Housing and human rights matter and we should stop spending so much money on bombing houses and killing people.

No comments? You might have just sold me on it.

Thoughtful response. I'm actually all for posting both - having access to original sources is incredibly important, especially in this day and age. Also, while I despise paywalled or ad-heavy slop, I also am not a fan of clicking URL shortened links where what's on the other side could be nefarious (and I certainly won't be the first to click it.) And for the person that will say it... no, I don't care enough to remember which ones I can always trust.

At the marketing circle jerk that is the other game awards, I would expect this. At the Game goddamn developers choice awards, yeah, show some support for the people. OR, make the effort to reach out to the people that made the game - some of them were actually at the GDC! It's not like they dropped off the face of the earth after being laid off.

Imagine a best actor award at the Oscars not having anyone come up because the actor left Miramax to join Universal afterwards - but the fucking guy is sitting in the audience.

What an embarrassment.

Yup, not at first. Mickey's gloves are actually a great example as they come into public domain this year as the first film where he wears those comes up next. (IIRC, INAL, don't go violating copyright law based on a comment on the interwebs.)

Why don't *you *manufacture it in Africa? Set up a factory and export it to Canada and I'll buy some if I see it on my store shelves.

Be the change you want!

How about Black media, which at one point ran every small town newspaper in BC. Pretty sure that was some billionaire but BC based.

Not gonna say they are good because they definitely have shilled for conservatives in the past. I'm just curious where they are today on this scale. Would not surprise me if they were bought south.

*Edit.. not surprising

Re: marketing etc comment at the bottom

This is certainly marketing, whether for the product or the service. However, it's also got an educational component which is why I've enjoyed Slant3D's videos - I have no use for a print farm service but some of the ideas and principles they want to encourage still apply to my hobbyist designs. That said, whenever I talk about 3d printing with friends and family, someone will talk about doing it as a business and I point to a service like this for that.

There is certainly a grey area to balance but I would lump this content in educational and worthy of discussion. And that's probably the biggest thing to encourage with a post here - where is the discussion going when sharing content. As a community grows in volume of posts, stricter standards and forking off communities for different niches need to happen.
