I mean, they'll still compete for time and attention from the asset makers having to offer support to all of them, so...

This reminds me of that classic XKCD strip about competing standards, where they try to unify them and now there's +1 competing standard

When the books are compact, but require the James Webb Telescope to actually read

Also the endless repeat of the "Infinity Ward Curse"

A lot of Respawn people were ex-IW devs. And a lot of people from Wildlight came from Respawn.

Even if a lot of these weren't the same that came from IW, this would still demolish the morale of any team going through it.

And you just know it could've gone even worse, 'cause at the very least they gave it *some* physical buttons, while the trend a few years ago would be just making everything yet another toggle or slider inside a flood of nested menus accessed through a single touchscreen.

They rolled the decision back, but at this point the trust is already gone.

Pretty sure a lot of animation teams are already looking for alternatives instead of having to live in fear of Adobe pulling the plug on a whim again.

At this point the trust is already gone. Adobe shot themselves in the foot, there's no "sewing it back in".

Feeling "safe" is paramount. Animation teams having to worry whether their entire workflow, rigs and assets will have to be reworked on Adobe's whim? They'll probably be seeking alternatives.

College was that moment when all that lateral thinking and knowledge-sponginess was essentially useless when a lot of the fundamental classes were about very strict principles that had to be memorized and made very little sense. Creativity was discouraged.

No wonder my performance tanked hard :D

Similar case here. They didn't have a "gifted kid" program, but the list of things they tried...
- Considered having me skip a year
- Put me in many extra-curricular activities, most of them art-related
- Gave me advanced books and material that were beyond my grade
...And then came college :D

This reminds me of how a friend of mine recommended buying a box of floppy disks alongside the Dualshock 3, because the springs in the triggers were prone to snapping/being lost in maintenance and floppy disk dust cover springs were *almost exactly* the right size to improvise a replacement.

It baffles me how Morbol Piss Hell is *still* getting adjustments to this very day. Past some point it stopped being "that" hellish, but it's still one of my least favorite dungeons of the ARR era.

....Not to mention how a lot of sub-only shows are losing stuff like little custom typesetting for Japanese-written elements on screen, or like.... translating things in general that aren't just whatever the protagonists are saying.

It's nearly unwatchable. I will unsub if this continues.

Very close to canceling my @crunchyroll.com sub, because of their enshittification of the subtitling pipeline.

I have a disorder where it's sometimes hard to parse multiple people talking, and I relied a lot on closed captions, but now a lot of show's don't even get those, or what we get is shit.

A crop of the "bio" section of my profile, implying I updated my age from 35 to 36.

Nah, I did mean Sauber but because of their vibe of being the underdogs with the shittiest car but that people keep rooting for them XD

(Same for Minardi, they had that role for years until they became Red Bull 2)

Force India just happened to fit that role *and* the color scheme though XD

Hmmmmm what colors would Haru Urara be wearing: pink Force India, classic Minardi or current-day Sauber?

So, the thing is, today Aaron "accidentally" revealed why this happens.

Turns out the labeling is done through an automated AI system and the moderation actually doesn't have any input on it.

Fun :D
