I don’t think an edit was necessary, but if you’re gonna edit it, he committed sexual assault against multiple probably-legal-at-the-time fans.
Occasionally broken by Arin being a music dork instead of a gaming dork, leading to magic like introducing him to Gen1 Pokemon designs.
… oh god that was nine years ago.
Crash Course was some good shit.
That one hurt.
I’ve forgotten who but I know one of their content creators was accused of either grooming or at least having inappropriate conversations with a or potentially multiple minors.
James Ryan Haywood did some penis crimes at Rooster Teeth conventions. Basically a dozen variations on “not technically rape.” With fans, of questionable age, on the company dime. As soon as credible accusations arose, his ass was gone, and the rest of Achievement Hunter had exactly one emotional-and-drunk livestream to say they were never going to acknowledge him for the rest of their lives.
His whole personality on-camera and in-game turns out to be really close to how he sincerely acts and thinks. He was not playing a heel.
Some people get addicted to being right all the time.
The general difference is that these bookmarks go away when re-opened. They’re an alternative to leaving a buttload of tabs open.
Not that guy. But: what people were promised was smartphone guts in a set-top box, for all the novel PSP-grade mobile titles that were limited by touchscreen controls and battery life. What was delivered was Not That. They turned the Kickstarter into a custom microconsole, which is a vulgar word in any context, because it means there’s no goddamn software. The central fucking point was to take advantage of everything on Google Play… or whatever the hell it was called that month. Instead you got a tiny selection of games which were forced to provide free demos. And you could play them with an abysmal controller, which was the one thing these geniuses were supposed to get right for free.
Considering I’ve seen it printed on booty shorts, yeah, probably not.
I only recently tossed a Handbook Of Christian Apologetics by Tacelli & Kreeft. I was never devout, let alone outright brainwashed into anti-science nonsense, but at the cusp of my reddit atheist phase I figured a question this big deserved a fair shake. So I got a big ol’ book of the best arguments anyone had. They all sucked. So that was that.
The one that made me put the book down and go ‘yep, atheist’ was “the argument from magic.” You think about moving your hand. Your hand moves by thought alone. Magic! Therefore, Jesus. I fucking wish I was exaggerating.
Took another decade to figure out the people pushing these arguments don’t actually give a shit about being right. The point is performing loyalty to the ingroup. There’s a conclusion, and it comes from people above you, so your job is to make whatever mouth noises get there. A monotheistic god is only the purest expression of that tribalist worldview.
I don’t care if the robot that speaks English read the entire library.
How else was it going to happen?
All while aiming to be cash you can e-mail, and failing at that because its high volatility and low speed make it a completely artificial commodities market with nearly zero real-world applications. It’s a technology that took off because Paypal is the devil and it is arguably worse.
Ban them.
Get rid of the entire business model. It’s an abuse. Games make you value arbitrary worthless nonsense - that is what makes them games. Attaching a dollar price to that imaginary form of value is a scam.
“Gondor has no king. Gondor needs no king. You piece of shit.”
Do soundtracks count?
“And I-IIII, will always love youuu-uuu, you piece of shit!”
Sodium-ion batteries are likely to be the obvious answer in another decade. Dirt cheap, abundant materials, competitive density.
It’s fine, he’s built like a mid-00s CGI zombie.
Infantalizing people for their own good --> infantalizing people as an insult.
More behavior you need to cut the fuck out.
Is anyone compartmentalizing a browser? There’s enough moving parts that keeping them monolithic is an obstacle. Nobody really needs the option to swap in their own CSS parser or JS transpiler or whatever, but competing implementations could allow independence without each requiring a whole separate version of the complete stack.
