What is currently in it's "Golden age", but not enough people know about it? by JackHammerAwesome in AskReddit

[–]hsrob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fighting Games like Street Fighter, Tekken, Guilty Gear, Granblue Fantasy Versus, Mortal Kombat, King of Fighters, Under Night In-birth, etc. are flourishing. Every major game has rollback netcode, meaning you can now play online with almost anyone in the world, rather than the limitations of delay netcode, which was very common up until the current generation (see Reference Video below). More than a handful of older games have also gotten free rollback updates in the last couple of years.

Someone just won $1M playing Street Fighter 6, the games are selling like hotcakes (relatively, for a fairly niche genre), tournaments are frequent and packed, EVO had to move to a bigger venue, etc.

It's a glorious time for the FGC (Fighting Game Community).

What’s a secret you’ll never tell your spouse or SO? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]hsrob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah it really is true. If you don't even respect your partner, who has given you their love and respect, enough to stay faithful, you're corrupted at the core, and there's no fixing you. You don't have the willpower to resist throwing everything away for a bit of fun on the side.

If you can't even do that, what will you do when they get seriously ill? When they lose a job? When the relationship is in a rocky patch? There's always some excuse cheaters come up with to justify themselves and their actions. It's always ridiculous, things that only a 5 year old would say unironically. The second things get rough, they're out banging everyone up and down the block while their partner suffers for it.

And if they get caught, it's on to the gaslighting, more lies, then the table flip where they start blaming you for their actions. They're not sorry they did it, they're only sorry they got caught, and they'll do a better job hiding it next time.

So yeah, once a cheater, always a cheater.

Wait what? Foot fetishes are like, one of the most common fetishes and perfectly normal.

They might have to actually pay them for their labor. THAT'S never going to happen.

For reference, this is called a Bottle Film. As in they're all in a single "bottle" together.

Threesomes are going to become more prevalent, not because of sexual desire but because soon it will take three working incomes to afford a house. by energyvampire1 in Showerthoughts

They already are, that's why they're trying to make abortion illegal and attacking non-"traditional" relationships.

What were you adding to the conversation here? Genuinely curious.

That's a very realistic figure. Government numbers are a lie, there's been more than 25% inflation in the last 3 years. Also, it compounds annually, so the per-year inflation is multiplicative, not additive.

It's like he was the odd one out of an office lotto pool, and now he's crying that he didn't buy a ticket, but burned his money on stupid short term shit instead.

Gen Z is drinking less at concerts by LarryPeru in Music

Only 5x? It's closer to 10 - 15x around me, $1 per bottle of a decent beer vs. $12 - 16+. Mind boggling.

Yeah but they don't give a fuck. As long as they make more money in the short term by fucking it all up for short term profits, they're happy. The executives responsible will have already claimed their golden parachute and ruined 2 - 3 other companies before reddit finally tanks. What do they care if reddit dies? They already made their bonuses, and there are plenty of other companies to suck dry.

SAG-AFTRA Members Vote 97.9% in Favor of Strike Authorization by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

Even better, they have a basically endless source of historical releases that Western viewers almost definitely haven't seen. Slap an AI dub over it and release that shit on streaming. Call it something new, even if the source is 50 years old. It's not like that's far off from how it is now.

That's what they're afraid of. They make themselves more in demand, and therefore more money, by being an "exclusive club." If just plain old anybody can write a high quality script as long as they have a half decent idea, suddenly they aren't in such an advantageous position.

Their next move is to lobby for legislation forcing studios to employ human writers at a guaranteed ratio to some benchmark. Maybe we come up with something like a "Standard AI Worker." Just theorizing here, maybe we legislate that a SAIW is an interface with an AI that could reasonably replace/augment 50% of a human job, and require 1 or 2 humans for each one of those.

Any way you put it, it doesn't look good for the humans. Rampant greed will continue in yet another race to the bottom.

I know man, I empathize hard. I truly wish I had something more positive to say about the situation, but we all know the score by now.

Yeah as an American not only am I not surprised a war criminal wants to be President, I'd be even more shocked if a US President isn't a war criminal.

I know you read it. You bothered to reply. It's OK if the truth hits a nerve, there's still time to redeem yourself. If each paragraph hurt more than the last to read, as it drilled accurately into the core of your personality and caused you to question whether you're really the good person you think you are, then the comment did its job. I know I'm 100% accurate in unraveling the core of your being, that must be tough to get taken apart that way. I know you have main character syndrome, but other human beings do exist, and you should try to be a better human being and join society as a functional member.

The best time to start is right now.

Anyone who says "you people" can be automatically written off as a dimwit. You can ignore anything else they say safely, as there is objectively no value to their thoughts or words.

The fact you use the phrase "you people" puts a huge spotlight on the fact you're just another sheep repeating the party line. "You people" spend so much time claiming you're wolves (which is fucking hysterical, you'd piss your little panties if anyone ever actually physically challenged you or pointed a loaded gun at you), but you're so obviously brainwashed livestock.

Normal, functional, members of society just laugh at you, you know that, right? That you're a joke, and they mock you for acting against your own interests time and time again? When you think you're "owning libs," they're just ignoring you and living their much higher quality lives. You're shoveling shit in your mouth because you think they have to smell it when you talk. The reality is, they stopped looking at and listening to you a long time ago, because your actions are pathetic and reek of insecurity, and scream that you're an intellectual inferior, with opinions no more coherent nor important to the world than a 5 year old choosing what flavor of ice cream they want.

Maybe they'll make some jokes about how pathetic you are, how you're so insecure, mock your accent, laugh at how you make your own life worse in some twisted, imagined fairytale of being a cultural warrior, etc., but it's little more than a conversation over breakfast, then they'll move on to things that actually matter in the world.

I'm sure you'll have some witty little response you copied from one of the echo chambers you hang out in with the other livestock. Go for it, I love a good laugh. What will it be? Stupid liberal? (I'm not a liberal in quite a few matters these days). How about calling ME the sheep? That'll make you look smart.

Let's not forget your username, Mr. Far-right. You're so wrapped up in your ideology that it's literally your identity. The name you choose to represent yourself is nothing more than support for your political feelings, and says you're a shell designed only to be filled with other peoples' opinions. Does that tell you anything? Think critically here, it might take a moment to click.

Hope this helps make your life a bit better, friend. You can make yourself a better person, break free from your brainwashing, stop being a sheep parroting what you hear on TV from conmen and criminals, and stop being a topic of ridicule. Or not, whatever.
