  @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.

  Buddy thinks we stopped getting married and reproducing bc of candy crush and not bc of a system that encourages 20 year olds to enter the working world with 6 figure debt in this real estate market. And people vote for this

  @thomaslhorrocks His “Candy Crush” meant being online and disconnected. Explain people not dating, social issues, depression. When isolated, don’t have children.

  @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.

  @not__vee To be fair cowgirls exist. 🐮 Games can be hobby for both males and females. That's fine. Problem is trying to make all the games for both. That doesn't work because women want to play dress-up games and candy crush, while men want to crush enemies and have a cute Khajiit wife.

  Just got out of Backrooms. Was mostly children actually, but the issues came from the parents in this one! One mother was playing Candy Crush the entire time! I asked her nicely to put it away twice and she yelled at me both times. She then caused a scene when somebody else asked

  @soupybabee @naheshas but the problem isn’t mobile gaming? nobody ever talks about that and you know it you’re just being dishonest, mobile gaming is an outlier and is only big because phones are a requirement in our lives trying to include candy crush moms into conversation about gaming is insane

  @BriansBeacon @60Minutes You also have to ask people why they're not having their second or third child or whatever. In my case it was fertility issues plus health issues plus finances that made us stop at one. Oh and Candy Crush obviously.

  @DouthatNYT Candy Crush is not the issue with the birthrate. It is job related though. If we traded salaries for a year, traded work hours even, I’d have five kids too!

  @Kc1o5 And there are things I don't understand, like suddenly raising the price of Game Pass or buying things like Candy Crush...who wants to play Candy Crush besides mothers and aunts? Oh well, hopefully the new CEO can fix what they've caused these last few months

  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

  @adjsjdnskn @60Minutes Birth rates have been declining for over a hundred years. You are correct and my earlier post was wrong to say they started to crash in 1960... but my main point was it clearly wasn't caused by smartphones and candy crush which are relatively recent.

  @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

  This is, of course, totally in bad faith but if you extrapolate "ban candy crush" to what Sasse actually means, I would take the "ban candy crush" side as the heavy favorite. There is no amount of money or accommodation that will restore fertility. Yet another problem that we have tried and failed to GDP ourselves out of.

  @Hunterrowell61 @60Minutes @BenSasse I agree with this as well - I think it’s a multifaceted issue and trying to boil it down in a character limited space is a disservice to the discussion. I just refuse to be insulted by the argument of Mr. Candy Crush

  1. The Start Menu Ad Board Situation: You open the Start Menu to launch your core tools, expecting a clean grid of your installed software. Instead, half your visual field is polluted with "Pinned" apps like TikTok, Instagram, and Candy Crush. You assume these are pre-installed programs taking up valuable disk space, but they are actually just paid corporate advertisements waiting for a misclick to trigger a background download. System: Right-click and unpin every single piece of corporate bloatware immediately. Do not leave a single one. Then, go to Settings > Personalization > Start and aggressively turn off "Show recommendations for tips, shortcuts, new apps, and more". Why it works: You reclaim your visual real estate and cognitive load. The Start Menu goes back to being a pure, functional launcher that obeys your commands, not a digital strip mall designed to steal your attention before you even begin working.

  @kananaskinyeti they also have no problem with the vampire capitalists rigging everything online with casino addiction marketing, all those candy crush games of sparkle and jingle made to psychologically snare them in a dopamine loop to suck money out of them.

  @LateNightCandi_ 20-30% And im not including women who play mobile games like candy crush. Talking about real games. And I would actually agree except the last about 3-4 years has seen a massive industry wide push in high profile games and studios that feels 100% forced New ips, no issue

  The new boss of Xbox took one of its biggest games and put it on PlayStation, the console its arch-rival sells. It sounds like a mistake. Instead, it became the best-selling new game on PlayStation last year and has passed 5 million copies, beating Sony's own new games. That single move tells you what Asha Sharma is really doing. She took over Xbox in February 2026, after Phil Spencer, who had run it for years, retired. At Bloomberg's tech conference this week, an interviewer asked what winning would look like by 2030. Her answer was blunt: the number one gaming and entertainment company in the world. Xbox is not there yet. She even called the business "not in a healthy spot," with sales falling in four of the last six quarters. So she stopped trying to win the old fight. For decades, consoles worked one way: you keep your best games locked to your own machine, so people have to buy it to play them. Sony does this better than anyone, selling close to three PlayStations for every Xbox. Sharma looked at those odds and walked away. Now she sells Xbox's games to the people who already bought a PlayStation, and last year Forza, Doom, Indiana Jones, and a stack of others showed up on Sony's console. A 70 dollar game brings in the same 70 dollars no matter whose machine you play it on. The bigger prize is reach. A few years back, Microsoft paid 75.4 billion dollars for the company behind Call of Duty and Candy Crush, the most expensive deal gaming has ever seen. Candy Crush alone has more than 200 million players a month, most of them on their phones, not on an Xbox. Count every phone, PC, console, and TV, and a Microsoft game now reaches over 500 million people a month. Sony's online network reaches 132 million. Her other moves point the same way. She cut the price of Game Pass, the monthly games subscription that works like Netflix, after admitting last year's price jump had chased people off. Sign-ups started climbing again. She scrapped an Xbox AI assistant because players did not want it and it solved no real problem. And she revealed the next Xbox, a machine built to play both Xbox games and PC games. None of this is a sure thing. The chips Xbox needs keep getting pricier instead of cheaper, because the AI boom is buying them up, and Sony still crushes Xbox on console sales. What Sharma has done is change the scoreboard. She is racing to reach the most players on every device that exists, and by that count, Xbox already sits near the top.
