  @GrageDustin Genuinely curious to hear how this is the result of a staffing problem? Do we want an officer on every street corner playing candy crush most of the time? We do need more staffing for other purposes but IMO if the force was at full capacity it's not going to stop these incidents.

  @balatroist @KevinCastley @grok When you don’t have an argument. You either strawman or just hurl insults. You haven’t made a single coherent rebuttal . Other than Oh Yeah what about xxxxx. In lieu actually addressing the issue. This isn’t your strong suit. Maybe find something else to do. Try midget porn maybe or candy crush. I hear that’s popular.

  @Anaya_sharma876 Crash... shove ads down my throat... try to force me to use Bing and Edge at every chance. I really wish Linux did a better job of showing me ads for Candy Crush and a search engine that has only gotten worse lately... Linux needs to master how to SUCK LESS

  @mattsheehan92 @kenklippenstein He using candy crush as an example. Thats many in his generation example of phone addiction. He doesn’t mean literally just candy crush is the cause of problems. Use some critical thinking

  A high-school dropout coded a game after work each night. Microsoft paid $2,500,000,000 in cash for it. Edsbyn, Sweden. Markus Persson grows up in a house coming apart. His father cycles through alcohol, amphetamines, and jail for robberies. His parents split when he is 12. His younger sister runs away into drugs. He fakes stomachaches to skip school and sit at the family Commodore for hours. By 8 he is writing code. He never finishes high school. His mother, a nurse working the graveyard shift, forces him into an online programming course. That course becomes the whole career. 2004: he lands a job at a Stockholm game studio, the outfit that later builds Candy Crush. He keeps a paycheck by day and tinkers on his own worlds at night. 2009: he starts a blocky side project on indie forums and calls it Minecraft. He built the first version in about a week. It spread by word of mouth with no marketing. By 2014: 15,000,000 copies sold across consoles and PC. The pressure of being the sole god of a phenomenon wears him down. September 2014: Microsoft buys his studio Mojang for $2,500,000,000 in cash. His 71% stake makes him a billionaire overnight and lands him on the Forbes list. The audit: Minecraft passed 300,000,000 copies, the best-selling game in history. The 2025 movie grossed over $950,000,000. Forbes marks Persson near $1,300,000,000 today. His father went to jail. The dropout son built the best-selling game ever made.

  @sleepy_devo Leave it to a retarded lib to completely miss the point. He's saying if you spent your time more wisely, you would be able afford kids. It's a prioritization issue. If candy crush is that important to you, we really don't want you having kids anyways.

  Meta charges you up to 4x more per impression on Audience Network placements that convert at near-zero And the toggle to turn them off is buried 3 menus deep in ad set settings When you launch a Meta ad it runs on 4 placements by default: Facebook Feed, Instagram Feed, Stories/Reels, and Audience Network. You probably know about the first 3. The 4th is where Meta sends your ad to random apps and websites to fill cheap inventory Audience Network CPMs are cheap. $1-3. That looks good in your dashboard. The problem: conversion rates on Audience Network are near-zero for ecom because the "viewer" is playing a mobile game and your ad is a banner they accidentally tapped trying to close it. The click was accidental. She didn't want your product. She wanted to get back to Candy Crush Your ad dashboard shows a blended CPM across all placements. The $6 CPM you see is actually $14 on Facebook Feed (where people buy) and $2 on Audience Network (where nobody buys). Meta blends them to make the number look good. Your real cost to reach a buyer is $14. You think it's $6 The fix: - go to ad set level - click "Placements" - switch from "Advantage+ Placements" to "Manual Placements" - uncheck "Audience Network" entirely - while you're there uncheck "Messenger" too (same problem, different placement) Your CPM will "increase" on the dashboard because you removed the cheap garbage placements. Your cost per PURCHASE will decrease because every impression now goes to a placement where people actually buy things One operator turned off Audience Network and Messenger. Dashboard CPM went from $8 to $13. Cost per purchase went from $22 to $14. He was paying $22 per customer while Meta showed him an $8 CPM that included thousands of accidental taps from people playing mobile games Meta defaults to all placements because Meta gets paid per impression regardless of whether it converts. The more placements your ad runs on the more impressions Meta sells. Their incentive is volume. Your incentive is conversions. These are different goals. The default setting serves their goal not yours 3 clicks deep in your ad settings. 2 minutes. Your cost per purchase drops and your dashboard finally shows real numbers instead of blended fiction

  Do you know the casual candy crush **** they want you to play to entertain 1 billion people? Get ready.. because they're gutting their studios of creatives and pushing AI to make their games hard. Being human is a problem at XBOX.

  LA metro discourse triggers psychosis. It’s not good. It’s slow, it goes halfway to nowhere, and there’s always someone in distress while cops play candy crush.

  @Cyberdost Let me tell you the reality. I have visited cyber cell for atleast 20 times and I have never seen your officers working. They are either watching reels, playing candy crush or having chit chat with colleagues over cup of tea.

  An anon post rexosted by BAP and other anons just got taken down for “violating the rules” when it was calling Ben Sasse totally out of touch for saying “candy crush is the problem” ending with “kill yourself” It wasn’t even his account, it was a 60 minutes clip, we can’t even use edgy quips to express frustration anymore New regime same as old regime (except the new ones rules are arbitrary)

  @The_Epic_Mike they really think candy crush and farmville makes them gamers the problem is that the development companies believe this too they think they can convert the candy crush crowd to AAA games, which is just pure insanity I know zero women who own a PS5 or Xbox, zero, none

  @SarcasmStardust If Candy Crush was the only thing stopping me from having kids I would’ve had one 15 years ago. I haven’t played it at all since then, nor any of its cousins. I don’t play any mobile games & rarely console games. Too busy working.

  Low TFR is a problem, but Candy crush is red herring here. Real problem is expensive housing. Need real incentives like 33% off taxes for every child under 18

  @IdleSloth84_ Honestly, it seems that management over Xbox Studios and Bethesda was the main issue. For sure some employee redundancy led to layoffs, but I don't know if Xbox would be better or worse w/o ABK. At least, CoD before BO7, Warzone and Candy Crush probably brought some money.

  @SkippyPetro It’s a reasonably good extension of the point though. Candy Crush is good for example of the inherent problem of making men superfluous for female existence. Women don’t like men that much anymore as men don’t have as much to offer as society, both in comfort and entertainment.

  @Roo_VT See, the problem there is that mobile games skew the statistics and candy crush isn't exactly what people are talking about when they talk about video games.

  lol they live bringing in some random, “hip” item that only shows how out of touch they are - avocado toast & candy crush are to blame for all our problems
