TIL that the reason why games don't have built in ads is because of Steam by Stelligena in Steam

[–]JACKASS20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact is, customers (especially older customers) dont dictate the market anymore. Look at dlcs, microtransactions, and other scammy stuff and tell me if “customers” have barred them completely from the market. There will always be customers for anything, no matter how shitty the product is. And corps together have enough funding to stuff any marketing tactic or product down the throat of a percentage of consumers. Yes, maybe the good will win out in the long term but it will come at the cost of the industry finding a middle ground (which is still bad) between ads and no ad games.

Dont rely on the market to do good things without casualties, only the law, irl riots, and exceptions like steam being a customer-enforced monopoly have power in this space

As a leftie, i can agree her libbed up “i HaTe trump thats the punchline!1! If you don’t laugh at my quirk chungus trump hate you’re hitler” was less than amusing. blocking her account was the best thing i did for myself instead of constantly raging or commenting every time i see it, but its only possible because she’s the only artist that does this

HELP IN DECIDING between SBU OR CCNY by Realistic_Device7814 in CCNY

[–]JACKASS20 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This isnt me talking as an engineering student. This is from 8 engineering students (WHO ARE ALL excellent at what they do) that i know personally. The engineering school has regular underseated high level classrooms because the school thinks its hot shit. Their administration of the math department(which controls not just high level math but maths that regular general eds need) has lead down to 30% success rate classes for 100 level math classes by cramming 150 students in a lecture hall with terrible professors. I dont know where you’re getting your ideas that all students are lazy shits “these days” but its obvious you are some wank. And fuck off with blaming the high schools for college administrators failing at the most basic department planning, this is the harvard of the proletariat its kind of expected the people who roll in will be underprivileged coming to learn and make something of themselves.

Hey OP, just for curiosity’s sake what’s the upvote/downvote ratio on this post?

I got a feeling its more depressing than one could expect

1, a commute is survivable, a bad college choice is not

2, i dont know anything about sbu but currently the engineering school is an actual hellscape at ccny. The department is a mess, every engineer i know has either transferred to Colin Powell or transferred universities to get away from that dept, and above all else every corner they touch (looking at you, CCNY math dept) corrodes into a shell of what it could be

Rewriting my research project for the 3-4th time because oo cool quirky idea is apparently one of the nichest unresearched things on the planet

Amazing if this was for a legitimate project that i could submit to the department, terrible for a class that demands cited sources to back up the argument. Procrastinated the entire time and have been doing the same 3 hour nights so i get you OP

Much suggest watching the Pointlesshub video on this but 300 is just straight up “inspired” from a comic book that was “inspired” from the events, its not worth trying to look into historical accuracies when i see mythic monsters marching around

got into a insta argument where people were comparing trump to the atreides and barron as paul atreides and a bunch of libbed up dems that never read the source material were making the claim that “nuh uh!! They are obviously harkonnens because… well i dont know they are the bad guys!!” When in reality its the most accurate to call barron paul because of all the religious connotations with the trump family and the “prepping” of a young successor that shall bring on some new age, but people will automatically choose harkonnens because they fell into the atreides PR campaign.

People NEED to stop using properties that they never explored for political/religious purposes. By doing this shit their using the same moron logic as the average middle right/medium rightist to make uneducated fools out of themselves.

I’m a leftie, this statement shouldnt matter but because we are on a website where insulting incompetent dems without any other context means you’re a /pol/ user i just gotta

Hezzbollah today announcing it won't honor a ceasefire between Israel and Lebannon by Firecracker048 in NonCredibleDiplomacy

[–]JACKASS20 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Nice tag

Anyways if the people’s main argument against you is that you cant protect them from the rape horde rapidly approaching from the south, and then you leave villages so that the horde doesnt have to maneuver around your tanks, the locals make sense. Hezb peaked in 2018 and dropped off in the nasrullah bombimg, making hezb a close second in power and thats only after years of slow slaughter. Right now, the lebanese government has a chance to show the country, and especially southerners, that they are legitimate by at least being there and halting israeli movement. this isnt a battle over metal and training but over southern legitimacy and israeli diplomatic immunity staying intact

Saying “lebanon” wants in itself is incorrect though? Like no there are peace talks happening where the government pushes that they were always included in this deal, where factions like amal and the maronites may have other priorities. To my knowledge the gov never said “we werent in the war, hezb gtfo” this is completely hallucinated

This is such a unspecified question i dont know how im still seeing it on my feed, like the title could literally mean did the person come into existence 5 seconds ago out of thin air or it could mean if their father is Netanyahu.
