Our late donation drive

So our usual disclaimer, fansubbing is a hobby for our group. We don't do it for profit and most of us have jobs and other stuff going on. But if you don't mind a little wait and enjoy our style, we'd love it if you can help offset some of the costs of this hobby

Our goal this time is $662:

  • 135 for a seedbox
  • 240 for the server
  • 247 for source material
  • 93 for computer replacement parts
  • -52 from donations throughout the year

Anyway, I'll leave this up for a week. If we make it, we make it. Otherwise it's no big deal. You can donate from our Paypal link, but e-mail if you want to pay using a different method and I can see if I can arrange something. Thank you for reading!

 

Book recommendation: Ready Player One by Ernest Cline

Submitted by takenoko on Thu, 12/12/2013 - 04:34

So I just tore through Ready Player One by Ernest Cline. If you guys are anything like me, you will love this book. It will speak to you in the secret language of references and murmurs of things so alien to normal people that it may as well be a foreign language. It should appeal to you if...
-You like video games
-You like 80s pop culture
-You have an interest in Internet culture
-You like stories that take place in a semi-post apocalyptic society where people fight over basic necessities (like the Internet!)

It might especially resonate with you (maybe painfully so?), if you're a person like me who probably spends more time online than interacting with real friends
