Let’s keep the comments civil folks and remember that none of this actually matters and nobody really cares lol

then why make the video lmao

tbf mojang is a special case, where they’ll release their game on a new platform, it works fine, and as updates come in it gets worse and worse

yes but have you considered that:

nintendo bad

extrapolating from the current state of the province, a post-empire-collapse quebec will be a catho-secular french supremacist theocracy before it forms any sort of socialism…

its funny to see millennials and older gen z making fun of younger gen z and gen alpha for their brainrot

…as if the nyan cat, rage comics, and vine clips weren’t pretty much the same thing lol

i am aware of what creoles and pidgins are, yes. making fun of them is racism.

i agree, and maybe in a better world it wouldn’t be racist (it would still be glottophobic tho, but to what degree that is considered problematic depends tbf, “haha french sucks” jokes are glottophobia as well and that seems fine by most people)

but we do not live in this better world where racial & colonial power structures are irrelevant, so making fun of Jamaican creole and Pidgin (as another commenter in this thread did…) is still fucking racist

are you saying this to bait me or are you so obtuse as to think it’s the translating part i have an issue with, and not the “haha look this language is so silly! 🤣 this is better than therapy! 🤣” part

yeah that’s just racism

opinion: individualism is a plague and the generational war is a distraction

that would be impossible! Lord Emperor Gaben is the sole bringer of light to a world of darkness, he, and he himself, is single-handedly the reason why there is still good in the gaming industry! for example, he, alone, by himself, birthed Linux, so we could all enjoy a world free of the tyranny of Microsoft!!!

ok but for real. why do gamers talk about gabe newell the way tech people talked about elon musk circa 2018… im seeing a lot of uncomfortable parallels

obligatory shilling for LocalSend, it’s airdrop except open-source and completely cross-platform!

it works for you because you got accustomed to it. cool! genuinely! but not everyone is a power user, not everyone will want to sift through documentation to find out how to do the thing they want that’s easy to do with word

from the non-techy people i’ve spoken to who’ve used libreoffice, they all agree that it’s worse than ms office because it gets in the way more. it’s harder to do stuff, because it’s less intuitive to them.

people in 3d modeling use blender. people in audio production use audacity. people in office work and schools, usually, do not use libreoffice, because if you can afford ms office it’s just better for them. maybe that will change with office now being ai-infested webviews held together with gum, javascript and ever increasing subscription prices… then again, that hasn’t slowed down adobe

imo the upcoming audacity 4 is an incredible example of open-source ui redesign, and should be an inspiration to everyone. the ui is sleeker, faster, easier to use, and yet it’s still familiar to existing users! but you can do good stuff without recreating the whole ui from scratch like they did, of course

but can that content be removed without changing the game? they already changed her from a kid to a grown woman, because it fit the story and the message better, apparently. but would removing that entirely still work?

idk, i haven’t played or analysed the game. i’m guessing that it’s there for a reason. but i do know that demanding content be changed because it makes us uncomfortable is not a good thing!

it works, but it’s far from ideal. a lot of features are tucked away behind unintuitive context menus, and on some systems you need to do a bit of configuration for it to look right. for example, it uses bitmap icons by default, so if you use a hidpi screen the icons will look atrocious until you figure out how to switch them to vector icons.

and an ugly UI is a problem by itself. it’s uninviting, unwelcoming. it gives a feeling of jank, of amateurism, and not in a good way. if you open the app for the first time and immediately think “this looks like it was last updated in 2003”, it’s not a good thing.

iirc the game was refused by steam before the payment processor thing, and even then, you don’t scrap your whole project because of one moral panic. not only is it bowing down to pressure, it’s also just a terrible idea financially

“well, by saying Palestinian children deserve to live, aren’t you saying israel is killing them? and, because as we all know, Jewish people and the state of israel are the same thing, you’re saying Jewish people are child killers!”

this is the logic these people operate on. i don’t know if they truly believe that israel is representative of all Jewish people, i don’t even know if they believe pro-Palestinian people believe that, but it doesn’t matter. because pretending that any criticism of israel is antisemitic helps muddy the water, helps distracting from the genocide israel is doing, helps israel keep its support ever so slightly longer.

the only people this rhetoric helps, besides obviously israel and its supporters, are actual antisemites, who now have an easier time than ever hiding behind the pro-Palestine movement. if someone points their antisemitism, thanks to zionists crying wolf, now you won’t know if it’s for real or not!

putting Jewish people on the altar of this disgusting rhetoric, all to defend a terrorist state murdering civilians. if hell exists, i hope they and the mass murderers they support rot in it for eternity.

apple was known for making excellent UX, that’s the main reason their products are successful. It Just Works™. (well, that and status symbol)

the problems started before version 26, but i don’t think there’s been an apple software release that botched in a while

i mean, car crashes very much also often lead to death

i don’t think speed cameras are a good way to prevent car crashes, but straight up acting like car crashes aren’t a problem worth mitigating is extremely silly
