A list no one has read vs a verified work history (of heading a recently defunded-by-elon-NGO) and these two brokering a deal regarding cutting off healthcare to illegals this week(yes, it's true, the guy senator did NOT vote for it; but he brokered the deal as part of the healthcare committee; they did not need his vote because they only needed 1 dem vote in the senate, although 3 others defected too).

The series has already had too many problems trying to navigate super-expensive HD AAA development without aiming for the lowest commercial denominator, turning their game into yet another popular neoliberal self-management simulator would just convince me to stay clear from their main games. If I wanted to play something like that there are already many other games to choose from, no need to make that mountain bigger.

The libs are not content just with genocide, now they want to dumb down my Japanese RPGs too.  Will it never end?

[Boredfrom]

I never really expected huge numbers of people to show up. The fascism in America isn't the loud mouthed, gun toting racist who waves the flag everywhere they go, it's the quiet suburban neighbor who takes their kids to baseball practice everyday and sit next to you at the games on the weekends.

 

I mean, those dudes didnt even showed up.

Laughing at this parade now but I'm beginning to dread the wrath immigrants and trans folks are about to incur after these clowns got embarrassed this weekend. They will be full force to make some bad headlines to get it out of the news cycle.

 

Nah, fuck you.

ITT Era collectively comes out in favor of corporal punishment and beating kids generally.

EDIT:

I'm ngl, I hunted down an uncensored slip to make sure the kid wasn't a POC first

Me too bro. I always thought pernicious anaemia sounded appropriately goth.

[DavidCroquet]

Like, come on.

Corporal punishment leads to more aggressive kids, so perhaps the problem is this kids getting beat too much already.

Does it though? Do you have a study or source for this?

Jesus, ResetEra members are stupid. They think Iran is winning.

Where is all the paper tiger talk I saw yesterday

seriously.. did people think iran having the biggest missile arsenal in the middle east was a joke? even if they arent as advanced as israel's

What does Iran have like 2,000? 3,000? missiles? They've already lobbed like 200 to 300 missiles. And I'm pretty sure most of those 3k are medium to short range that can't even reach Israel. They need the big ballistic ones to hit Israel to win this.  Iran's going to shoot their wad in a week or so and then what? Going to go to the ballistic missile store and buy some more? It's not like they're going to suddenly ramp up production. Or try to invade by land or sea. Meanwhile, Israel can hit them with glide bombs and a bunch of other shit. Lol netanyahu said they planned to keep it up for like 2 weeks or something right?

Once again I'm betting on Israel.

Another suicide cry for help on the very healthly ResetERA forums:

Nice, healthy place you cultivated there, B-Dubs.

I hope the dude's just bullshitting and trolling and isn't serious.

I never take any suicide thread on Era seriously. Years of reading shit from people like Melody Shreds have convinced me that it's all a grift to get people to DM you and privately send you money.

But this dude is definitely a troll. I'm not sure if I find him entertaining or not. On the one hand, he's very, very obvious. On the other, claiming he's 'suicidal' has made him unbannable and, so, he's pretty abusive to alot of people replying to him.

First of all, he's made a total of just 26 posts and has been a member for just 2 months.

why the fuck has this not been actioned on era and moved to a quarantine thread outside of public view for law enforcement only?

If your kid assaults a woman, her husband does not owe your kid the same restraint that you are supposed to have as a parent.

If you assault someone and the victim starts punching you in the face, it is your own fault and no one else's.

Parenting expert ZeoVGM weighs in. Bulletproof logic here: if the kid isn’t yours, game on, adults!

Uhm... if a kid assaults a woman you take them aside, speak to them in a stern yet respectful tone, and explain to them that what they're doing is toxic masculinity and that they need to be better. Matching assault with assault does nothing.

[DavidCroquet]

I got a laugh at some of the case study posters outing themselves without realizing it. “When I was a child, adults in my life thought it was appropriate to hit me. Now I am adult who thinks it is appropriate to hit children.”

Curious!

These dudes are all obsessed with language games to justify their behavior. If someone "assaults" me I'm free to "assault" them in any way and it's totally equal and not to be criticized! Call me the n-word, I kill you, same thing. Have something I think is mine, I slaughter a music festival, same thing. Throw food at my wife, I nuke the neighborhood, same thing. It's all just violence!

[xiceman191]

For a site that loves talking about fragile masculinity or white fragility or whatever fragility you want to mention they sure are a fragile ass bunch. 

    Are motion inputs supposed to be like free throws in Basketball? Like you don't make them 100% of the time, but like 60-70% and pros get them above 85%. If yes, I do kinda hate them. It bothers me we haven't figured out inputs, and I don't view these Modern controls as a solution if they end up ******  (gimped is the censored word) in some ways.

You might want to change that.

I was curious as to the offense "cis queer folks" had done and it's... The Village People.

Fascists never look at art to have any meaning. So the irony wouldn't occur to them. It's like his love of "YMCA" while utterly gutting LGBTQ rights

Never get tired of:
1. Everything they don't like being a core tenet of fascism especially if the original fascists believed the exact opposite.
2. People who push relentlessly to strip art from the meaning intended by the author yelling about the meaning of art and how you're mandated by "media literacy" to adhere to a party line interpretation of it.
3. Constantly lecturing people that you can't like music for anything but the lyrical meaning.
4. Saying rights are always being "utterly gutted" even though they couldn't come up with a single example because they haven't been. (And they never oppose any actual gutting of rights, see for example, Nepenthe and the prominents arguing that free speech is meaningless and should not ever be allowed. Or that AI lawsuit thread where they want storing knowledge to be illegal.)
5. Declaring irony when there's none.

My dudes in addition to getting B12 shots now I have to get iron infusions.

My body is just straight up rejecting life

Yet I keep fighting. Curious, isn't it?

fwiw I was doing some research into low ferritin levels some weeks back to calm the paranoia a friend was having over it. Most of the testimonies about iron infusion seem positive or downright life changing. There was something about B12 shots reducing ferritin levels, so it’s all sort of connected.

also I kept sending him this clip from X-men 2

[Daffy Duck]

  OP, did you seriously use ChatGPT to source this list, rather than looking them up on Google or Wikipedia and collating it yourself?

Sorry, but that's pathetic if so.

Fuck ChatGPT.

How is pasting from Google and Wikipedia instead of Chatgpt "collating it yourself".  Do these people think if you wiki something, you did a bunch of "research"?  Chatgpt is spitting out what it was trained on from Google and Wikipedia.  It's the same shit.  These people and their crusade against AI

LTTP but of course it doops the little rat cunt who posted that. What a little fucking weasel.

[benji]

"Wow, you like that song but haven't adopted the intended meaning of the lyrical content as your worldview. Don't you know you're enjoying it wrong?"

[benji]

I don't know, it just reminds me of seeing some kid playing with action figures and saying something like "don't you know Spider-Man can't fly? You're playing with him wrong. "

You're substituting your intent for theirs.

[Taco Bell Tower]

I love how ZeoVGM's bluesky is almost completely abandoned.  The little engagement he gets on that site is all non-confrontational and agreeable to him, but the only engagement he gets on Twitter is him screaming at racists and fascists.  He simply prefers the fascist Twitter site because the numbers are bigger.  He is actively choosing to be around racists and fascists and choosing to yell at them. This is his entertainment.   He actually loves racists and fascists.

 Comfy streaming for marginalized people during a time of capitalist misery where parents and forum members don't provide Mutual Aid for essential PC upgrades.

 Chatting with Nazis.

 Correcting people about the MCU.

Spoiler:  (click to show)(click to hide)

Fervently deleting tweets after they get the "wrong" attention.

It sickens me how ResetEra is fostering Nazis like Jeff Marvel.  Look how casually he's chatting with the Nazis.

User Banned (2 weeks): Console wars in a sensitive thread
I'm quite confused on why this is here but not one for Sony? Sony has a chips company in Israel, is involved in promoting Israel and thus obviously agrees with their actions. There's even evidence Sony contributed control boards and cameras for rockets used by Israel. Yet no post? No stance to boycott or reduce use of Sony?

They may not be as "offensive" as Microsoft with their actions but complicit is complicit.

I think I could understand it more if Xbox was the industry but they aren't. There's alternatives to continue enjoying your hobby like Sony, Nintendo, Valve, Google, Apple and the large and forever expanding world of emulation.

I know those companies aren't exactly squeaky clean either. But right now, they're a vastly lesser evil.

Wow this seems entirely convenient and incredibly naive. Especially with Apple. Frankly this seems like a nice case of lying to yourself so you can continue using products you like.

Because the BDS called for it, as it says in the title. Are you feeling bad for poor MS losing a small amount of sales on hardware and software that wouldn't even make a blip on their annual financial spreadsheet?

By all means, go ahead and boycott if you think its a good motion. Theres a whole list of companies that under the target of the BDS.

As to your question, there is no working relationship between Sony and the IDF. The camera thing (from 2014) doesn't merit much because its a case of the Israelis sourcing the parts without the permission of Sony.

You have 112 posts on this site. The first 110 were made in Xbox OTs.

Ha, one of the blackest kettle moments I've come upon in recent times.

it would be nice at least to have a tag that must be used for xbox related topics so people can just ignore anything MS related.

Xbox ally thread has no tag. Xbox exclusive titles from the showcase have no tag. Xbox discussion about "early announcements " thread has no tag.

Yesterday the first page was filled with xbox buzz.

If there would be a enforced tag the buzz can be voluntary ignored by everyone who wishes so.

Theres so many games you can pretty much completely block out anything from Microsoft and have an alternative from any other publisher possible.

There is 0 unique Microsoft games, or almost any corpo games including Sony, EA, Ubisoft, (except just maybe Nintendo), that you absolutely must play games from said publisher.

I have 0 problems with never touching a microsoft game again and will not miss out on anything unique that doesnt exist in another form.

I haven't posted in here cause I bought a month of GP a while back to play DOOM, which I feel fairly disgusted with myself about. I won't be doing that again. So while it's hypocritical of me to point this out, I feel a severe dissonance reading the front page and weekly xbox hype threads, just inches below this thread. Like I have to charitably assume that a lot of people haven't informed themselves of how involved MS are in this genocide as a provider of services to the IDF. I guess what I'm saying is I feel like my sense of shame should be more common, or something, but I don't really know how to describe it

It just doesn't affect them and they don't have empathy. I made a Gaming Side thread about possibly switching to Linux because Win10 support is ending and of course some people have to go in and say "I'm using Win10 and will continue to do so" or "I use Win11."

The average gamer is pretty uninformed. People here just don't care. It's easy pretending to have empathy and writing a strong reply condemning layouts or other serious issues, but as soon as it requires a minuscule sacrifice, empathy goes out of the window.

Yeah that is what really saddens me. It is not even that big a sacrifice on our part. People are going to be at different levels of what they can do depending on what systems they use and their financial situation, which is fine. But even the most basic thing which is don't play/buy their games is being overlooked.

This is a general problem with this forum, to be honest. Tags are very often skipped which makes filtering said tags almost useless at times. I have rumors filtered but I still constantly see threads about this and that "totally super mega credible leak" nonetheless.

I wouldn't say every Xbox thread. Age of Mythology DLC thread didn't get it yesterday (actually just checked and it got a couple minutes ago). Deathloop being free didn't get it. Forza being 65% off, Xbox releasing 3 games in October, 7th anniversary of Elder Scrolls 6 announcement (mod thread), Halo Data Miner, those all didn't get it. It's possible that I still don't understand what a hype thread is, so I hope I'm not being very annoying to the mods, though I probably am, sorry mods, respect.

"Game runs fine for me" mentality but applied to empathy for ethnic cleansing

Why have empathy when you can have +5 fps tho

I have to admit I'm getting a little frustrated with my reports not being acted on. I'm really trying to understand and be a constructive member of this community. Can a mod or someone explain why these don't qualify as Xbox hype threads?

I was gonna ask this in the stupid gaming questions thread but since the reason I want to ask is because of the posts I've seen here, I'll just ask here: for everyone giving up Windows for PC, if you are a PC gamer, does that mean also giving up your PC games? or can PC games run just fine on Linux?

Brother, you're in the right place. dannymate and super-famicom are about to be your best friends 😁

super-famicom saw my post and responded with some helpful info that I'm pleasantly surprised to learn about 😊

the older I get, the more & more low key mindblown I get about what is and isn't possible with software/hardware/technology

These threads should all have the notices. It's particularly galling that one of them is created by a mod! Why wouldn't they put them on from the start (or even perhaps refrain from hyping MS products idk.... though I suppose you could say it's trolling MS, it still should carry the notifications) It's not like there's a limited number of notifications so care must be taken to put them only on the hypest of hype threads or something?!

Similarly, it took a good 10 pages for the notification to make it's way to the Xbox Rog Ally X new hardware announce thread. Discussion then primarily moved on to the new "Tom Warren said a thing about the hype new Xbox Rog Ally X Hardware!" hype thread, I reported it either this morning or yesterday (surely I wasn't first!) and now that thread has run to 10 pages with no notification.

Look, I'ma just say this here and now. We're volunteers. We have day jobs. We have families. We have other commitments. We do what we can when we can.

So can we stop with the metacommentary about staff, please?

My apologies.

I've said this before in this thread, but you also have to keep in mind that you cannot force people to care. this thread has been stickied for 2 months, and staff has put the message out there in plenty of other places too. by all means, I think our community has been given the opportunity to be made aware of what Microsoft is doing. I'm not going to blame anyone for just giving up everything they have as part of the Xbox fan base. but for everyone in our community who has decided to move on from it, that goes to show that staff's efforts have meant something.

Staff don't care. Continue to ensure the forum profits from Microsoft's contribution to genocide. (Sony and Apple are fine because they don't "officially" partner with the genocide, just continue to supply it.)

Anyway, back to the jokes and posting without answering questions, please don't metacommentary about staff, they're volunteers, they have families, even though there's fifty of them they can't do anything but continue to help the forum profit off of genocide.

Hey wow the let's post ai ironically joke is so funny when the 15th person does it

The moment I see someone here doing that crap, they're just going straight to the ignore list.

it probably goes without saying but the hilarious examples in this thread should not be moderated

Is the "hilarious" in the room with us?

until an ai can shitpost consistently they will not replace us (dog)

Someone the other day literally threatened to feed your posts to AI to create a bot and boasted they could replace you

And they were proud of that claim

Oh man now that we are up to 17 or 18 ai irony posts the laugh is just around the corner I'm sure

I fucking hate it. And the fact that we've got posters- high post count, long term posters- doing it in this thread to be "funny" is extremely disheartening. I've been hovering over the ignore button for some people whose posts I generally appreciate.

Do it. People doing a bad thing as a joke doesn't negate it being a bad thing. It's worth the peace of mind.

It sucks, and I genuinely think even ironic GPT posting should be a temp-bannable offence.

…you just inspired me to see what ChatGPT would say about my posts here.

Nerokis frequently challenges oversimplified narratives—especially when it comes to the Chinese gaming market. They push back against broad-brush generalizations and highlight nuance.

???

God, this shit is weird. I would love to see some additional rules around the posting of AI slop.

please be joking

just dont use chatgpt at all, not even for a bit or to prove a point. come on, man.

I just want to say the people itt who think it's funny to generate a joke post for this thread, you are a fuckin tool

GUYS, DON'T USE AI, EVEN TO MAKE A JOKE OR PROVE A POINT ABOUT AI.

JUST DON'T USE IT FFS.

IT'S NOT COMPLICATED.

Am I the only one who finds this IRL behaviour policing absolutely absurd? Do you run the site now? Is this the new TOS? Maybe I'm out of the loop

who gives a fuck if doops runs the site or not

someone asked an AI to read my posts and generate what 'Fat4all would say' and posted it as a joke

that shits gross and it should be more heavily moderated

it's not funny or cute, it's fucking gross

Nah, you're so right. Boiling the ocean just to make a funny bit is actually very epic and super cool.

Each time even if ironically you make an AI post, you're still harming the environment 😬

In regards to the "joking" use of AI, there's a saying where I come from...

You can't call someone out for rolling around in the mud while rolling around in the mud with them. At that point, neither of you are coming in my house because you both smell like shit.

Something like that.

Am I the only one who finds this IRL behaviour policing absolutely absurd? Do you run the site now? Is this the new TOS? Maybe I'm out of the loop

Well no because people who love AI would also agree with you

Fun crowd

I'm just blocking anyone doing the 'ironic' ai post shit. it's not cute, you're part of the problem

Thread's doing wonders for my blocklist tho

I think i'll put the users and the one pretending to use it to be funny on the ignore list. At this point if your train of thought is as unfunny and worthless as an AI, you can fuck off

Also always remember that AI is the tool of fascists and thieves.

I finally switched to duckduckgo for this reason alone. didn't want to burn a tree every time I search something
There's still an option to ask ai I think, but it doesn't just generate shit automatically

I don't touch the stuff. Why talk at all? I'm embarrassed for people that do use it

None of it is funny (not even the first 2 as you mentioned later), yes they should be, and I'm thankful for this thread for being a honeypot of people to ignore basically.

"Ironic" AI posting is still AI posting, and you're still going on the ignore list.

26th time we're getting so close to laughing I'm sure

Tell me this isn't a deeply religious reactionary forum.

If people are using a calculator of some sort, or using pen and paper, then they are not inherently offloading their thinking. They're still doing the math themselves.

 

Plenty of people are going to continue just using the Internet as normal by posting their own shit, which the arbiters of these LLMs will simply steal in order to continue staving off that inevitable degradation. That's why all these fuckin' websites snuck in language in their TOS that they're collecting your data specifically to train AI by default and you've gotta put in some work to turn that shit off. Not that it matters at this point.

Theft of original thought to feed a machine meant to offload thinking. Honestly, the West can't fall soon enough.

Anti-capitalist Nepenthe thinks you have a property right to the information in your public posts.

We have a dispute between prominents:

My boss keeps suggesting this and I keep snapping at him. If our actual work is so meaningless that we can just have an AI do it for us, we're literally optimizing ourselves out of our jobs.

The same happens in a lot of companies right now - AI is used to write reports only to have someone use AI to sum them up. Pointless waste of energy

Capitalism in a nutshell.

So is the elimination of capitalism to preserve jobs for no purpose or to eliminate all inefficiencies from the system?  

We live in a society deeply addicted to convenience and trained to simply consume.

Lines up extremely nicely with how people are politically and organizationally flaccid and inept in the face of the current administration.

"Fascism is everywhere! What can I do to help?"

"You have to read books about leftist theory and go outside to help your neighbors as a starting point."

"Grok, summarize that for me."

Can't fight for a better future if you're too lazy to even think for yourself.

User banned (3 months): justifying the cheering of attacks on civilians

cheering for the deaths of civilians is wrong

Yea thats fair but Israel has constantly inflamed the situation, they are the perpetrators and they have killed a lot more people. By killing civilians in Iran they have invited the same in Israel. The bill is due at some point and its tiring to hear people whine about Israeli deaths even now. Do 1500 hundred Israeli lives mean more than 100,000 plus lives lost due to Israeli action?

After the countless atrocities they have committed do you have nothing better to do than act the morally right "enlightened centrist " shocked and dismayed by the uncouth civilians of other countries directly impacted by Israel's warmongering and crimes against humanity?

So yea sure its bad politics, bad morals or bad in general for people in yemen, palestine , iran to celebrate the hits against Israel technically since all life is sacred and violence technically shouldn't be celebrated. Though in saying that Israel as a country are monstrous with polls supporting the cruelty as well as several celebrations of massacres and Israeli violence upon innocents. So what does it all matter?

Honestly, if I were the gulf states I'd just close the taps on everything and say the spice doesn't flow until Isreal stops it's attack completely and permanently. Iran would be more than happy and whatever costs associated with temporary cessation of operations look like decimal points on paper compared to the cost of repairing bombed facilities. The gulf just loves those greenbacks so much they'd risk losing it all by keeping the pipes operational, though

They really can't help themselves from thinking Muslims should all be aligned on every topic. Yeah, the gulf states should shut down all oil trade to help people they hate.  

Gaza might as well have been nuked. And the world continues to be all 'Israel has a right to defend itself.' It's still crazy, but not as crazy as I used to think.

With how many bombs have been dropped, Gaza has been hit with nearly six nukes now, but without the radioactive fallout and in a slower more methodical manner to continue the lie of "war" when it's always been a genocide. Now the internet in Gaza is out and the conflict with Iran is taking up the media coverage while Gazans starve and get shot at for the crime of seeking food.

If you think Israel is "bad" therefore Iran is "good", you don't know what the fuck you're talking about. This is a war between two of the most blood thirsty regimes in the world, both regimes deserve to be destroyed, make no mistake about it.

And yet the most likely scenario is one where Israel dominates the region and its neighbors with its fascism. We're heading towards a scenario where Israel will become an unprecedented force in the region, able to bomb its neighbors with zero repercussions, something that even Iran was not capable of.

Iran or any nation would be able to do that if, you know, were armed, funded and supported by US. Israel cant bully, steal land, commit war crimes on neighbours without US.

No, it wouldn't because you wouldn't have the entire Western hemisphere going on about "their right to defend themselves".

This is a pointless conversation. Most people in here don't know anything about the Iranian regime, its history, what it has been doing over the last 20 years, its countless crimes in Iran, Gaza, Syria, Yemen, Iraq, Lebanon, etc, etc...

And you think Israel has clean hands? God help us all, we are paying the price for this Western hell imposed on us.

This guy is going to get banned:

Every month it seems the world turns a blind eye to Israel terrorism attacking other countries but when they face the repercussions of those actions it's all poor Israel. The news today all day has been showing videos of Israeli injured and destroyed places framing them as the victims of the war yet they did none of that literally a day before when Iran was attacked. I see condemnation of Iran attacks by leaders but none for Israel's attacks.

Like Israel, Iran's been doing terrorism attacks for decades now. Just an FYI.

I'm pretty sure the point is that they turn a blind eye on certain actors

Yeah, Iran's regime being one of them. Same as Israel's regime.

Yes, that is correct.
I just want to make sure people realize that the Iranian regime is a blood thirsty regime. They are not any less evil than Israel.

Playing both sides when everyone is focused on double standards isn't slick btw.

They are not any less evil than Israel.

I'm pretty sure the genocidal apartheid state with a decades-long history of rogue and clandestine operations far beyond its borders, including at one point assisting apartheid South Africa's own nuclear ambitions, with a network that directly undermines and meddles in western democratic systems, is a little more evil

Yes, that is correct.
I just want to make sure people realize that the Iranian regime is a blood thirsty regime. They are not any less evil than Israel.

No one is denying their evil, but genocide of an entire population puts Israel government as an imminent threat to humanity.

This guy needs help for his media consumption:

Question, is there anything ethically wrong with watching Al Jazeera? I've been watching them non stop and have been so impressed with their coverage but I want to make sure they're an ethical organization.

Dude who never voted with the ugly racist kid is apparently now a Middle East expert:

Because they're lying, like always. The want regime change and to drag the US into it. None of this would be possible without the unfettered backing of the US. Their ultimate goal is to annex all of Palestine and kick out or kill all Palestinians. Anyone who stands in the way of that is an automatic enemy.

Same excuse when they say they're just targeting Hamas and subsequentely level all of Gaza and starve the entire populace. Same as saying they're just targeting Hezbollah positions when they hit economic infrastructure, power plants, roads, schools, hospitals, emergency personnel, airports and massacre thousands of civilians. They're a bloodthirsty and racist regime that doesn't want any challenge to their power in the region and they'll target everything in their sight to try and bring any challengers to their knees and turn those people against their governments (never works) and that includes genocide.

These speeches you see from Netanyahu and whoever preaching they care about Iranians and they're our brothers and sisters is bullshit.

And also because the world lets them. It's been going on for decades and is a massive reason there's so much animosity in the Middle East towards the West.

This thread is full of too much stupidity to even read every page:

Why even start this fight? What is Israel trying to accomplish? Iran has and will continue to just fight back.

Also, guess who works FOR PROFIT:

That's right, I get to work in a for profit nursing home so Israelis can have free healthcare and Gaza can have no functioning hospitals.

Remember kids, The race of those involved is important when determining right and wrong!  Is it genetically embedded in their ivory demon souls?   Or is it a result of the slings and arrows of systemic overlords that don't allow them to work for Pixar? 




There is only one right answer!

Is she saying other Black people would have murdered a child?

I keep telling you guys she's racist against Black people.

edit: Actually, I love how racist that forum is that they think beating children in public is a Black thing.

Plus that they're bragging about it like most whites below middle class (and many in the middle class) wouldn't do the same thing. (The upper and upper middle class whites would employ passive aggression and other psychological forms of discipline.)
