That's likely true, but if the ride wasn't enough for those people, they shouldn't have spent money on it. It's like a person who chooses to spend $20 on lottery tickets and then gets mad that they didn't win. Don&#

That's fair. I probably shouldn't have said "I would NEVER..." because that's false. It's more a problem that I don't frequent Steam Greenlight enough to see the kinds of things that I'd be interested

>Your expectations are probably in line with reality I think this is the key. A lot of people are sucked into the idea that kickstarters are a sure thing, but you can't spend money that way. Kickstarter isn't a place to buy stu

That's definitely fair, but I think if what you really want is a disc or a download, then you shouldn't back games that don't exist yet. Like I said, I won't invest in a game (or anything) that might not materialize unle

This will probably not be a well-liked response but I'm going to post it anyway. I preordered Star Citizen back in 2012 or 2013. Whenever the original Kickstarter was. I've kind of forgotten about it. I've never preordered an

I wasn't are that the Department of Transportation ran the schools, or are you honestly implying that the same sort of organizational structure is at place because they're both "the gubment"?

Have you played CAPSULE[1]? It sounds almost exactly like what you just described, and was one of my favorite games of the year. [1] http://store.steampowered.com/app/303940/CAPSULE/

I set up SquareHome 2 with Minimalistic Text widgets to be kind of a retro-futuristic control panel for my phone. I'll bet with some time and the right icon packs it would make a pretty nice cockpit HUD.

This is really a case of "If you have to ask, you'll never know." That's not meant to be derogatory, just that if you don't have a problem with GNU, you won't have a problem with GNU, because there's not

Are they going head to head with Apple and Samsung? Like they definitely tried that, but this device seems to be moving back to catering to the business person who isn't playing games on their phone or watching videos.

Professional bloggers often seem out of touch with the rest of the world. They seem to think everybody starts their day out with an hour at Starbucks drinking $5 cups of coffee and replying to tweets, then heads out to the gym to take selfi

>it's that the diversity of non-unique pieces has greatly increased. Ahh, I see. That makes sense, but also I fail to see how that's a bad thing. The new pieces are built to be backwards compatible with your Legos from 30 years

Okay but that's not what I was replying to. The post I replied to made no mention of reciprocity, only saying that the original code was available.

It's easier to hand out these alternative facts that support the GPL's mission.

This is exactly what MIT and BSD licenses do.

Remember this is a meter tall, some of the detail is lost in the image. Lego Ideas kits only use pre-existing parts.

I think you're overestimating the number of specialized pieces out there. This is easy to do when you walk down the toy aisle at Walmart and see thirty big box Star Wars models, each with one or two unique pieces. But Lego actually mak

I work in IT, so not exactly the same, but I can relate so much to your pain. Teams are constantly bringing in some half-baked app that "Worked in the demo" and give us the registration key and a date to have it running by. Invari

Calling it management's incompetence is probably unfair, although certainly there is a lot of incompetence in the retail sector. I think it's more accurate to call it corporate inertia. It's easier to build such a network for

I guess it depends on the nature of why you left. For instance: I would not post such a thing (or at least I would do so anonymously) if I had a very negative experience with a company. However, if the reason I left was simply one of cultur

Yeah, try calling for support when Photoshop starts acting weird. "Sorry, we only support macOS."

Because blogging and publishing videos is easier than ever. Nothing has changed about the culture. In 1972, if someone left a company, they would willingly tell anybody who cared to ask. It is a frequent question during the interview proces
