S-so uh how about those Kickstarters?

Here's a Kickstarter. For only $2 ($1 if you get in early) you can have your named carved into a tree and then have a photo of your name carved into the tree emailed to you. $6 to have another person's name and yours in a heart! And for those of you with deep pockets, it's only $20 to physically be there while your name is carved into a tree. What a deal!

I don't understand, isn't silver the best naturally occurring conductor of electricity, wouldn't that have no effect on the signals?

Dunno if it is, but that one surely is:
One of the most interesting PC devices in the market in recent years!
  • air nozzles
  • heating element
  • dynamic scent generator based on aroma oils
  • tracking cameras
  • holographic projectors
  • ambient color lighting
  • delivery in under a year

to work with the old games, SenseFlow analyzes operative memory (RAM)

we will set a hotkey for the user to click it if something goes wrong

at the average one game takes from 4 to 12 hours of manual settings, so the probability of bugs is very small

And what about the smells? How is it analyzed in general?
It's commercial secret, and we can't tell you something about it, sorry.

Also I'm pretty sure there are legal requirements for saying the "process of an aromatherapy ... will allow people to get rid of various illnesses". Like actual real world laws, not IndieGoGo "guidelines".

Does it generate smells?

Eh, slightly worse than Cards Against Humanity or other funny card games. At least it would be somewhat original.

The My Oppression Card Project definitely won't raise millions and it probably won't even meet its funding goal at all:

The FAQ posted:

Signals will come thorugh other parts of skull - Many people are asking about signals that come through other parts of head and hit the inside of the reflective cap, then pass back through the brain a second time or stay inside and multiply their power - This is ridiculous. The signal is not a bullet and the hat is not a miracle. It`s like giving a question, "why do i feel cold in my winter jacket, it was supposed to protect me against cold and it comes thorugh my sleeves, top and bottom parts." Nothing is one hundred percent and everything depends on other factors. But in any case, you are not going to freeze in that winter jacket ;)

Suggest the person wears a full suit of lead-lined clothes, and for extra safety they should jump into a lake because water shields from radio waves.

hi how are you

Here's an awful kickstarter:

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2050848594/redefining-italian-luxury-watches?ref=home_popular

There's nothing really wrong with these watches. They're just regular-style cheap quartz watches with $10 movements in them, but the advertising is berserk and they've somehow soaked nearly 5,000 rubes for about 750,000 Euros.

I do, they're more convenient than phones when you want to check the time and they hardly ever run out of batteries. I like the Casio F91-W because it's cheap and does the things I just said.

There's one reason I've considered getting a wristwatch: Apparently "what's the time" is a not uncommon overture to a phone-snatching.

However I am a big guy, who doesn't go out much, in a safe part of a mid sized city, with a lovely phone, so... eh.
