This is like a flat earther saying it's a matter of opinion.
Factually, no school is calling math "racist," and no one of any importance is.
Factually, no school is ignoring science for "bathroom etiquette," and if they're teaching about multiple genders, that's because it's objectively accurate science. If you're disputing that, it's because your teachers failed you, not current teachers failing anyone.

...

Look,

You're both wrong.

They're saying math is racist because nerds often belittle those who aren't as intellecutal as them, which math, and many other things, are a factor.

And there are 2 genders. You're trying too hard to indoctrinate children into otherwise, reasoning it with "science". No one wants to hear it, except you.

Both my kids buy completely into LGBTQ, because kids aren't closeted in their school, they know them, and they don't think there's anything wrong/bad/strange about being that way.
It was never about being closeted. But, there's little point in arguing with you about it. You're too far gone down that path to a point of no return. And with that, I feel sorry for you and your kids.

Cool. More abuse of the "FREE" word.

It's not free if we're forced to use a launcher we don't want to use.

Not only forced to use your launcher, but to jump through all the hoops in that process, and forced to attach ourselves, as an account, to your database of accounts.

From what you are all saying I tend to think I wouldn't like the changes so much. But you never know until you try it yourself.
I'll just keep waiting for a deep, deep discount.
Not even worth a FREE price, because that's still costing you your attention to play a garbage game. Bethesda should be paying YOU to play it.

But I don't want to be dependant on a service. I just want SEGA games on my portable handheld gaming device that I can power with common AA or AAA batteries, with the option of using a lithium battery and ability to charge it.

Screw you, EA

Oof. The #1 worst game is rank #1. I feel bad for the buyers that got what they didn't expect once they play it.

I'm guessing some Bluesnews' readers here are some of those buyers and will try to defend themselves on this, and be like "No, no no. You're wrong. Because, well, you're just wrong. I thought of a reason--I had to think about it for a bit, but I found a reason why I like this game, so, therefore you're wrong."

Okay. Stealing the name "Rocket Arena" from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocket_Arena, then moving the original Wikipedia to be https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocket_Arena_(mod), then redirecting the original page to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocket_Arena_(video_game) so all links from original https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocket_Arena are now going to EA's game.

Trailer starting off with another female warrior, a young teenager, battling in the arena... The background wallpaper featuring the same female teenager warrior... Keep pushing that "feminism" and "equality" agenda EA; whatever it takes to keep the revenue going and avoid drama.

Oof, just when people are starting to learn to get off Google and Microsoft.

Just search for something like "how to browse internet anonymously"

You'll also find stuff about replacing Windows with Linux, using open-source alternatives like Libre Office, and replacing these Google "mobile services" on an Android.

Well, the game isn't free because it's pushing a political message down your throat. So, you're the one losing out here on this deal.

"Team Fortress 2 Classic is a re-imagining ..."

Then it should've been named "Team Fortress 2 Re-imagined" or "Team Fortress 2 Classic+" then.

People that read classic are going to expect classic.

So, now people, who only hear about the title, will be deceived, unless they research it, and therefore those who enjoyed the practice of trust, by skipping research, are affected.

Hey guys. Are you tired of reading this kind of stuff on your favourite gaming news website?

Well, here's a script you can use to filter all of it, changing Bluesnews back to a comfortable experience about gaming.

I temporarily turned off my script so that I may enter this topic and post this message for you all.

Again, I use TamperMonkey extension in my browser, Brave (chrome powered), but you may prefer another extension that let's you inject JavaScript onto websites.

Here is the script:

// ==UserScript==
// @name Bluesnews
// @namespace http://tampermonkey.net/
// @version 0.1
// @description try to take over the world!
// @author You
// @match https://www.bluesnews.com/*
// @grant none
// ==/UserScript==

(function() {
'use strict';

// Your code here...
setTimeout(function() {
var regexTerms = /(racist|confederate|misconduct|harassment|sexual|assault|sexism)/i;
var regexHeadings = /(Metaverse|Tech Bits|Safety Dance|Legal Briefs|Op Ed|Into the Black|etc\.|Out of the Blue)$/i;
var els = document.querySelectorAll("a");
els.forEach(function(el, idx) {
if (el.innerHTML.match(regexHeadings) || el.innerHTML.match(regexTerms)) {
var heading = el.closest(".posting");
if (heading !== null) {
var article = heading.parentNode.parentNode;
if (article !== null) {
article.parentNode.removeChild(article);
}
}
}

if (el.innerHTML.match(regexTerms) || el.innerHTML.match(regexHeadings)) {
var li = el.closest("li");
if (li !== null) {
li.parentNode.removeChild(li);
}
else {
el.parentNode.removeChild(el);
}
}
});
els = document.querySelectorAll(".article");
els.forEach(function(el, idx) {
if (el.innerHTML.match(regexHeadings) || el.innerHTML.match(regexTerms)) {
var article = el.parentNode.parentNode;
article.parentNode.removeChild(article);
}
});
},250);
})();


That's it!

If you find any news that still shows up, then pick a word from that and add it to the regexTerms list, separated by |

Do they explain how the people will know that it's truly anonymous? If not, then this ain't going to work.

I hope anonymous means that it's hosted by a 3rd-party, and that the link is the same link for everyone -- no attached hashcode or tracking coded.

I've seen this before, and experienced it at my own job. It was for filling a report on the business, and they said it would be anonymous, yet the link they provided me had a unique tracking code attached to it. /facepalm

Anyone listen to NYT podcast "Rabbit Hole", its investigative look into YouTube? It starts off looking into the 'recommended algorithm' and YouTube's wilful ignorance to the side effects on the viewer, or exploitation of the creator. It then spirals out to view more of the Internet realm... heck I even discovered a few things.

I haven't, but I'm not surprised. I've slowly learned and felt something wrong with YouTube, especially the Recommended section, which is the first thing you see whenever opening up YouTube.

I finally setup a JavaScript to deal with it by auto-selecting one of the Recommended filter buttons in the top bar, using an extension (I just found) called Tampermonkey. I use Brave browser, by the way, which uses Chrome engine.

So, I go to YouTube, and Create new Script in Tampermonkey, that looks like this:

Tampermonkey

// @name youtube
// @namespace http://tampermonkey.net/
// @version 0.1

// Your code here...

if (choice === null) { choice = document.querySelector('[title="Comedy"]'); }
if (choice !== null) {
choice.parentNode.dispatchEvent(new Event('click'));
}
}, 500);
})();
