the original reddit post from r/thomastheplankengine from user 0tt0_0fficial, with the title "dreamt last night that twitter added a new feature where the percentages of users' milk was always displayed."

an image below is an example of said dream: matpat (with the skim milk label) tweets "i don't get it? what's the point of this new update?" 

the tweet is followed a reply chain of people reposting a meme of lord farquaad pointing and saying "skim" until it scrolls off the image.

Almost 11 years have passed since this interview, but of course it all sticks out in my mind.

Yoko's description during our interview of other games being a "steak" but Nier being a "teishoku" will never leave my brain. I thought about this all through my playthrough.

Kinda weird that the US elite is full of child molesters flying to pedophile island but if a poor artist ages Sailor Moon up to 18 to sell porn to anime fans she gets obliterated from the internet

I’m not gonna hold this against Horii, but I will say I’m a writer because of Dragon Quest’s brilliant attention to its translations and localizations. They were primo as far back as the first game and they inspired me. Absolutely love how the modern translations weave in old NES β€œAlefgard” dialect.

but also like, how can you be involved with dragon quest and also be completely ignorant of the fact that the english localization of dragon quest games already go above and beyond in this regard

it's "funny" that this article is going to be used by the most annoying people in the world as proof that human translators go too far and should all be replaced by AI when the complaint is specifically about word-for-word translations that don't go far enough

i had that turned off already and it still happened lol

if there is any way to turn this off completely (not just hide it from being shown to other people, but have discord stop tracking it entirely) then let me know because i don't see it

i don't really appreciate discord scanning my processes so it can track what game i'm playing (seemingly with no way to turn it off??) but i especially don't appreciate it using that information to show me a pop-up message recommending i join the game's server

Really annoying and consistent slippage between "it's bad that this technology is owned by powerful and exploitative corporations" and just general opposition to labor saving technology which is both good and the story of the last three centuries of agriculture

There is no reason NOT to go union for your multi-million dollar budget game unless you’re being greedy and want to pay actors less.

Huge kudos to Ben for standing up for what’s right, and shame on CAPCOM for devaluing the art and skill of voice acting for the sake of saving dollars.
