Yeah, well put. The only reason the devs are "screwed" in this scenario is that they abandoned their Greenlight campaign. Which is either on them for being foolish, or on Adult Swim for misleading them, or a bit of both.

It sounds like the only reason Code Avarice is "screwed" is that they abandoned their Greenlight campaign for months, and it sounds like the only reason they did THAT was because Adult Swim promised them it could get them on Steam. I don't see how any of that is Valve's fault. Sounds like the devs deserve at least…

Meagan, cereal is a family food, happy monoracial families. Maybe biracial people eat cereal, we don't know. Frankly, we don't want to know. It's a market we can do without.

Man, all this "he should be flattered" bullshit.

If you've got the money, it looks like a neat toy. But i'm not inclined to install a gadget on my bike that cost more than the entire rest of the bike itself.

Unbelievable! You, [Cosplayer Name Here], must be the pride of [Cosplayer Hometown Here].

It's a cool prize for the dude, but is it a cool prize for the players of Godus? Will it be fun having this random guy deciding the rules of the game? That's what remains to be seen.

I really don't like the heavily-armored Batman look. Batman is essentially a ninja. He doesn't survive because bullets and blades bounce off him, he survives because he's a master tactician who strikes from the shadows and disables his targets without giving them a CHANCE to shoot or stab him. A leaner, lighter, more…

My experiences in the 3D industry have made me quite cynical about the concept of working for free. I've seen more than a few interns conned into working for free on the promise of valuable experience and portfolio material, only to spend months on drudge work that leaves them worse off than if they'd spent that time…

I personally am a big fan of the old-style aluminum folding chairs with the nylon webbing seat and backs. Super light and very comfortable. But they seem to be somewhat hard to find, these days.

Easier to spy on someone secretly with your smartphone. Maybe congress should look into that.

The only sense in which this will reduce piracy is that you probably won't see people pirating this shitty Cloud version. Because they'll all still be pirating CS6. Forever. This won't win over any new customers. But I suppose it evens out, because now all Adobe's legit customers will be paying way more in the long…

A couple hundred is pretty steep for someone in school? $20/month amounts to $240 over the course of a year. $480 for two years, and if you subscribed for four years of college the total would be $960, almost a thousand bucks...

I'm not gonna lie, every couple months I'm gripped by the extreme desire to buy a shit-ton of Lego.

Ugh, I'm so sick of everything being a subscription. So many products out there that should just be a piece of software you buy, you put it on your computer and you're done. You have it. You pay once, and if you like that piece of software enough you can use it for years.

Guy wearing Google glass, looking at his smartphone, minding his own business = "glasshole".

You know, Nyan Cat, whose body is a frikkin' POP-TART!!!

Can't the doctors or clinicians sue Live Action for defamation or something? Live Action is secretly recording them, editing the videos to make them appear guilty of criminal activity, and then distributing the videos to media organizations. Even if it isn't enough to instigate actual charges or a trial, it seems like…

Every time some random, tiny indie game makes a ton of money, it makes me hopeful that there's some way for larger developers to do business that cuts the publisher out of the loop as much as possible and lets them keep the profits for themselves, and that it will become a business model that is more and more viable.

So does the jackass principle catch any of the fallout on a personal level? Hopefully along the lines of getting fired and never working in education again?
