DigitalMocking posted:Good lord, leave the thread for two weeks and ... Schedule's a hilarious attempt to garner trust and rake in a final few waves of cash. It's somehow working. CIG managed to make a shooter in Cryengine except maybe possibly a ton of it was staged and poo poo was disabled so it wouldn't crash constantly. Still kinda surprised they got together what they did.

Doxx post on /r/StarCitizen has been highly upvoted "All of this is from PUBLIC profiles/github repos/blogs explicitly linked to real life names and companies... on first glance this will look a lot like a "doxx post" but I swear it's not. This is about a CEO, a startup company, an open source github, and how all this relates to CIG."

We've been expecting the "final few waves of cash" at least a couple dozen times by now, if the backers haven't woken up yet they're not likely to do so anytime soon The most we can honestly expect is the occasional streetroller-type convert, getting out after some seemingly arbitrary gently caress-up. Better settle in for a long, long ride.

Quavers posted:Doxx post on /r/StarCitizen has been highly upvoted i'm not sure i understand. is the argument that, because something is publicly available and not illegal to re-distribute, that it is then ethically OK and totally normal to compile information like that? i might not understand exactly what doxxing actually means, like maybe it implies breaking the law, or seeking out non-public information. like, taking the guy who posted the picture of the Thanksgiving setup as an example; it isn't breaking the law, and it doesn't require much effort or loading up any hacking tools or whatever, so maybe you can't call something like that doxxing, but to me, regardless of it being legal and easy to do, it is still feels indicative of being weirdly obsessive

The fact that after 130 million dollars and 4 years, CIG managed to make a 4v4 FPS arena shooter in Cryengine shows how much of a visionary Roberts really is. This is stuff nobody in the gaming industry have done before.

So looking at their new schedule 2.6 is pretty much out the window barring a miracle. It technically says 12-13 but it only says that because they cut all the evocati and ptu to basically nothing arbitrarily. If they left it at regular lengths we"re into next year (they shut down 12-19) assuming NOTHING goes wrong and the blockers are solved today. Its insane and some citizens are starting to pave the way to "i didnt ecpect it anyway its in the game already" bs.

Maybe the backers will finally wake up! Accountability will be had, Crobber, Sandy and Ortwin will be fined/jailed for fraud, and someone ELSE will make the BDSSE! I can dream, can't I?

I think the argument is that  is very quick to call dox when you link stuff like IMDB and LinkedIn profiles, especially of well-known and highly publicised people, only to then immediately turn around and say that “…oh, but this is all public information, so no dox” when they compile far more scattered personal information about someone unknown for themselves.

If you're trying to defend your own actions, you say it's not doxxing because it's all publicly available. If you want to call out somebody else's, you claim that their malicious intentions makes whatever they're doing suspect and/or illegal The only thing I've learnt about doxxing in the thread is that it's an immensely tedious subject

Tijuana Bibliophile posted:Fruits and vegetables aren't mutually exclusive terms though, also you first have to define whether you're talking about botanical or gastronomical fruits True, but I was more wondering if this was one of those cases where an apparent berry is actually a fruit (or vice versa) or some false fruit or just a seed. I suppose it also depends on exactly what part we're talking about : wiki says the whole thing is apparently a grain, but the actual kernels are a fruit. It is also a grass. In conclusion, biologists are silly.

The sand people are human because for whatever reason they don't wear gloves. And their northern European looking skin color is visible. Cause you know that would not get sunburn in a couple of hours in that desert.

I suppose it also depends on exactly what part we're talking about : wiki says the whole thing is apparently a grain, but the actual kernels are a fruit. It is also a grass. The thing that's got the seed be fruit, whatever else its name might be. Berries are fruit or compound fruits, drupes are fruits, most of the things we call nuts are fruit. It's not really that biologists are silly, more that people very reasonably confuse the biological concept with the everyday one, since while the things we call fruit are fruits, many things we don't call fruit are also fruits. If some insufferable pedant claims "yeah that thing isn't actually a fruit  ", he's very likely an idiot. On the other hand, if you ask for a fruit and some insufferable pedant hands you a tomato, that's probably OctopodeHere are some things that aren't fruits:

moveable shape posted:Please summon the restraint. Let's pretend we have some loving class here alright? I hate that i have to act as the voice of reason, but he's right (and the others who commented are right too). Occasional ben fat joke is okay, because it's funny coz it's stupid. Joking about Ben's thanksgiving dinner as an abstract is low, and not very funny, but somewhat okay. Overanalyzing Ben's dinner photo makes thread sad, though. Posting internet meme gifs as reactions makes thread sad too. Show some class, thread, it's a slippery slope.
