Yeah, I think you need to do another lap on your rollerblades and come back to this.

speaking of GRRM using Windows XP, I learned that the dude still uses WordStar 4.0 or something, which is on DOS QuoteWordStar was the program of choice for conservative intellectual William F. Buckley, Jr.,[29] who used the software to write many works, including his last book. This was noted by his son, Christopher Buckley, who wrote of the almost comical loyalty and affection his father had shown for WordStar, which he had installed into every new computer he purchased despite the technical difficulty of such an endeavor as the program became increasingly outdated and incompatible with newer computers. He said of WordStar, "I'm told there are better programs, but I'm also told there are better alphabets."[29]Ralph Ellison also used WordStar.[30]Canadian science fiction author Robert J. Sawyer continues to use WordStar for DOS 7.0 (the final release) to write his novels.[31][32]A Song of Ice and Fire author George R. R. Martin still uses the MS-DOS version of WordStar 4.0.[33]Andy Breckman, the creator of Monk, is a devout WordStar user[34].Vampire fiction writer Anne Rice was another faithful user of WordStar who struggled to have it installed on newer computers until it could no longer reasonably be done. She then grudgingly transitioned to Microsoft Word, whose design she felt was comparatively unintuitive and illogical: "WordStar was magnificent. I loved it. It was logical, beautiful, perfect," adding, "Compared to it, MS Word which I use today is pure madness."[35]

So watching E3 yesterday, Boogie appeared two times at Geoffs Youtube E3 show (again) playing Crash Racing.Then later with Kotakus Stephen Totilo have another small chat.People are asking why gamers get more radicalized. We have people like "ching chang chong" Dr Disrespect getting trending gamer awards. "Took out of context Notch"" podcast hosts. "Both Sides Boogie" appearing over and over again at such events, giving them outreach.Why is no one calling them out on that? It seems instead of calling those people out, the "industry" even wants to hang with them and give them a plattform.
This thread is closed due to our blanket E3 rules:QuoteNo reaction threads – To prevent clutter we will lock all reaction threads during E3. A reaction thread is a topic about a hot take or some other personal reaction to anything that did or did not happen during E3. Examples include "Why wasn't the Switch 2 announced?", "Did Ubisoft just win E3?" and "I can't believe the leaks were real". These sort of topics can be discussed in news threads and conference threads.This can be discussed in the stream thread for now. However, this specific discussion is interesting, please feel free to remake it next week. Thanks.

It is copyright infringement. Everything someone makes is protected by copyright. If you talk about Game of Thrones, you're talking about someone's copyrighted work. That's copyright infringement. Unless it's fair use. This is very simple, and why I am asking you to simply google what copyright infringement actually is. You believe it is making derivative works, but that's a small part of what it is. I figured DMCA strikes would be a helpful clue to you, but you seem to only be out to making arguments for yourself and completely disregarding everything I'm saying. There's little I can do when someone's factually wrong and refuses to be corrected, so have a nice day.
The industry has too big a problem with this, good on Nintendo taking action. Nothing worse than an incomplete leak screwing the real announcement with all info.A leak years in advance with some general bullet points is fine, but just days ahead of a reveal is so awful.

pls do not post spoilers for the nintendo direct, i don't want to know which 40-y/o ip is being humped before miyamoto tells me
So the developer of Mario and Rabbid who worked on a passion project under his hero and put himself in the hospital because of stress to make the best game possible doesn't deserve any empathy when his hard work was dumped on the internet and then torn apart by people because people throughs the premise was stupid and the game shouldn't even exist? Not because they even played the game and judged it to be bad, just the premise alone? It just hurt the 'marketing gimmick' and their 'feelings'. Good lord.
What do you mean "believe in confidentiality"?
QuoteI still don't get the point of throwing in "cock sucker". It's homophobic and misyognstic and I really don't want to hear casual unnecessary slurs like that when I'm trying to enjoy a game (or game trailer).Especially in a game that's set so far in the future where you could reasonably assume that people might have come up with some new (possibly less homophobic) insults.

Can you please help me with what you want clarified, before we stray too far? I'm happy to try and clarify. Talking about something that a source has told you is copyright infringement, yes. There's no difference is speech and text in the eyes of the law, so I don't really know how to demonstrate that negative. Nowhere does it say in copyright law that it must be written, as opposed to anything else. The distinction is there in other parts of law, like libel and slander, but not in copyright law. Breaking copyright is using other people's copyrighted work. Fair use can save you, so if you leak something and it's not a big part that's being leaked – and let me restate that I believe the name of a game is a big part of the copyrighted work when it comes to announcement – you may have a fair use case. If it's transformative, as in providing commentary or otherwise. If the leak doesn't affect the market of the copyrighted work (see Mario vs Rabbids for an example of this). And finally the nature of the copyrighted work. Is it published? Is it fictional? If it's unpublished and fictional, like with these games, then the bar is higher for fair use.This was posted a while back. I believe the example used with Mario vs Rabbids, since the right to first publish was hindered, the public had a field day with the game before it was allowed to be set in context, and the game is argued to have performed worse due to a leak.
Good, leakers are loosers who kill the fun for 4 seconds of fame and they should be reprimanded for their behavior. Next Nintendo should really consider black listing these reputed gaming sights that keep confirming unsubstantiated rumors

Evil Within 2 for me was really generic, you could really feel it was directed by a white guy. Well each to their own.

You can really feel that these posts here are made by white guys.
You're an idiot.
We've got an asshole here, people.
Are you being dense on purpose?
QuoteSome of you are desperately tring to make it sound like someone dropped the executable on a torrent and that this wasn't just someone posting the title of a video game on twitter before it was announced.How ruined would Endgame have been if you knew the subtitle a week earlySome of these leaks are more significant than the subtitle to a movie which we already knew the plot of. You're throwing context out of the window here.

Financial damage IS damage.

Jesus, this is like arguing with Trump supporters.
Except for the people who you know, lost their job and a ton a money because one person wanted to stick it to the man but instead hurt all their co-workers. But who gives a damn about that, the game concept lives on somewhere so gamers are happy. And that's what really matters.Nice missing the entire point about respecting the people who make those commercial and not finding it cool that someone leaked all their information for their 15 minutes of fame. They can just go fuck off, apparently because it's just a commercial.
A commercial made by developers to sell the product we spent years making to be able to make more games for you guys out of a passion for this industry.
(just ignore the jobs lost, the change of studio and all those hours of work lost, who cares of that insignificant collateral damage? is nonexistent!)please, be at least a little serious about this, we are trying to debate something that has consecuences, although they could be dismisive for you... many families wont feel the same
QuoteProof will always be in the pudding, I can't imagine Dragon AI Modeller #3 being mad because a game announcement leaked earlyI promise you they probably are.

too be fair, y'all still call me transphobic because of that time I suggested trans people listen to the advice of medical professionals
HBO has canceled Vice News Tonight, putting an end to its seven-year relationship with Vice Media.The architect of that show, news chief Josh Tyrangiel, will depart Vice this summer after nearly four years of, per a memo he sent to staff, “harrowing challenges and huge highs” with the company.Amid the changes at Vice News, CEO Nancy Dubuc has tapped Jesse Angelo, the former chairman and CEO of the New York Post, for a newly created role overseeing news, television and digital at Vice. She announced the staffing changes in an email to Vice employees Monday morning. “Jesse is joining us to create expanded platform opportunities and franchises for all our great talent and the content we are making every day,” Dubuc wrote in the note, which a Vice spokeswoman shared with THR.
Not everyone at every company is gonna believe everything you believe. I'm not worried about the inner thoughts of the guy flipping my burger, nor those of people creating games that catch my interest and i wanna play. I'll be buying Cyberpunk for sure
I sort of want the person flipping my burgers to recognize basic human rights of minorities if you know what I mean tho.

Seems like there are a lot of people who just are never gunna get it...A severe lack of empathy maybe? I dunno. But some people here are truly sad.Let companies control their message. End of freaking story. Don't defend leaks/leakers.
I'd assume the means by which she got the info was illegally obtained, either by breaking an NDA or hacking
Nintendo can do whatever it wants with its own property. It’s not this person’s right or privilege to be leaking someone else’s work.
QuoteBut how could Nintendo even force her to stop. Did sabi sign NDAs?Copyright.

I lol'd at them choosing a generic white dude as the face of the game thats originally created by a black man and having said basic white dude go into a room and murk a bunch of black people .
