Mithent: I'm more lamenting that people often think they're saying something positive, but don't realise it's actually hurtful.

There's one guy on the Goon art discord (which you and gingy should still join) that is extremely good at just copying photo references.
22:29:42
shinmera
He's clearly very talented, but it's not something I would want to do for hours and hours like hed oes.

Mithent: to expand on the response thing, people respond to stuff they relate to. So if they already know it in some fashion, it's more likely they'll instinctively take to it. That's why realistic paintings are more impressive, why fan art is more popular, etc. It takes mental effort to appreciate weirder things or new characters.

shinmera: Yeah, that seems fair. I wouldn't say that your regular style is "weird", exactly? But it's true that it's more difficult to get attention if it's not hitting something that's not familiar to a wide variety of people already

Mithent: it's possible she got some rotten food elsewhere and has an upset stomach because of that, so is hiding now

You know Robespierre? In my dream my aunt had dedicated him a small toilet. She was quite excited about it.

PincerAttack: yeah but big enough of a thing for an isp to sell gear to random people

PincerAttack
In Eternia, how do I stop making the buttons focused after saving or opening a menu?
7:39:17
gingerale
The ISP has a store for all sorts of things like phones, computers, gaming equipment, and IoT stuff.

shinmera
PincerAttack: what do you mean? Do all buttons stay highlighted or only the last one you hovered over?
7:40:59
PincerAttack
Since I use enter to go through the text this prevents me from using anything but the mouse

PincerAttack
But now I see minimizing the window makes all the graphics except for the background disappear

Though I suppose I might as well have it early. I'll get to heating it in five or ten minutes.

Pincers steam review: "buttons didn't work, there were typos, but it was a video game I guess"
9:07:12
shinmera
I mean, positive reviews are better for me of course, but I don't actually want to influence what you write.
9:12:10
PincerAttack
One last thing I noticed is there are a few errors with who is supposed to be talking

Finally heating that meal. I thought I'd connect my new short HDMI cables to the splitter and the HDMI switch. Turns out that the switch just doesn't work. And Nintendo Switch doesn't like HDMI cables with a thick part along them, as these for some reason have on both ends.
9:22:14
gingerale
Got the splitter set up and to work at least for the future. Now I'll be able to stream Splat for you and you'll get to see how bad I am.

PincerAttack
I spend two sentences saying how nice it is and then immediately switch to talking about the flaws

Well, it depends on how technical you want to get. Typical essay style is "overview, argument, counterargument, conclusien".
10:08:10
shinmera
there's lots of ways to make a review. if you really want to get into the technicality of it you'd have to look into what others do and see if you find review styles you like and all then replicate that.
10:24:35
shinmera
It doesn't read as a diss to me, more like "oh yeah you definitely get something good for that dollar!"
