Apparently @Toxtricity had something to do with the music in this game? That's extremely awesome if so! I trust their music tastes a lot.

whoa, really? i should watch this.

i should also listen to the soundtrack of this game because tox is legitimately one of my favorite VGM composers.

holy shit I think Jordan Peterson manually removed my comment on his video. wild

basically said something similar to this

this reminds me of when i left a disparaging comment on a stefan molyneux video and he actually responded to me. i was surprised he didn't just delete the comment.

peterson totally seems like the kind of guy who would go through tens of thousands of comments and manually delete every single one that disagrees with him lol

Also, I can imagine historians in some future civilization relitigating the 2016 election. Would we have gone down a completely different path if Bernie had won the nomination? What would have happened if Hillary hadn't called a quarter of the country deplorable?

if a historian in a future civilization is asking that question, it must be a really poor one who takes quotes completely out of context

i know it's user ratings but it's not entirely clear how those ratings are converted into scores, according to wikipedia:

IMDb indicates that submitted ratings are filtered and weighted in various ways to produce a weighted mean that is displayed for each film, series, and so on. It states that filters are used to avoid ballot stuffing; the method is not described in detail to avoid attempts to circumvent it.

...anyway, yeah, wikipedia also states ms. marvel was indeed review bombed, so disregard my comments on that. you'd think a site as huge as IMDb would have more trustworthy scores!

Caveats: Between the Delta and Omicron (and whatever we're on now) waves of Covid, and overall dissatisfaction with my job, my opinions might be biased by being on edge and just not in a great mood, both being in a public theater, and in general. That's kind of why I want to post this just as a (partly literal) sanity check - if other people have similar opinions, or if I just need to take a break from watching Marvel shows/movies if they just aren't going to land for me any more.

in response to your comments on the TV shows (haven't seen MoM yet and i'm avoiding spoilers for it): aside from your view on wandavision (which i really liked), i pretty much agree with your non-positive opinions. falcon & winter soldier was meh and what if was so uneven that i'm still not sure if it was a good show overall (it probably wasn't, really).

haven't seen ms. marvel yet but the positive reception seems to just be a board 8 thing; it has a 6.2 on IMDb right now. that's... actually pretty terrible, considering how generous IMDb scores are. for comparison's sake, the phantom menace has a 6.5.

Yeah, I'm not sure I get the hate against Legal Eagle. He's "biased," but only in the way any commentator is when they're doing it for entertainment value moreso than legal critique. This is an area I've gotta agree with Tony on.

yeah, i'm no lawtuber connoisseur but the few i've watched from time to time seemed to be very biased, so this isn't something that's unique to legal eagle. and biscuit himself is obviously extremely biased as well, both in this case and the rittenhouse case.

if legal eagle gets his facts wrong, he sucks, sure. but bias isn't necessarily a bad thing.

No. But the difference is I'm a specific person and not a group.

However if you said "Board 8 posters like ___" (let's say I don't know, Phoenix Wright) I wouldn't automatically assume you were saying with 100% certainty that I like Phoenix Wright despite being a Board 8 poster. I would assume you were saying it was more likely than not I like Phoenix Wright however.

...but biscuit WAS talking about a specific person? he was talking about the cop in the heard incident. he wasn't commenting on cops or gay people in general.

a better analogy (in that it's much closer to what biscuit was actually sainyg) would be if i said "remember when john said lopen hates phoenix wright? well, turns out lopen is... a board 8 poster. so, turns out john was lying. lopen likes phoenix wright." sure, it's likely that i'm right and that john is lying, but i was still using faulty logic to come to this conclusion.

Biscuit was clearly saying the former and Kenri was clearly saying the latter. That's all that was clear. Biscuit literally said he wasn't saying anything with 100% certainty multiple times in this topic but your Vulcan brain can't process that someone doesn't necessarily not mean probably if they don't explicitly say it and would rather make cheese analogies.

so if i said "lopen likes ___", you would interpret that as "lopen probably likes ___"? seriously?

You can agree that "the cop is a lesbian so probably isn't a bigot" is a more reasonable assumption to make than "the lesbian is a cop so probably is a bigot" is it not?

Like, if he argued that you are Dutch and therefore you aren't bigoted against Dutch people.... is that a problem?

it kinda is if he confidently states that i'm not bigoted against dutch people because i'm dutch. again, i have no problem with the statement that i'm probably not bigoted against dutch people.

admittedly, this analogy doesn't entirely work; i've posted on this board for a long time so biscuit probably knows that i'm not a bigot, against dutch people or otherwise. on the other hand, he knows next to nothing about the officer in the heard incident, other than that she's a cop and she's gay. so the assumptions he makes about her are a lot more unfounded. a better analogy would be "if biscuit argued that a random dutch guy is not bigoted against dutch people, is that a problem?" my answer to that would be "yes, that is a problem."

Lasa you don't need to take things so literally/maximally. Biscuit isn't claiming absolute knowledge of the situation because he wasn't there. It's like how if I say "American voters are going to reject the Democrats at the polls because the Dems are too socialist" I don't mean literally all Americans are going to vote against them. Nor do I mean that all Democrats are socialists.

this seems like a false equivalency to me because there's a difference between making a generalization about a group and making a specific claim about a specific person.

like, imagine if a conversation would go like this:

biscuit: "remember lasa, the guy who hates cheese, according to john? well, it turns out he's dutch. so, john was lying. lasa likes cheese."
me: "what? just because i'm dutch doesn't mean i necessarily like cheese. that's kind of stereotypical and dumb."
you: "stop taking things so literally! biscuit was just saying there's a HIGH CHANCE you like cheese!"

i think it would be pretty absurd to say i'm in the wrong in this scenario.

i really don't think this is a case of me "having bad reading comprehension" or "taking things too literally," i think biscuit just worded his point poorly. when you're discussing a trial, it's especially important to word things precisely and carefully. you, as a lawyer, should know this.
