metroid/nintendo discourse bla bla bla, the only thing in prime 4 that’s actually egregious is the transition if you hit the + button while looking at the world map. it switches to your local zone but looks like it’s magnifying on wherever the cursor is. so frustrating and confusing

I learned today that the term “fullproof” is incorrect and it’s supposed to be “foolproof”, and I feel like the entire fabric of reality is unraveling

I hate the term “enshittification” because the term perpetuates a myth that tech platforms get worse just because they lose sight of users, that it’s an entirely avoidable problem if tech platforms just put users first. I think this is unequivocally false, and an extremely childish idea.

A confirmation dialog is a tool to ensure users are aware of an action’s destructive consequences. When an action has none—or is easily reversed—a confirmation dialog is pointless.
This seems obvious, and yet there are so many “Are you sure? There will be no consequences” dialogs in games.

been trying out chaos zero nightmare after the pitch of “slay the spire + gacha” cut through the endless noise of extremely polished high-budget new gacha games, but this game’s character gender ratio is absurd
there’s only like 3 male characters, and 2 of them are named Luke & Lucas???

so you’re telling me that when I stay inside all day and only get indirect sunlight I develop a vitamin D deficiency, but when my books stay inside all day and only get indirect sunlight they yellow significantly. make it make sense

was pretty disappointed when I realized a book I’d seen widely described as incredibly dense and academic was just a novel (with a very casual YA tone) that happened to be set in college. only a tiny bit horrified by what this means for how we as a whole discuss “difficult” media.

recently watched a video from a creator I used to follow which, among other things, talked about how difficult it was going from being a gacha-game-specific creator to a general variety streamer
thinking about that made me realize why I just can’t get myself to care about streaming as a whole

I think one big thing that this misses is that there IS actually one big pro-consumer argument for standardizing subtitles over bespoke text hard-encoded into video files: allowing the user to customize size & style to their liking

the irony of spreading early leaks for series that have extremely affordable(/free) and accessible simulpubs being the one form of manga piracy I find absolutely morally despicable and that being the only form of manga piracy I actually see on an extremely regular basis
