Unpopular opinion time (super alpha no pony edition)

I think Weezer is an awful band, their music sounds like studio outtakes passing off as finished music and I really don’t like Rivers Cuomo’s sneering delivery which makes him sound like a smug asshole.

Mordecai’s reaction to this news

Tbf I only watched it years after tge hype/relevancy but yeah, this show did nothing for me

Didn’t like a majority of the cast (Wendy, Stan and Ford were the only ones I liked), abd the story itself wasn’t gripping me

Also doesn’t help that this show got hyped up by the Internet as some sort of “second coming” of kids cartoons

@Cosmas-the-Explorer
This is coming from the same bird who thinks some EDM notes sounds better than a happy sunshine pop song so no love lost

Jax and Daxter 1 never really interested me. I guess I saw it as too corny. I think I prefer games with some level of edge or coolness not too much though.
Maybe Jax 2 would be more style. (Also poor Daxter doesn’t even appear in the title.)

@Mr.Myoozik
What do you expect from a hipster?

Streaming services don’t kill people.

@Hollowfox, Always The Worst Person
…That isn’t a joke though. And Disney was/is using that to justify not being responsible for what happened on their soil. Don’t bat for corporations, since they only care about you giving them every penny you own.

@Meanlucario
Let’s not start again.

Also, if it’s not a joke, why in the world would they act like streaming kills people because of that?

Aside from that, there are no other news about Netflix killing people or Hulu or Amazon Prime.

@Hollowfox, Always The Worst Person
The joke is that corporations are putting in their ToS that they can legally kill you as long as you sign up to it, which is what Disney is trying to do in a sense.

@Meanlucario
Aside from that, how can they kill a person with their terms of service?

With what poison?

Is there a hitman hired by a corporation who can track someone who created that account?

Is a VR app pulling a Sword Art Online?

I don’t wanna laugh at a cruel joke that I can’t find it funny, I’m sorry.

@Hollowfox, Always The Worst Person
Again, the joke isn’t that the ToS doesn’t kills you, it’s the it enables the corporation to legal kill you base on Disney’s logic.

@Meanlucario
This. Fuck Disney.

@Hollowfox, Always The Worst Person
No one is saying streaming services kill people. They’re saying Disney kills people.

Okay, let’s deviate and say this:

I like Pancakes and waffles, but CooleeBravo’s tweet that everyone loves to shove down people’s throats is ruining it for me because instead of answering a question, they use it against them just because they asked and was shown as “misinterpreting” it.

It’s annoying.

The tweet in question:

Because by agreeing to the ToS Disney argues/argued (don’t know the state of the case) that the customer entered an agreement with them, the company to enter into an arbitration agreement. Arbitration being you enter into a strictly private, closed door process to settle damages done to you, the customer from the company that is not open to public legal discovery for the purpose of criminal or even civil cases. For example: you can not enter a class-action lawsuit against Disney for damages you and others have suffered from Disney, because to get Disney streaming - or any other streaming - you agreed to never take them to court, but to negotiate damages with them 1 on 1 in a private setting. A setting which is always advantageous to the company because it would break the ToS and run you into any clauses seeking penalties vs you for entering the agreement.

And so: Disney decided to extended Disney+ Terms of Services to all Disney services including the parks because either it was written into the ToS in fine print or the language used was for Disney the Company as a whole and not in part (streaming).

IF the case has been presented to you as being “Disney+ directly killed a person” then you’re incorrect, or the source of that information is wildly incorrect and misrepresenting the case as-it-is and you’re not even approaching this for the correct narrative. No one has ever said streaming has killed a person, in any publication. Rather: the Terms of Services someone has entered into a company has or is being argued to prevent a person for seeking damages from the Company for something they did disconnected from the Streaming Platform.

Kind of like how if you didn’t email Discord’s arbitration team a couple months back to quit their arbitration agreement in their new Terms of Service you can’t sue them in public court with other people anymore for when they “woopsie, we leaked all ur information again :3”, and you have to enter into a private 1 on 1 arbitration settlement with them and get like, fifty bucks. That’s what Disney is trying to do and what any similar case is or will try to do

@AaronMk
Oh.

I still don’t find the joke funny, but I guess that makes sense. In a very concerning way.

Am I the only one who doesn’t hate the MHA ending? People are treating it so nihilisticly but Deku still has a future. Who knows what may lie for him in the future

@Cosmas-the-Explorer
Absolutely nothing 😏

England needs to bring back the imperial system of measurement!

Soulless precision vs cozy measurements your great grandpa used. Which do you choose?

@Background Pony #967B
As someone who uses imperial, the “soulless precision.”

@Background Pony #967B
Me who’s been using metric system since I was born: I don’t care. I hate math.

@Background Pony #967B
Souless precision anyday. But in fairness we still use imperial for a lot of stuff, highway code is all imp, bodyweight and height often still measured in stone and ft-in, some materials are still sold by the foot.

@�
D&D uses feets is another example.

@Background Pony #967B
Most of the world uses metric for a reason. It’s objectively better. Also, why does it even matter, it’s a goddamn measurement system?

Why do you want numbers to have soul anyway?
