My question for the last 9+ months has been, “how long can a market willingly ignore reality?”

How long did we kick the foundations out of the US dollar when we got rid of the gold standard, and just let it float on speculation and feelings? What, 60-70 years now?

How long has the stock market existed on the whims of people's feelings over cold hard statistics and long-term analysis?

Markets have been ignoring reality for many decades.

This is an example of what I feel is a watering down of this YSK forum. Knowledge like this is so esoteric as to be useless to a vast majority of the people here. JetBrains develops programming tools, and this post should go into a programming forum.

I've found that as long as you put YSK in front of the title, you can post any damn thing you want here. There's barely any moderation against the type of posts that are brought here. It's just a place to put a post in a high-volume forum, so that it gets at least triple-digit upvotes.

This article is basically just bemoaning that AAA develops for the lowest common denominator, which I can understand as a gripe, but it’s a very old gripe.

And an easy one to fix: Don't fucking buy AAA games!

Whichever choice we make here, the other one is relegated to a limited, auxiliary role in generation, and can never reach its full potential.

No, you didn't. You were literally arguing for a binary choice.

I don’t agree with Walking Dead S07E01 being first

It's ScreenRant. They probably were paid to create this list just to promote Walking Dead.

What bugs me about this shitty campaign from Collective Shout and the other "pretend to care about the children" orgs, is that Roblox has been right there the whole time. PMG did two videos exposing Roblox over two years ago, and I know others have followed suit in the games media, but these orgs stayed silent.

Shit like this was possible before AI. Companies have been deceiving other people since civilization.

Doesn't really matter. Fraud is still fraud.

Sounds like a great way to make people aware to not play this game.

There's a reason you don't do both.

The Secret War To Censor The Internet

Recent Lextorias video explains how a 2018 FOSTA-SESTA law amended protections to the Communications Decency Act, and immediately opened the flood gates for targeted harassment of payment processors for adult content censorship.
