the best thing about breadtube is that it's allowed me to manually force the algorithm to recommend me good videos, by watching things recommended by the Breadtube "community". I still get alt- right and edgelord poo poo (mostly from watching mp4 dog meme videos! who knew???) but it's considerably better then it used to be.

LanceHunter posted:Yeah, chess is this weird thing. It gained all this huge cultural prominence because it was a complicated game where you can have really advanced tactics, and somehow this turned into an idea that chess was just a great way to demonstrate overall tactical thinking ability. So this entire infrastructure started to build around it with global ranking systems, and being a chess grandmaster was seen as shorthand for being a genius. Child chess prodigies (like Bobby Fisher) were put in the same category as Einstein. But in the end chess is just a game in the same way League of Legends is just a game, and being really good at it is cool but doesn't really carry over into any other aspect of your life. (Except potentially permanently loving you up if you start believing your own press.) with chess being a top-tier esports (can I echo that it is legitimately refreshing after years of over-the-top GAMER stuff like League and Dota?) I would really love to see an in-depth rise and fall of Bobby Fischer video.

Calico Heart posted:Hey all. A few weeks ago I finished my video on the future of Qanon in which I interviewed a cult deprogrammer about the movement. I was very proud of the finished product and was happily surprised it didn't brigaded by believers. thanks for reminding me about your video so I can save it I don't think you have any obligations to try to argue or fight to deprogram people, because well gestures broadly. I see no reason to keep those kinds of comments around, but also don't think you need to worry about deleting them out.

Grunch Worldflower posted:Higher level accounting courses, more than anything, convinced me that value is arbitrary, money is just a number on a computer and the economy is a hologram. Even in my accounting 101 course, some of the valuations my teacher is mentioning are so loving insane. Like accounting for value of "goodwill". Insane.

Archer666 posted:https://www.freshbooks.com/hub/accounting/calculate-goodwill I fully understand, it's just telling that the common example for brand goodwill is a brand like Coke. How do you measure the "goodwill" for the brand of a specialty hot air balloon manufacturer? It's mostly guesswork and opinion. Which is fine, but you can't have that and then pretend that the financial arts are mathematic and objective. Famethrowa fucked around with this message at 22:49 on Feb 6, 2021 |

muscles like this! posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFP-wGwG7MI having disturbing flashbacks to the Gamespot OffTopic forum I frequented as a kid, where amongst the daily "whats better rap or rock??" threads, there were constant Christian ministry threads created by a regular rotation of weirdos trying to convert the heathens to Christianity. the guy who created them was an older man who would recruit kids into a secret subforum to teach them bible lessons and evangelize correctly. I shudder to think what other kinds of weird poo poo was going on.

Neddy Seagoon posted:iirc, Nintendo's blind spot with online integration is because they don't hire in, they train up existing staff. So their practical knowledge is non-existent compared to other devs that have twenty-odd years of playing with such system inside and out. Which, let's be honest, works incredibly well to cultivate the nontangible feeling that you are playing a "Nintendo" game. There is a distinct culture that they've built, and it is truly unique. On the whole, I can't say I really care about online features from Nintendo, given how strong their single player experiences are consistently. Perhaps there is an argument for carefully outsourcing their online features, but I would be really sad if they lost their corporate culture. It's bad enough that microtransaction-y DLC is beginning to sneak in.

He rejected this, saying he knows the Scout leaders are still good men, and since the scouts are a private club, they should have the right to exclude people if they choose to, just as he has the right to express himself as a gay man.

Mr Phillby posted:I liked Tony in the first movie but by Civil war when he was putting his friends into ocean jail he was just the worst guy and its unfortunate Infinity War took the story in a 'paranoid reactionary tonty stark was 100% right about the threat from outer space now he gets to die a hero after saving literally half of all life in the universe' imo. It's shocking how right wing the Disney Marvel movies are. Even more shocking when they dress up that stuff with surface level woke stuff. e. maybe not right wing, and just "American"? which, well, same thing.

Archer666 posted:To be fair, those plot beats were taken bit by bit from the Civil War comic book. It was written before RDJ Tony Stark when Iron Man wasn't really popular or had much personality aside from "Rich alcoholic with a iron suit". So the right wing/Libertarian bend was already baked into the product before Disney got it. Sure, I just wish they didn't then try to paper over them with thin surface level woke-ism. that's just disney.txt though. BFC posted:As a representation of Tony's paranoia and tendency to overcorrect, the murder drones are fine storytelling. yeah, watching that one Avengers movie with Capt. Americas getting angsty about that stuff was good for a minute, but it barely paid off. Instead it was incredibly "both sides".

slowly realizing that HP a series is bad, and always was, is one of the worst parts of growing up. it was utterly captivating to me as a child. looking back, I still do appreciate the very anglo whimsy of the first few books, but it's incredibly obvious that all of those elements were directly lifted from better stories.
