Tempted to actually put this on spotify so I can secretly stream it at work...

Tagging @batshit-auspol because as an Australian you're the only big account I know who might share (sorry).

okay if you haven't yet, participate in the poll before clicking the readmore because I'm gonna respond to someone's tags and I don't want to influence your answer

so first of all this is a poll where I've prompted people to play pretend with imaginary dice and I cannot comprehend what assumptions you'd have to make to think this is a question with a correct answer.

but if it did have a "correct answer", surely the correct answer would be whatever the most likely result of the sum of two six-sided dice rolls is, right? and that's seven. because there are more ways for the results of two six-sided dice to add to seven than anything else. like, it makes perfect sense that the results of this poll are what they are. what are you talking about.

I give it 4 months before a conservative says this unironically in the comments of a post or video

[janmisali]

Apologies if you’ve seen these before, but I went to the Nintendo museum today and I saw two different lists of what games were in the super Mario series. One is in the museum itself and the other one is featured in the Nintendo museum official book. Although, the only difference between them is that the books list is more extensive and includes the remake/rereleases

wait, color coding with which games qualify as remakes and super mario maker for nintendo 3ds isn't one? this is huge tbh

[dunk-may-mays]

Neither is NSMBU Deluxe

I was in first grade, and I have distinct, concrete memories from that time

Does Link count as canonically left or right handed? Or does every version of Link (including the 2 different Twilight Princess versions) count as separate entries?

[janmisali]

related to the recent batch of similar polls, wiktionary helpfully says that the software sense of "third-party" (as in "developed or published independently from the company responsible for the hardware the software is for") is contrasted with both "first-party" and "second-party", but then doesn't actually define the software sense of "second-party" on that page?

like it clearly means a different thing from what "second-party" means in a general business or commerce sense. but what the heck is second-party software. it's a term I've seen used and as far as I can tell it doesn't have a real definition more specific than "kinda between first- and third-party". someone should look into it and find some proper citations for how people actually use this term

[hartsnkises]

Isn't the second-party the user?

[janmisali]

my understanding is that's the commerce sense of the term. in software (mostly video games) it means a different thing

[dunk-may-mays]

I've heard "second party game developer" refer to something where the developer isn't fully owned by the console manufacturer. Like Game Freak makes Pokémon for Nintendo and Nintendo only, but also released Tembo the Badass Elephant on Xbox, Playstation, and PC using a different publisher. I could be completely wrong on this though

[ivorybacchus]

hey. to the person who uses character.ai for...whatever reason.

stop it. go roleplay with an actual fucking person.

like seriously. there are probably literally hundred of roleplaying blogs on this site. start searching for the ones that fit your vibe, that will match your pace, etc. and reach out.

i promise you that rping with an actual person is more goddamn fun and meaningful and rewarding than whatever drivel AI can come up with

[dunk-may-mays]

I feel like the fact that I never used Siri or Bixby or Google Assistant or whatever for any tasks and just navigated menus on my phone for anything I wanted to search or use on it innoculated me against the urge to use generative AI for basically any purpose

What's a video game?

Watch the new episode now on Dropout

is Brian right?

yes, I agree completely with Brian David Gilbert's definition of "video game".

no, his definition is too inclusive.

no, his definition is too exclusive.

no, his definition is completely misaligned with mine.

I have no strong opinion on the definition of "video game" so it's whatever

I think it's a little too inclusive when it starts to include the fitbit, but I do agree that word games are games, and digital word games are video games. I've not used a modern fitbit though, so maybe they include more game-y elements than then basic one I used in 2015

No nuance the normal option is only one and i want statistics to prove to my parents that something is deeply wrong with them

[dunk-may-mays]

I sleep with it open because I live alone with two cats. If the door was closed they'd go crazy

[augustheart]

you guys just say sentences

[huffy-the-bicycle-slayer]

I mean it is sorta counter cultural to admit you're a swifty on tumblr these days

[augustheart]

no it isn’t. hope this helps

[prettyboysdontlookatexplosions]

[anhedonicaddict]

I mean if the culture is to hate swift... then the counter to that.... no... I shouldnt say...

[dementiabellcurve]

Whatever, dude - I don’t get why people are treating CULTURE and SUBCULTURES like math, with double negatives and shit. You clearly don’t know wtf you’re talking about lol

[anhedonicaddict]

My bad! What i meant to say was gogogaga little fella welcome to planet earth! Sometimes one place is going to have a specific culture that is different from cultures found in other places! And that means that the counter culture found in one area may resemble or even be identical to the primary culture in another place! That doesn't mean that they are the same, they may even represent different ideals within there own context! Isn't that fun?

[dementiabellcurve]

We’re talking about Taylor Swift, you actual idiot

[anhedonicaddict]

That only makes this whole thing 10x funnier istg

[dementiabellcurve]

Just to clarify, Taylor Swift, in your words, is counter cultural? Taylor Swift, who is a billionaire?

[anhedonicaddict]

You're missing on the poor friendo. Taylor swift to the general American public? To the most common person? NOT PUNK. Inside a website plagued with self righteous hot topic goths that identify punk by brand? Absolutely

[augustheart]

does anyone in this thread pOHGHHB MY G-D WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[captaincrusher]

I am having too much fun with the Star Trek character wheel. So, new game.

You are a captain in need of a crew. Spin the wheel 3 times. Which one of these 3 do you assign as your number one, your pilot and your science officer?

How will your crew's next mission go?

Excellent!

We will probably make it...

I have strong doubts

We're cooked

I need you all to know I spun it again and got the female changeling, Grand Nagus Zek and Kira, who is the only bitch I trust in this group so she has to be my first officer. I guess my ship is piloted by a murderous changeling and I have to trust Zek to do the science??

This mission is not going to go well.

[dunk-may-mays]

Lily Sloane, Guinan, and Beverly Crusher. I'll probably be fine, and end the trip with more than a few stories to tell

[lesbianshepard]

"Empires only last 250 years" is a bullshit claim that gets passed around a lot, but I need you to see the data the guy (Sir John Glubb) was using because it is exceptionally clear that he was just pulling numbers out of his ass

[dunk-may-mays]

Ah yes, the Ottoman Empire, which famously did not exist after 1570
