Beer4TheBeerGod posted:2. An Aegis dogfighter priced at or above $175 will be made available. At least one reference to Vindicator will be made. It will be better than the Super Hornet. This is one of the things that I find particularly galling about this whole thing, and one of the reasons I started to lose interest before deciding to sell off my ships and get my last package refunded and account closed. So even as somebody who has completely divested from this fiasco, the fact that all of the priciest early-campaign ships have repeatedly been superseded in order to justify increasingly-inflated pricing is just so obnoxious. It's emblematic of everything that is wrong with CIG's decision-making.

OK coffee talk The grinder is as important as the espresso machine. The grinder is only as good as its burr. The best burr in the world is (arguably) the Mazzer Robur Three Phase 83mm Conical Burr. The price for the burr itself is ~$250.00 US: https://www.espressoparts.com/mazzer-robur-three-phase-83mm-conical-espresso-grinder-burrs-ships-in-4-6-weeks This burr is only used in big rear end commercial shop machines that cost upwards several thousand dollars. I don't even think you can order an actual commercial machine that uses this burr online. HOWEVER, in recent years some peeps came up with a well produced, well machined, hand operated system for using this burr. It's called the HG-ONE grinder: http://hg-one.com/ It costs around $1,000.00 US. You can actually use this huge rear end commercial Mazzer burr in your own house for your own espresso. For $1,000.00. Money that you could instead spend on jpegs of space ships.

"They thought he was reaching for the stars, but what he got his hands on... was their wallets." "A once-beloved video game guru is under indictment for defrauding fans and investors to the tune of a hundred million dollars. But could it have been avoided? We'll tell you all about the quiet corner of the internet where a few dissenting voices pleaded for sanity--to no avail. Tonight... on 60 minutes."

G0RF posted:I really think you're selling everything that's wrong with CIG's decision-making short. True, but CIG can make even the most arbitrary and capricious decisions with approximately zero impact to 95% of their community's decisions to pull out their wallets and throw money, so there's that going for them I guess.

I'll admit that it's amusing that you kids actually believe your little echo-chamber of wailing and self-pity here is somehow above groupthink, when it's blatantly clear to any passerby that groupthink is present here in spades. Realtalk you guys, the level of toxicity and defeatism here affects everyone after a while, no matter how level-headed they start out. Beer is the perfect example. You all drove him mad and got him banned with your fears and anxiety. People like Beer are a sponge for the emotions of others. I hope you're happy, because he's a good man who deserved better. Cynicism masquerades as wisdom, but it is the farthest thing from it. Because cynics don't learn anything. Cynicism is a self-imposed blindness, a rejection of the world because we are afraid it will hurt us or disappoint us. AvatarOfBolrog fucked around with this message at 06:50 on Oct 10, 2015 |
