- Comment on ‘Manfluencers’ are filming themselves trying to pick up women using smart glasses 1 day ago:
If the dangerous men were as easily distinguishable from the not dangerous ones as bear species, then the answer would be different. Because that’s women’s entire point - you often can’t tell until it’s too late
- Comment on ‘Manfluencers’ are filming themselves trying to pick up women using smart glasses 1 day ago:
Most species is bear don’t hunt people. You see one, you back away slowly, and you’re good. If there’s food in your, you drop it. They’d rather eat your granola bar than you.
- Comment on ‘Manfluencers’ are filming themselves trying to pick up women using smart glasses 1 day ago:
If you actually listened to the reasoning that women gave (crazy, right?), they were very clear that with a bear, you know where you stand, but with men, you can’t tell right away whether they’re a danger or pretending to be nice only to be harmful later on.
Any men who get offended by this fact is part of the problem.
- Comment on ‘Manfluencers’ are filming themselves trying to pick up women using smart glasses 1 day ago:

It’s weird you feel the need to brag about being a piece of shit.
- Comment on How ICE is watching you: A rundown of some of the tech the government is deploying to identify and spy on us 6 days ago:
Exactly. If this was about immigration, they’d be out in force in Texas or Florida, which have immigrant populations 10-20x what a state like Minnesota has…

- Comment on Ashes Of Creation director quits over decisions he "could not ethically support" as staff report mass layoffs 1 week ago:
It certainly looks that way. He left. Then half of the rest of management left in solidarity. Then the board stepped in and fired everyone else for the hell of it.

Yes, please stop asking for remakes or reboots or rereleases. There hasn’t been a AAA game I’ve cared about in years. It’s all derivative shit.

- Comment on Apple to Soon Take Up to 30% Cut From All Patreon Creators in iOS App 1 week ago:
Why isn’t Apple trying to take 30% of all purchases through the Amazon app? Or eBay? Or your local grocery delivery? It’s the same exact thing. Such a stupid greedy fucking attempt
- Comment on US-led Gaza plan to force Palestinians into dystopian re-education camp leaked 2 weeks ago:
Do you not remember last year when Israel was bombing ALL of their immediate neighbors as part of their genocidal purging of Palestine. All while hiding behind the US’s skirts?
- Comment on Pirates director Gore Verbinski is iffy on Unreal Engine in movies: "I think it doesn’t work from a strictly photo-real standpoint" 3 weeks ago:
Davy Jones is often cited as an exemplary CGI fx, and it still holds up to this day.
The problem with most modern movies is they don’t give the artists the time to do good work. Verbinski is blaming the wrong thing here. It’s not the rendering engine that’s the issue (mandatories put it to good use with their real time stage screens), it’s directors wanting magic, but on a shoestring budget, while also wasting that cg budget on fixing stuff they did poorly during the initial shoot.
