Bayonnefrog posted:But yeah I just assumed that everyone in here had played Eve since this was SA and followed their leader Mittani since this is a space game forum and stuff. But I don't think that's the case after seeing the replies. There's a bunch of nuance about old friends and new friends and friends that give good fite that reduce the concept of 'goon purity' to a vaguey nationalistic oddity. Personally my high point was when TEST sent a bunch of cargo ships as part of a UN humanitarian force when we found out that one of the smaller alliances was sharecropping their 0.0 members. The prank caused a diplomatic incident that caused a war shortly after. Even funnier was TEST originally researching the best place to start in 0.0, and deciding to try and get as far away as goons as possible, only to read the map upside down and become our neighbors. It was so damned . Beet Wagon posted:Every small vehicle is running on the same "skeleton" as their rover. The reason the rover and the Dragonfly work is because they have a big flat bottom to them that the Nox doesn't, so when the game tries to place the wheels or hover points or whatever it can find somewhere to put them with a little stability on those two but not the Nox. Their future is going to have to be modular, mainly to provide for the variety that they'll eventually be looking for. This modularity is showing up in the surface structures, and I'm actually expecting a ship rework at some point, taking very careful note of the... DO NOT TOUCH THE SHIPS ...mantra which actually makes things difficult to maneuver around.

Bayonnefrog posted:Yes. I've said this multiple times. You can't go to jail for being incompetent. You can. Breaking the law, then supplying the evidence to the prosecution is pretty drat incompetent and happens all the time. This year especially. Bayonnefrog posted:The only way legal stuff couldn't get involved is if they took all the money and bought an island in the Caribean and never made a game. But I think we're way past that point. I think you mean 'could'; yeah, direct malfeasance is the easiest way, and you can't prosecute based upon a 'best effort' criminally, but that doesn't mean that civil action is off the table, particularly when you consider that _damages_ approaches tens of thousands rather than say $40. That's my fun. Missed expectations on $40 is fine. Missed expectations in the thousands requires a lot more self-delusion.

Bribase posted:Honestly by your spiteful attitudes I'd say you guys are mostly republicans. Although I cannot cite any sources for that. Just my impression by the tone and things wished on the devs, and your laughter at the abuse of workers. This is why you don't get it. Your meltdowns on Reddit show this in amazing clarity. You are missing a very fundamental part of understanding and interpreting social situations. And the limited tools that you have at your disposal are inadequate. Everything has to fit into some preconceived category for you and if not, then you cannot relate to it in any way and you get it completely wrong. This is one of those situations.

SomethingJones posted:Yeah turns out it's not as simple as I always thought for retail so I'm wrong about that, or at least almost right, in some cases, sometimes... Yeah for what's it worth, the items are considered to be an, "invitation to treat". Fisher vs Bell covered items in a shop window, there is another one for items on a supermarket shelf I think. It is possible to make an "offer to the world at large". Carlill vs Carbolic Smokeball Company is the case that is most often cited on that but it's much harder to establish and even that case is considered a bit ropey. It's English common law but I'm pretty sure it's studied in US law schools too for some reason. I'm sure a resident paralegal could clarify.
