2 years ago this investigation into its working was released (abusive working conditions), I think it may be relevant…

It is not the only point when it comes to adopting technologies, when it comes to maximizing privacy, yes maximizing privacy is tautologically the only point.

Because it makes the point for a more solid technology as far as privacy is concerned?

What?

They way I uderstand your comment, LTT is big enought so as to negotiate contracts with sponsor without being forced to share the metric related to the performance of the sponsored segment.

I doubt that’s true for many creators.

I’m pretty sure it does, they do see how many people play the segment.

I enjoyed Carto and Paradise Killer, as far as “different and creative” goes.

This is your brain on drugs.

America has lots of issues, no need to make things up.

So, there’s more than one answer. When it came out the idea was, and it’s debatable how much Nintendo used this concept as a marketing tool or with a design in their head, tha the controller allowed flexibility. For different games, different sections or different preferences, you could hold the two outer handles, and get a basic SNES type thing, or you could hold the mid and either one of the sides.

I feel part of it was a bit of mistrust, maybe from some early testing or internal, about the accuracy or the familiarity of users with the joystick, the design allows people to opt into it or go for the tradizional buttons.

I recall some weird stuff was supposed to be meant for the full left side combo, so directional buttons + analog stick. That was a bit of a far reach…

So beside all the intentions, 99% of the games were played with your left hand on the middle handle and the right hand on the righ handle. Consider there’s a very comfy trigger button below the middle handle that is mirrored or mirrors the left shoulder button.

I’ll look into it, thanks.

I’ve never experienced it but the somewhat obvious trick is that it turns into a race to the bottom, where if you want to outperform your peers (or even meet the expectations of the company), the number of days off you freely decided to take turns into a KPI.

So, people take even less days off when they are made free to take any amount.

It’s why in Italy, for example, you can not refuse to go to holiday.

I have two and I can’t vouch for the “built like a tank” since one of them once in a while decides to drift around.

Still 110% worth it for the price.

Holy shit I had no idea you were THE guy with hardware purchased 20+ years ago and will repair them and they move with me! Big fan of yours I even got a poster of you in my daughter’s room so that she grows with a positive rolemodel in her life!

You spend $$$$ because you can and because you never stopped to think if you should. I am “mad”, or rather, annoyed, by people burning resources because “those objects are totally necessary for a fulfilling life experience”.

And what’s funny is, you say that and then you go on detailing that you got a wheel and some pedals. Because that’s totally what a full simulation slurge rig setup is.

Your actions agree with me while you defend the principle that you don’t.

Allow me to quote myself: “No, I’m not advocating for buying the cheapest stuff.”

Very surprising to see so many peole lashing out at “gatekeeping”. Frugality is a very important thing (something something global warming?), a beginner can not get any meaning out of the very best gear, diminishing returns are a thing.

Wasting resources because you are unable to resist the temptation of marketing is dumb, selfish and harmful.

No, of course I’m not talking about safety gear. No, I’m not advocating for buying the cheapest stuff.

Consumism is a thing.

“Don’t you guys have phones?”

Also, I htought 99% of tablets connect to the mobile network using a SIMcard, but even if you rely only on wifi, see my previous quote.

My previous point is that League, DOTA 2 and Dota All-Stars (which is where Icefrog comes from, and not from DOTA 2 as the guy maybe believe) are basically the same thing and they all stem from his legacy.

So saying this game is “basically DOTA 2” is, well, a much bigger deal than he seem to realyze.

My point about baseball and polo, was about his distinguishing between the number of watchers and the number of players, which is not relevant because MOBAs are huge no matter how you look at them (like baseball in comparison to polo).
