Fades

My boss LOVES to throw that out all the time as a defense for when I inform him that he and mgmt are rushing something out the door that isn’t ready.

It definitely has wisdom but it’s not something to wave around all the time either.

Not that that’s the problem here, SC ain’t ever coming out and it’s not because of perfection. It’s because it’s a scam lol

Read this fucking gofundme trash: https://robertsspaceindustries.com/funding-goals

Jesus fucking Christ! What a goddamn scam.

If you donate 65 million dollars worth of stretch goals we’ll make the game! But only if we meet the stretch goals.. otherwise go fuck yourself, give us more money!

That whole page you linked is fucking gross. What kind of morons have dumped 65 million dollars into an unproven fucking kickstarter

Seriously, I encourage people to read the text for some of these stretch goals of tens of millions of dollars, it’s a goddamn scam

For reaching 3.5 million in donations, this is the stretch goal reward:

• Cockpit decorations – Turn your stock cockpit into your home with personalized decorations; amaze your friends with bobbleheads, photographs, dinosaurs, fuzzy dice, nose art, posters and many more cool options!
• Ship boarding – learn more about how Star Citizen will allow players to conduct boarding operations.

It sounds like a fucking scam, 3.5 million to be able to place decorations in your ship???

For 19 million dollars:

• Know your foe with a Jane’s Fighting Ships style manual free in PDF form to all pledgers.
• Manage Space Stations – Players will compete to own and operate a limited number of space stations across the galaxy.
• RSI Museum will air monthly, with a new game featured each time!

Like really? You needed 19 million dollars to be able to provide a pdf ship manual to users? Good thing the PDF is free though!!! (Free, after paying 19 million usd of course)

Yeah because everyone knows once a company drops LTS the software becomes completely unusable!!!

I’ve literally had zero bugs while playing, have you? Other commenters seem to agree with my experience as well. Have you even played the game?

There really is a base under Cheyanne mountain and the US gov does indeed have a program that was named Stargate too :)

never showed proof

Do… do you think that these forces always snap a pic of the body they just killed and post it to social media and msm? When was the last time you saw proof of death for one of these targets taken down by special forces. I’ll wait.

because China has always been oh so welcoming of other religions right? Sources are great but calling this an outrageous claim is a bit much given the historical context.

as dubious as the value they provided

Go look at bitcoin and tell me the value dubious. Here I’ll help: https://finance.yahoo.com/chart/BTC-USD click the 5y view at the bottom.

Yes crypto is full of scam coins, but scammers permeate everything, should we give up on email too for the same reasons? Saying crypto in general is a scam is just ignorant.

XMR as well provides key privacy protections, etc.

None of those things are dead in any way, maybe nfts at best but btc has been back towards all time highs a few times just this year. Some scam, right?

Same with AI, so powerful but everyone just says AI art bad and that’s that as is that’s all AI can do, make art and steal low skill jobs away 🙄

What a lame unoriginal post, yeah AI hype is dying down and interest is normalizing, must be dYiNg!!!! Give me a break.

That is not control over the weather such that hurricanes can occur and you know that

Would you look at that yet another anti Mozilla post in this community. Go ahead and scroll thru the posts and you'll find at least 4 from the last week or two alone

Not surprised, this community is terrible for actual technology need and discussion
