I’m seeing this shit on nextdoor and LinkedIn now. Linkedin - the place where you earn brownie points by complimenting how your work bought you pizza is now filled with racist shit.

I’m also used to the stupid ass local racism of nextdoor. But now I’m seeing more right wing meme BS.

Cho Chang. is so fucking wild that her editor didn’t go, “Wtf?”

It would be more respectful if the forum user didn’t just spam that across hundreds of games. Then you click on the profile and they have 100 hours of TF2 and other f2p games.

Haha you know I’m a kojima fan!!

It happens depending on where you are.

In the East Coast? Mind your business.

In the West Coast:

Someone made conversation with me in the toilet. “Good water flow, yeah?” He said.

As a dude, most people only give me small talk, just to break the ice and explain nobody is a threat. But I can see as a woman, most small talk is a lead up to something else.

I’m not familiar with Beaverton and Private Eye as part of my core group of journalism from the future satirical news! Thanks for the heads up!

I like it, as a person who doesn’t really pay attention to most names in fiction, and primarily focuses on the story it’s trying to tell.

Don’t make it too obvious like “Busty LoveInterest” and “Villain McMustashface”.

“If you can’t cope with your product taking criticism, valid or otherwise, don’t waste your time peddling what you’ve made.”

One of the reviews, published in 2023, read, “cringe game, made by a liar”. The other, a review of Lawhead’s game Blue Suburbia posted in 2024, said: “A women [sic] who seeks to destroy other’s [sic] career made this. It’s very poorly put together. She also probably has dual Israeli citizenship with how pointy her nose is.”

So by your standards, she should have thought about being a woman?

Even worse is the constant harassment of indie devs.

Just constant “Is this AI?” And them demanding more and more evidence rather than letting the dev cook.

I was originally part of the “fuck the steam forums” because asshats would troll the forum to get steam emojis, which gave you some steam credit or something. So it was an incredible cesspool of shit.

But their last update made steam emojis worthless beyond being a extra status, and I think that’s making the forums more bearable.

Better mod tools. Better flagging of shit users. And maybe the steam forums can become a better place.

Because right now, if you want to talk to a fan of a indie game, you’re stuck finding some YouTube video comment or Reddit.

You people are really blaming billionaires?

• Large corporations paying low wages and poor working conditions is the fault of the large corporation!
• Complex tax avoidance schemes and lobby for low tax rates on wealth, inheritance, and capital gains is more of a tax issue!
• Governments cutting services for schools and social services cause of lack of tax revenue is more of a government issue!
• Buying political influence through campaign spending, lobbying, and media ownership isn’t illegal. Anybody can do it!
• Media and tech platforms that shape narratives, spread misinformation, and deepen polarization isn’t a billionaire issue. That’s a society issue!

• Buying things like private jets and space tourism while underfunded communities face climate disasters isn’t a billionaire’s fault. Those communities should really learn to balance their resources!

Granted, billionaires are the root cause of all those problems. But when you ignore that part, it’s really someone else’s fault!

I’m not following the intent of the text?

Is the tweet saying we should use AI to generate fake doorbell videos to mess with police/ICE surveillance?

Or is it saying that so many people willingly give their video up that it allows AI to generate fake doorbell videos?

I also assumed the number field was all that was needed.

I had fraudulent checks used under my name. And it was only caught because the thief signed my name “perfectly”. Where I purposely sign with extra scribbles.

After that experience, every check I wrote, I added something extra in the memo section only I would know. I could see someone being extra paranoid and using the “written” section as another test - like purposely misspelling words.

The editorial team has been crushing it! They started their physical newspaper again! My coworker has been bringing it to the break room and it’s still funny and well written. Less weird skeptic stuff, and more politics, but it’s what we need.

With any live game, the main measurement I look at is long term support.

I don’t play live games on Day 1.

A decade of watching games launch and fail only to spend 3-5 years of dev time to finally become good (FF14, FO76, All the open world games, no mans sky, Cyberpunk).

I played New World last year (4 years after launch) and it was awesome!

Pretty much.

If OP had something incriminating, they would already have the paperwork they need to grab it.

Police knocking on your door is hoping you would give them information to arrest you. Proper swat team breaking down your door means they already had it.

ICE doesn’t count. They’re not cops.

I’m proud to say that I block so many ads, this is the first time I’m seeing most of these names.

Oh, tell me how DEI led to a pro-AI stance/pro-NFT stance?

Tell me how DEI led to all the sexual harassment and bullying from the CCO and vice presidents. Did diversity do that?

Did DEI kick off the “Get comfortable not owning games” quote?

Is DEI in the room and one of the main voices to shut down servers to The Crew, where you couldn’t even play Single player anymore? And they then removed it out of everybody’s library?

Is DEI why the past 15 years of Ubisoft games come off like a checklist of features? Just massive maps of repetitive tasks from all their games?

I did the same. Everything about him screams “My ex and my shitty kid doesn’t speak to me”

That’s better than my Israeli coworker. Coffee and cigarette.
