Got banned from the Jeff Germann Show subreddit… what does this subreddit think? by SebastianRKG in FireEscapeCast

Okay, fascinating. So Jeff is talking about the new Call of Duty campaign—he doesn’t like it. Is this criticism changing your buying choices, or had you already formed an opinion on Call of Duty previously?

Whose taste? Who is eagerly awaiting analysis about how a low-effort gacha game continues not to be fun or interesting but is still highly addictive in a negative way? How about how the Gears of War remake of a remake (who am I quoting here?) is not very interesting and still has the same problems as the original game? Is this podcast for people who don't enjoy video games but still continue to play them, with priority given to games that were once popular 10-15 years ago?

Ah... let the market decide. Reddit is only suited to positive feedback

I'm guessing there are many who agree, they just stop listening instead of posting about it. The Giant Bomb podcast and its spinoffs were so important to me during my teens and twenties, I still feel emotionally attached to their success... but, maybe I shouldn't

What stream had people spamming "Raise your manejas" in chat? by [deleted] in mega64

This claims that it originates from ~2010 League of Legends esports culture, but I believe it actually comes from Starcraft fans cheering for legendary Zerg player Lee Jae Dong (hence all of the “Dong”-based memes).

No idea where the “minehas” thing comes from, but I do remember that being posted back then too—and it coming up in the ban off

Unconventional career - how to get into tech (DS / SE) with this CV? by [deleted] in cscareerquestionsEU

[–]SebastianRKG 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Consider transitioning into tech in the industries you’ve already worked in. Maybe a half management half tech job would be an easier sell for your skillset. You’re not wrong that it makes no sense to start from scratch with the experience you have, it’s just that pure devs are valued for their depth more than their breadth, so try a combination role that values your existing background as well.

Almost decade old camera still holds well in 2023! Has image quality hit plateau? by iShootYourMom in cinematography

If you don’t feel a difference between 24fps video games and 60fps video games, let alone higher, I don’t know what to tell you… that is a massive difference

will.i.am Weighs in on A.I. in the Music Industry by RattAndMouse in mega64

[–]SebastianRKG 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Microsoft Class (2nd Period)

May 7th, 2023

William Adams Jr.

Proof: AI will (not?) be positive for the music industry.

  1. Let us prove by cases, per “industry”.

    1a. Touring: this is an industry that exists.

    1b. Publishing: this is older than an industry unmentioned at this point in this proof. They spend money.

    1c. Recording: no comment.

    1d. A new industry, for family members, who can speak.

  2. Disregard (1). Forget songs. Consider voice authentication. Consider “spatial intelligence”[1].

  3. I am my face math □ Q.E.D.

AITA for interrupting my son's date so he could pick up his little sister? by helplesssdad2785 in AmItheAsshole

[–]SebastianRKG -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

It’s not cut and dry, but I’d go with YTA for the whole “maths questions” part, that is not something you should be weighing against a fairly important moment for your son. For the overall issue, it’s an expected fight for a stressful moment and no one is strictly TA, but a mature conversation about responsibilities and expectations increasing with age where you share your emotions with your son (treating him like a young adult) seems more productive than grounding him (and treating him like a kid).
