| _AdjI_ 10/03/18 11:07:38 AM #31 | Zikten posted... I mean if you are literally not moving, I don't see why you can't text. If you really aren't moving, and can guarantee that you won't be for a solid chunk of time (i.e. at a stop light or when stopped by construction)? Sure. If you're moving very slowly, or don't know when you'll start moving again? That's a great way to add to the congestion with your own accident. |

| Topic | Making sexual harassment claims that are over 30 years old. |
| _AdjI_ 09/30/18 6:06:34 PM #255 | Brocknoth posted... I'm not saying it's ok by ANY means but these mistakes shouldn't haunt a person for the rest of their life. That's a position that can potentially be applied to any crime, but I feel that it's very important to make a distinction between not having something haunt you forever and never having to take responsibility for it. Anyone who assaults anyone else should face the consequences for doing so. Ideally, that'll happen immediately, but if it doesn't, it's fair game to apply those consequences later, even if that will jeopardize their career (especially so in the case of somebody as influential as a supreme court judge). That's also not to say the only way to take responsibility for a crime is to go to jail for it. If somebody who committed an assault then proceeded to support the victim through the recovery process, or otherwise right the wrong and earn forgiveness, pressing charges and seeking jail time years after that sequence of events would be unreasonable. But you have to do something. Nobody should expect to be forgiven for a crime unless they've genuinely worked to earn that forgiveness. |

TP already had a pretty orchestral soundtrack, if memory serves. My impression of the TP remaster (never played it) was that it really didn't change all that much, though. It was very much a matter of pumping out a quick, easy remake to try and flesh out the WiiU's dwindling release schedule. |

"Ask her" doesn't have to mean "ask really awkwardly and then start crying if you get rejected." You're going to feel stupid if you waste this potential opportunity entirely, so just go for it. Worst case scenario, you have just as much of a girlfriend as you have now. |

It is indeed easy to call people stupid for thinking that hanging an effigy of a black man from a tree as a halloween decoration is okay. Such people tend to be pretty stupid, after all. Playing devil's advocate is all well and good, and can be a fun intellectual exercise, but when that means defending somebody who depicted a lynched black man as a festive decoration, it's probably time to stop. SmokeMassTree posted... Yellow posted...SmokeMassTree posted...If it was a white person there would be no issue Hanging a black person from a tree is specifically meant to invoke the image of black people being lynched, thereby making it a racially targeted threat (i.e. hate speech). Hanging anyone else from a tree is just hanging a person. Hanging non-black people is still bad, obviously, but it doesn't carry any specific threatening connotations, and is consistent with the morbid themes that are common in halloween decorations. |

| Topic | Switch > PC |
| _AdjI_ 09/22/18 11:24:17 AM #134 | DPsx7 posted... It kind of is because as you keep changing the hardware and OS, your old games break. Which is no less true of consoles. If you replace an N64 with a Gamecube, you won't be able to play your N64 games. If you want to be able to play games that rely on old hardware, don't change your hardware. That applies equally to PC's and consoles, though even then consoles are the worse offenders because PC hardware changes often don't introduce issues (especially these days; anything back to about Windows XP is usually compatible with modern systems). DPsx7 posted... As for the second point it's not that simple. We haven't lost paid content but have lost free content and the point I'm making is they have the ability to - it COULD happen. Sure, it could happen. Valve could, on a whim, decide to revoke 67 million users' libraries entirely. Presuming that each of those users has spent an average of $100 (which is probably actually a pretty conservative estimate), though, they'd then be staring a $6.7 billion class action lawsuit in the face. There's a good chance they'd win, since the EULA does legally permit them to revoke access to people's games for any reason (which is no less true of physical games), but that'd be an awfully expensive lawsuit to fight, and when the dust had settled they'd never make another cent because nobody would trust them. Could they? Sure. But will they? Almost certainly not, and citing that possibility as a reason to steer clear of Steam and digital sales entirely is ridiculously paranoid. DPsx7 posted... They claim to but they probably don't know what they're doing. You don't really need a lot of expertise to be able to answer the questions "am I playing this game?" and "am I connected to the Internet?". The idea that the people who are able to get Steam working offline are the ones that *don't* know what they're doing is kind of funny. Do I doubt that you couldn't get it to work in 2006? No, actually. Do I think you're a fool for insisting that it still won't work despite over a decade of updates to the platform and dozens of people telling you that it does? Absolutely. |
| Topic | Telltale Games is shutting down |
| _AdjI_ 09/22/18 11:08:29 AM #34 | Zeus posted... I find the news surprising, considering that they were seemingly a pretty popular dev. Thinking about it, it doesn't actually surprise me that much. They had a big surge in popularity as they basically brought point-and-click adventure games back into mainstream spotlight and had a couple of major hits, but that novelty has long since faded, and they're very much a one-trick pony as far as genres go. Toss in that their big schtick has been to make games around established IP's, which requires them to purchase expensive licenses, and I can see how they ran into problems. |
| Topic | Switch > PC |
| _AdjI_ 09/21/18 10:02:25 AM #100 | DPsx7 posted... once you buy a console it doesn't go bad. It still plays games years later. That's no less true of PC's, especially now that consoles predominantly have optical and hard drives (and therefore moving parts that can fail) instead of being solid state. Hardware wears out, but until it does, it'll keep playing games, no matter what sort of system it is. DPsx7 posted... And the games WILL work, none of this messing with compatibility crap like PC has. It's very rare to have compatibility issues with any game made for an OS later than Windows 98. Certainly, XP onward tends to work with no hassle, and even older stuff can be playable with a little fiddling. Meanwhile, no amount of (legal) fiddling will allow me to play a GC game on my Switch (short of buying a port that they release). There's no messing with compatibility with consoles because there's no compatibility to mess with. Comparing console backwards compatibility to PC is laughable. |

Provided waiting until the third trimester is entirely your own fault and not a consequence of processing delays that totally weren't meant to put the abortion off until a time when it could be legally refused, that is. Processing delays like that are lame. |

| _AdjI_ 09/20/18 12:35:10 PM #160 | Kyuubi4269 posted... I said a fairly arbitrary range and Sunny made no distinction which he was doubling of if he was rounding up like you think it's fair game in math. Which is why I picked the rough midpoint of that range for the sake of easy math. Now that you've seen me demonstrate how to solve this problem, you can apply your new knowledge to determine the full range he could have been referring to and develop a more comprehensive understanding of what you've read. Yay! Personal growth! Kyuubi4269 posted... And a dice roll is 50/50, you either win or you lose. That's nice, but nothing about that response shows that you understand the fairly simple point I was making. Everyone has knowledge and expertise outside of their job. This is blatantly obvious. Their job does not indicate knowledge of anything but their job, though. Anything else can't be presumed from their job. Kyuubi4269 posted... It's not picking and choosing Yes it is. If you think that making more than Sunny makes you more credible than him, then you must also think that anyone who makes more than you is more credible than you. If you do not, then you are picking and choosing when logic is applicable, and you just can't do that. Again, you'd have a much easier time of this if you just admitted that what you said was idiotic and apologized. At this point, you're getting worse than ErikP, and that's never a good thing. Kyuubi4269 posted... My job produces a long-standing product, it's pretty easy to quantify a central london immensely expensive building, and it's easy to rank it above breakfast. Again, you're conflating value to your employer with value to society. The building you help make will indeed make the property owner more money than Sunny's cooking will make the restaurant owner. That's all you can say. The value to people on a society-wide scale is significantly harder to determine. Most individuals benefit more from a good breakfast than they will from some new office tower that they'll probably never set foot in. |

| _AdjI_ 09/18/18 6:00:27 PM #110 | Kyuubi4269 posted... Yeah no. You don't really get to dismiss the need for internal logical consistency like that. It's kind of a constant thing. If you don't have internal logical consistency, you don't make sense. Kyuubi4269 posted... If you start with the physical strength of a country or a military or a police force, you go everywhere. Except not really. Means of production and whatnot. If you want to control people, brute force is an exceedingly inefficient way to do it. Kyuubi4269 posted... So now you're implying that hamsters are a simple subjugation target, but are not subjugated by brute force? While I think your whole argument is ridiculous, I'm annoyed by your lacking of internal continuity. Hyperbole, yo. Though yeah, you are going to need more nuance than brute force to get a hamster to do what you want. I guess it's more literal than I thought. How convenient. ItsSoHot posted... A serf? That's pretty intense talk for someone who is also in a job that employs physical labor instead of being say, a biologist. Yeah, that part kinda puzzles me. Being classist while working in such an unambiguously blue-collar job isn't exactly the best demonstration of self-awareness. Steel work is no less of a skilled trade than cooking is, certainly, but to act like he's higher on the social totem pole for being in a different trade is pretty bizarre. |
| Topic | Switch: TV vs. Handheld mode |
| _AdjI_ 09/18/18 5:51:08 PM #4 | Probably about even, though I'm not sure where exactly the split falls. I'm kind of surprised by how useful handheld mode has been; I figured that, where it's too big to fit in most pockets, I wouldn't really use it as a portable. Handheld mode was great for bringing it when I was staying at my girlfriend's place, though, as well as giving me the freedom to take it away from the TV if needed (i.e. somebody else was using it). I generally prefer TV play for most games, but I do rather like how seamlessly I can switch. |

And then turned around and tried to invalidate that exact logic when it was used against you. You yourself proclaimed to the world that your logic doesn't work; you can't exactly keep trying to pretend it does. Kyuubi4269 posted... It's literally all that matters. None of them matter without the backing, it's just fluff. Not in terms of practical application. You want to leverage some sort of power? If you start with physical strength, you won't get very far. Ergo, it doesn't matter. Kyuubi4269 posted... What's with these lazy insults? I shift structural steel all day, my job automatically puts me in the upper end of physical strength. Subjugation's a whole lot more complex than how much you can lift. You don't have the nuance for it. |
| Topic | Switch > PC |
| _AdjI_ 09/18/18 2:18:17 PM #28 | Metalsonic66 posted... The Wii and the U had great exclusives but very, very few of them. Which is why they functioned best as secondary systems. PC covers all the multiplat stuff, and does it better than any console option, making it the best choice for a primary system. All you're missing out on then are PS/Xbox exclusive titles. You could probably make a case for the PS3 being a serious competitor there, but not the PS4, 360, or Xbone just yet (and with most of Xbone's pittance of an exclusive library coming to PC as well, that's not likely to improve). There are enough games out there that you really don't need a lot of games for your secondary system. Might as well go with quality over quantity, then. DPsx7 posted... Discs cost less don't forget. Somebody's going to point out that digital games go on sale more reliably and conveniently than discs do (and therefore cost less, on average), and then you're going to say something like "the true cost of digital is that Steam will blow up your computer and steal your games and shave your dog," and then everyone is going to laugh at you. Calling it now. |

You said "salary means literally everything when it comes to credibility," then proceeded to come up with a bunch of reasons why Magus having a greater salary than you doesn't make him more credible. You'd have a much easier time of this if you just admitted that your initial premise was idiotic and apologized for saying such a silly thing. Kyuubi4269 posted... And why does that control my livelihood? Because the government (supported by the vast majority) stops me by force from making a living by forcing weaker people to submit. Oh hey, there's that point again. Your individual physical power means nothing in the face of political, legal, and financial power. Sure, physical force is the fundamental basis for the application of those other forms of power, but that really doesn't matter much. You don't have to dig that deep when trying to leverage power over other people. Also, don't kid yourself. The government isn't the one keeping you from making a living by subjugating anyone. You couldn't subjugate a hamster. |

That's pretty standard business protocol, and is quite reasonable. Keeping them around as a courtesy in case your system happens to break while your subscription lapses is a reasonable good will gesture, but if they're going to let you restore from your backups without paying for them, they might as well not charge in the first place (which is certainly a position that can be argued, but it's beside the point). |

As you said, nobody's buying a system for one game, especially not one game that's had virtually no news on it. Anyone who does really only has themselves to blame for making such a poor decision, such that saying that they were conned into buying the system by MP4's reveal is a major stretch. OhhhJa posted...

| Topic | Hot take: I think the Xenoblade series is mediocre. |
| _AdjI_ 09/16/18 11:41:23 AM #11 | JTekashiro posted... I only played the one on 3DS for about ten hours but I would say "mediocre" is being way to generous. The battle system was just awful, you just kind of waited to attack while running around. I will say that, of the three, the first one was the worst for taking a while for the battle system to come into its own. It's great once you have enough arts that you constantly have something to do and can more reliably weave combos together, but waiting nine seconds between Back Slashes with nothing else to use is just tedious. The other two give a little more variety earlier on, which means there's a bit less progression in that regard, but it makes the early game go a bit more smoothly. |

At the end of the day it's mandatory if you want to play the games that require it for online functionality so I can understand why some people would buy it, but let's not pretend it isn't an awful value proposition. I mean, $20 a year to play games online isn't bad. It's a whole lot more expensive than we've come to expect from Nintendo, especially with how long it's taken them to get this service together (it was supposed to be up and running by *last* fall, with early adopters just getting a few free months of Splatoon and ARMS, so Switch owners shouldn't have had time to get used to free online for the system), but it's not a bad price. It's just that the incentives they're offering alongside online play really kinda suck (with the exception of cloud saves, which would be a nice little luxury if not for the lack of manual backups that makes them kind of necessary). |
