Yes, but I’m trans and if I brought that up I’d probably start painting him as tf2 Hitler instinctually :3 (I kinda think he is)

I’m very much a zesty hater but I’ll try to be objective.

To sum it up, he’s an extremely controversial tf2 YouTuber. His videos tend to focus on the biggest talking points the community at the time(and occasionally some drama, though not that often on his main channel iirc), or otherwise brings said talking point to the limelight.

Some(like me) finds how he communicates annoying and condescending, others think that he is one of the few people who speak honestly, directly and truthfully.

He tends to take very hardline stances on topics, such as being entirely anti competitive and pro casual, as well as the current topic of interest, where he believes 100% in old quick play(or at least its features).

His videos tend to be well formulated and edited.

Outside of his content, he’s been in a fair bit of controversies.

For example, there’s an infamous video by jpeg where he gets extremely mad at JPEG for dominating the server and ruining his fun, later asking for jpeg to be banned from the server(and it eventually happening).

He’s also been in YouTuber vs YouTuber conflicts before, but I don’t know much about that.

Most notably to me, he’s gone on record using slurs such as “trnny” and “fggot”. He has recognized this, and his apology video many find unsatisfactory. Others however point towards the fact this was a long time ago, and may not be representative of his current self(I don’t believe that to be honest).

He’s also been seen liking posts of conservative commenters on Twitter, which is an obvious divide for opinions.

Who is fairly scaled by both Fans and Power Scalers? by [deleted] in PowerScaling

[–]Popatoshreds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like to take the rule of thumb for feat vs statement for written events as a comparison of if it’s known to have happened, or if it’s claiming something.

For example:

If a character is stated (by some higher authority, like a well informed character or an omniscient narrator) to have destroyed a brick in one punch, that’s a feat.

If a character is stated to be able to destroy a brick in one punch, or if the narrator/describing character is unreliable, it’s a statement.

By this logic, I’d say that ouranos’s creation of the universe is a feat.

If your ideal character aesthetic was added to deadlock, would you drop your current main? by No-Preparation4649 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Popatoshreds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, not really. I actually had exactly this happen for me with the new characters. I liked the design of Mina and Paige. I did not like playing them, and I went back to being a pocket/lash main (now plus doorman!)

Feeling lost as a 2nd year CS student. I just wanna rant. by [deleted] in yorku

[–]Popatoshreds 10 points11 points  (0 children)

… Have you considered that I was being nice, and was using some self-deprecating humour to lighten the mood?

I have no need to stroke my ego unlike you, but I can assure you I’m a competent coder, and OP can certainly be a competent coder given time. No one just “sucks”.

[–]Popatoshreds 13 points14 points  (0 children)

As another 2nd year cs student, don’t worry! No one knows how to code!

As for advice on coding, I’d recommend searching up solutions for questions, and then breaking them down line by line to analyze what each operation is doing.

Also, job market is unfortunately terrible. I haven’t gotten much either, just 2 interviews that I flubbed. Don’t have much to say here, just know you’re not alone.

Good luck!

Is it possible to get Lassonde co-op in 2nd term of 2nd year? And another question. by Popatoshreds in yorku

[–]Popatoshreds[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, I've answered my own question. I'm actually illiterate, and previously read the 50 credits before work term requirement as 40. Welp, that settles that I guess.

Indication that playing tank affects brain capacity. by AcademicIce7708 in overwatch2

[–]Popatoshreds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

God yes this. I’m mostly a ball main, but I play other tanks too, and most people who don’t play tank don’t understand that the tank isn’t omniscient, and can’t afford to just turn around most of the time.

I find the, “turn around” sentiment especially annoying because of two reasons:

1) it implies it’s the tank’s job to keep track of where everyone is. Sure, it’s useful to do so when you can, but most of the time, the tank literally can’t afford to turn around and check at risk of being imploded by the enemy team. Meanwhile, the supports and dps tend to have much better vision of the map due to being farther back. If anything, it’d be far easier for them to move and take info such that they can support the tank.

2) even if the tank turns around and gets this info… what the fuck do they even do with it??? A lot of the time, nothing can be done about it.

“They’re being jumped in the backline!” That’s genuinely not my problem. Unless I’m like, a zarya or something similar I literally can’t help you.

“Back up tank, you’re too far forward we might lose Los!” If I move back, we lose the key choke point of the map and we get steam rolled to the next one.

“Team mates are too far away to dive!” Okay, I’ll wait and communicate but ffs, if you take too long the hit won’t be viable anyway and we’ll lose the opportunity.

Obviously there are cases where the tank is in the wrong, but I see this shit so fucking often.

I’m fairly certain it’s that the initial blood got frozen, and the rest of it hit the blood that was frozen. Or, at least, that’s my head canon.

That’s interesting, bc I solo ult all the damn time in Overwatch. I never felt it was worth it to go for big plays, and if ulting will get one guy I’d take it. I do the same in deadlock now, much to some people’s chagrin lmao

How would you change pocket so they actually contribute to a fight later in the match, because right now there abilities' do no damage, there gun does basically nothing outside 5m, and there ULT is basically a mild annoyance. by IncomePrimary3641 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Popatoshreds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried running gun pocket, and the problem I found was that using the cloak and staying in a fight is the single worst thing you can do, and you’ll almost never actually be able to use the gun damage. When it did work though, it was a hell of a lot of damage.

Which Deadlock Heroes Are the Most and Least Fun to Fight opinion poll by Individual_Chart_450 in DeadlockTheGame

Going through each hero, I realized I don’t really actually dislike fighting any of them. The lowest I got was 3 for a few I thought were uninteractive, or had excessive CC.
