  • i wonder if Kojima is also hated by his (current and) former employees like Kamiya (self admitted in interview in Unseen games YouTube channel)

  • dirt on water? mud?

  • watch out posting content from valnet sites....

    i got flamed for not criticizing valnet

  • unfortunately, Japan companies notoriously don't give a shit about earning money by making their fans (especially international fans) happy.

    generally Japan companies' main motivation for fandom is to create niche one-off experiences in inconvenient locations at inconvenient times in a way that only Japan residents with lots of free time and disposable income can participate. because that makes those participants feel special and elite in an exclusive secret "ultra rich aristocratic" feeling club.

    Japan society rarely gives residents the feeling of being special and valued in social groups or even family, so they feel strongly enough to spend and charge exorbitantly for the experience.

  • don't be like one of the now!now!now! types (i.e. OP) and treat every new discovery (personal first encounters with existing tech, situations) as the final nail in the coffin. there are other messengers available while waiting for signal to change.

    just saying, acknowledge that many others have arrived at the same problem years before you and they are not your enemy. so yelling at the choir is counter productive.

  • i fucking hate short videos. it's the most vacuous thing invented thus far.

    i literally block or dim the thumbnails with ublock origin.

    then again i also hate long videos with slow talking and tons of useless and filler segments such as:

    • intro montage
    • recap
    • sponsor product ad
    • channel subscription begging
    • alternate channel subscription begging
    • off topic rambling/ranting
    • outro montage

    (thank you ❤️Freetube & ❤️Sponsorblock)

  • thousands of threads on this topic since decades ago.

    it's an eternal debate (since signal has no plans to change)

    just read the history and join the rest of us waiting for them to change. using signal before that change is completely optional. go ahead and don't use it. no problem.

    opening the discussion again is just tiring.

  • the off-topicness/disorganization gives me anxiety 😥

  • IKR?

  • bonding with a total stranger is extrovert supremacy.

    if i can be in the room with an existing friend, I'd do it.

    but i would guess that invalidates the test.

  • kana flick was non-negotiable for me so, while im not proud of it, for now I'm using ms swiftkey in incognito, no Google play, network permission revoked (capability of Graphene OS).

    another reason i chose it is handwriting input for Chinese.

    anyway this is just until fcitx implements kana flick, per below issues.

    other kana flick options:

    • i also tried Simeji keyboard but deleted when i found out it was owned by bytedance.. or was it Alibaba
    • another is Takt (タクト) keyboard which is closed source but claims to have directly adapted Mozc code for modern android. YMMV... personally i couldn't use it cuz the flick sensitivity and other ux elements were too far out of my comfort zone.

  • I'm also really really really good at "keeping" secrets.....

  • that's not news..............

    sell valnet! every one of those! sell nyt and wapo and Google and Yahoo!

    sell everything!

  • sell the verge too! all those crappy vox family sites!

  • thanks for the eBay recommendation. unfortunately my financial anxiety is much much much more easily triggered than that. I'm working in myself for now.

    i do plan to start using docker if i ever get started on projects again.
