I bet he will soon have the great idea to put a bunch of keywords in meta tags on all his pages too! There's no market for it. Anyone who could be persuaded to buy blind ignorance and wilful stupidity already has a plentiful supply of both.

Count Chocula posted:Would people hate her so much if she wasn't a woman? She came up with a dodgy Kickstarter, she didn't kill anyone. I don't think anyone hates her because she's a woman, or at least nobody worth listening to. They hate her because she's wealthy enough to send her daughter to game camp without the Kickstarter, and because she's psychologically abusing her children for money.

kemikalkadet posted:The Gridiron Thunder campaign randomly jumped $45k today. I'm guessing that since OUYA said they were fine with the way Gridirons campaign has been run they might as well milk them for as much double funding as they can. I wouldn't be surprised if it conveniently stops around $250k before the campaign is over (the max amount OUYA will double). I don't think so, there's only 43 minutes left and they're at $170k from their 182 backers. If OUYA are fine with how that's going, then they're idiotic or insane. I love the way the project lost three backers on the 4th but the funding went up by $5000.

Zybourne Clock posted:You know that pesky physics thing called 'entropy' that claims all electromechanical devices create thermal energy that cannot be used for useful work, and therefore cannot have an energy efficiency of 100% or greater? As it turns out, that's more of a suggestion than a rule. $7610 is enough to build an 'over-unity' engine that makes more energy than it consumes. Well hush my mouth, it's flexible funding on Indiegogo. Time to quote Einstein on things that are infinite, I guess.

Zybourne Clock posted:I know ghosts don't exist, but that doesn't mean I won't go hunting for them. This guy wants $20,000 for his project, but he clearly didn't think his audience through. Believers won't fund him because he's a skeptic, and skeptics won't fund him because they don't need a documentary to tell them there's no such thing as ghosts Actually there's a big market for sceptical documentaries in Fortean circles, so long as they're well researched and don't ignore evidence that doesn't match their preconceptions. Finding truth has never been as important as looking for it.

senrath posted:To be fair to them, while the OUYA was supposed to be a games console that happened to run Android, this one seems to be a multimedia center that happens to be able to run a few games. I still wouldn't fund it, but their business model at least seems to be better than OUYA's. My three year old TV already does everything this does other than play a handful of games that I can play on my two year old phone. Way to keep up with the curve, guys!

One early morning they found him swinging from a tree close to the house. He had some weird ideas about masculinity. Swinging from trees is a very masculine thing to do. I suspect you mean to say that he wasn't using either arm to hang on, though.
