About the first link:
Is cherry picked the right word there?
I didn't follow this in detail, but what i heard was that collective shout was applying pressure towards removal of things that were not exactly what they said they were?
So in any case where their accusation was not true, people would have lost access to already payed content (with the online model being a main part of the problem, since you can loose your payed for content) for no good reason, and probably without refunds.
So if i understood that correctly, i'd say it was trolling in order to play the victim and thus the selection of the not ok angry messages is just superficial, and not the base problem with games.
Never trust that you can keep any content you merely rented, as indicated by being forced to be online to access it.

About the second link:
I don't see how "cherry picking" could make sense here. If that kind of stuff is happening, it's wrong. All i can see they claim here is that it is happening and that it's a problem. They didn't say other forms of hateful messages were ok.
I don't agree with their idea of banning IP adresses, but that's a technological concern, not undermining the message of "hateful messages are not ok".
@PippiPunkstrumpf Leichte Anklänge von dem Scifi-Trope wo Leute wenn sie 20 werden sterben weil älter wäre ja nicht cool.
Ständig werden Warnungen als Anleitung genommen *schnaub*
@renardboy Isn't there a place where to bring the trash that does not belong into the garbage bins in canada? Like for all the discarded electronics, construction waste, bulk waste?
Here in germany those guys take chemical waste too.
@interfluidity We have some very progressive bribe packages you can purchase to have one or multiple posts disregarded!
@PippiPunkstrumpf Völlig richtig, dieses Ideal ist ein sehr problematisches.
@OhMyGod
Globalisierung, so wie sie passiert ist sehe ich auch als Teil des Problems.
Ich denk nur halt, sich um Brotkrumen streiten wegen echtem oder imaginiertem Unwillen zu arbeiten hilft nicht.
Solange ich arbeite bin ich gerne bereit, Menschen mitzutragen, die nicht arbeiten. Null Problemo, ich hab genug Leute kennengelernt, bei denen ich überzeugt davon bin, dass sie zu den aktuellen Bedingungen nicht arbeiten können, großteils wegen Psyche. Leider ist aber das mittragen nicht so einfach möglich, ich war in den letzten Jahren zwei mal arbeitslos und habe die Erfahrung gemacht, was dann passiert. Das ist leider sehr hinderlich, nicht hilfreich was die BA so tut. Sehr schade, was da von meinem Geld finanziert wird.
Ich denke du bist voll dabei, dass Arbeit besser bezahlt werden muss, die Arbeitsbedingungen auch anständig sein müssen. Wir haben also keinen Konflikt, sondern nur ein bisschen verschiedene Blickwinkel?
@nineofseven
If six are missing, the activity you thought about needs nine people... perhaps some elaborate board game?
@renardboy Releasing humans into the wild is gated by destroying civilization.
Lot of work to do.
@kalfatermann Sleep well, interesting person.
@exchgr We need those for cute dinosaurs, dude.
@kalfatermann WARUM ZUR HÖLLE IST NICHT ALLES PERFEKT?!? AaaaAAAaaah!
@lerxst
Oh come on, they were just doing nice stuff, no need to introduce the capitalist means of destruction
@LibertyForward1
@kalfatermann I'm not great either. It does not matter, trying is enough.
@renardboy No growing on MY LAWN!
@kalfatermann You are an interesting fellow.
@kalfatermann I grew up listening to bad religion, offspring, some harsh black metal.
Ah, that was clash. Yeah, nice.
@kalfatermann Immediate association: the clash and demon head, scott pilgrim reference.
But you probably mean the band, let me check that out.
@renardboy So the distinction is not wanting an answer?
@kalfatermann 90s sounds good, still some punk there. Talking also sounds good, it's why i like you.
I speak german and english.
Interested in:
- crude jokes
- philosophy
- how people get along
- different viewpoints
- gaming, especially strategy/arpgs
- (java) programming
If i reply but did not favourite your toot: most likely i forgot. I get caught up in talking, i forget.
I generally invite questions. If you look for a clue if it is ok to ask hard questions: this is it. As long as it is in good faith and you want to know wtf i was thinking, go ahead please.
