Yeah, I should note Atun-Shei didn't really do a teardown of Hancock's conclusions or anything, rather examining if it was an effective rebuttal on Flint's part and whether it could win hearts and minds and Dibble seems to have done well for himself.

I looked up what the heck a "graham hancock" is on Wikipedia, and as a German, that's the funniest poo poo I've ever read the guy is just putting poo poo into books that have been a staple of German Science Fiction for decades, I'm kind of tempted to look at one of his books to see if he slips up and gives his ancient super-cultures names from the German SF-series Perry Rhodan or anything equally blatant

It seems Germany has much to answer for in the field of archaeological pseudoscience lol

The flaw is that the design incentivises a style of play that is less fun. To get better at many card games you can count cards, track which ones have been played already, and so on. Playing better like that just isn't as fun as winging it, and that a problem inherent to the design.

IShallRiseAgain posted:Yeah, I don't think its a flaw at all to not include something that ruins the fun of a game. Its saving players from themselves. I mean sure a niche group of hardcore number crunchers would really appreciate it, but once you start catering your game's design to them, it starts to become inaccessible to everybody else. It's not saving them, they are just forced to do it in calculator or Excel instead

Robert Legato joins the Corridor Crew to look at a bunch of stuff he worked on, including Titanic, Apollo 13, and Wolf of Wall Street. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOhmMCRDdyA&hd=1 The reveal of the Apollo 13 rocket in flight just being a $25 Revell model kit across the room while Robert jiggled the poo poo out of the camera recording it is incredible. I adore cobbled together special effect solutions, especially insanely cheap ones that are part of pivotal movie moments in expensive blockbusters.

Here's a fun little video about Overwatch 2's janky spawn point placement. My favorite bit was learning the Overwatch "2" still uses six spawn points, despite being a 5v5 game.

I've been avoiding watching videos about whoever Jojo Siwa is. I figured it was the latest generation of child star asserting they're an edgy adult, but I finally decided to try gabi belle's video on it and it basically is that, but feels especially fake because she's apparently buying songs that don't even fit her vocal range well, and a pretty inauthentic assertion that she's the only one in her age range doing '"gay pop": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFP7v8zef20 The original song she bought the rights to is pretty fun though: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Dl2c6AW-J8 I've also been picking through this long video expose on the lies and abuse within The Satanic Temple, which was the satanist group who were supposed to be more progressive than the Church of Satan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lV8GLQtOTs

that book doesnt seem very good but also some of the guy's comments seem kind of off. like referring to a character saying 'im not in a relationship with a man, im in a relationship with *name of male partner*' as like, fanficcy, unrealistic trope when that's a pretty common thing ive seen people in gay relationships in east asian countries express (either as a legitimate sentiment or as a way of deflecting the taboo, or some combination of the two) in real life, and the authors of japanese/korean descent. some of his comments feel like he doesnt have much experience with gay culture, or culture around gay art, outside of either mainstream 'good representation' or western fanfic. not that a little life is a good example of gay art but still the vibes felt off

Tbf I think it was a (probably joking) comment outside of the video which is why I said "in passing". It was only really a revelation to me, personally, because of my naivete. I thought it was just like....the book equivalent of Brokeback Mountain or something and that's why people said it's so sad. mycot fucked around with this message at 05:38 on Apr 29, 2024 |

I'm curious what people think of streamers involving their kids in streaming in any way. Not putting them to work or anything, but like, with Maximilian Dood for example, his daughter, Ripley, will run into the room he streams in and hang out with him for a bit, sit in a chair to watch, or play with the various plushies he's gotten over the years, or whatever. And he'll pick her up and take a break from streaming and play with her on camera for a bit or tell a dad story while she chills in his lap. It's super adorable, but I've heard some people consider it exploitation, or that it's dangerous, or other reasons she shouldn't ever be on camera. Meanwhile, PatStaresAt, another streamer I follow, flat-out said that he will NEVER allow his child on camera under any circumstances, going so far as to build a second building outside his house specifically for streaming in to keep his home life and online life utterly separate at all times. I never really considered it a hazard for Ripley, and it was certainly cute watching her go from a baby, to tottering around as she learned to walk, and now grow to be the three-year-old she currently is. But I can see it from both of their angles, Max doesn't feel it's bad to involve his kid in his streaming(sparingly), and Pat wants to keep them entirely parallel forever. I've heard of stories of horrifically abusive parents using their children as content mills, but this isn't that, she's doing her own thing and sometimes wanders in to say hi to dad while he works. I never really put much thought into it until Pat had his kid and I heard the stories of those parents who got put away for a long time for the things they did to their kids, so I'm curious what the thought about it is on here.
