    Believe it or not, I actually got some chores done today.

    And that's saying something, because if Diablo IV was this good at any point last year, it would have definitely been near the top of my Best Games of 2023. You know, instead of being omitted entirely.

    So let's just say that Armored Core VI absolutely just got smacked out of the running for Best Yesteryear Game.

    Updates and Such

    Well, as a thunderstorm rolls overhead (and hopefully doesn't knock power out), I thought I'd offer some updates on what I've been up to.

    Long story short, I'm pretty much in gaming overload at the moment.

God, please give me some entertainment on this boring work day. · 7:27pm Jan 26th, 2022

God: "Okay, Miles. Here's an r/antiwork mod going on Fox News who doesn't believe eye contact is all that important in society to do an interview. And the entire subreddit going private when it expectedly blows up in their faces."

I love when prayers are answered.

Eh, i don’t know a lot about the situation, but from what you’ve said here, I just want to say that a lot of people, myself included, have a very hard time for one reason or another maintaining eye contact with a given participant in conversation. For me, it’s because I’ve been affected by what they used to call Aspergers for my whole life. (It’s now called ASD level 1)

Now, like i said, I don’t know much abut the drama, nor what it was like to watch the interview so it might very well transpire that all of what i’ve written is entirely baseless, but what I do know is that i think it’s important to say that I’m not really gonna blame this person for believing what he does. In my experience, it really doesn’t, nor SHOULD IT matter whether or not a given person can maintain eye contact in an interview or in a work-based environment.

In my current job, if I’d rank the people i work with honestly, i’m probably at least in the Top 40 or so out of about 150 people. Worst case scenario, I am better at my job than 110 others. I think that says quite a bit for someone who doesn’t do something that a lot of people seem to feel is vital to being productive in the workplace.

Perhaps I did unfairly call that out, probably because it's a quote from this absolute cuntnugget during this meltdown.

If this person was the one the mod team chose to send onto live TV, I cannot imagine who they passed up.

They singlehandedly did more damage to their movement in an afternoon than any far-right troll could hope to do in a lifetime.

I don't get anti-work. It's like...who's going to make all the stuff? Robots? Who's going to build and maintain the robots?

Yeah, that's part of the entertainment.

The owner made it as a 'fuck work, crash the system' type of place, but the vast majority of the subscribers co-opted it as labor reform.

Not really effective when the sub is named that piss-poorly.

Now that it's gone private (as of this writing), thousands have migrated over to the much more aptly named r/WorkerReform.

I sometimes browse the subreddit out of morbid curiosity, and from what little snippets I've gotten the community "collectively" decided none of the mods would do an interview with the press, and yet this goober did and made a laughing stock out of them. And when some users called him out for it they got banned for "trolling".

So I guess this is what happens when someone who forms an anarchist movement goes on a power trip?
