You missed the point entirely. The developers aren't complaining that they can't afford it. They're worried that, because the consumer version is a "high-end luxury item" (rather than the midrange affordable product that it was supposed to be), consumers won't purchase very many of these units.
The people who were hoping to sell games for these things are up shit creek, because there's gonna be like ten thousand* potential customers, instead of the hundred thousand they expected.
*Numbers pulled outta my ass and for demonstration purposes only.
You know that they're all anti-SJ trolls, right? I'm an SJW, a commie, and a tranny, and I can't recall anytime I saw anyone seriously say "shitlord" since, like, 2012. But for some reason all the anti-SJ people think that's how we talk. It makes them all really easy to spot, to be honest. They're also usually gonna say "privilege" or "trigger" in a way that doesn't make any sense, or claim to be, idk, spatulakin or something.
You know that coffescript gets compiled to JavaScript, right? Like, you didn't think that browsers executed coffeescript natively, I'm sure you wouldn't have commented if you were that clueless.
bud, I hate to tell you this, but you certainly are "allowed to" be vile and say it as often as you like. The rest of us are also "allowed to" find you reprehensible for doing so!
The KKK still exists, as do many neo-nazi groups, and they haven't been arrested. Go join them if you wanna be gross to black people, they'll be happy to have you. But you might not be welcome at thanksgiving dinner anymore.
Your whole bit here is "I should be allowed to be caustic and intentionally inflammatory without anyone telling me I'm bad."
Society has been very clear that using that word, as a white person, is not okay. To choose to use it anyway, and then act surprised when you're called on it, is just ridiculous. Nobody is fooled.
Gee, I wonder. Maybe there's some sort of, idk, historical connection? Like, hear me out, maybe white people were uniquely positioned to enact and enforce anti-black racism for hundreds of years here? In a way that, like, other black people, or native Americans or Asian people etc etc were not.
Using that word as a white person means you're saying "I think my preference to use slurs is more important than those who are hurt by it." The least you can do is avoid one single word.
A good that nearly doubles in value in three months is not a usable currency. Heck, the exchange rate has decreased by 10% in the last 10 days. Somali shillings are more stable than Bitcoin.
Only if you think that talking about issues online *replaces* protesting. Unlike talking about things in real life, which of course is a necessary prelude to protests.
It's the same shit as was happening before, except now that it's #ontheinternet, old people have a new way to decry the youth caring about things. Maybe we should patent it.
Not to mention that obese people generally cost the healthcare system less, as they're (relatively) more likely to die at 60 from a heart attack than 90 from a long protracted battle with cancer.
Oh yes, I totally agree. If it wasn't clear from my post, I think it's absolutely abhorrent that so many people have come to harm due to this decision, and I'm glad that they've finally got their water switched back to the Detroit system.
Because "nearly doubled" isn't a super useful stat for evaluating the relevance of something:
In the affected area, 2.1% of children less than 5 years old had "elevated" blood levels of lead (more than 5ug/dL). After switching to the new water source, 4.0% of children less than 5 had elevated lead levels. Sample size was about 900 both before & after the water switch; so this roughly translates to 18 unexpected cases in the study. The population of Flint is about 100K, with 8% under 5 years old, so we can estimate that somewhere around 160 children in Flint received a high dose of lead as a result of the water switch.

1/1 = 100% :)
There you go then, the probability of life arising spontaneously is 100%.
You don't know much about how buttsex works, do you?

You should think so, though.
Oh hi Johnny, I didn't know it was you.
Yeah, it's you.

Not that anon, but dump your sources here. You ain't doing any favors to your argument by trying to keep your evidence secret.
You know that's a troll, right? They post in like every programming language thread.
You know that coffescript gets compiled to JavaScript, right? Like, you didn't think that browsers executed coffeescript natively, I'm sure you wouldn't have commented if you were that clueless.
"Allowed to"

Food for thought.
First link, not the second.
Nope, you're racist.
Using that word as a white person means you're saying "I think my preference to use slurs is more important than those who are hurt by it." The least you can do is avoid one single word.
NB: just using the word 'nigger' doesn't make a statement racist.
Yeah, it does.
SJW's, on /pol/? Come on. They're calling *him* a SJW on there.
It's not stable now. 3 months ago, 1 BTC = 240 USD. Today, 1 BTC = 420 USD.

So does the television and computer, but you got those anyways.

"The images formed cross-section time-lapse videos showing the damage occurring on the electrodes inside the battery in real-time."
Not sure the editors know what words are.
Personally, I thought of Cowboy Bebop.
