the local bus system stopped putting schedules at each stop, instead each one has a qr code on it for a mobile-designed page for that stop with the next arrival time etc one of the few intelligent uses of them I've seen

it's actually not a bad idea because it means that they don't have to keep updating the signage when the schedules change, and some of the single-bus stops didn't used to have any schedules posted at all. the transfer stations still have the full printed schedules up, it's just the street stops that have the qr code thing this is what one of the links looks like, it's pretty convenient since you don't have to interpret a schedule, it just says when the next bus is due there's also a phone number you can call for people without smartphones, you enter the stop number (which is on the same sign as the qr code) and it gives you the same information

I scanned a qr code on a bus stop once and got 2 free taquitos at 711 or something it was awesome

(and it will do more for the average person than all three of those things combined) not having a smartphone, today, in 2013, is the province of the middle income family. not wealthy enough to have a smartphone forced on them by work, not poor enough to make a smartphone the essential mode of communicating with the internet

i don't know what you're trying to say exactly but it sounds pretty irrelevant to my point which was that current smartphones are actually inferior to a dumbphone the way they get used in the developing world

Hi there, This is a message from Kickstarter Support. We're writing to let you know that the process for The Fall of Nemesis: Clash of the Kaijujin's intellectual property dispute is now complete. The project is now available. You can visit the project here: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/14214732/kaiju-combat-giant-monsters-awesome-fighting-onlin?ref=email Thanks so much for your patience, Kickstarter

Dead Inside Darwin posted:Hi there, Every individual Kaiju license (Gamera, Zone Fighter, Ultraman, etc.) will require a unique license agreement with the IP holder - Sunstone Games cannot predict which Kaiju will be easier or harder to sign agreements with, and thus we cannot guarantee a specific order in which we will be producing monsters associated with each license. We will, of course, be keeping everyone up to date on the design forums! lol
