Coming soon to PC, the classic remastered in HD.. Irrational|Bioshock 2*
Because of so many eyes on the project, he's almost obligated to hold some sort of charitable event. The mere mentioning of charity soothes many naysayers. But who's the say these charities are handled correctly? This isn't necessarily clean cut act of altruism.
I think what Kickstarter should do is make a program/algorithm where as soon as the goal is met, the thing stops instantly regardless of how many days are left. If the kickstarter asks for $10, it stops at $10 if it's met or goes over even by a penny. Any further pledges that didn't trigger the stop-order are voided…
This isn't about this case in particular but I always find it funny when bloggers and alike are talking about having to "pay webhosting" while actual hosting of a website is no more than around 20 bucks A YEAR. But most people don't know (same as with podcast donations) apparently.
My blog project Kickstarter which was for legitimate resources that I needed to keep up the blog was turned away from Kickstarter because it "doesn't conclude in a finished product," yet a Kickstarter for potato salad is allowed to gather $55k in funds. What in the actual...
I think it came out to $8 per person. Next time those people have $8 and are thinking about throwing it into the abyss for shits and gigs, maybe they should wander over to the Red Cross or Doctors Without Borders and hand it to them.
It's great that some of this cash will actually feed someone who needs it, but isn't it weird that for U.S. peeps the equation goes "Guy who doesn't need food or economic aid: THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS" and then "let's feed that, uh, what are they called? Oh, yeah, homeless people." It's like U.S. tax breaks in a…
This dude can go fuck himself. There are a hell of a lot of people that need that $55,000 more than his potato salad does. People in real need, with student loans and medical bills, homeless people starving in the streets. I hope someone backed it just for the chance to come kick his ass.
The only joke here is played entirely on the dignity of our species.
Because it's going to start bait-and-switch tactics on Kickstarter. He started the funding with "watch me make potato salad" then ended with a music festival. How in the world is that cool just because you're going to donate money to charity (which he also said nothing about in the beginning)?
I've lost some faith in humanity, fuck charities, fuck orphanages, fuck all the actual deserving causes, let's give this fool 55 grand to make some potato salad
OTHER BREAKING NEWS: It may not be a person's money, but they can still evaluate what disappointing idiots the people spending it are.
I hate this. I hate everything about this.
"9.7 / 10 - IGN" lol
I honestly think the next one will end up being better. I mean I like Mirror's Edge quite a bit, but it's also a game that got alot wrong, and we all know it. The combat aspect didn't work entirely, the levels could stand to be more multi-pathed, the red highlight was kind of a bandaid for levels that didn't flow…
Oh... Hai, doggy!
Makes you want to harken back to this:
The Simpsons have always been defined by the other TV sitcom families. When TV sitcom families became inexplicably loaded, so did the Simpsons.
I find a certain laziness in a lot of the decoration of period homes shown in movies now too. Everything is too homogeneous, assuming everybody instantly refurnishes their homes with the current style. Hint to the set designers, if the movie or TV show is set in the 60's or 70's, very few of the items in the house…
