A confirmation dialog is a tool to ensure users are aware of an action’s destructive consequences. When an action has none—or is easily reversed—a confirmation dialog is pointless.
This seems obvious, and yet there are so many “Are you sure? There will be no consequences” dialogs in games.

been trying out chaos zero nightmare after the pitch of “slay the spire + gacha” cut through the endless noise of extremely polished high-budget new gacha games, but this game’s character gender ratio is absurd
there’s only like 3 male characters, and 2 of them are named Luke & Lucas???

was pretty disappointed when I realized a book I’d seen widely described as incredibly dense and academic was just a novel (with a very casual YA tone) that happened to be set in college. only a tiny bit horrified by what this means for how we as a whole discuss “difficult” media.

recently watched a video from a creator I used to follow which, among other things, talked about how difficult it was going from being a gacha-game-specific creator to a general variety streamer
thinking about that made me realize why I just can’t get myself to care about streaming as a whole

I think one big thing that this misses is that there IS actually one big pro-consumer argument for standardizing subtitles over bespoke text hard-encoded into video files: allowing the user to customize size & style to their liking

the irony of spreading early leaks for series that have extremely affordable(/free) and accessible simulpubs being the one form of manga piracy I find absolutely morally despicable and that being the only form of manga piracy I actually see on an extremely regular basis

Part of me worries because I’m not really familiar with anything else he’s done series composition for (www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia...), but also Savers/Data Squad is probably my favorite Digimon series so this gives me lots of hope
Yamaguchi Ryota will be in charge of the series composition for Digimon Beatbreak. He previously served the same role for Digimon Savers, in addition to being its screenwriter.

there’s a new round of manga piracy discourse, and the new take this time seems to be that tension between official industry folks and scanlators is silly when they both face the same existential threat of being replaced by AI localization. 🤔

I've realized recently that my love of HGTV stems from the same core storytelling principles as any shonen battle series. a beautiful, affordable house with a pool and a gorgeous lake in walking distance? that’s a Chosen One narrative.
