Humble Indie Bundle (Link) →
I feel obligated to tell everyone about this.
Choose what you donate. If it’s less than $7.62, you get all five games in the bundle. If it’s $7.62 or more, you get all five games in the last bundle as well.

I can’t wait to get on the DT staff next semester to try to help correct the staggering amount of errors in each edition.
Skimming this issue alone I’ve counted:
9 Formatting errors.
10 Grammar/Spelling errors.
15 Examples of (sometimes very) bad writing or ridiculous statements.
8 Punctuation errors.
While a few authors have well-written articles with no errors, the sheer number...

Crashed.
Tonight went from the loneliest night of my life, sitting crashed in a ditch, trying to compose myself, to a relaxing time chatting with a cop and my father, waiting for a tow truck.
What a long sentence.

It seems like there would be a lot of lag between sending your input to their servers, them rendering it, and an HD video stream coming back to your computer. Still an interesting idea.
