Come on... It's a show about games, not programming. All technology in this world is built upon other technology. I know that i personally enjoy the benefits of many ingenious inventions that i just take for granted. I have no idea who invented the tetanus vaccine, (Well, now I have since i looked it up when i translated the word from Danish anyway, apparently it was a guy named Emil von Behring) and if he still were alive and died today, I probably wouldn't notice, and if I did, i probably wouldn't think much about it.LeonBlade wrote:I agree, what a complete dick he doesn't even care what so ever.

He still could have showed respect though, the way he handled it was really disrespectful. He just froze didn't know what to say and said really uneasily "you can read more about that on our website?", when in reality it wasn't there what so ever. He could have at least said something like "A good man, rest in peace" and moved on or something. At least try to be fucking polite about it.ismetteren wrote:Come on...

I think that even mentioning it on a game show, shows respect.
Also, I would presume that the show is scripted, so that one of the guys ask questions and the other guy answers them, to make the dialog more interesting.
I watched it again, and i see your point. The tone of his voice and facial expression seem to say "boring, lets move on". "Rest in peace, lets move on" would have been more appropriate.LeonBlade wrote: He still could have showed respect though, the way he handled it was really disrespectful.

Me either, but if I was on a show, and it was mention, I wouldn't just be like "whatever" in front of 1000 viewers who might love this person.ismetteren wrote:I probably wouldn't notice, and if I did, i probably wouldn't think much about it.
My thoughts exactly.GyroVorbis wrote:Stereotypical ignorant gaming douche who cares only for the product and not the great minds, math, science, or engineering behind them. Sure, it's a "gaming" video, but the attitude of douche extraordinaire on the right was condescending towards ANYBODY'S death, let alone the fucking father of C...
