It's a $400 juicer that people found that you didn't need to actually use the horribly over-priced juice packs. Yves Behar was the designer behind the OUYA and apparently doesn't grind coffee with his fists.

it's really more of a squeezer than a juicer since you are buying juice to put in it.

Sarsapariller posted:I've been doing my first play through of Fallout: New Vegas. Worth a play, but you have to pretend that the bombs fell like 20 years ago instead of 200. Doesn't make a hell of a lot of sense if the people have been sitting in rubble and sheet metal huts for seven or eight full generations. If you want a fallout with the "The bombs just dropped" feel built into its lore, check out the "Frost" overhaul for Fallout 4 http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/18898/ The whole surface is a foggy, radioactive nuclear winter giving you rad poisoning everywhere, from 2 rad/sec in the coutry to cities being the worst at up to 10+ rad/sec. You start out in a big tunel network and from there on its up to you to survive. It suffer the same problem many survival game have (you either die early or reach a point where survival become trivial) but having the whole of fallout 4 assets to play with give it a little more depth. Good for giving the game a second life after one or two playtrough. Bootcha posted:I have about 25 pages of information I'm trying to parse down. Somebody find a fat calf for some Texas style BBQ.

in honour of this thread, last week I had a pizza with chipotle-barbecue sauce, pineapple and black olives. The next day I had another one because it was loving delicious (and because the pizza bases come in packs of 2 and it would have gone stale) No Regrets

cynic posted:I keep skipping hundreds of posts in this thread, and each time I read a few pages it just seems that they are no closer to having any actual gameplay. Can someone in the know let me know what actual gameplay mechanics have been released in the last 6 months or so? I've seen pretties, but nothing that suggests any meaningful progress towards creating something anyone would want to actually play. Weird. Nothing outside of Star Marine putting some structure around the earlier free for all gunfights. They did add some content in the form of new places to go (and nothing to do there) or things to buy (but no new way to earn money aside the already present handfull of missions.) but that is not "gameplay" to me.

Oh is this about the juicero? The thing is legendary. I wrote an engineering case study about it in a class for value management, explaining how complete lack of budged concerns can not only lead to horribly overpriced products that have to be sold at a loss but also often are so unnecessary complex that they become very vulnerable to errors, failures and the like. The juicero is probably the king of this. It's a 2000 dollar machine sold at a loss of 1600 dollars and all it does is squeezing 5 dollar juice packs (that's hardly a single glass of juice by the way) The thing had WiFi, a camera, IOT and all that bogus stuff. When it came out that the software security was laughable and that you could basically spy out people's homes over the build in camera, customers tried to tape the camera opening which lead to the whole thing refusing to work. It's a great piece of technological nightmares really and a perfect example why a lack of project limitations is not a thing one should celebrate. Here's a teardown of it by the way. https://youtu.be/_Cp-BGQfpHQ Combat Theory fucked around with this message at 16:53 on Jul 26, 2017 |

Combat Theory posted:The juicero is probably the king of this. It's a The machine itself is mildly over-engineered, but the kicker is that the machine supplies finger pressure, just a lot more consistently, to the pack. It's part of the move towards printer-inkifying foodstuffs that creates a 'subscription' relationship with the consumer. The other bits about the internet of poo poo are pretty much common now. I embrace this technology and run an outbound firewall because most of the projects are produced with a very light concept of security or what uses you can put a device to. The camera on the device was for the barcodes, though. I just think it's loving hilarious that they came up with a $400 single use machine that takes a consumable where it's not actually necessary to have the machine in the first place. Like Product development 101. That Yves Behar was connected to it just makes it all the funnier.

It's a remnant of hunting trips when I was a kid, but after years of trying to be a "coffee snob" I realized that for me nothing tastes better than dirt cheap pre-ground stuff filtered through an old sock. Which is fine by me, cause the habit is way cheaper that way haha.
