I said "ritualized abuse/murder" which speaks to the act, not any specific dressing the people committing it have chosen to rationalize it with.

Where/how does ritualized abuse/murder originate? This article talks about PNG, but I recall reading of similar incidents in various parts of Africa while the US has it's own fairly recent history of lynching [0]. 0: http://en.wikipedia.or

Very cool and ambitious. I expect the price point and lack of the streamlined Amazon checkout for US backers is going to hurt this one.

So true. I can't say enough for looking through someone else's lens regularly. I think I discovered this years ago overhearing my mother's interactions and frustrations with the IT department at her job. It helped shape my own perspective o

No, not really. I just just realized that I've actually forgotten Netflix is something other than a streaming service. What I'm actually thinking of is effectively subscription-based Steam. One price, access to the whole catalog. The provid

Personally, I'm looking forward to the Netflix of gaming. I'd pay a relatively hefty monthly subscription fee to have unlimited access to an entire library of games.

I own both a PS3 and a 360 and had those same use cases. Then I bought a Roku on whim at Costco one day. As a result, I've used the PS3 once in the last year, I haven't used the 360 at all. I bought both of those consoles when they were new

No. Knowing what I know now from a year's worth of participation I wouldn't mind posting under my real identity on many topics. However, I would have to censor myself often. I don't think I say much that's particularly controversial, just t

I second that question. Off the top of my head, I'm thinking that a system like this could simplify carving/sharing resources - elasticity seems to be a defining "cloud" characteristic. Also, adding an additional layer of abstraction could

Good move. I'd love to see tindie get more exposure. The last time I bought "maker" electronics from someone it involved finding a years-old forum post via Google and arranging the sale via email + paypal.
