That's not really spam. You wouldn't want your email service blocking email you're supposed to get.

Me too. I'm very confused seeing this ask /.

as the stuff people were complaining about.

Intel has pulled an advertising campaign from video gaming website Gamasutra after it reportedly received a number of complaints from self-identified gamers upset that the site was championing fair gender representation in video games.

Wow, could this have been written to represent one side any more strongly?

Because we don't go around kissing dead people on the mouth?

Why would they give me money as a reward for funding them with money?

They give you a $200 per diem at CES. But.. why not just make the reward level that much cheaper? I don't get it.

I'm guessing its' tough to tell because it's not nearly such a big event. With your choice of a bazillion different models, each with some feature the others don't have, the amount of people excited about any particular one will be significantly lower.

The problem isn't how do we make people safer drivers.

The problem is how do we make people NOT the drivers. Then we don't have to worry about whether they are texting.

Part of kickstarter should be that you've already taken a substantive risk on your own. Making a game demo with, for example, limited level/playtime is a good mark that you are capable of producing the rest.

Since there is no recourse once the funding takes place for funders, this doesn't seem unreasonable.

Why anyone cares what this guy has to say boggles my mind. He may have had a hand in some good games decades ago, but what have you done for me lately?

Oh yeah, you took a steaming turd on my computer. Thanks.

In other news, North Korea is the best Korea.

They want to regulate Canadian media consumption -- the same way they've been doing for decades.

Seems like a big non-story.

doesn't mean you should.

Thinking that any Linux distro, just because it could be run in both environments, should be developed to be suitable for both seems wrong.

Why not just pick a desktop-oriented existing distro for your desktop and a server-focused one for your production environment?

And if you need to develop on your server environment, then this doesn't really matter to you, since you have to pick what's best for your production environment regardless of your desktop.

while they could, amazon has never raised prices on AWS.

also I have no real choice in my selection of provider.

i'm not paying extra to use the data I paid for how I want. AT&T wants me to. Jailbreak.

I haven't heard about ACM since I left school and I wasn't interested then.. so why join now?
