  • A new pokemon game for switch/switch2 came out (Pokemon Legends Z-A)

    Lots of gamergate smell wafting around gamer reddit, particularly around conspiracy theories regarding reviews. Dudes being compleyely unhinged that it isn't whatever version they played when they were 10 years old but with AAA graphics. Real normal stuff to reply about 100x in a day.

    It could just be me being defensive about a thing my kids like lol.

    It's just that my intuition nudges me when I come across that variety of authoritarian confidently incorrect guy who can't imagine people liking things that they dont like (or vice versa), and who will move worlds to enforce their one true take. It feels like they're everywhere, fueling most dumb internet social movements. It's like it could be a small piece of a General Theory of Weird Online Assholes.

    The phenomenon rhymes with Musk Reply Guys, Music Experts Who Hate Taylor Swift Professionally, Claude Code Evangelists, and Star Wars Fandom.

  • Usually you get tech creeps insisting that they could've done physics. Isn't it kind of uncanny when a physicist insists on their capacity for tech creeping? Edit: also thanks for the explainer!

  • What do you reckon the overlap is between the grown men who are mad about the new pokemon game and our regular subjects?

  • Got a couple of these sandisk players for my boys. Theyre solid!

  • That makes ol pete sound crazier than anyone he referenced

  • I could never live in a dyson sphere. I cant stand how they stop charging after six months.

  • straight up nazi

    The "master race" is a construct that exists in the the future within esoteric nazi lore

  • Everything is touched by "It can't be that stupid" syndrome these days, isn't it?

  • It will always be the ice cream of the future, never the ice cream of today

  • God, the faces. Why don't the boosters see how wrong the expressions are? Especially the videos, half the time they look like serial killers who are about to sneeze.
