'why are you booing me i'm right' is a forum of journalism nobody wants to listen to. saying people arguing in protonmail's defense posted things 'which benefit the FBI' is petty and helps no one.

it just sounds like you're trying to win an argument on the internet, but you're a journalist!! (2/2)

mate you do a lot of incredible work, and i don't use and frankly don't care about protonmail. i also vehemently understanding wanting to defend the nature of the interpretation of your work

but you are coming off very badly in this video. you're making it about you instead of about your work (1/2)

because its a short i think the answer is ragebait. in the same vein of marketing as cutting off a vid right before you finish a sentence to make people need to rehar it, or mispronouncing a common word or name so that people comment on it

trying to get people to go COME ON I COULD'VE SURVIVED THAT

a compilation of my photos of maine, "A Place Without Bodies" volumes 1 and 2, to advertise it for my early spring sale. in the top left it says "Early spring/"FUCK! I got bills" sale!". in the middle, over a moody photo of a gas station, it says "Over 600 atmospheric photos of Maine in 2 volumes for $20! (That's 2/3rds off its normal price!)". and on the right, over a foggy photo of a bridge, it says "Licensed for commercial use! Use 'em in games, art, albums, more!"

worth remembering about polls asking for narrow worldviews like this:

who is more likely to respond to a phone call or advertised survey? the person who's just normal about women and doesn't want to be bothered, or the person with very strong opinions who is looking for a platform to legitimize?

fair! they are correct on it being identifying though, i hear that style of reloading referred to as "gears reloads" since "tactical reload" is comfortably another thing at this point

it also allows for unique dialogue for characters for doing successful/unsuccessful reloads that no other game has

i feel like gears reload as it evolved in the later entries does a pretty decent job striking a balance. the more commonly available weapons have a wider area to get a 'good' reload (as opposed to a perfect) and the overall reload times for not using the QTE are shorter iirc

not perfect, but better

A drawing of Animal Crossing: New Horizons with Rem from Deadlock in place of the animal friend the player is talking to. He says β€œHey, I gotta summon The Patron… Could you help me farm Troopers?”. β€œThe Patron” and β€œTroopers” are blue highlighted text. Two of his little helpers are strolling around the scene carelessly.

thinking a lot about starbreeze listing player numbers from as far back as 2013 in their investor reports the last couple of years, despite it only showing a massive dropoff in retention. but they are genuinely under the impression they can get back to millions of active users for a niche FPS lmao
