Ah, so they’d be competing with my phone’s already aggressive need to protect me from notifications it deems unwanted. Be that as it may, I don’t use the feature anyway.

I’d rather have notifications for channels that don’t upload very often (thus I don’t interact much with them) because when they do upload, I’m likely to miss it.

Non-native here, I’m very sorry but I can’t parse that sentence.

One might think they’d be cheaper.

This is the internet, there is no healthy version of anything.

Oh shi- riiiight the thing with the mini-games, I’ve heard about that! Just didn’t connect the dots here, I guess.

That entire page goes WAY over my head so I’ll take your word for it, hah.

Can you patent a game mechanic? I could see the implementation of a mechanic being protected, the specific way the code is written in a game, which would mean you can always find a different way to achieve the same result. What are you thinking of when you say “game mechanic”?

Okay but those therapists aren’t doing their job. They’re not giving therapy. That doesn’t mean not everyone can benefit from therapy.

Circumstances being less than ideal doesn’t mean that “therapy isn’t for everyone”. Therapy is therapy.

Oh you’re saying that this is about right wingers who think the Last Samurai is okay (while Ass Creed isn’t).

… That… makes sense. Huh. I hadn’t seen it that way.

That’s presumably the beginnings of an awareness of why that narrative is problematic. And also of the importance of historic accuracy. His role in the narrative was that of a saviour though. (Also, he survives.)

And even then, there were people who were uncomfortable with a narrative of some heroic white dude coming in to save the exotic natives. Just wasn’t a very popular opinion.

There is a lot of highly critical discourse around the Last Samurai. Not current, because it’s not a current movie, but saying that it’s “okay” suggests you they haven’t looked for criticism.

Also, weary.

Edit: clarity.

Edit2: I have since been made aware by @SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world of a different perspective that makes a lot more sense, see comments below.

Yes but that’s because it’s Germany, not because it’s a castle.

Those two people just need to agree on one way to express a thought, whether that way “makes sense” or not.

Weird thing to say, “you aren’t ready for what you are in the process of getting ready for”.

Bad argument, what counts is how a term is actually used, not what it meant originally. (No I’m not saying OP is right)

Language is under no obligation to make sense.

Pssst, don’t let Elon hear.
