The Star Citizen thread is paying off big time. An employee shared screenshots that had a direct link to 48 gigs of assets.. Top security http://www.businessinsider.com.au/star-citizen-disco-lando-file-leak-2015-5 Best part is that there is no sign of any of the cash cow ships these idiots have paid tens of thousands of dollars for. GeurillaWAR posted:This is exactly it... Where are the ships that have been paid for? I find it interesting that in this leak, NOTHING that has been purchased, was revealed. So, does that mean they have done absolutely NOTHING on the Banu MM, the Cat, etc..? Drink the tears dear friends, drink the tears

when the first hour is completed, that's 1 o'clock. when the second hour is completed, that's 2 o'clock. when only half the second hour is completed ("half two"), that's 1:30. so the british who think that half two means 2:30 are objectively wrong and dumb

I remember a PYF thread about English regionalisms that was pro as gently caress. It coincidentally also was about other stuff than sperging about how you speak time in your home village of Dumbfuck, Wyoming.

Trabant posted:maybe, but in doing so they also wasted the opportunity to be leader in sensors and related tech. that would've been such a better alternative than what ended up happening to them in the last 20 years but they'd have had to start from zero in a market they had literally no experience in - it's hard to criticise them for not suddenly becoming a consumer electronics company overnight, and by the time it became obvous film's days were numbered it was way too late to do anything but try to transition the stuff they were good at to the new market it's not like agfa are doing any better, they're reduced to a bunch of specialised fields now, and fujifilm are pretty much just a licensing house for their name these days (and of course polaroid, the ones with most to lose from digital, are literally just a brand and nothing else now) e: not like kodak didn't do a whole bunch of really stupid poo poo:
