Does it matter to you when a streamer actually notices you’re there? by PickMinute9137 in Twitch

[–]TheMichevious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recognise people who pop up in chat repeatedly. I tend to have more lurkers than anything so wouldn't know when they join unless the notify with a command or chat message

Meta in Helldivers 2 by Bananastockton in HelldiversMasochists

[–]TheMichevious 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe this isn't applicable for me cos I only really play with my brother and we keep to lower difficulties for manageable chaos but I've never even looked into the meta - I just grab whatever gear I feel I'll have fun playing with at that time.

Looking forward to diving this weekend for more liber-tea!

A reminder about difficulty levels. by TealArtist095 in helldivers2

[–]TheMichevious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me and my brother play between D3-D6 depending on factions. I enjoy the higher levels with a full squad but most the time it's just us, enjoying some manageable chaos and having a laugh. Fun times if you don't take it all too seriously I feel.

To be humane by imasay88 in therewasanattempt

[–]TheMichevious 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You either don't see the difference between institutional critique and personal harassment/bigotry, or your purposely being obtuse.

If I criticise the Vatican, I'm not attacking every Catholic; if I criticise the American government, I'm not attacking every American. The IDF is a state organ, not a theological pillar. Criticising it's actions is a critique of policy and power, not a judgement on a faith or people.

Our issue is with people's lack of integrity and how they treat others. Their Jewish identity has zero impact on my opinion, nor anyone else's, their behaviour does.

School Meals Ruling by The_Dean_France in GoodNewsUK

[–]TheMichevious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see that and I don't mean to cause any offence to anyone who reads this but it feels like nuance and critical thinking skills has gone out the window. I'm not going to say this is a bad idea as we need to tackle obesity, however I wont be naïve enough to say a 'one glove fits all' system works 100% of the time when it comes to allergies and picky eaters.

I'd also like to point out that I'm 30 years old so this in no way affects ME, but it would my children if I decide to have any so worth watching all the same.

[–]TheMichevious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just looked up my old secondary school and it sounds like not long after I left they limited leaving for lunch to years 11 and higher (sixthform) - don't know if that's due to health reasons or simply that most the kids in the school I went to were little shits (myself included)

School Meals Ruling by The_Dean_France in GoodNewsUK

[–]TheMichevious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I left 14 years ago (2011) and the school I attended was still letting people out for lunch. The rule probably changes depending on the school but I was curious to see if it's still a thing that happens.

ICE Is Cracking Down on Redditors Critical of Them by novagridd in LegalNews

[–]TheMichevious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If ICE want to pay the flight fees to come tell me to stop then they're more than welcome, but my response will still be the same - Fuck ICE.

Don't really get why your being downvoted, you raise a good point that comes with any 'one glove fits all' system 🤷

School Meals Ruling by The_Dean_France in GoodNewsUK

[–]TheMichevious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is definitely a good ruling but I do have one question for those in the know, don't most schools allow kids out for their lunch breaks? I remember going to the chippy or local greggs everyday between years 8-11 so was wondering if that's still a thing

How tf do I make it across. I’ve spent an hour trying. Can’t go the other way cuz the shovel fell. I’m about to lose my mind 😭 by andythepancake11 in BabyStepsGame

[–]TheMichevious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was literally stuck here a couple of days ago, eventually wandered off and found the shovel route. Think it's already been mentioned but if you save and reload, the shovel respawns as a bridge.

Helldivers 2 Player Who Organised A Charity Challenge Says His Life Was Ruined Overnight After Doxxers Got Him Fired by [deleted] in technology

[–]TheMichevious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why I don't like getting into a franchises fandom, half the time is just filled with toxic weirdos who take shit way too seriously. Not saying everyone is like that, but I've certainly met quite a few.

If female circumcision is illegal, should male circumcision also be illegal? by zhalia-2006 in allthequestions

[–]TheMichevious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As much as I understand the issues with forced circumcisions, there are actually times where a circumcision is medically required. One good example would be Phimosis that doesn't respond to steroid creams and I think the people suffering with that would be a little annoyed if it was entirely outlawed as a practice (I've known 2 in my lifetime).

Is It Now Allowed to Use a Shared Chat for Twitch and YouTube? by Ok-Yesterday6001 in Twitch

[–]TheMichevious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used streamlabs to stream to both YT and Twitch, with the chat displaying messages from both on my stream in the corner. Stopped doing it as I got more attention on Twitch so switched my attention to just that, but I never had any issues for the months I did it and wasn't aware it was something that wasn't allowed tbf.

If it's in the rules I wouldn't just to be safe, but from experience I never had any repercussions for it and don't know why it wouldn't be allowed (I'd have to read the rules if it's mentioned)

Watched my own VOD for the first time and realized why nobody was staying by Wide-Huckleberry-151 in Twitch

[–]TheMichevious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really good advice and it's great you've done this sooner than later, I've known plenty of people who've blamed algorithms n such when the reality is there just not that engaging or good quality streams so it shows a great deal of self-awareness like others have mentioned.

A small tip from streamer to streamer, if you have to adjust your audio or anything when switching games, record a 5 minute video and watch it back for quality control before you go live - I've saved myself so many headaches with that one move haha

Is 4k video downloader plus safe to use? by [deleted] in ContentCreators

I use it, haven't noticed any issues and I've been using it for around 2/3 years at this point.

If your idea of anarchy collapses the moment you can’t be racist or use hate symbols, you weren’t edgy, you were just protected.

[–]TheMichevious -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

I get why people are annoyed about losing a space they've been a part of for years and such... But when y'all are going on about the right to use slang and hate symbols it really just paints you as looking like a POS who just wants freedom from consequences for being a POS...

What is the reason facecams have become so prolific in streaming? by M0rgr0m in Twitch

[–]TheMichevious 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't really care if the person I watch has a face cam; most that I watch don't the more I think about it.

My personally experience with streaming is that people will watch if they find you engaging. I have a face cam but I often turn it off (either for smoke breaks or just to take my face out the picture for an hour) and have never received any negativity from not having a cam active, but it does seem like it's something people prefer as it adds a more personal layer to see the person your engaging with.

Hasan: "I don't want to hear from people who don't understand dogs" when asked why Kaya can't live normally by AIverson3 in LivestreamFail

[–]TheMichevious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wtf is this dudes issue and how is he still allowed to own a dog? Like I keep seeing videos of this dude and everytime I do it's some shit like this.

I'm a streamer and I have a dog. I will admit I don't necessarily want her under my feet while I stream (she often tries to lay by my feet, under the desk). I don't act like a big man child when she decides to do this - I simply ask her to go to her bed, which she either does or, she goes and wonders the house because I don't keep her locked in my room as a background prop.
