My theory is that the problem isn't even that they're woke, or even they took a side. the problem is that people don't like it when a brand or product go woke, pick a side, any side, and act flippant about it. It's the flippantness from the cm that got them heat.
Reminds me of when Stable Diffusion 3 was released and it sucked a huge cock and people were disappointed for all sorts of reasons. Over promise, under-deliver, long delay, API only release for over a month, lower weight release, and cronenbergs.
But what really fucking lit the dumpster fire that is Stable Diffusion was an employee tweeting and trolling people on twitter and telling people to prompt better. That shit went off hard, it went from funny to angry fast.
now r/stablediffusion is a Flux sub-reddit.
I invested some time learning Godot in my exodus from Unity and Gamemaker. It's a damn shame but not unexpected. I don't know how much it's the devs or community manager they hired that's spewing such retarded rhetoric but I'm done supporting them until they do some backtracking.
I have published games on android and pc before, fun commercial failures, and currently demoing some ideas using godot and I always said when and if it makes money, I will give godot foundation the same bad unity deal that made me switch in the first place. (0.20 cent per "install" in this case copy sold and 2.3% if it really went hard.)
Now I'm going to do the same but that money will go to charities of my choosing and I'll let them know it too, and I PROMISE you those charities will not be the ones "Wokot" would be happy with.
So thank Godot for lighting a fire under my ass and give me the motivation I need to get back to the hobby.
Edit: 20 minutes later... I'm going back to gamemaker, as of last year the full version is non-commercial free to try, $99 for professional commercial with android and ios port, and 80 bucks a month enterprise for console porting. Sounds like a lot less of a headache in the long run..
OP never mention the female character had to be... not a crazy violent sadomasochist pyromaniac nutcase. I didn't watch the later seasons but didn't she roll over for most people in the show? You can be a submissive, meek and also a crazy bitch.
they wouldn't hurt him physically on camera but there was active hunts for him and they did the japanese thing of going "HUH! HUH! NEEEYYYYY!" and intimidated him into a very shitty apology. Once with a group of young men who told him no more atomic bomb jokes, they're not yakuza, the second one I can't find is an older guy who made him parrot an apology in japanese and I think he was "former" yakuza or some shit.
Having said that, I have no doubt if you're a dickhead in public nothing would happen but a few threats and pressure to apologize. But if you continue to act like an idiot and not show respect to the person threatening you? I have zero doubt they'll come after you when the cameras are off. At that point it's not a national pride thing it's a personal one.
she was a little too chummy with Gosling's character when her husband Oscar Isaacs was in jail.
that movie was just being honest.
Damn, I really should watch that movie again, and Nightcrawler, feel like those two would go good back to back.
I bet I can come up with 10 post 2000s but that requires some brain juice.
Some I can think of is Cheryl from Archer, that Annie from Community, April from Parks and Rec.
I would look into female sidekicks to a stronger stronk woman character. I'd imagine She-Hulk, She-Thor, and Wonder Woman would have a few of them in the comics up until around mid 2010s.
And then there are your punching bags, the victims and single mothers in film and tv. One I can think off on top of my head is the chick from Drive, I'm sure there are dozens if I look into it.
It's there, but the whole women in refrigerator piece really made it so writers has to put some agency into female characters rather then just being acted upon lest they get viewed as an enemy of wama'am.
They also got a lot of national pride so when shit like this happens or foreigners come and "johnny somali" the locals, Yakuza and Yakuza adjacent would coerce and intimidate an apology out of the moron to garner public sentiment.
Over a video game? I doubt it, I think Ubisoft is just afraid of otakus causing a scene at their events more than the Yakuza.
I hear arguments on both sides about the photographer, without any research I'm just gonna assume once you've been vetted and have access to take photos of the President, you tend to find more work and assignments to take photos of the President.
That's like finding it strange that a wedding photographer or wildlife photographer took photos on the subject they spent the like 20-30 years taking photos on.
How many other photographers and reporters at the rally that day been around and were at other major events?
Daniel Craig's Bond is like if Marvel's Ultimate line did a series on Bond.
Casino Royale I actually liked walking out of the theater I was like huh that's a cute modern "action writing" take on Bond.
And it was downhill from there. Actually fell asleep Spectre in theater (which admittedly I love doing) and never watched No Time to Cuck.
This is some shit a disgruntled writer would've tried to get away with in the 80s and 90s as a fuck you. Now it's just your typical issue.
Honestly surprised they're still making new issues of FF. I read the hell out of those Kirby era Omnibus.
Need to have a button called Side Tweet where you can reply and comment as usual only thing is the OP can't read it, when they click it will give them a passive aggressive response that these comments are blocked to them for emotional protection purposes.
“I will decline jurisdiction in relation to these matters. My powers of sentencing [a six-month maximum sentence] are clearly and substantially exceeded. You have pleaded guilty, and you will get credit for your guilty plea in due course.”
I too will pay attention to this as there are folks over there who said things online and gotten 2-3 years. This guy didn't do just that he was inciting and duplicitous in his actions.
One thing I learned in recent months is how quickly they dole out sentencing that is multiple years, it be like Mega-City One over there. So this time next week. I'm guessing 18 months. Surprised if its over 36.
I recently spoke with a TDS type and about the Aurora thing and he thinks it has been officially debunked.
Because youtube talking heads debunked it.
I did a 5 minute search and turns out the mayor and police says the management stopped having a presence there, and that the gangs while active in the 2 building in the complex are not charging rent, therefore not a takeover and not as rampant as the public is lead to believe. (it was something like that too lazy to read up on it again)
I go back to tell the guy that's your idea of a debunk? his response: who's your source? breitbart? I tell him it's from the mayor's own statement.
That guy is lost, mind gone from TDS, but I bet a lot of normies read the "debroked" headlines and never read the article. That's what we're facing. But we at least need to have something of substance that can sway normies to reject the "deborked!" headlines they've been conditioned to believe.
Nah, what I'm saying is "if this incident is highly probable as suggested, then show me ring cams, cellphone videos, families crying over their lost pets, something more concrete than a rando twitter post." So far the left's damage control machine doesn't have to work very hard to churn out "debunked!" and "the right is lying again" headlines because of the very thing I been critical of.
Again I want to reiterate:
“Warning to all about our beloved pets & those around us!! My neighbor informed me that her daughters friend had lost her cat,” the user wrote. “One day she came home from work, as soon as she stepped out of her car, looked towards a neighbors house, where Haitians live, & saw her cat hanging from a branch, like you’d do a deer for butchering, & they were carving it up to eat. I’ve been told they are doing this to dogs, they have been doing it at snyder park with the ducks & geese, as I was told that last bit by Rangers & police. Please keep a close eye on these animals.”
If you don't question or hold that to the same level of scrutiny as a post from a liberal or some mom saying their 5 year old said something about seizing the means of production, then, well, good day. Play devils advocate to yourself and think why that post wouldn't pass muster if you're critical or doubtful of it.
Not what you need, what normies need. It's about optics, a claim that could've been strong and persuasive talking point can now be deborked by a few paid officials, now the whole thing has been weaken or worse, turned against you.
I've seen home security footage from that 2017 scandal in Bali where locals were kidnapping family dogs and selling it as satay to tourist at the beach. And videos from china people stealing dogs.
That's what is needed, something with meat on the bone, not a tweet where a little girl happens to see her cat strung up and dressed. There's a reason "I'll take shit that never happened for $1000 Alex" is a thing. Words on the internet is worthless.
saw her cat hanging from a branch, like you’d do a deer for butchering, & they were carving it up to eat.
Okay, pictures? Proof? Police report? If someone stole my pet and butchered it, the very least I'd do is put them on blast publicly. That shit reads like "as I walked more people joined, we gave each other knowing glances and we put our ballots into the mail box. Then we danced, and it started to rain and we knew everything is going to be okay."
And no, I'm not talking about grabbing goose and ducks at the park. You want this to resonate with normies you need receipts of family pets and soon.
What are they bringing to the table other than a rebranded fork?
I love to be proven wrong and I wish them the best. But the jaded doomer in me tells me this is just a reaction of some guy who got big mad and after an angry nap that github is gonna be collecting dust.
And if that's not enough to earn your downvotes: I'm going back to Gamemaker 2 wahahahaha!
