My PC's power supply broke so I bought a new one at Best Buy, then put the broken one back in the box and returned it.

This is one of those silly evil things that I do regret having done, mainly because it was so stupid.

Wow, I never knew about these guys! That's nuts!

I'd say Jubilee was the offspring of Alison Blaire and Tabitha Smith, from a creative standpoint (Tabitha and Jubilee are way more similar than Dazzler is to either of them, though)

Hey all, I'm the guy who directed the video. I probably could've been more clear about it, but the video was never meant to be set in the 80's, just 80's styled. Given the similarities between current styles and 1980's style (though we're seeing the 90's move in already), I didn't think it would be as big of a leap...

OneDrive still has a 2gb file size limit, which makes it nearly impossible to use up all that free space anyway. I'll pass.

Doctor Manhattan and Magneto, respectively.

A main thing to take away from this is to ask questions to which answers would be a material fact. Material facts and misstatements of such can be used as evidence should you need to take the person to small claim's court.

I'd prefer a subtitled version if only I wasn't strapped for personal time that I can devote to paying attention on screen 100% of the time. As it is a 25 episode series is too much of a time commitment without allowing me to check my phone, do some light work while it's in the background, etc.

*teaching a child to read. Stupid tablet.

Ding ding ding you just pointed out the one true benefit to kickstarter, and why kickstarter is more like a donation than an investment. I mean it's an investment in the poetic way, like teaching a child to red is an investment in their future. If that makes you feel good doing it, by all means do it. I'd do it more

it's actually not at all like stock or company investments. in a stock or company investment they have an obligation to maintain and grow your investment, and generally at any point you should be able to sell your share for the current market value of the stock. During which time you technically own a piece of the

Then those people who think putting 25 dollars into a project that MAY end up getting finished in 2 years when they could just as well wait to buy the product in 2 years for the same amount if and when it's released clearly don't understand the value of their own money.

I get wanting "day of" or even "before everyone else" and paying a premium for that. But is that worth taking the huge gamble that the product will come out at all. I'm not even a fan of preorders, and this is worse than a preorder. Plus with a preorder you're still only paying the value of the product (60 dollars for

oh and by the way a savings account is insured by the FDIC, so unless you're betting on the government collapsing (which hey, it's not impossible), you are getting a guarantee that you won't lose money in it. Meanwhile the savings account also guarantees you get SOME dividends on it, which is basically a guaranteed

Yes, but with kickstarter it's pretty much a guarantee that you WON'T get your money back. Only a small percentage of donor perks actually match or exceed what you paid for it Basically that's if they offer a perk where you get the product for the price that they'll be selling it for; for almost every other perk,

Except your ROI that's a physical product is also almost certainly of lesser value than the release price of the product. Especially when you consider people who donate below the amount needed for them to get the product (just to get a "special thanks" or a t-shirt or something). And that's with a product that stands

When you donate to PBS they give you a tote bag. They still know to call it a donation. Most kickstarter perks have a value less than what you actually give, and only an idiot would "invest" in something that's pretty much guaranteed to return less than what you paid.

I think most perks on kickstarter are below the market value for what it is you "invested" into it. When I pay 50 dollars to get a t-shirt and a digital download of a game that'll sell for 10 dollars, that's not investing. Hell, if I pay 50 dollars and get a copy of a game that retails for 50 dollars, that's not
