Kickstart Backer Badge
Me neither. kthxbye. :> Besides, I think it actually would be better to have the icons horizontal instead of vertical, to save precious screenspace. There is enough room to have them next to each other.

RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS
It kinda fits in here, coz it is game news: Many people did the Project Eternity baker stuff here. Now I see that some people got a KS icon and some don't... Anyone can tell me why that is so? If it's related to doing the backing via KS website or PayPal- I did my stuff via KS as well, yet I don't have the icon?

Juridicial abortion for men
Women should never be forced to an abortion, but I agree that men can be screwed pretty hard... Probably the best way would be - as said already - to allow the men to say nay when they find out that they are going to become a father. Still, this is problematic. This can turn into men saying nay right from the beginning, in any case, even if they might want the child / want to be the father, just to protect themself from a possible financial burden (for example, if both split up shortly after or whatever). Then you need people again who will decide if the nay-claim of the male part is valid or not... which can be really problematic and unfair. I mean, how would you want to judge that? Long time ago I was reading about a practice of birth control for men that wasn't a vasectomy and apparently works way better as well. Some stuff will be injected into the spermatic duct, which then destroys all sperm on a nano-level or something like that. It holds on for around 10 years and can be reverted at any time. Also it's said to be pretty cheap, which is the reason why we don't see much advert for it - the industry would lose a lot money if this becomes more common. This, actually, seems to me quite a reasonable method for men who do not want children yet, but might want in the future. Should check out if I can find any more information on that. Haven't read about it since years. /Edit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reversible_inhibition_of_sperm_under_guidance

What you did today
How about not speeding in the first place? Speed limits exist for a reason. I really can't feel sad for people who get fines for that or die in car accidents if they were speeding and lost control over the vehicle. It just sucks donkey balls if other people are dragged into this, only because some idiot overestimated his driving skills... Which happens often enough.

What are you reading?
Got the same feeling. On the one side he is really damn good, but on the other side sometimes I really wish to yell GOD DAMNIT, GET IT DONE ALREADY while reading his stuff. I love the dark tower books, but seriously, I think they could be at least 1000 pages shorter.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt [2014]
For me personally, a sandbox game is where you really can do whatever you want. Like... you want to bake bread like in Ultima Online, then you can. Or you own a house and are able to add furniture to it,... stuff like that. You can't do such things in most "sandbox games from nowadays" like, for example, GTA5. Sure you got the huge open world, and you might have minigames, but other than that there is nothing else to be done. Same with Red Dead Redemption. It's a great game, but it surely is no sandbox game. Yadda-yadda.

What's on the idiot box... Part 2
Watched the first episode of Elementary a while back and rated it as so, so bad. Can't be compared to Sherlock, imo.

RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS
Yup. The first Fallout3 DLC retconned the ending of FE3 so you survived. It also changed it so if you re-played the game from the start, there were options so you wouldn't die. It was Broken Steel, the last DLC, not the first. The first one was a horrible corridor shooter. I never played any other ME2 DLCs and had no real problem with following the events in ME3. Though, it might also be because the story was stupid anyway... no idea.

Errant Gamer critique of Stanley Parable
Maybe I should try again to play Far Cry 3, because I never noticed such things.

I am wondering if this is still true, though. Because I can't remember when I played a game the last time that required a dlc for more information on the main story or something like this. Some games have pre-order dlc which add to the games content, but this is most of the time just minimal stuff that probably could be ignored easily as well. Like the pretty useless armor pre-order dlcs from New Vegas, etc.
