Grump posted:Also, wtf. That entire Kickstarter plot point seemed so out of place and unnatural. At least the first scene when Kumail first brought up donating 5000. It seems pretty clear they're going to end up funding Pied Piper with kickstarter. Rewards Tier 1 ($500,000) Erlich jerks off every guy in this room.

adrenaline_junket posted:The only thing that was missing to make it credible, was talk about growth first, revenue later. Pretty much every week TechCrunch reports on a startup that is prioritising user growth over revenue. Rolling up with Limp Bizkit blasting told me all I needed to know about the character.

Xoidanor posted:Obviously, I'm saying that it's hilarious considering that he's a self-proclaimed genius entrepreneur who regularly sits on Shark Tank and talk poo poo when he really just lucked out on the dotcom bubble. And managed to get his money out of said bubble before it burst, that's not just luck. Don't get me wrong, he's a crazy randroid douchebro, but it's not like he took daddy's money and managed to gently caress up drilling oil and fell rear end backwards into being president of the US.

BIG HEADLINE posted:Whoever got Cuban (or suggested he join the cast) onto Shark Tank did wonders for his reputation. I watch way too much of that show and Mark Cuban really is the least pretentious/terrible rich dickbag on it. For whatever little that means.

red19fire posted:The best joke is that Gilfoyle mentions building a bitcoin miner, then every server thing he brings in housed in a milk crate. And pushing GPU solutions on them, which if my buttcoin knowledge is up to date, and it very very much is not, have not been any good for mining for at least like 2 years.

Edmund Lava posted:I think they just wanted someone to say Bitcoin. I wouldn't mind seeing some greatest hits buttcoin rigs show up, like Gilfoyle has one sitting outside covered with a pizza box on top of it to protect it from the snow (ok there's no snow but still) or he gives himself brain damage falling asleep in the same room as his buttcoin rigs.

MC Fruit Stripe posted:Did you just call a hat antiquated? What world are you in? The world we all live in. Unless you're over 70 anything but a baseball cap or a legitimate cold weather hat is hilariously antiquated and should be mocked relentlessly. Henchman of Santa posted:That's like the only thing worse than a fedora I would argue that driver's caps are worse (second to fedoras of course). If one wants to look like an inbred cowfucker by wearing a stetson, it is at least mostly acceptable in large regions of this country.

hallebarrysoetoro posted:What about the waste heat from the server farm, there are no proper cooling systems installed in their garage which represents a potential fire hazard. This show clearly ignores specific NEC and NFPA 101 guidelines which is unrealistic Well they're using former buttcoin rigs so adequate cooling is sticking a box fan in the doorway maybe after someone gets brain damage from heat stroke.

Clipperton posted:"Madam! Do not call a man a 'fool' on the transom of his own home--a home that happens to be the world headquarters of a company keeping streaming video of a man who's about to drink his own urine online for tens of thousands of Filipinos! Does that sound like 'foolishness' to you?" I loved how he then goes "respectfully, go gently caress yourself."

Ur Getting Fatter posted:Yeah, perhaps a sounder approach would've been curtailing the extent of the intellectual property clause since it's honestly kind of insane that making some minor modifications to the software on Hooli's computers automatically gives them full IP rights over it. Especially since Richard probably didn't even use like Hooli's special version of Git or whatever + everything was hosted on Richard's private GitHub. Nah, that part is completely believable, welcome to intellectual property law - it's not just retarded about file sharing!

Pharmaskittle posted:I dunno why riviga would take Gavin as a CEO honestly, since his cred is going to be shot with anyone in the know about the nucleus fiasco. I could see him getting put in a powerless figurehead position with pp though, since his firing could be spun to the general public as a genius getting ousted for being too ballsy. Because I can easily see sperglord Raviga lady basing the decision entirely upon the heretofore success of Hooli and ignoring all the conflicts of interest and bad feelings between him and PP.

Because he's disgraced in rational people's eyes by getting fired from Hooli, but beep boop sperg lady from Raviga would only see the numbers of the situation and well hey this guy ran a hugely successful company and now he's available, numbers! Also comedy show. Also the lawyer is still a lawyer, he is just not an attorney, this is an important distinction.
