Don’t you know? All gay relationships are NSFW, no matter what, kids CANNOT have their eyes exposed to two women holding hands, what if they start THINKING ABOUT GAY SEX???
oh wait it’s just people who literally cannot stop thinking about that projecting their feelings on literal children. Go figure.
- Comment on Riot Games Accused of Blocking Mastercard Discourse in VCT Chat 2 weeks ago:
This is not the thing a company who doesn’t care about the PR damage does.
You can’t censor everyone, Mastercard. You’re not putting that genie back in.
- Comment on what are in you're top 3 favourite games of all time? 2 weeks ago:
In no particular order:
- Megaman X
- UNDERTALE
- Call of Duty 4 (campaign, never played MP)
I just really like those three games. They’re all fun in their own ways and in the case of Undertale it shaped a huge part of my 20’s because it was through playing it that I learned to love humanity even with its bumps and scrapes. It kept me from turning into a full on misanthrope.
Honorable mentions go to GTA Online (I have almost 6000 hours in that game total, it’s my favorite pastime), Call of Duty Black Ops 2 (multiplayer), and Titanfall 2.
- Comment on Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 follows Battlefield 6's lead, will also require secure boot on PC 2 weeks ago:
Windows is always updating its Secure Boot protocols so it makes sense.
- Comment on Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 follows Battlefield 6's lead, will also require secure boot on PC 2 weeks ago:
Secure Boot is literally one toggle in the BIOS what are you talking about 😭
- Comment on Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 follows Battlefield 6's lead, will also require secure boot on PC 2 weeks ago:
Yeah I agree they’re both terrible in their own regards, but cheating has become such a profitable industry that I don’t see anything short of government regulations or extremely aggressive anti-cheat solving it.
- Comment on Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 follows Battlefield 6's lead, will also require secure boot on PC 2 weeks ago:
Honestly this isn’t a problem, since it’s simply looking at the checks Secure Boot makes when starting. The issue is still the deep root access. Altho, both BF6 and Cod’s anti-cheat only run when the game is on, so it’s uhh, less bad than something like Riot Vanguard.
Still terrible, tho.

I’m Brazilian actually, but I don’t appreciate organizations from ANYWHERE in the world interfering with legal purchases.

Seems like while Australia doesn’t export that much bad stuff, the stuff that does get exported somehow manages to be even worse than other places, for some reason. Collective Shout is a group of TERFs, and Murdoch… well we don’t need to ttalk about him.
- Comment on "We approached payment processors because Steam did not respond" - Australian pressure group Collective Shout claims responsibility for Steam and Itch.io NSFW game removal 4 weeks ago:
The biggest TERFs in the planet seem to be either Australian or British, and I don’t think that’s a coincidence. Also, Murdoch has caused untold damage to America that is gonna take decades or even a century to fix.

The EU is not swayed by this kind of thing easily.

Hope every gaming company out there is sweating buckets at this. This is a matter of customer rights.
- Comment on Tesseract is shutting down 1 month ago:
Sure, but to me it’s like someone wandering into a pride parade and getting offended at the fact there’s leather daddies there.
- Comment on Tesseract is shutting down 1 month ago:
Again, I ask: Why are you surprised that literal anti-capitalists hate billionaires?
- Comment on Tesseract is shutting down 1 month ago:
I mean, if you wanted to be in the literal anarchist social media network structure and not see people hating billionaires/politicians/nazis, why did you come here in the first place?
The entire concept of the Fediverse is anarchist. Of course anti-capitalists at large would be on it, because the capitalists are all over every other social media network. And besides, Tumblr constantly tells billionaires/politicians to die despite being corporate-run social media and literally nothing comes out of it.
- Comment on Tesseract is shutting down 1 month ago:
He’s explicitly talking about detracting people who are “violent” and call him a “bootlicker” for “deescalating”. It seems like it’s moderator speak for “people are saying politicians/billionaires should die and that personally offends me”.
- Comment on "Quell your rage" must be lesson 1 in how to internet 1 month ago:
This is one of the reasons I left Reddit (that and getting banned multiple times in a row). At some point I realized it wasn’t worth it anymore.
- Comment on Call Of Duty: WW2 pulled offline amid hacking claims after it starts messing with PCs and citing random lawyers 1 month ago:
Almost every old CoD game has this issue unfortunately. And too little people play them for Activision to bother fixing them.
- Comment on Having the ability to lie and manipulate with no remorse will get you much further in this world than having morals and being correct 1 month ago:
Being bad towards shitty people is a different beast from being bad towards everyone because you assume the worst out of everyone.
Righteous outrage is addicting, but it’s also extremely fucking draining. I left reddit because I’d constantly rage bait myself every day and it was destroying my relationships.
- Comment on Having the ability to lie and manipulate with no remorse will get you much further in this world than having morals and being correct 1 month ago:
Well, your experience isn’t universal. Most people aren’t like you described.
Maybe you need a change of environment.
- Comment on Having the ability to lie and manipulate with no remorse will get you much further in this world than having morals and being correct 1 month ago:
You’d be wrong. I’m sorry that you feel this way about humanity, but that is simply not true. And believing that won’t make you a “smart” person. It makes you’re no better than those people, and it also makes you feel worse.
It might be satisfying in the moment to hate humanity, but that satisfaction is fleeting and addicting. Being a misanthrope just brings the worst version of yourself out.
- Comment on Having the ability to lie and manipulate with no remorse will get you much further in this world than having morals and being correct 1 month ago:
Maybe, but it also means that you’ll be alone for eternity and will never have true friends or cammaradie, and that by itself will consume you.
There is only so many people you can do that to before everyone else catches on and shuns you. All the evil people in the world don’t have any friends and are subject to betrayals and threats in their lives constantly. To me, that’s not a bearable existence.
- Comment on How Nintendo locked down the Switch 2’s USB-C port and broke third-party docking 1 month ago:
Yep. And unlike most toothless consumer protection agencies in the US, Procon does not fuck around. They’ll even straight up force gaming companies to unban someone from a game if the person felt the ban was unfair, and force them to not only return their entire progress, but all of their items and pay them a sum for the damages.

I just read on the article about how all the “tesla influencers” are refusing to comment on news media and instead insisting they only talk about it on Twitter.
Couldn’t be more manufactured consent if they tried.
