What’s a gimmick to you is useful to your parents. The more they’re talking their phones is less time they’re asking you to do things for them. That is if they actually learn how use the damn thing.

It’s not just Vlad who sounds like they’re saying ‘free’ instead of ‘three’, it’s everyone with his accent. Just like how in America southerners do not pronounce the number ‘four’ correctly.

Nah, the money Rhode Island fronted on them basically covered payroll for their employees during the duration of development. On top of that you got licensing, cost of equipment, IT support, office supplies, etc. Companies burn through money like it’s nothing. Especially when you don’t have any reliable revenue streams. They didn’t have enough money coming in to give them the credit to sustain revenues not meeting their own forecasting. Shit’s pretty fucking stupid honestly. You’re just gambling at that point.

Indie pricing killed the publisher star. Most people aren’t going to pay fifty or sixty bucks for a game coming through a publisher when they can get the same amount entertainment from something that costs a fourth of that. Which is great for consumer pocketbooks, but frankly only shifts centralized power from big publishers to marketplace owners. Whatever that’s going to lead to over the next few years.

You’re overreacting a bit. The criticism people are offering up is of the Haredi community and not Judaism as a whole. Most just don’t know the names of the different groups, and just sort of assume Orthodox Jews and “Ultra-Orthodox” as they say are interchangeable. The Haredim do deserve of a lot this criticism. They’ve got a lot of real problems that need some serious address, and just blindly backing them up isn’t helping anyone.

If you go to Israel and ask someone how they feel about the Haredim odds are they’ll say some crazy vile shit that put any of these comments to shame. Jews and Palestinians can find come ground in wanting to kick their ass.

The Haredi community has some serious abuse problems. Especially in Israel where it isn’t uncommon for women or small girls to be spat on for wearing short sleeves, or for them to strictly adhere to religious keeping the actual police out. Even when you’re talking about kids getting molested or raped. That’s really not uncommon to go totally unreported, and even if it is about saving the community from public shame it’s not doing those kids any good.

Where in this article does it suggest that Jews kill Christian new-Borns on the ever of Passover, or do you not actually know where the term Blood Libel came from?

Should’ve gone with Haredim as ultra-orthodox can be considered offensive.

Not them specifically obviously, but they do support or lack of choice in the matter.

your own people when they did nothing to you
Except take away our freedom of religion at birth, and left us with confusion as to what we should call ourselves if not Jews. Because some of us from Germany and Poland are pretty clearly not German or Polish.

Those playing the current version game are few and far between. Because you’re only 5% of everyone.

You really don’t think they watched what happened to Turntable’s port after they gave it exposure? That shit got absolutely manhandled by this community. You guys were like Soviet gymnastics coaches. Grabbing Turntable by the foot violently twisting into position after landed incorrectly breaking their ankles. You guys are seriously going to destroy TheVerge’s relationship with developers before you know it. If this entitlement trip becomes a habit who’s going to want their app featured? Besides the dudes playing the latest version circuit of course.

I say design concept because Themes in android aren’t really Themes. They’re baked in UIs, but then you also got themes with a lowercase ‘t’. Which make it so you can implement styles without calling them individually.

Most apps unfortunately are turn-and-burns. Designed for keywords rather than something the developer is truly passionate about, so they’re not going to be doing shit anyways. From a business perspective that’s cool but morally it’s really not. Google really, really needs to work on streamlining the design process. Because just getting things to look right takes the majority of your time, and baking in a new UI for the fans isn’t helping anyone.
Now you’ve got the early adopters in near mutiny. Hanging developers for crimes Google committed. I understand the anger because they dropped quite a bit of money, and you got Google dropping PR crap like this. Real useful with all those links to documentation and example code. It sucks because now all the time I could be spending on implementing cool new features is being expended on learning how to implement Holo as a design concept. Cause if I don’t my months of work will be brutalized.

They’re just trying to not admit to the game while playing it.
