Honestly I don't either. If they make the ads fit the atmosphere of the game and aren't being intrusive, then hey a new revenue stream for them I guess.
This 'small detail', unfortunately, leaves a number of backers who were depending on an offline mode - that they understood all this time they were going to get - basically shit-out-of-luck. That's kind of hard to let go.
Anyway, the real reason single-player offline got ditched is because the game is going to include technology to upload real-life advertising into the game world. It's right there in the EULA.
...and if you ban things that are similar to child pornography couldn't you also ban images of women with small breasts because they evoke thoughts of children? (paraphrase)
Stop that. You're falling into the Just World fallacy. There is no karma, there is no divine retribution, there's no just desserts. There's only us. What goes around doesn't come around, unless people make it happen.
Every defendant is also innocent until proven guilty, so of course they're going to defend themselves. Your method is "we've arrested you, therefore you must be guilty and shouldn't bother with a defense."
Well, with the exception of a random, message-length one-time pad. Technically even that can be brute-forced, but even then you have no way of telling which result is the original message.
Your attacker almost certainly has their weapon ready before you do, even when you have a normal firearm. You go for your gun. Your attacker kills you.
Remember, the instant the government spends money, it vanishes down a black hole, disappearing entirely without any positive effect on the economy. The government paying companies to make things for them in no way creates any value whatsoever, nope. Better to just cut taxes because, as everyone knows, demand follows supply and not the other way around!

It can take a long time to get into court. And while you wait, they'll be ruining your life.
Have GOT to be loving this decision. I hope nobody here on /. holds stock in any of them... XD
... that they're interested to hear peoples' reasons for not voting?
...because over there someone is doing something obviously much worse! That's how it works, right?
More recently, the sleeping 7-year-old girl shot in the head during a no-knock raid in Detroit.
That's why it's good that you read it.

Kind of like Australia, then?
That's a terrible name. What are they, fourteen?
Imagine that. A city council is capable of making both bad and good decisions. How novel!

"Also, there are rumors at KSC..."
Whoa whoa, I'm not sure you guys want the Kerbals to be building rockets for you...
No, see... they get all the protections of common carrier status, but none of the responsibilities. Because reasons. Many billions of reasons.
Your attacker almost certainly has their weapon ready before you do, even when you have a normal firearm. You go for your gun. Your attacker kills you.
... from the pro-gun lobby. Because nothing says reasonable discourse like threatening to kill people.
Canada is not a one-party-consent polity for recording conversations, IIRC.
Guys don't (typically) wear nail-polish...

No fan of the Republicans here, but enforcement is the Executive Branch's bailiwick. :/
Pretty sure you need a massive lobbying brigade in order to qualify for Safe Harbor protections. :P
I've noticed that the "report this kickstarter" links that the support pages refer to no longer exist, either. :p
... you complaining while he plugs his ears and yells LA LA LA LA LA. XD
