Get your checkbooks ready and see you in the 'rums!!!

And how much did you spend on your CIG jacket? Is it you or your parents in this income tax bracket?

And how much did you pay for your golden ticket status That proves you were there, That you crowd-funded first? How do you afford your Citizen lifestyle? How do you afford your Citizen lifestyle? How do you afford your Citizen lifestyle? Ah, tell me. How much did you pay for the mocap studio, The one he ruthlessly closed at the end of the year? And how much will he pay for a brand new studio, One which he'll ruthlessly close at the end of another year? And how long will the workers keep staffing his new ones? As long as their pubes are neat, cleaned and trimmed ones. And how long will the workers keep staffing his new ones? As long as their pubes are neat, cleaned and trimmed ones. Crashing black screens and falling through floors, Contorted limbs, and thefts by space poors. Your desktop pays dearly now for Alpha 2.0, But they'll get it stable in a decade or so. How do you afford your Citizen lifestyle? How do you afford your Citizen lifestyle? How do you afford your Citizen lifestyle? Excess ain't rebellion. You're drinking what they're selling. Your farm foreclosure doesn't phase them. You whales won't stop paying them. They're so happy to rebuild it. They'll never really release it. Yeah, excess ain't rebellion. You're drinking what they're selling. Excess ain't rebellion. You're drinking, You're drinking, You're drinking what they're selling.

It's the old 80-20 rule. You get 80% of the result with 20% of the work (with 'polish' and bugfixing taking up a good amount of the remainder). So in Star Citizen's case, they may as well pack it up and refund the remaining cash.

Acquilae posted:Yeah reddit loves to think they're "open minded" and all but pretty much every subreddit is its own circle jerk and the Dunning-Kruger effect cranked up to 11. Then you have the default ones where like someone earlier said, is hilariously racist and misogynistic. This is pretty much evidenced in every BLM article mentioned, the open prejudice against Muslims after the Paris and San Bernardino shootings, and one that resonated with me was that they thought Sikhs shouldn't wear turbans and do a better job of assimilating if we didn't want to be targeted by bigots after the most recent hate crime against one.  exists for a reason. Remember, this is the website that had to remove its child porn subreddits under duress because folks there somehow couldn't find anything inherently wrong with something called r/jailbait.

So it turns out I actually have a star citien acct I had forgotten about with a basic ship that I brought well before i was aware of the issues. Decided that I ought at least give the game a try. loving thing just crashes on load up. My machines not great, but its not terrible either. It'll run Ark, which is notorious for smashing peoples GPUs on 30fps, its got plenty of ram and so on. But it just crashes without even giving me a reason why. I'm giving their tech support a day to fix this or I'm mashing the refund button

As a coder I can confirm this. Its always the last 10-20% of a project that takes the majority of the time because its always the *fiddly* poo poo that gets left to last.

reddit.com really is the worst website on the internet. If nothing else it's worse than 4chan sites because of the downvote/suppress comments thing. Also 4chan's schtick was people could indulge their miscreancy anonymously, on reddit they're proud of it, smug about it. I don't know what's more off-putting than someone being proud of something he should be ashamed of. Reddit lets degenerates of every type create their own little one-opinion worlds, and i think they get accustomed to thinking anyone who doesn't like it can just shut up, they've been validated. Anyway I despise those people. I don't know why Conde Nast keeps reddit around, they're a pretty urbane and sophisticated company. They publish the New Yorker and Vogue. Architectural Digest, Bon Apetit, Vanity Fair. And then there's reddit.com, cesspool, contrary to any worthwhile idea, an active force for bad in the world, hanging like an albatross around their neck. hakimashou fucked around with this message at 11:31 on Dec 31, 2015 |

Well, therein lies the whole thing about 4chan and reddit. The former is a very outdated dinosaur by this point, but the one thing it has always been is consistent with is its image. It's always presented itself as the scum of the internet, the phrase I remember of it and anonymous the most being: "Because no one is as mean as all of us." or to that effect. As hosed up as the site is, it's never had any kind of pretense about itself that I can see (other than some anons legit trying to think of themselves as the 99% or some dumb poo poo like that). Reddit, on the other hand, just oozes of this pretense, thinking that the upvote and downvote systems and their horrid moderation and consistent lying to others and themselves about what a scummy setup it all is really will go unnoticed by any person, that spends any significant amount of time legit engaging with and observing it. For random visitors it looks decent enough, but dig past it seriously in any direction and it's just a whole bunch of idiots lying to themselves and others and putting on pretentious airs of being better than any other internet community out there via populism and horrible moderation practices. SA has a lot of faults, and it's definitely not the kind of place I'd want to pledge my allegiance to (then again, that's true of any internet community past a certain number of people). But I can at least say it's not as outdated and dumbass as 4chan or pretentious and toxic as reddit. Hence I  on it, rather than any other bigger internet community.

Lowtax posted:Better hurry up, we can only manufacture 7 every 345 decades, so supplies are EXTREMELY limited. The Alpha Goon ($15,000) Need to have it all? The Alpha Goon package lets you have all forum features announced up to 2014, plus a couple 2015 Concepts (See package contents). All limited avatars and limited flair come with an extra copy of themselves (certain exceptions). The package also comes loaded with unlimited signature size and $20,000 GoonBux Starting Money. Please note that this package does not include a forums account, however it unlocks the ability to purchase one through the store (store does not accept GoonBux). Any and all forums accounts you purchase while having an Alpha Goon package comes with LTI, which means they cannot be permabanned.

Sure, however the whole *chan world is a lot bigger than just 4chan these days and quite a lot of the smaller boards see active development in code. It's not outdated as such, it's an intentional stylistic choice, much like preferring SA's kind of incredibly old fashioned forum to... Whatever the gently caress you call reddit. i start gagging when i see nesting quotes. I gotta say tho I have respect for what the chans stand for. Having a place of unabashed perversion and stupidity with absolutely no pretenses about its identity is incredible when you're 16 or whatever I was and most users today are. It's good for you! They'll grow up just like me! Which is great!
