I would so do Sully.

As a gay man who enjoy videogames I have to say that Kotaku is the most open minded gaming forum that I have ever been a part of. There will always be ignorant people at every corner of the internet, the key is to find a place that isn't intolerable, which can be really hard to do...

Yeah, it's very beneficial. Since I travel to my home country a lot I have an unlocked phone so that I can just switch sim cards. Right now I have AT&T's $25 a month plan which gives me unlimited messaging and 250 minutes of talk time. They have data packages as well, unfortunately they are not very great, but unless…

If you have an unlocked phone they won't. I use my phone as a hotspot on AT&T without getting charged any extra besides my data package.

I don't know why but I am strangely aroused by this.

Then you're definitely part of the problem. You choose to be ignorant, which is way worse than just being ignorant...

Just get the WiFi version and use your smartphone as a 3G/4G hotspot instead. The prices they are asking are ridiculous anyway, $15 for 250 mb, or $25 for 2 gb...

That is literally the hours at Foxconn, 4 hours a day where you're not working. People have died working 36 hours straight at their company. The people in their factories doesn't even make enough money to buy the things they produce. It's very screwed up.

They have every responsibility to do their research to assure that their employees are treated fairly, regardless of if they hire another company to do their manufacturing for them or not. But yes, they are getting away with it in this way, but what I'm saying is that they shouldn't. And if they had fines placed on…

Getting about 28 hours a week of down time is not what I would categorize as not being 'bad' working conditions. People can throw this 'no one is forcing them to work there' argument around as much as they want, but the fact is that people have to take what they can get or they starve over there. My partner had a…

So we shouldn't put any blame on the people that use China's non-regulated ways to make a big profit? It's like saying that we shouldn't put any blame on the Americans who owned slaves but put all the blame on the Africans who sold the slaves in the first place. It's there for us to utilize, so why are we doing…

Which makes it even worse. The people who gain the biggest profit out of having slave labors have increased their wages, while the average worker can't afford what the prices actually should be on these products (and barely what the prices are with slave labor in effect).

It is one thing to be ignorant. It's another to have the information and still buying the products. That's what I'm saying. Like you're saying, everyone can't sit and google every purchase they make, however I wish more people would be doing that and see what they are actually supporting. The old saying ' ignorance is…

This.

If the government regulations comes from the company's country of origin it will work. If the U.S. government would say 'if you have workers that are under certain conditions then you will be fined/taxed more heavily' companies would have to respond. The problem is not that the products are made in China per se, there…

No one has brought up the fact that one of the reasons why companies ship their production overseas is the fact that people do not earn as much money as would be expected with the world's economy. Paychecks have not increased as would be adequate, but what has happened is that companies make cheaper products so in…

We would if we would have had the salary growth as would have been expected. But instead of people getting adequate raises, the companies just shipped their manufacturing oversees to make the products we buy cheaper so in essence no one noticed.

You're exactly on point. It is a blame to share. If you knowingly support these companies then you are part of the problem. You literally do not need a gaming console to survive in today's society, nor a smart phone, and I bet you that you can find a computer not made under these conditions after doing a little…

The saddest part about this whole thing is that there are many ways to actually manufacture things in China and do it in a Fair Trade way, and it would still be a lot cheaper than manufacturing them in the EU/US. But since big corporations need to squeeze every penny out of their products, they rather have people lose…

Good for you! Luckily I was raised in Sweden where the church does not have much influence overall, and definitely did not have any influence on me or my family. Not to say me coming out wasn't a big deal, but at least I didn't have to deal with age-old prejudice being indoctrinated into those closest to me.
