Why does Sup Forums hate gamers?

Why does Sup Forums hate gamers?

Sup Forums is a bunch of gamers that pretend not to game to appear more mature

/thread
no
/board

they're usually quite stupid and default into going for CS degrees because they have no ambitions and think their wasted childhoods on a computer screen translate to a programmer job

however, vocal anti-gamer faggots who replace video games with anime are even worse

You're loud and dumb, you love proprietary software, you're not welcome.

>MUH WINDOWS

Because telling retards to go back to Sup Forums is, while completely correct, a bit stale.
Just like we stopped telling pornposting retards to go back to Sup Forums.

Sup Forums is the Sup Forums 2.0, so we shit on gamers even though we play vidya.

Gamers have been shown to be more mentally agile than non-gamers at many things. Watch the latest season of Mind Field.

yeah nah
you're playing pretend on a computer screen with a controller
and your skills in one genre don't carry over to other games or anything outside of the context of video games

you're actually worse than anti-gamer faggots, because you spend all your free time justifying your existence and your hobbies to random people who don't give a fuck.
Nobody cares if you play games or not, most people your age have done it, it's not shameful.
People will only find it offputting if it's the ONLY thing you have to talk about.

Gamers were scientifically shown to have better spatial reasoning in RL than non-gamers... Just watch it.

If you've ever been to a CS class you'll know that gaymers are drooling retards who know shit about computers

I hate everyone that isn't like me, so gamers are included even though I game a lot.

This tbqh

Say it loud
Say it clear
Gaymers are NOT welcome here!

Gamers suck.
But gaymers

This ofc
There's a lot of overlap between here and Sup Forums, just look at all the contrarian faggots about.
See

but i don't, i just played around 5h of clone hero and now im going to shitpost on Sup Forums instead of being productiove for once

Most tech is driven by gaming so it's not surprising. Everybody I know that has a good rig got it for gaming.

Telling people to fuck off back to Sup Forums was a staple response on Sup Forums years before anyone even knew Sup Forums existed, retarded newfag red dit spilloff.

I'm the worst type of poster. I love Sup Forums and Sup Forums and have no technical expertise while dishing out advice on Sup Forums. If you want to learn programming start with assembly XD

mostly because they do nothing but shitpost about which gpu/cpu has the most frame rates in whichever dumb game suits their imbecilic agenda and have nothing else to contribute.

Gamers are incredibly stupid people who get pampered by big corporations, just because they tell you that you're intelligent and special, it doesn't it's true, they just want your greasy shekels.

>Most tech is driven by gaming
This is what gaymers actually believe.

Not everyone on Sup Forums plays video games and even though I think advances in cpu and gpu tech is cool its kinda cool, its annoying to have multiple threads (often on the exact same topic) at a time filled with mindless shilling and bickering about tech that only concerns gaymers.

well it certainly isn't for neets to fix their linux distros

I can explain this pretty well given that I have always liked the vidya.
With the right attitude, you can get a lot out of playing a video game. Optimizing Diablo runs for maximum gains is a lot like managing risk and reward for long-term investing. Playing DOOM on Ultra-Violence teaches you to be persistent and consistent; you'll never get anywhere in life if you don't fight through your failures. You can look at shmups and see geometric patterns. Then you look up the history of the development of these games and learn about programming. I always took care of school first and foremost growing up, but then it was all games for me.
I liked it all so much I went to school for game design and development. Whew boy. Holy shit, bad times.
The problem is that most "gamers" are retards who want to push all of their responsibilities away and focus on playing some pile of shit. Even tabletop fags would blow off projects to go to their "required" D&D session. People wanted to "design" when I had written the full design document, scoped for project length, and actually knew what the fuck to do.
When I graduated, I went into a normal programming job. I moved into a position at a different company and people are super impressed with my work ethic all the time.
So, fine. Just give me a break here and say, "user, you're an all right game fag." Problem is, even if I contribute more than the average person, the overwhelming gamer majority consumes far more than the average person and outputs practically nothing. So, the aggregate is that gamers don't do shit for anyone, especially not Sup Forums. In this way the hate is pretty well justified.

people on Sup Forums are more concerned with ricing their distro and bolstering their anime and hentai collection

Yeah you're right, computers are only used for video games and unemployed ricers.

Sup Forums pretending they don't play the best game

>Wants to tell me who is and isn't intelligent
>it doesn't it's true

Ok tiger, why don't you drink your milky and go have a nap now

What's this?

Way too many gamers go into computer science because they wanna make games and don't actually give a shit about computers or math.

Not the pic poster, but this is Tux Racer or one of its forks.

Okay, now show us what else they are shown to have.

A strong love for traps.

Everyone here is on a different phase of a cycle. Generally it goes like this: up to 17-18: games are still fun but you start feeling like things are getting stale; Around that age (maybe a few years earlier/later) you learn programming. At around age 19-21 is when games aren't really that fun anymore and you struggle to find something worthwhile, you still play from time to time. Eventually you get a job and realize programming is not that exciting anymore and really just fall into a midlife crisis again.

>source: an ENTIRE FUCKING SEASON
Bitch please.

>Sup Forums is a bunch of gamers that pretend not to game to appear more mature

Too bad Sup Forums types seem to have a vested interest in keeping gaming stigmatized that way to "keep the normies out."

>learn programming at 17-18
If you're a good for nothing gamer when programming is your last resort to getting a job (hint: you'll most likely end up as a support). Meanwhile true CS autists learned programming at 7 while trying to build a robot with an ATmega8L-8P and a breadboard, having to having to reverse-engineer the programmer (try finding the sheets for those fuckers online back in 2004) because commercial ones were too expensive, moved on to math after growing dissatisfied with programming, then finally after tackling KK-Fredholm operators on symplectic manifolds, going back to CS and simple type theory. By the time they were 12, they have already been through the crisis an average gamer-gone-programmer goes through in his 30s.
Pleb gamers going into CS "because i wasted my life on computer so i must be good with them" are the worst kind of vomit. Luckily enough, most of them drop out in first two semesters and go into fields more suited to them like gender studies instead. The few that last through undergrad end up as gears of the machine, slaving away for average salary and getting depressed in their 30s because they wasted their life and didn't do anything meaningful. Meanwhile autism overlords can die knowing they pushed the human knowledge thanks to their relentless effort.

>most of them drop out in first two semesters
youre too optimistic... more than half of everyone who goes into CS at my uni drop after 1 or 2 weeks
on second year, only 1/4 is left

>pushed the human knowledge thanks to their relentless effort.
Roundabout way of saying they slaved away so that management could make the big bucks. These MBAs really have you convinced that you're a 10x rockstar coder lol

>managers
>at academia
You need to go back. Wouldn't enter industry even if i didn't get any money from grants.

fucking retarded manchild gamers. grow up and watch some anime

>Tfw dont give a shit about math but like computers
i'm going to graduate with a 2.7 gpa in CS because i suck at math

Academia? Oh boy can't wait to be a postdoc making 40k. Replace managers with professors and it's the same shit for less pay. If you are smart/lucky enough to get a tenure track position then great, but most people who stay in academia won't fair very well.

...

>40k
That's scholarship, then there's grants. Oh and in my field, it's common to sell the tools developed during research to companies. Sure, most of that money goes to the faculty, but the team still gets considerable amount of it. Summa summarum i'm getting more money than i can reasonably spend, even if it's unstable income i have enough saved up to not have to worry about it.
Comparing with my former dorm mates, i'm pretty well-off and they certainly didn't waste their education. This is field-specific to certain degree though, there are fields within CS that you won't get much more than scholarship in.
>replace managers with professors
Yeah no. Professors treat you as peers, not as subordinates unless you majorly screw up. The slaving meme comes from sub-par institutions with professors so shitty that they have to put their names on dozens of papers to not fall into irrelevancy.
>most people who stay in academia won't fair very well
Depends on your metric. Sure you won't make as much money as in rentec, but you'll be doing whatever you want and get paid for it, on top of being able to claim you pushed the human knowledge.
>tenure
It's mostly about who you know these days (though you can't be completely incompetent). You can still make a good living without tenure, but it's unstable.

Are you in ML? This is very different than my experience and those of my peers.

kys
u fucking manchild,Sup Forumstard,weebs

>math

Formal verification. Colleague in bioinformatics says it's the same for her. It might have to do with the institution we're on though (not going to dox myself, but France).

I don't know about anyone else, but I fucking hate gamers because they make VIDEO GAMES their entire fucking identity as a person.
Then you have spillover from Sup Forums come on Sup Forums asking us to build their gaming shit rigs and then bringing their CONSOLE WAR shit over here.

You know that stupid tribalist shit where you would arduously defend your choice of console on the playground because your mom wouldn't buy you all 3?
Imagine this applied to CPUs and GPU manufacturers, because they're the only analog to "console wars" that Sup Forums has.
Have you ever been on Sup Forums?
Go look at those cancerous WHIIIIRRRRRRRR pics and red wojak image macros with the console hats.
Tell me that looks nothing like the intel vs AMD shit we get here 20 times a day.

I got a CS degree and I love my job with enough time to enjoy all the vidya I want

Doesn't matter if they sit around playing gaymes and jerking off about how much 'potential' they have while not accomplishing anything.

Faggot

Children and gaymers.

Curs of the planet.

new pasta

yeah bro gamers all the way xDDDD troll the haters dude I bet they have poor hand eye coordination unlike us
