imagine my fucking shock supply always outpaces the fucking demand. :/
Cover Corp opened a new branch in California and Yagoo made the company public. Guess who's investing in Cover Corp now? Blackrock, Vanguard, and State street. Expect many more graduations of popular names from that corporation that is starting to rot.Something strange I noticed today. A Hololive streamer is graduating and Hololive put out this post clarifying terms, but there is a mistranslation in the English version of the post that seems like a deliberate dogwhistle.

The Japanese version of that header is 「より様々な活動ができるプロダクションへ」 which you could argue says diverse (but it's talking about a diverse range of activities, not people), but you can't argue that it says anything close to "inclusive". I wonder if Hololive has anything to do with this or if it is a rogue translator.
Rutgers university is a complete shit show. It's actually surprising that research team managed to look into the D.E.I nonsense properly and produce that report without getting kicked out of the institution immediately.Both the Network Contagion Research Institute (NCRI) and Rutgers University’s Social Perception Lab produced studies showing that DEI pushed on participants led some of them to become irrationally confrontational and antagonistic.
“The evidence presented in these studies reveals that while purporting to combat bias, some anti-oppressive DEI narratives can engender a hostile attribution bias and heighten racial suspicion, prejudicial attitudes, authoritarian policing, and support for punitive behaviors in the absence of evidence for a transgression deserving punishment,” the study released Monday argues.
Participants that read the anti-racist material developed a “hostile attribution bias” and were more likely to believe in punitive measures for offenders of so-called microaggressions even without evidence, according to the study.
Funny thing that came out from all that; both New York Times and Bloomberg refused to share those findings - decision made by their respective editors.
And mass media keep wondering why people no longer trust them.
It's for Video Games it's why I posted that here. But I think maybe if more posts start trending in the direction of everything else it might be better to do a general. But it's highly unlikely as Video Games is full of it.Updating the thread title to clarify it's for DEI as it is related to video games. If OP wants it to be a general thread, then mods can move the thread to an appropriate subforum.
If I remember right it's a port.Is the new port of Fantasian, Fantasian Neo Dimension, censored from the original Apple Arcade release?
Why aren't we suing these people for blatant civil rights violations? Affirmative action in university admissions was shut down the moment it was challenged in court."every White Person in Rockstar had to undergo a Mandatory Unconscious Bias Training and got a shiny certificate afterwards"
I swear if there is even the slightest bit of truth to that...
Well that's completely expected. We all know that Koei Tecmo went woke years ago. They outright admitted to have started adopting ESG.
Koei Tecmo Likely To Censor 'Fatal Frame: Mask Of The Lunar Eclipse' Remaster Across All Platforms
Japanese horror game remaster Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse will be censored, as some costumes have been "slightly altered."boundingintocomics.com
Well they don't have Chris Avelone any more. And he has not been able to get work after it has been proven those chores were lying.Man, the downward spiral of Obsidian that began with Pillars of Eternity 2, and The outer worlds has been something... Now their Skyrim clone Avowed is REALLY pozzed, and fuck the dev's for this game with a rusty nailbat.

(And Obsidian using NDAS to have reviewers hide any mention of the character creation screen and the fact that it has pronouns)
I never liked the idea of review copies anyways.
Also, a story I read on the steam forums from a straight white guy who was studying to be a game developer.

We regularly had industry leading individuals come over for lectures, and one of them was Guy Davidson, author of Beautiful C++, member of the C++ committee and previously head of engineering practice at Creative Assembly for decades.
He opened his speech with roughly the same words as what Matt Hansen posted recently, singling out white men in the auditorium and saying he's tired of working with other white men for decades, and wants to see more women and people of color.
Never in my life have I felt more unwelcome simply for my gender and skin color. These racist and sexist people are WAY MORE widespread than you think. Matt was simply stupid enough to say it out loud on social media.

I think the whole entire issue could easily be solved if in the West they could create a Parallel Industry. This is also the main problem I keep noticing with Western Industries as a whole that they have not adapted to yet. Expecting to wait for the collapse while a good idea, may not be for awhile. They need to ask themselvesBecause despite what Chris Avellone's suggested, even if you could win the discrimination lawsuit it's almost guarantee you will get into the industry's blacklist and the gate will be closed to you everywhere you try to find the next job. This is especially if you're just a small fry trying to make a living day to day.
