I have to agree with all that despite I was trying to be more academic than personal. Still, agreed. The kinds of women who accuse men of “mansplaining” are generally undesirable for a host of reasons prior to picking up the self-destructive behaviors that further separate them from traditional...

More death of Star Wars: https://youtube.com/shorts/J1h6VPLN8fo?si=WNgnEEOkOAYlMEvu

Nah, I think you’re having delusions. Luke is nothing like your feeble mind is pretending. And this is the biggest problem with today’s youth—they think anything coming out their mouth must be right because Mommy says so. OTOH, we have all of reality, that clearly demonstrates Luke Skywalker is...

Just to be clear, and fair to Daisy Ridley, there’s nothing about her performance nor public face that offends. Just because we’re referring to the latest trilogy of movies as hers doesn’t mean anyone blames her for the stench in the films. Her acting is good. I’m not personally attracted to her...

Well you could try reading. That helps with the ignorance condition. You are projecting your vast ignorance onto the issue when just thirty seconds searching online will convince you that: a) “modern feminism co-opts its ideals from black and queer feminist theories”, and b) “modern feminism is...

So unverified word is, that Disney has parked the Daisy Ridley Star Wars project for now. That’s a significant advance over the hot mess made of public relations over the Ridley issue. I guess we’ll see what we see. There was a statement by Disney about a month ago, that they were now...

“Of course she’s going to pick an activist with no fictional film making experience, To direct a sci-fi action movie with a nine figure budget, In one of the most beloved franchises in the world, at a time when the franchise, at a time when the franchise is at its lowest period in history...

Anyone here remember “Pong”?

View: https://youtu.be/T98HUSQbGCc?si=2DGn3Eng2_bt45G8 Yeah so, up till now I’ve pretty much defended attempts for Disney to turn around their horrible failure with the Star Wars property, always hoping the best. Some attempts were pretty good. I still like Mando and Ahsoka. I think I am...

I was actually quoting Indy, but yeah.

Quantum computers use ultra cold, but normal ones too. I know because I saw it in TimeCop. It was on the internet so it must be true.

Clark Defense Systems has been listed as making a jet pack for 7 or 8 years now. Just have to hope it comes in game. That is the same provider for the UEE marines armor.

I wonder whether huge screen solutions aren’t doomed by VR headsets to always be second place. As soon as the VR can tell you where to put your fingers for a glass cockpit, display screens will just be wasted real estate.

PC cooling solutions assume the thermal conductivity of the processor’s plastic case is sufficient, but that may not be true with all possible overclocking. Because engineers assume this is true, we never see active refrigeration on home systems. In theory, a Freon or other gas expansion system...

I’m not an expert but IIRC, clock speed is mostly limited by temperature. If you cool the entire system component by component, odds seem fair you can run them faster. They must have hit the thermal limit with their last SSD and decided this is what they need to run faster. Since SC benefits...

That was fabulous. I have one of these current gen light sabres. Hollow poly tube and super bright led makes for very fast and resilient. Makes all the sounds. Press a button and select from 7 brilliant colors. Smack it and it flashes like blades clashing. Mine has a shorter blade but it was...

Fair enough. So to return to the more central issue, let me ask “what do we actually want from AI?” Certainly there are blessings but I think the cursings are far greater. There’s no way to stop this and as Elon Musk notes, it’s probably too late anyway. Google teaches their AI to lie...
