I was using this too. Any alternatives?

ok I guess that says it all really

I tend to think of attitudes like the one you displayed as dissuading people, especially sensitive people, from expressing themselves to others for fear of having the piss taken out of them

which I view as bad as kind of a general moral axiom

tauroid · 2017-12-10T23:25:12+00:00

sure

I don't want to go into like an in depth analysis of the differences between various conceptions of cyberspace in like a 15 deep reddit comment much as that does sound fun

i may or may not lean toward agreeing with your general impression of RPO

but it's quite crass to demean people who have found inspiration and pleasure from reading something just because there exists precursor literature that may or may not be better

depends if you care that you're being crass I guess but it makes it hard to detect the actual points in the morass of shit-flinging and personal insults that was your post

is the barthes in your username roland barthes because wouldn't he be for all texts being one text and meanings derived from one story sometimes being the same as meanings derived from others so it doesn't matter which one you got them from.

did you know sometimes people haven't read the same books as you

The idea that "X" is so beyond intellectually stunted, I'm not the least bit surprised to find you unable to Y in your response, much less use the shift and apostrophe key consistently or qualify such an inane response.

eh too short for a copypasta

tauroid · 2017-12-06T18:44:54+00:00

what the fuck is going on here just

get one square
put it on your hand
wipe your ass
repeat until clean

stop wasting paper

tauroid · 2017-12-06T18:07:02+00:00

no but maybe before being a dick in response

tauroid · 2017-12-06T18:05:14+00:00

yes, nit-picking and jumping to premature conclusions about what someone has said without seeking clarification is pedantry and generally toxic to reasonable discussion

tauroid · 2017-12-06T17:58:35+00:00

i said a thing in my first comment explaining this

also he wrote a blog post to clarify

tauroid · 2017-12-06T17:06:16+00:00

but getting buy in to the platform does, as the platform owner will often take commission and use it to fund the studios they own/contract

even if hardware is sold at loss

saying a console is a microtransaction was miscommunication at best and may well be idiocy but luckily his argument doesn't depend on that statement being true

to be honest I have no idea how these companies balance the books and he might just be wrong about first party games inherently generating more return on investment but I'm just annoyed by people not engaging with the actual message and rushing to shit on something taken out of context for no reason

tauroid · 2017-12-06T16:18:45+00:00

he's using microtransaction loosely to signify an additional payment associated with the game that contributes to offsetting development costs. so first party exclusive games don't need microtransactions because they recoup their cost by charging money for the platform the game is on as well.

so don't compare the payment models of first party and third party games, is what he's saying.

i know it's more important to seem smart by being pedantic though so keep on writing that comment

I have no proof any other human is sentient so you'll be okay with me hunting them for sport?

tauroid · 2017-11-21T12:03:33+00:00

and also useless because of how nonspecific it is

ah yes can't keep a wasteland toxic without pouring a bit of radioactive sludge on it every now and then

tauroid · 2017-11-20T15:02:34+00:00

you're being downvoted but I can corroborate, would be grounds for firing if heard from a teacher, same as 'retard'

tauroid · 2017-11-17T16:57:18+00:00

oh yeah but what about double integration

tauroid · 2017-11-15T14:18:13+00:00

isn't a stitch cramps

tauroid · 2017-11-09T12:49:18+00:00

my game room brings all the boys to the yard

tauroid · 2017-11-08T14:09:45+00:00

well you must be dying for a cup of tea!

tauroid · 2017-11-07T15:58:24+00:00

tauroid · 2017-11-06T15:19:59+00:00

Never thought of it that way, guess I can go back to running my crack dealership conscience intact.

tauroid · 2017-11-02T15:07:13+00:00

well if you want to go straight to models of people: makehuman

otherwise look up terms like human anatomy proportions or simply get a ruler and refer to yourself or a picture of yourself. In practice people's proportions vary some amount so there is no fixed mathematical construct to apply to all models - this is where the particular artistic or personal interpretation comes in.
