Oh they're very good controllers! The problem is that they took Nintendo's button names (ABXY) and transposed their positions. It's utter chaos, and very hard for me at least to remember that A is B and B is A.
Playstation, by contrast, came up with entirely new button symbols, so it's much less confusing that O -> A.
The APIs for gamepad interfacing are a total mess now, with some based on button names and some on position (south/east/west/north).
Xbox controller is the worst thing to happen to emulation
Kinda boring. I don't think about it. We look after each other with love and spend probably too much time together because we enjoy each other's company. But it's not the incredible harlequin drama you might think.
I respect that.

Docs and testing have no bravado, but they're important. If they're dragging you down, use your problem-solving brain and find a way to make them work for you.
You're probably right about that. It is irritating though that we've added more syllables.
I'm just grumpy because I don't like random change for no reason. I think I'm probably in the 99th percentile for how irritated I get when software or a website changes its layout. I also haven't seen any trustworthy anecdotes of people who find the term blacklist/whitelist offensive to them, but I don't really go looking either. Perhaps I should.
I think people should be concerned about things on others' behalfs. We all need to stick together.
This situation is a send-up though. Totally not a concern.
I don't respect the way IP is abused by large companies. I support short-term IP as I think it does help individuals in a net-positive way for everyone.
I could be convinced that short-term IP is bad too, but regardless I think long-term is the the big problem. Games from the 80s should all be public domain by now.
just draw the accidental all squiggly.
Evil forces of darkness and good forces of light is engrained into our cultural DNA. Night=dangerous, day=safe is just something you have to learn early as a woman, it is a fact of society and we can't pretend it isn't.
Dark lord, black rider, white knight... why focus on whitelist/blacklist specifically?
