The inability to rewind without activating ads was what really got me back in the day. Nobody wants to call over their friend to watch something cool/funny, only to have the clip trigger an ad when they restart it.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 days ago:
I wish that I’d screenshotted it, but I’ve had one outrageously long 1+ hr. ad on Youtube. The thing was literally a feature length infomercial, I thought that autoplay had carried onto the next videos in my playlist and couldn’t believe that it was an ad when I saw the length. For shit like that to have slipped through Youtube’s “quality control” even once speaks volumes - how in the Hell did someone submit an ad longer than a Saturday morning cartoon and have it slotted into the same category as 15 second toothpaste ads?

- Comment on Is it a prison break if the prisoners have been unjustly detained? Who decides when it is a hostage rescuse situation? 1 week ago:
Sure it, doesn’t, neither does the weather but it still tends to function based reliably predictable criteria. I’m describing the baseline definition because OP asked about whether or not it counts. Judges decide, and generally err based on constituent parts of the scenario qualify for established legal definitions.
- Comment on Is it a prison break if the prisoners have been unjustly detained? Who decides when it is a hostage rescuse situation? 1 week ago:
By legal standards, it’s my understanding that any unlawful release from custody is a “jail break” regardless of the conditions of incarceration. Unjust detainment is a kind of legal threshold intended to assign a determination of legality to any scenario where anyone is taken into custody by state officials or law enforcement, not someone’s opinion of whether or not it’s fair.

- Comment on EA Cancels Black Panther Game, Closes Cliffhanger Games - IGN 4 weeks ago:
I’ve been hearing it for years, the same as outright boycotts. It’s not that people don’t care, it’s that not enough people care for it to make a difference. For every person pissed about getting burned on a $60+ purchase for a dogshit game, there are 99 more who’ll eat it and move on without caring all that much. You’ve got to improve the content at home, where it counts without worrying about the drek getting turned out by large companies/studios. Invest in indie, or shop around is the best bet IMO.

I’ve had to bring this up elsewhere, but could we please stop making and reposting unnecessarily censored memes? The obscured word here is ‘FKN’, not even ‘fucking’. This isn’t Tiktok, these alterations are kind of gratuitous…

- Comment on Lady Gaga bomb plot: Thwarted plan lifts veil on the gamification of hate and gendered nature of online radicalization 5 weeks ago:
I’m not saying it’s reasonable per se, just that it’s not as rare as one might hope. People have been killed for much less all throughout history.
- Comment on Lady Gaga bomb plot: Thwarted plan lifts veil on the gamification of hate and gendered nature of online radicalization 5 weeks ago:
Was it? Ooh damn, that fits the profile to a “T” then. I don’t follow celebrity news, I guess that she’s a pretty staunch/vocal supporter of LGBT+ issues?
- Comment on Lady Gaga bomb plot: Thwarted plan lifts veil on the gamification of hate and gendered nature of online radicalization 1 month ago:
Valid point, I guess, but it’s not exactly the internet specifically that’s the source of the issue IMO. I’d say that people hating specific musicians whose music they don’t like/annoys them has been an issue for aeons, but it’s harder to completely escape their tunes now that it’s played practically everywhere 24/7 - mall PAs, the cell phones of people passing you in the street, etc.
The 'net is just the most recent forum to gripe about how annoying so-and-so’s music is, although in a sense it seems to have gotten more extreme in the vacuum provided by online forums. It would take quite a bit for a conversation about an annoying lutist, opera diva, etc. to escalate to plans for murder in the 1st-19th centuries by comparison, despite it presumably happening a few times probably.
- Comment on People have private conversations on speaker phone but if I participate then I'm the crazy one 1 month ago:
Make random jungle and peacock noises close to them. Nothing makes them want a more private conversation than the person on the other end saying that it sounds like they were lying about where they are. Sex moaning and sloppy liquid pulching sound effects optional depending on others nearby.
