Why? That would make it expensive, I'm sure and let's face it. By the time the party hits the third mixed icy drink, no one will give a fuck that the ice is all melted.  why so serious?

I would actually buy a cooler that didn't need ice. That thing is a fucking abomination of hipster shit.

Here's one that costs less and plugs into the car for tailgates: http://www.coleman.com/product/powerchilltrade-40-quart-thermoelectric-cooler/3000001497?contextCategory=8570#.U-J282MY5Tk

I just throw it in the microwave for 5 seconds and it gets soft. Or heat a knife in hot water.

Hey look, a TCG/MMORPG - https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1661433091/eminence-xanders-tales?ref=users  Ohhhhh, I see.

Too bad the card game itself looks extremely boring from the little they show.

Looks like that card game they had in FF8.

Also, not a fan of the art style.

Does look tempting.  Made by the same people who did Planetary Annihilation.  How did that game turn out?

It does look very cool, but I see people complaining that PA is still not feature complete or buggy or something, and expressing worry that PA will stop being updated in favor of this.

I do love both the theme and the graphic style. Hopefully a bunch of dumb dumbs will fund this so I can buy it someday!  awesome, for real

I thought it looked good too, but with a February 2016 release TARGET the game won't likely be playable for long enough that I'd forget about it well before launch.

Much about the actual game apart from bog standard "the sides are asymmetric!"

Giant Robots vs Tentacle Monsters is the bit I liked. I can't imagine they've got much in the way of gameplay for something that's so far away.

The art for Human Resources looks excellent, but so many reviews about PA talk about how the game has been released 'unfinished', requires a lot of time watching YouTube videos to understand how to play and still requires always-on internet access to play despite the original pitch that it would be DRM-free. Although the dev is promising to get to fixing these issues, I think the massively reduced scope for Human Resources (only two sides, multiplayer only as main game, etc) really points out that Uber overpromised and under-delivered with PA.

Canceled my Battle Realms pledge. Game just looks like shit. Poor Fluid :(

Another Battle Realms game? I loved Battle Realms! Let's go see ... oh, a card game. Carry on.

They promised a game with C&C tone and Total Annihilation scale battles!  What more do you want!

But yeah, considering the criticism of their previous game, I'll wait and see on this, despite how very tempting it looks.

It actually showed on my first page of game projects today.  Was too good to not share!  Gotta find something to do until the Hex team figures out how game design works.

Although Sky tops me for sure considering that project is currently over 10X its goal.

Depends on what you want it for. Apparently the router itself was just a scam. Anyway, it's basically a proxy network, with everything that entails. It can prevent tracking, yeah, but if The Man is trying to stop you from downloading german scat videos at work, it's pretty easy for them to just block access to well known proxies.
