Whereas on Reddit, it'd be used to justify a slippery slope. "We've already banned X and Y, so banning Z is just an extension of that."

I used to watch The Wan Show which I guess is more of an unfiltered look than the edited videos. But yeah, kinda.
There were numerous times when he'd openly criticise a colleague, or just like... undermine them? And then realise he was looking like an asshole and awkwardly laugh to try to pass it off as a joke.

It's very clear once you've watched a few episodes of The Wan Show that he's basically a massive asshole and a liability, surrounded by people desperately trying to rein him in.
Particularly more recently, I think? Like, I eventually stopped watching because the first 40 minutes of every episode was Linus trying to defend himself for the latest bullshit thing he'd done. π

It's unsurprisingly one of those "can't say much about it without ruining it" games, but suffice to say:
It was very good and you should play it, but it was always going to be difficult for it to top the first one because you go into it having a fairly good idea of what's going on.
Also I just think this genre maybe works better with teenage characters than grown-ups, but that's just me. π

There was (maybe still is) a cake shop in Southgate, North London. About a minute from my old flat.
The cakes in the window display rarely changed, if ever.
The guy running it looked like if you imagine the toughest prisoner at a prison, only wearing an apron.
About 50/50 whether the glass would be smashed whenever you walked past.
It was often "open" and had people coming in and out of it at 2-3am when I came back from nights out.
And there was a drive-by shooting right in that area while I lived there, that I always assumed was related. π

In the smouldering aftermath, some politicians, keen to shift the focus from social inequality, have muttered darkly about the role of BlackBerry Messenger, Twitter and Facebook β frightening new technologies that, like the pen and the human mouth, allow citizens to swap messages with one another. Some have even called for the likes of Twitter to be temporarily suspended in times of great national crisis. Thatβd be reassuring β like the scene at the start of a zombie movie where the news bulletin is suddenly replaced by a whistling tone and a stark caption reading PLEASE STAND BY. The last thing we need in an emergency is the ability to share information.

The sad thing is, they had enough vertical "pixels" to make a proper "F". π€¦ββοΈ If they were worried it didn't look lowercase enough, just remove the top-left "pixel".
Of course what they really need is for someone to shake them and yell "IT'S 2023, ENOUGH WITH THE FAKE DOT-MATRIX DISPLAY BULLSHIT", but what can you do.

It's funny, because that was the obvious solution from the start.
"Third-party apps don't sell our Awards or include any of the NFT/Vault stuff^1^, and we're not making money. So from June 30th we'll only be allowing Reddit Premium subscribers to use third-party apps. The official Reddit app will continue to be free for everyone."
I honestly think people would've understood.
But if they announced it now, it'd just make people even angrier. π

I downloaded this right after the Capcom Showcase last night.
Easily one of my top ten games ever. It's a treat seeing it in HD, at 60fps. And the new soundtrack is amazing so far.
It's very Capcom to have left it in 4:3, though... π
