amazing to watch this sort of lack of self-awareness in real time.  They are so incredulous that Kanye believes things about Jews that they think he's losing his mind; that he's just in a psychosis and yet they believe and spew the same, exact, thing down to the letter about another race of people.  It's almost unbelievable to see people so fucking stupid.
