There was a really cool math youtuber, he posted a video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1DUUnhk3uE

I emailed him and said
Subject: If I can prove a better solution to The "10" Prisoner puzzle...
"Will you give me a shout out?

I really think I can do it but I'm pretty sure it will take quite a bit of time, but just a simple shout out would make it worth it.

Your channel is awesome, btw"

He said:
If you can find a solution with a better chance of success: youll get the biggest shout ever.

So I sent him this a few weeks later:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/f3a2kgrlvznmjjv/BetterSolutionTo10PrisonerPuzzle.pdf

And that was Dec 9 and he hasn't responded since.

It would mean the world to me if he just gave me a shoutout/acknowledgement of some small kind. But I don't want to harass the guy, should I email him again? Should I accept that he forgot or doesn't care? What's the best thing for me to do in this scenario if I'd really value the acknowledgement but don't want to be rude?

I noticed a lot of those "Christmas fireplace" videos doing amazing on youtube a couple years back and I thought I should make a parody. So we recreated the yuletide warmth of a flaming barrel. Get in the Christmas spirit by feeling what it would be like to be a hobo by playing the Christmas Hobo Fireplace on your computer or tv:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fq7qHzgqyNY

I'm a big fan of the movie home alone, but there was always one line that stood out to me as surprisingly harsh. A hypothetical suggestion Marv puts out when they cannot find Kevin. I decided to take Marv's hypothetical literally, recut that scene, and make an "Alternate Ending" to home alone:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6V0vvhSkg0s

Of course during christmas time we all hear the song "All I Want For Christmas Is You" a lot. I was surprised to find out Mariah Carey did a remix of the song 16 years later and called it "All I Want for Christmas Is You (Extra Festive)". I found the idea that you could just take a song and "turn up the festive knob" to be silly and funny. So I set out to make a video satirizing that idea about what would happen if she tried to take the festive levels to 11:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDh12ecEI0k

It's become a bit of a holiday tradition for me each year to post the same joke on imgur, the past years it's never gotten much attention but for some reason this year got much more attention and ended up on most viral. It's a joke about the Misfit toys from Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer:
https://imgur.com/gallery/Gm8fuEa

Finally me and my brother have an interest in the game "Death Stranding" but no pretty much nothing about it aside from that you play as Norman Reedus and you walk around a lot. We've been calling it "Norman Reedus Walking Simulator" and I thought for my christmas gift to him I would use my photoshop skills to create a "special edition" of the game:

Thanks man

Sure, but theyre often the ones bringing it up in the first place. I wont try to force you to believe me, hopefully other users can either confirm or deny my claim.

Fair enough.

Its hard to really compare the situation to anything. Let me think a bit on this.

I do like to think I can have empathy for them while also thinking their deal breaker may come from a place of ignorance or fear stemming from mass cultural stigma, though.

And you might be right about that. Whether there are good reasons or just bad reasons to have that preference could be interesting to think about. One could almost make the same question about anybody who is 0% bicurious.

I'm happy with this discussion though. I think we came to a pretty good common ground.

Im not saying theyre the same, Im saying its a frightening attitude that is what causes actual real-world anti-trans violence to occur.

Im not trying to be hyperbolic, Im just saying hate crimes against trans folk happen (as in the recent murder I linked) and they come from that mindset. Thus I think the mindset in itself is worth criticizing.

I dont think youre transphobic if you arent attracted to trans people. On the other hand it seems...weird...to claim to be attracted to a post-op trans woman and then all of a sudden claim not to be when you find out she transitioned. But, its not a crime or wrong to no longer be interested in her.

Not you, if thats how it sounded. I havent collected extensive data but there definitely seems to be a cadre of users here that pops up whenever a topic about transgender people pops up. I think others could vouch for me on that claim.

True, I think I pretty much addressed this above.

To be fair you have accused me of acting in bad faith, and given that I specified machismo rather than generic masculinity I took it as you trying to twist my words, and then ask a leading question suggesting I am against men or something.

But youre right, and I apologize.

Thank you, I'm sorry if I ever twisted your words. That was not my intent. I've had concerns that you weren't arguing in good faith, perhaps they were overstated, I apologize for that too.

I don't know about the cadre of users, but "knowing some hyperbole was used" aside, I would speculate that they only respond when the topic is brought up.

I think your connection between hate crimes and "the mindset" is far too tenuous. Being a person who acts violently, not a sexual preference against trans people, is the common thread when considering scenarios of violence against trans people. What you are suggesting isn't that far from saying being heterosexual is the same mindset as those who commit violence against gay people. I don't think the connection is there.

Finally, I will skip giving an example scenario because I have some concern it will be concerned to be an argument of equivalence between groups. But I would imagine you could think of a scenario where you were attracted to a person but then upon learning something about their history or character you were no longer attracted to them. It isn't that you claimed you were attracted to them and then claimed you weren't. It was that the person you were attracted to, the person you thought they were, ended up being not who they really were. I would think that such a thing is a thing you could find to be empathetic even if you can't empathize explicitly with people for whom "being born biologically" male is a deal breaker.

a lot of people convince themselves of wanting genuine conversation about "real life," but you see the energy shift when somebody who doesn't share their ideology joins the conversation.

when somebody doesn't want to have a real conversation with you, they start using labels, ad hominem and other things to paint you as a villain so they can feel justified in attacking you with a heart full of righteous indignation.

when one prides themselves as being "smart and sensible," it's more difficult for them to be dismissive of a well thought out argument from opponents without that "smart and sensible" image looking like yet another farce. but the internet is full of people who are full of shit, lol. get them in their feelings and the real them comes out.

no sense in expecting a real conversation on GameFAQs though. unless it's a one on one via PM.
I've had conversations that have started dicey end in a productive amicable place, it's not super common, but I think so long as somebody tries to talk in good faith it's worth it to try.

But I do hear what you are saying and acknowledge sometimes some people just won't talk in good faith.

Lol, posting every day on GFAQs about how youd never ever ever ever have sex with a trans woman is the sort of masculinity that Im meant to respect? Sorry, just doesnt seem like the ideal male role model.

Learn a new word today, joe, machismo is associated with negative characteristics, such as sexism, misogyny, chauvinism, hypermasculinity, and hegemonic masculinity. Scholars characterize macho men as violent, rude, womanizing, and prone to alcoholism. Authors from a various disciplines typify macho men as domineering through intimidation, seducing and controlling women and children through violence and intimidation.

I didnt say masculinity was bad, I said the aggressive, overcompensating-for-something kind that leads one to murder women is bad.
Few things, firstly you completely ignored the question I asked before:

joe40001 posted...
"it just seems in pretty poor taste to argue that theres nothing wrong with these dudes who are this fucking caught up in their bullshit machismo that they spend all day every day on a video game forum expressing how mortified theyd be to find out their date was trans."

Let's unpack this premise you are suggesting:
Guy who strangles trans person = these dudes who are this fucking caught up in their bullshit machismo that they spend all day every day on a video game forum expressing how mortified theyd be to find out their date was trans = anybody who would not want to date a trans person

You never explicitly made that suggestion, but your language completely made that suggestion. So please clarify if you are indeed making that suggestion that the 3 groups of people are largely equivalent or not. Because I certainly don't believe they are. Please answer this question first.

Secondly who is "posting every day on GFAQs about how youd never ever ever ever have sex with a trans woman"?

Thirdly, "machismo: a strong sense of masculine pride : an exaggerated masculinity" This is not the same thing as "sexism, misogyny, chauvinism, and hegemonic masculinity" You could make an argument that machismo is the same thing as hypermasculinity but you would then have to demonstrate that is a bad thing.

I'm not saying "being macho" is good, but I don't think it warrants you constant overt conflation with violent criminals.

Fourth and finally, while i do not think very well of your opinion at all, I have shown you the respect to not talk down to you, phrases like "learn a new word today" are needlessly condescending, please refrain from them if you want to have good faith discussions.

This is bullshit on the basis of those same people not caring about any other exploitation of a similar vein. Were you complaining about the overrepresentation of upper class white families of commercials in the prior decades?
You make a decent point, but I don't think those things were ever as calculated to exploit people's positive ideals the way these modern things are.

Diversity and inclusion is a positive sentiment, and companies signal towards that for money, and others fall for it.

Let me put it this way, I'd feel weird if they made an MLK fast food place if they thought they could make money with it, I'd be like "this is cheap and exploitative and forced". And you could lob the same argument of "You never complained when they made BK, Wendy's, or KFC with white people as their mascot"

It's the cynical manipulation behind forced diversity that bothers me about it. People pay others money because they think a person cares about being woke when really they just care about woke people's money.

I feel like if you wanted to make more real change, we as a culture should make casting directors give auditions in a racially blind manner (for characters where the race doesn't matter).

We got one of the most important female heros in alen just because Ripley was never written to be a man or woman and the casting department considered both. That's the kind of stuff that would actually make a difference.

Female Ghostbusters where people who hate it are called bigots just sends us backwards, it doesn't actually help make the world better.

I think you miss the idea, TC, nobody complains about "foced diversity" in scenarios where it's organic like the birth of a baby is dramatizing.

Maybe if you had a kid named Bob, he was popular, so 20 years later you cloned him and said "since bob was popular we are doing bob again but this time bob 2 is a girl and a little bit different and we let bob 2 improvise a lot"

And then people would say "why redo bob as a girl and not just make a new person boy or girl?"

Maybe then the joke would work.

I think the thing you don't get about people who are annoyed by forced diversity is that they aren't annoyed by diversity, they are annoyed by things being forced. By businesses exploiting people's noble goals for inclusion for cynical financial gain while not actually caring about the underlying principles.

I didnt invent any term, I told you I learned it. It also has an entry on dictionary.com.

Look, on a day when a trans woman was strangled to death after her date found out she was trans

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/400-current-events/78266182

it just seems in pretty poor taste to argue that theres nothing wrong with these dudes who are this fucking caught up in their bullshit machismo that they spend all day every day on a video game forum expressing how mortified theyd be to find out their date was trans.

Concern trolling is all Ive seen from you. The article I linked doesnt even suggest you are necessarily communicating in bad faith:

Interestingly, the Geek Feminism Wikia notes that "concern trolls are not always self-aware; they may also view themselves as potential allies who have just, oddly, never met a feminist opinion they liked."

You invented it as a label for me. I've never said "hey I'm not honestly saying these things, I'm 'concern trolling'"

I question the need to label me and interact with me as a label and not as an individual.

"it just seems in pretty poor taste to argue that theres nothing wrong with these dudes who are this fucking caught up in their bullshit machismo that they spend all day every day on a video game forum expressing how mortified theyd be to find out their date was trans."

Honestly joe, I just today learned of this term, concern trolling

https://www.bustle.com/articles/144447-what-is-concern-trolling-watch-out-for-this-subtle-form-of-shaming

and frankly it was revelatory for me in regards to your posting style. This is all Ive seen you do on GFAQs, frankly.

If inventing a label for people you disagree with makes it easier for you to dismiss them, that is on you for choosing to act that way.

I always try to communicate in good faith, I believe you claim to do the same, but applying labels to people (ostensibly to more easily dismiss them and their arguments) would be evidence against that.

If you would like to disagree with my previous point that it isn't bigoted or intolerant to have any sexual preferences you are welcome to. I can't stop you from citing online American women's magazine's in disagreements, but unless you fully articulate your point (i.e. "you are a concern troll and that's why what you are saying is wrong or doesn't matter") I don't know how productive such a strategy will be.

I'd much prefer good faith discussions.

^Yeah the same way it could be a problem for that womans boyfriend if he found out shed been with a black guy before. It could be a problem only for a bigot.

If youre making out with someone, odds are youre attracted to them.
If you are attracted to somebody is not the only factor to if you consent to have physical/sexual interaction with them.

You are not a bigot based on your sexual preferences. If you do not want to have any sexual interaction with people with the same biological birth sex as you that is your right and it does not make you a bigot.

You are also not a bigot if you do not want to date people of a certain race. You are only intolerant if you suggest this race is inferior or worse. But a person is totally free to have whatever preferences they have.

Sorry but the way you worded it, sounds like you were trying to shit-stir.

The reason lots of people regardless of age are struggling financially, is rising prices, taxes, and many other factors. There are people busting their asses and struggling just to keep their head above water.

The current generation is going to possibly take more time trying to get and stay on their feet. That's why a lot of em live with family and roommates. Its easier to share living expenses when everything keeps rising. It has always been that way because things rise and fall in cycles.

But lets keep mocking people for their struggles.

I think for most dating it would come out at an early and appropriate time, I think they only possible issues would be hookups that happen at a bar or maybe party that kinda move fast. So you could in theory be making out with somebody before knowing they were born biologically male. And if that is not something you are comfortable with that could be a problem.

you made this up

boomers were not 'socking away' 100 a month at 18. they were in fact not 'socking away' much at all, ever. they are currently in a severe 'retirement crisis' for having not saved nearly enough. 45% have no retirement savings and the median savings among those who do is around 100-150k.

source
https://www.investopedia.com/articles/personal-finance/032216/are-we-baby-boomer-retirement-crisis.asp

they were in college, earning a distribution of degrees that was heavier on liberal arts than millenials' are studying today for about $4000 (total, room and board combined cost, in today's money)

source
https://www.npr.org/sections/money/2014/05/09/310114739/whats-your-major-four-decades-of-college-degrees-in-1-graph

https://cei.org/blog/mind-boggling-increase-tuition-1960-even-students-learn-less-and-less

at 21 they left college and started jobs that rewarded them for their degrees, in an economy that drastically favored americans. they purchased homes straight away that cost about half what they do now, in real dollars (most of the price change from this period was inflation) and made tiny/near-zero down payments.

source
https://www.multpl.com/case-shiller-home-price-index-inflation-adjusted

they saved nothing because their employers promised them real pensions and their employers saved for them. they spent 30 years at those same employers, generally having been rewarded quite a lot early on, and not noticing their pay flattening as they aged.

they retired as such a massive burden on those employers that many are still struggling today to stay afloat because the pension burden of their boomers is so great.

https://www.cfo.com/retirement-plans/2019/12/for-many-cfos-pension-plans-are-millstones-around-the-neck/

they taught their children three things that are total bullshit:

1) just go to college, you don't need a plan. just go.
2) be loyal to your employer! loyalty is rewarded!
3) buy a home, it's the best way to build wealth!

millennials who grew up and generally trusted their parents followed this advice and instead wound up in massive debt. they were not creating NEW debt, they had OLD debt they are paying off, which is much closer to 'socking $100' away than anything boomers were ever doing.

they then entered the workforce just as the bottom fell out of the US economy and their negotiating power hit an all time low. they were employees working jobs for employers who deliberately underpaid them and even as the economy improved, their employers knew that changing jobs was so stressful they often wouldn't. these employers, still burdened by expensive boomer pension plans not at all available to their millennial employees (in place: 401k matching that was trimmed to the bone in 2008 and is only now starting to limp back), opted instead to only reward new hires, while attempting to shame those who realized what was happening and learned to jump ship regularly and play the same game.

millenials following their parents' advice were buying homes in a hyperinflated market that crashed soon after they bought. some were lucky enough to not be ready until after 2008, but remember that the cohort starts in 1981.

Idk, that makes a lot of sense. But it doesn't let baby boomers call millennials lazy, so it must be false.

I was expecting him to just straight up get shot.

Ha, no. But there is a moment in paddington 2 where I've thought of making that "alternate ending", in that movie (spoilers?) somebody points and pulls the trigger on an antique unloaded gun.

Wow, no one mentioned A Whole New World?

Also, Youll be in my Heart from Tarzan.

Nah, neither of those are good enough. Plus isn't the Tarzan not sung by anybody in them movie?

I'm not looking for fame, or money, or anything. I've just make some videos I think are funny and I'd like those who'd enjoy them to see them. But I don't know how particularly because most places will hate you if you try to self-promote. Which doesn't really make sense to me because I'm not getting anything out of this transaction. Just "I made something i think is funny, please check it out"

I've paid yt before just to try to promote a video I made last year to get more views, because I spent a long time on it. And it's still at like 254 views after a year.

So how can I get my video seen by more people who would enjoy seeing it, and preferably not bother anybody not interested in the process?

Alternatively, to those of you with a successful channel, how have you gotten viewers?

Many of these have little to do with JJ.

I liked LOST and Fringe with some caveats

How Far I'll Go from Moana should be on the list.

If it's any song from Moana wouldn't it be "You're Welcome"?

Joe Rogan is not alt-right he's just an idiot
People who ask "dumb" questions can be good interviewers though. Just look at Larry King

Single song? It's a tough question, there isn't a "right" answer, but there are some wrong answers.

I've heard people argue for "Hellfire".

I guess if we made a list of all possible "Best Songs":
Under the sea
Part of that World
Gaston
Be Our Guest
Friend Like Me
Just Can't Wait to Be King
Be Prepared
Paint with all the Colors of the Wind (maybe)
Mine (a personal favorite)
Savages (maybe)
Hellfire
Be A Man (maybe)
I can go the distance

Any others that could be considered best?

Funniest thing about this whole silly argument is Ive rarely met a trans person who isnt upfront anyway. I had brief sex with one post-op trans woman and she stopped it I think because she felt guilty because of the views of people like viewmaster and texted me later asking if I was aware she is trans.

To be clear, are you saying "trans people are usually upfront" and also "there was this one time that a trans person had sex with me before telling me they were trans". Because if so those 2 statements kinda disagree with each other.
