I never got the whole redesign bitching... It wasn't a huge deal in my opinion. And yes I've read the top dugg articles about how it's terrible and why. Also the exposés of upvoting leagues and bots etc...

I think it just had far more to do with reddit showing up at the same time and being better. And no I don't read reddit. More of a fazed.net follower.

But this in my opinion is still an improvement over the previous policy.

I completely disagree.

Did you ever get a warning letter or your service shut off by Comcast? You said you go over all the time right? So of course you would think this is worse. But had the last rules actually been enforced as they were written you would lose your service. Here they increase the cap to what amounts to 349GB and charge you $10 at 350GB or $20 at 400GB. I could be wrong about the cap if they're just charging 20 cents a GB after 300 but it still is better than having your service shut off at 250.

Obviously I would also prefer no cap at all or at least an unenforced cap

At least I already own (thanks to other sales) or don't give two craps about whats out there today. But I know there is something coming that will scream, "You must own this!" and I will bite because I am a gaming consumer whore.

Same here. I've already bought all the games I want. The only thing right now I'm semi-interested in is Spec Ops because Yahtzee actually got me interested in it. Though it's only $5 off right now. Anyone think it'll go on sale or is it too early?

edit: Just got the "Pillar of Community" badge... Easy stuff. Though I was actually out of game videos to upload.

I thought I liked it until I grabbed all the territory only to realize the next main mission was going to take it all away from me and I'd have to do it again later.

I would second Sepharo's recommendation of Breaking Bad though. Bryan Cranston has done a phenomenal job with that show. I'll also toss out The Wire, easily the best television I've seen in a long, long, time.
I'm on episode 5 of the first season of The Wire right now. I meant to start it way earlier during the TV doldrums, now it's going to overlap with Breaking Bad.

MajorD wrote on Jul 12, 2012, 13:35:
Isn't this the final season for Breaking Bad? Season Premier this Sunday! ;-)
Yep. But I'm thinking of it as the second to last season now since there is a fucking year long break half way through. May as well be two short seasons.

I don't think I've seen anything since the two aforementioned shows which I would consider real quality television when it comes to fiction. In fact, it's all gotten considerably worse overall.

Ever try Breaking Bad?

Both.

Honestly it seems pretty damn reasonable. I very rarely go over 250GB and when I do it's not by a huge amount. Comcast is going to upgrade that to 300GB... The first three times I go over that there's no charge, and then when I do go over it there's only a $10 charge when I go over by 50GB.

Those are some pretty soft rules and I imagine they're doing so because existing policy would go from being very soft (non-existent) to shutting down your service for egregious and repeat offenses. This is better.

Of course the downside is the precedent itself. As we become more and more data intensive Comcast will have to raise the cap to stay reasonable and that's going to be hard for them to do when they're making more and more off of overages.

Speak for yourself. We're 12 days into July and I'm already at 177GB for the month just from the family streaming video on our Rokus.

Wha? I said the rule change was reasonable... You'd prefer to have your service shut off for going over 250GB instead of a 300GB cap and a three strikes rule that once broken results in a $10 charge for 50GB over (essentially making it a 349GB cap).

If they did decide to charge for increased caps (instead of overages) what do you think would be reasonable? You could pay an extra 5 on your bill for an extra 100GB on your cap? $5 per extra 100GB on contract or $10 per extra 50GB on overages, something like that.

Believe me I don't like caps either, I wish it was all unlimited... I wish it was free fiber for all. But this in my opinion is still an improvement over the previous policy. But like I said the issue is with keeping it reasonable as the average data usage increases.

Penny Arcade: "What we're asking for is fair"…

You make a web comic, have some perspective.

This doesn't make any sense. Beyond charities and scientific research you might as well say that to anyone seeking compensation. It's just a video game, have some perspective. It's just an iPhone connected watch with a display, have some perspective. Also if you watch PATV you'll see that making the comic is probably only 10% of their work day. And that's just for Mike and Jerry, the other 12 people who work there have nothing to do with the comic.

I'm more interested in PATV, PA Reports, Tycho's blog post, PAX, and Child's Play these days than the actual comic but I still enjoy reading 5 or 6 in a row when I do finally check it.

I think timeless or fucking fictional works better than immortal.

I really haven't seen more than 3 or 4 episodes but I would love to see Rocksteady's take on Batman Beyond as Zaibach mentioned. The caped crusader is already usually high tech and futuristic but it would be fun for him to be even moreso and have the plot in the future... get all deus exxy with it.

1st post two days ago was "Merry Christmas!" Huh
2nd was hey fund my film.

You'd been better off with just the announcement

I like the idea and the passion but doesn't $58,000 seem a bit low?

Also if my calculations are right (you didn't state the length of the film anywhere) it's about 18 minutes? Is that right?
