Video games should be like real life, where nobody you work with ever mentions their same-sex spouse or partner, and lady soldiers wear layered bustiers because that is a super practical outfit for fighting. Also, maybe Derek isn't a pizza fan because he can't eat wheat or cheese? Gluten-free pizza is just not that good, and neither is pizza with vegan cheese substitutes. (There is a place here that advertises gluten-free, dairy-free pizza, and my assumption is that it's some kind of CIA torture cell.)

Xaerael posted:Further inspection, it's a YSL bag that's no where to be found on the internet. So it's probably an ultra limited run store only thing, so yeah, four figures. It looks like a variant on the Y Mail line, which was affordable by St. Laurent standards, so maybe $950 - $1200 new? The line was big in 2008-2010, so Sandi might have gotten it second-hand, who knows.

Sandi is low key, for her. Dress looks like a Yisgal Azrouel from a couple of years ago, maybe $800. If the necklace is Roberto Coin, it's around $1200, but if it's something else in a similar style, maybe $500. Rings are likely not too crazy, maybe $300 per. The watch I couldn't guess. Not a watch person. So with the $1200 bag, again from a few years ago, she's certainly wearing a few months' rent for most people, but the backers will never know. I am starting to wonder if she buys stuff used. She is certainly short and slender enough to have her pick at fancy consignment stores (always easier to take things in or hem them shorter, not easy to let them out or take the hems down).

I cannot get over that drill sergeant's hat. It's like it was designed by someone who had never seen a hat before, only heard them described, and the person describing hats left out any mention of how they actually sit on people's heads.

The slow propagation of interstellar signals thing was a staple of science fiction in the 1970s. John Brunner used it in a couple of his books. ME seems to have put an interesting spin on it. Maybe Star Citizen will ha ha ha ha ha ha no.The Rabbi T. White posted:Just in case this got missed in my previous wall of text:  gently caress, the guy on the right makes Stallman look like George Clooney in terms of style. Who shows up for a professional meeting dressed like that? At least Crobbers has the excuse that he's modeling the t-shirt so his fanboys will buy it.

Kephael posted:I wouldn't take a software developer seriously if they came dressed in a suit. In fact, I'd think there were serious culture issues in the environment if they came overly dressed. Yes. But the devs I know and have worked with wear casual shirts and jeans that they purchased this century, not ridiculously oversized castoffs from Styx's roadies on the Come Sail Away tour. I'm letting it go now, though. The Titanic posted:Be sure to mix it up a bit next time. This sounds like the beginning of a logic puzzle. "Toast never tells the truth.

BitBasher posted:The first and second halves of this sentence completely contradict each other. That's so Star Citizen, though. The missions are all complete and now they just have to "put the code on top of the ideas" (I believe those were Crobbler's words), so if they're still in graybox, they're complete because if the ideas are complete then everything is complete, even if it hasn't been completed.

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:I bet some mark in Amazon's Game Department fell for the same bullshit tricks that Chris has been using since the Wing Commander days. Meanwhile CIG will use this to justify further delays as they slowly reveal new problems that they now get to blame on Amazon. Amazon gets an amazing sucker list plus an army of social media shills, along with CIG's AWS fees. Amazon gives CIG nothing but access to a thing they've explicitly set up as a "free with purchase" way of getting AWS customers in the door. The only downside I see for Amazon is the embarrassment of being associated with this clowncar.

Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah! So far we have managed to avoid setting the house on fire with the double complement of candles. Ha ha ha, someone wrote a statement for Crobblers attempting to finesse the past several months of bullshit and lies. The sad part is that it will probably work. I'm pleased to announce my partnership with the Episcopal Diocese of Massachusetts, as exemplified by my attending services this morning and putting a check in the collection plate. I don't want to brag, but this partnership has been in the works since my baptism some decades ago, and I think having a high-profile person like me on board with the Episcopal Church will help bring much-needed publicity to its new (450 years or so) product offerings.
