Re: The Coalition Dev Kate Rayner Comes Out As Transgender, Met With Industry Support

@EVIL-C I agreed with you up to "creating literal safe media spaces". You mentioned Gab. I have only read about them. They were created to give people a place to speak freely. Not to dodge consequences. Mr. Smith on Twitter is still Mr. Smith on Gab. The people are going to Gab because they are censored on twitter. Or because they do not like social media censorship.

If it was just pushback. Like debate. Arguing ideas. And they still went to Gad to avoid that then yes your would be correct its a safe space. But they are being banned .

Example would be say if I like to discuss video game stuff and a site like this posts a story "like this" and I share my medical opinion. They decided anything negative is hate speech and ban my account. I in turn make a Xbox fan site that allows that opinion. Its not a safe space its a refuge camp for people that have bee silenced or fear being silence.

I just disagree with you on the reason people are going to alternative sites. I think they are banned people and silenced people that cant openly talk about there opinions because its just labeled as hate speech (the new catch all term). Which is different from the reason people use Safe Spaces in schools.

@EVIL-C It is my understand the Safe Spaces that are mocked are rooms created in schools (mostly colleges) that allow people to escape things they find offensive or anxiety inducing. So I do not think they are comparable. If those rooms were designed for people to gather in because they were not allowed to say there opinions anywhere else and were banned from speaking in any other room. Then yes your comparison would make sense.

With fear of censorship, job loss and cancel culture why would you risk being anything but supportive. They have shamed billions of people into silence.

When you have 50 people in a room and 10 say they love cake. Then 20 agree just so they do not get hated on by the loud vocal 10. The remaining 20 just shut up out of fear. Headline = " This place massively supports cake". But do they really.

Re: Random: What Happened To User Reviews On The Xbox Store?

KonstantTrouble

It was removed by my guess to suppress opinions. Eventually a game will release that is divisive. It will draw people to review bomb it. I have no problem with review bombing. Its a penalty to developers that do stupid things. They could change and learn but no, instead they will lobby stores to remove review's.

Re: Talking Point: What Do You Still Want To Know About The Xbox Series X|S?

@graysoncharles That is not what the BC team said months ago. Here is the quote from the article.

"Microsoft is planning to automatically add HDR support to games played on its upcoming Xbox Series X console. While existing games will automatically play better on the Xbox Series X, Microsoft is also doing some work to add HDR support and even improve some games from a 30fps locked framerate to 60fps, or 60fps to 120fps."

As it says "improve some games from a 30fps locked" So they claim they have invented a new technique that can double framerates on locked framerates in games with no developer intervention.
