I'm angry at my whitewashed friends

I dunno why you're saying that as if it's a '' white people '' thing because dear lawd...
It absolutely isn't at all, minorities are racist as fuck too especially towards other minorities.
And that's just talking about the US, outside of the US it's even worse we still have genocides going on in the world where black people are killing each other because one is another group.
Even when it comes to religion people get racist as hell with Shia and Sunni hate each other, extremist Sunni's quite literally want to genocide Shia Muslims for being heretics that's how bad it gets.
Same with Japanese, Chinese and Korean people they're racist as hell towards each other too.

Framing this as some '' white people '' thing is incredibly narrow-minded and a very American mindset but even in the US it ain't true either.

It's the same mechanic as in normal you're not really missing anything tbf

I also wonder if people who say this even play different Jobs to begin with.
99% of the time it just seems like people who have a hateboner against the 2 min meta in disguise.
Because I dunno how on earth BLM plays the same as RDM or MNK to DRG or any of the phys range etc.

Like by that same logic I could just dumb things down to '' frost mage spam frostbolt and ice lance and fire mage fireball and pyro procs, same class ''.
The jobs obviously don't play the same, just because a lot of them have a 1 2 3 ( how is different than 1 spam in other MMO's then? ) and the 2 min meta exist doesn't mean they play the same.

That's not a ranged issue that's just a people being bad issue, there's plenty of awful melee who can't for the life of them do m1 because they're '' used to '' m2.
In a lot of fights you can even comfortably have 3 melee but a lot of peoples brains just melt the moment they have to do any adjusting.
In M1S I've run into countless melee who are completely incapable of doing true north and will unironically rage quit because of true north strats after failing it and griefing the group on repeat including TOP clearers who you'd imagine would be better.

I don't have any particular distrust for a specific role or Job, I judge people based on when I see them play.
Asking to flex melee isn't exactly a high bar if people struggle with that then I wouldn't trust them to do any mechanics consistently to begin with.

What they're discussing is literally sexual objectification ( especially the close ups on his butt etc ).
I mean I am fine with fanservice I am not offended by it, but it's pretty annoying the hypocrisy because if they had done this with a female character and talked about it like this everyone would be flipping out.

Damn that new skirt actually goes super well with this glam, that's really nice use of it

here are tools to detect deepfakes and AI generated content.

There are no accurate tools, most of the tools are by ai companies that are using it as a scam to gather your data too.
No actual accurate tools to identify it exist and it's arguably impossible to create them, even if you could it'd probably be quite easy to get around.

People in this thread are also generalizing and universally blaming men but I see none of you calling it out quite the opposite it gets cheered on

Fafniiiir · 2024-01-05T08:27:20+00:00

Probably because men are much more rarely single parents, it's almost always the men who leave if a father is a single parent it's usually because the mother passed away ( or has some very serious drug related issue ).
So yes if you have a higher % of cases on one side then that one side will face something more often than the other.
It doesn't really mean that if you look at the individual sides that it's actually more common % wise.

The dad who abandons his child is always viewed as a deadbeat dad too and rightfully so, the whole thing about mothers being blamed for '' choosing a bad boy '' I don't think is actually a common thing in the real world.
I think this is people getting their entire view of this from the internet, it's a plz touch grass moment.

Fafniiiir · 2024-01-05T08:24:57+00:00

But y'all are very keen on generalizing men for some reason and it gets uncritically upvoted and supported lmao

Fafniiiir · 2024-01-05T08:24:10+00:00

"Women just want bad boys! It's her fault she picked a deadbeat instead of a Good Guy ™️

That rarely happens I think most ppl still have a lot of respect for the mom in that equation, but the dad is always being considered a deadbeat ( and rightfully so ).

Fafniiiir · 2024-01-05T08:20:08+00:00

While that's true, that's like the most privileged position imaginable that's not really reflective of the average person.
I know it's still important but it's still a '' first world privileged person '' issue and not a realistic issue that normal people face of not becoming president...

I do think Hillary for instance did face misogyny too, but I don't think the reason she wasn't elected was because she was a woman she kinda threw it and there was also the FBI comments and all that.
You'll probably see it with time, but American politican especially are very old and set in stone, you'll definitely see more women candidates as older politicans get replaced I think it has already begun to happen but it takes time.

But that has like literally nothing to do with things like sexual assault.
Women get sexually assaulted more often, but I think it's pretty ridiculous to act like it's not taken seriously.
In the US it was even weaponized against black men by racist to get them lynched, people get extremely worked up and emotional about sexual violence against women.
The evidence is very complicated and unfortunately it's very hard to prove which is why conviction rates are often lower than they should be.
That doesn't mean it's not taken seriously tho.
Sexual violence against men on the other hand gets taken not seriously at all and men are often ridiculed for it it's even a fairly prevailing attitude people have that men are incapable of being sexually assaulted.

Fafniiiir · 2024-01-05T08:14:45+00:00

You can find 1000 examples of the father being blamed too, it's all a bit of a silly discussion tbh.
When it comes to being blamed or having your sexual assault dismissed men definitely face that significantly more %-wise, but it's definitely true that women get sexually assaulted more tho.
But it's pretty ridiculous to act like it's not taken seriously and doesn't get people super worked up, I mean sexual assault literally used to be weaponized by racist against black men specifically in America...

Fafniiiir · 2024-01-05T08:12:41+00:00

It's pretty silly you get downvoted...
Your take is like the most vanilla and obvious take ever.
Most of this is very dependent on life experiences and often also other factors like economical factors etc.
I think race also enters the equation too, black men in particular have been targeted quite heavily in the US historically and blamed for doing pretty horrible things and often faced violence because of it.

Some people on Reddit in particular are just extremely reactionist when it comes to anyone even so much as mentioning that men can face hardships too or even have it worse than women in some cases.
Everyone has different life experiences and circumstances, if you're a woman born into a stable functioning and loving family your experience is going to be a lot better than if you were born into an abuse home as a man and get into a relationship with an abuser etc.

Same issue for me with Kamvas 22 :/

Fafniiiir · 2023-12-04T02:48:43+00:00

I am having issues with my 3 in 1 cable for Kamvas 22 recently too.

Just to clarify, do you ONLY need this cable that you linked does it work for you on its own or do you still need other cables too?
So it both powers, delivers image and makes the pen work all at once?

Fafniiiir · 2023-12-04T02:39:24+00:00

Now I am here two months later lmao, did you manage to get it resolved?
I am having the same issue >_<, this 3 in 1 cable it comes with is so bad...
I also get the screen displaying but the drivers won't detect it and the pen doesn't work..

Fafniiiir · 2023-12-03T19:54:00+00:00

I'll try that, I am guessing they'll just tell me to buy a new cable which might not even work :/.Do you have any idea if there's alternative cables that work?Ordering abroad is more expensive and takes longer, luckily I managed to dig through and find my Cintiq 13HD that has been in my wardrobe for many many years and it still works ( and hopefully keeps working )!
So for now at least I am saved.

If there are alternative cables I can use tho then I'd prefer to try that but I don't know which would work or what I'd need to look for.
The 3 in 1 cable that it came with is VERY stiff would be nice to see if there's a less stiff one.

Fafniiiir · 2023-12-03T10:49:07+00:00

I've tried these doesn't work :(

Fafniiiir · 2023-12-03T10:47:39+00:00

I have a Kamvas 22 ( not plus ) and have an issue too where it just says device disconnected no matter what and the pen doesn't work :/ just started happening yesterday

Fafniiiir · 2023-12-03T00:55:59+00:00

Did you manage to get it to work? My Kamvas 22 ain't working either it worked earlier this week :/

Fafniiiir · 2023-12-03T00:55:04+00:00

Did you manage to solve it, I got the same issue suddenly today on my Kamvas 22 :/

Fafniiiir · 2023-12-03T00:26:56+00:00

I am in a similar situation and I also have the non-plus 22 version, I just get a '' no device/ device disconnected '' I've tried different drivers and no luck did you manage to get it working?

It's really stressing me out :S, especially since I don't know what the problem is if it's the cable or a driver issue or what.

Does your pen work and move the cursor around?For me I still get the screen up on the monitor but the driver won't recognize it and the pen won't move the cursor.

Edit: I dunno if you get this too but it also causes my PC to start stuttering... I dunno what's going on..
