Welp…I know what I’m doing tonight.
- Comment on YouTube could roll out ads while videos are paused after “strong traction” in experiment 6 months ago:
What’s their definition of “traction” if people literally don’t have a choice?
Traction is a marketing buzz word, as though they’re trying to say “Our pilot project was a success because x number of people viewed our ads.”
But that’s completely meaningless because a) they didn’t choose to do so, and b) YouTube has no fucking idea if any of those people actually watched the ads or turned elsewhere until they were done.
- Comment on [Discussion] What are you're thoughts on a Steamdeck with a PSP Go form factor? 10 months ago:
Much of the “slider” form factor died out early for a very good reason.
The simple reality is that the more moving parts you put on something, the more parts there are to break. It’s why phones became boring rectangles, hand-held gaming devices became slightly less boring rectangles, and why physical buttons were phased out of mp3 players, phones, etc…
Physical things cause complexity. Complexity disrupts efficiency.
