I disagree with the implication that users should “settle down” when faced with user-unfriendly experiences.

User silence is often taken as permission to continue shitty practices that build up overtime. Bloated games that are unoptimized, online subscription to play online, not even fully owning the games, not able to use your own bluetooth headset etc.

This tweet just perpetuates how consumer-hostile nature of these companies. It attempts to play down a potential revenue stream at the expense of UX, subtle gaslight users into thinking this is part of the “over-reactionary culture” when this a perfectly valid criticism, and makes no attempt to be sympathetic about these implications.

Honestly, this has made me swore off a PS5 and future sony consoles. It’s no longer affordable, convenient, or simply. I do love my DS4 controller tho.

Personally a fan of the TF2 and TF|2 distinction.

@ 5:22 Most in the community will know it refers to the title card and it’s simply breathtaking in everyone’s first playthrough

Including it would eliminate ALL doubt that this is a baitpost.

From what I’ve read, it’s those who are “#teampixel” which he doesn’t seem to be no longer part of the program.

Give his recent video a watch and decide whether he’s caved or not - i don’t think it’s as plain as mkbhf

they made two posts complaining about essentially meme quality assurance - wish I had that much time.

TIL - ty!

Cerberus is singularly the goodest boi in the world. He’s three good boys in one - you can’t beat that. Any single boi you name is logically outnumbered by the sheer concentration of good boi in one being.

honestly not trying to be a shill but there was a brief period that caught a glimpse of a post-piracy world where there were very little streaming services that had all the content you could want. It moved me away from piracy because of the convenience, library, and being able to share with friends and family.

Ideally a post-piracy world would have the options for uncensored/original versions of content, the ability to buy and store said content locally and own in perpetuity, with a price point for access to a vast library from a very small number of services. As many have said, the way to combat “piracy” is to offer a service better than piracy itself.

Formally, this is an example of positive punishment where the addition of a stimulus decreases the likelihood of the target behavior occuring again.

Negative reinforcement refers to subtracting/removing a stimulus to increase the likelihood of a target behavior (think reducing a prison sentence for good behavior).

Great Parks and Rec episode

I can relate to the “how the fuck is being a concerned human being extreme/poltical?” energy in the post hard.
