I went to PAX many years, only place ever met such people, but even then there many were board game only snobs. There are a lot of board game snobs in my city, but they generally hate video games for being 'anti social'.

anytime i mention that i play games it illicits are very negative/suspicious reaction. but if i say i spend 10 hours riding my bike or reading or going to restaurants that's seen as worthy and legit. i guess i don't see any of those as more 'constructive' than any other activity.

I've never met anyone what was pro video game other than on the internet. Even people who do play games I know only do so on the DL because they know it is a social faux pas.

that's the other thing. hating video games is like saying you hate books, or anything on a screen.

it's a medium with tons of genres and game play types that are often radically different. plus the 'haters' often do like games like guitar hero or dave and busters stuff or phone games. i guess because it's 'normal', but apparnetly playing mario on a switch isn't.

They new FFX frigates are supposed to be glorified drone controllers/motherships. Makes sense. dispersed force is the future.

there is no ethics in politics. there is only power.

the ethics is what the people in power say it is.

hence why the dems eat their own over a misunderstoodjoke, and the republicans promote child rapists.

 

Seriously, I don't get it. It's just a thing people do. Sometimes to an extreme.. but if you are a extreme sports fan or extreme traveler... that's 'cool'. Meanwhile your mild dorky video game habit makes you persona non grata if people find out or you talk about it in public.

It's 2025. I don't understand.

you can plug an ergo keyboard into your laptop. my workplace gives a person two keyboards if they need ergo. one for home and one for office.
