the Nation's First Video Gaming Arena

In the 1980s, we called these "video game arcades ". A typical example was the arcade portrayed in TRON:

Okay, it just doesn't sound right to my American ears just like Lego as a plural doesn't.

Other nouns that are the same in singular and plural are okay, like "moose" and "aircraft". I just never took a "maths" class. I took lots of math classes though.

This song just popped into my head:

An almost perfect hack has been found already by clever french gendarmerie many years ago
I know I know, vid. or it didn't happen...

It's not that it's too hard, it's that it's too creepy for most people.

Tesla built one.

That said, consider the matching prices, and maintenance. With a robot arm, you have to maintain the robot arm. An inductive charger is at least solid state. You need some sensors for both the robot and the inductive charger, but the sensors for the robot arm are going to be more complicated, sensitive, and subject to breakage. With the inductive charger, you can build it INTO the road, build it so that it can be run over. What happens if somebody runs into the robot arm cable? I've seen enough stuff hit in parking lots. Take a look some time. Odds are that if it is in a parking lot and sticks up, it WILL be hit eventually. In a lot of them many times a year. One greenhouse owner has a state-mandated "watch out for pedestrians!" sign in his parking lot in the pedestrian zone, on a concrete block between the lanes. He runs a video camera livestream of it, and has a collection of video from people hitting it. He has to go out regularly to drag it back to its proper spot.

In addition, if we're looking at quick charge boosts to give an electric taxi or bus that extra hour of driving to make it through the day at regular pick-up points, fast connection and disconnection is essential. It took the tesla robot about 30 seconds to hook in and start charging. An inductive pad can be doing the same in under a second.

This was covered in the dystopian future in Black Mirror S01E02. Forced to watch ads from your box.

Ugh. Do not want.

The CEO of MoviePass was also covered (well, lampooned) by College Humor in one of their funnier sketches:
MoviePass CEO: PLEASE DON'T CANCEL.

If you believe the media has a right wing bias, you are delusional. There is no way a right wing media would have highlighted every mistake Trump has ever made, and downplayed every mistake Obama made during his "scandal free" eight years in office. Hell, look at the attacks on Trump which included pictures of kids in cages from the Obama years, which had been basically ignored previously.

do they have a decent hardware firewall in place now or is it still a shitshow?

It really wasn't in the first place. The CAN bus is secured, here's a video of the hackers explaining the layout (Explanation of the layout starts at 9:04, but the entire video is interesting if you want to see how well Tesla has secured their cars).

The "shitshow" you say is just the hackers being able to issue commands which you could already do remotely.

Actually, Manafort and Cohen both been convicted of cheating on their taxes in cases unconnected to Trump and his campaign.

Cohen was ALSO convicted of campaign finance violations. And lying to congress (about the campaign).

Though to my knowledge you are correct that Manafort's convictions were unrelated to Trump's campaign.

Wow! That's the exact opposite of what you said! There was no underlying crime of "collusion" or "conspiracy", AND there was no evidence that Trump attempted to obstruct any investigation even if there had been one.

Actually, except for the Manafort bit, the AC was fairly on-base your counter is either irrelevant or overblown.

The AC didn't claim collusion, he claimed that Trump encouraged Russian attacks on TV, which is true.

As for the obstruction charge, there's definitely evidence. What Mueller basically said is that he didn't find evidence of collusion in the campaign, and if you don't have proof of the crime that was being investigated it's harder to prove that efforts to kill that investigation were obstruction of justice.

But he explicitly says that it doesn't exonerate Trump, and the AG could decide otherwise (though he naturally won't of course).

And while we're at it, since the Trumpists are so fond of playing this game, lets point out another few things.

1) Mueller established that Manafort lied after agreeing to cooperate, but didn't seem to try for additional info. Manafort had some very fishy ties to Russian oligarchs connected to Putin and very easily could have had more info.
2) Mueller doesn't seem to have tried questioning Trump Jr and Kushner about the Trump tower meeting.
3) Despite the fact there's judicial precedent to subpoena a sitting President for questioning Mueller never tried. Instead he negotiated a list of questions and let Trump and his lawyers craft answers.
4) Papadopoulos was bragging about the emails that Russia stole to the Greek Foreign Minister, do you really think he didn't blab about it to other members of the campaign? Who did he tell? How did they use that information?
5) You had a Republican investigator, reporting to a Republican supervisor, reporting to a Republican AG, investigating a Republican President. I'm not saying that Mueller was trying to cover anything up, but he certainly seems to have treated Trump with kid gloves.

Some people go two ways as well, at least that's what he said (@0:25): https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

Riiight, that is why on the Joe Rogan podcast last week the CEO of Twitter and his lawyer admitted they had "blocked the bots" of a guy that admitted to the NYT to using fake Russian bots to try to swing an election in Alabama while refusing to block the person actually making the bots while at the same time banning people who had used the "learn to code" meme?

You really ought to watch the podcast as its quite eye opening and more than a little scary how blatant companies like Twitter are when it comes to pushing a narrative. If you are hard left? You can dox, you can threaten people's lives, call for violence, perfectly okay, if you are right? A meme can get you suspended or banned...which is exactly why places like 8chan exist. Remember for there to be actual free speech? It has to include ALL speech, just not those that agree with you, and sadly we are seeing with the big media giants like FB and Twitter only one voice is welcome there, the one that talks and thinks like they do.

Fox News is too big with the old folk, but Peterson's set him self up as a kind of father figure to a large number of disenfranchised young men.

I didn't like the guy when I first saw him but had a really, really hard time articulating why until I saw this and also this. This too.

See here.

For those that don't wanna bother with a long video, the article is about what the author calls "stochastic terrorism". Bruce Sterling touched on it in his novel "Distraction".

It works like a sales pipeline. You start out with PewDiePie spouting white supremacy "full the lulz" and for cheap publicity. A subset of his viewers "graduate" to harder stuff like Ben Shapiro and Sargon of Arkad, then on to Laura Southern and finally to stuff like the Unite the Right rally.

The New Zealand shooter ending his video with "subscribe to PewDiePie " because he's trying to put kids into that pipeline. Put a few hundred million in and eventually terrorists come out.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hYHwkIuEMo Louis Rossman sums it up perfectly.

No liberal or indeed, any other faction had anything to do with stopping a second vote on the same motion.

To be specific, the single person responsible for this is John Bercow, the Speaker of the House. He ruled that the second parliamentary vote on Brexit was allowable, because there were substantive changes to the proposed deal - but a third parliamentary vote would not be allowable unless there were further changes, sufficient to make it (again) a substantively different proposal. He did this with reference to Erskine May - the bible of parliamentary procedure - and to precedent dating back to 1604, just to make it absolutely clear that he was following the letter of the law, rather than advocating for any particular faction. If you're interested, check out the clip.

Note that, if there is sufficient support for the existing deal, parliament could hold a vote to suspend this particular rule, then hold a new vote on the deal despite his ruling. So he isn't overruling the democratic will of parliament.

The factions that benefit from his ruling are, I think, the extremes on both sides: it is now more likely that the UK will remain in the EU or leave without a deal, rather than leaving with a negotiated semi-detached status. But I really do think that he has ruled fairly on this point, rather than in support of one or another faction.

By promoting psychological stability and education in the masses so that these few never have any reasonable amount of political power. Instead of, say, amassing enough idiots that their ideal candidate gets elected to be the most powerful man in the world. A few powerless nut-cases will not be the end of us. But if there are enough of them that they RALLY together, to make a political movement. If there are enough of them that they can drown out the voice of reason, then we have a problem.

We need to teach people critical thinking. Don't be a sucker.

And that goes for you too. If you're honestly suggesting that we get rid of free anonymous connectivity.... that's downright anti-democratic. And you're being taken advantage of if someone has convinced you to give it up.

It used "fluidics" IIRC, and was prone to misplace some data. https://www.youtube.com/watch?... And in Gordon Dickson's Tactics of Mistake there was an aide to a major character who served by being able to recall data he'd memorized. Arguably no big deal but it is a SF novel that dealt with people with exceptional abilities. If we're going to mention mentats (who were more about interpreting data) then I guess we can mention this guy.

leaving the EU is objectively a better decision than staying, from an economic, cultural, and game-theory point of view.

Economically? So why the are the overwhelming majority of businesses and unions remainers?
Game theory? That was an attempt to look smart, was it? It failed.

But mostly, the argument that "not enough correct information got out" and "people would have chosen differently with better information" is completely false.

How do you know? Plenty were swayed by the money for the NHS slogan on the bus, this was admitted to be false before the count was even finished.

Making them "not scared" by talking or presenting information or reasoning simply won't work. You can only make people "not scared" by making them safer.

Not true. People's perception of risks is often wildly wrong. Though some people also don't seem to grok the difference.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

Take your country, look at gun ownership. You think it makes you safer. And yet you're more likely to be killed by a gun than someone living in Ireland during the troubles.

No one will admit that the UK could voluntarily implement all the agreements it currently has with the EU - such as unrestricted travel between nations [...] different-culture people are everywhere.

Those things sort of contradict each other, don't they? No point chucking all the Polackomanians out if they can just come back, is there?

Not sure that Stallman is fully versed in the relevant politics...

so you're building up strawmen to attack me.

Fascism is when all public institutions are brought under a single, centralized control. That's not just the economy. It's the Economy, Gov't, Religion, Schools, Hospitals, etc, etc.

I'm not going to pretend I can explain it terribly well, so see here and also here. Look up Shaun on YouTube while you're at it.

Why does your post remind me of this...

This is just whatabboutery on behalf of Hillary Clinton without mentioning her by name. No one else has set up their own private server, used it extensively & exclusively for electronically communicating the highest levels of classified information, or destroyed huge amounts of evidence while under active FBI investigation. There is no comparison whatsoever between Hillary and any Republican - Republicans, by the way, who Hillary blasted for using "secret email" accounts a mere two years before setting up her own secret email server. So she was a much worse hypocrite, much earlier, than anyone who chanted "lock her up" but now doesn't care about the Kushner's.

And that's not the end of the BS. There's the nonsense that Hillary's emails were ok because they weren't marked classified. If Hillary got an email from a CIA section chief in Japan about the state of North Korea's nuclear weapons program, that information didn't have to be stamped as classified to be treated as such - it was inherently classified. A fact Hillary knew full well as she received special training on handling such information.

Then there's the line that it wasn't that bad because Hillary didn't have any intent to mishandle or misuse any information. But intent is completely irrelevant to being charged with handling classified evidence - just ask Kristian Saucier. He was prosecuted by the same DOJ that whitewashed Hillary's actions, despite the DOJ agreeing that he had no intention of misusing the selfies he took on Navy submarines. They prosecuted him anyway, because he had classified information on his unsecured, unauthorized phone. Hillbots, try and explain why she shouldn't be prosecuted for her unsecured, unauthorized server when far lesser people have done time in federal pound-me-in-the-ass penitentiaries.

Last but not least, there's the destruction of tens of thousands of pieces of evidence while under active FBI investigation. Dembots have been cheering Mueller for indictments over process crimes, like lying to the FBI. Just what do you think St. Robert would have done if Manafort or Papadopolis had deleted 30,000+ emails while he was actively investigating them. They'd get decades for obstruction of justice, even if that was the only charge he went to trial with.

I'm a pilot. I fly a plane with an autopilot. I also drive a Tesla with their "autopilot".

The very expensive aircraft autopilot flies great. I can be hands-off the controls for extended periods of time, read a book, browse Facebook (hurrah for GoGo :), etc. Do I? Hell no! An aircraft autopilot has no clue what other aircraft are doing. TCAS might see another nearby aircraft, maybe it won't. I keep my hands on or near the controls, I look out the window, and I scan the instruments - all the time. Which is pretty much what I do in the Tesla. The big difference is that the Tesla actually does a pretty decent job of reacting to other cars. Odd lane markings and construction zones do freak it out from time to time. I have had the Tesla alert me to an unsafe traffic or road condition and tell me to take over - in a flurry of beeps and on-screen alerts. Freaks me out every time. I wish the autopilot in the airplane would do that - instead it just shuts off, throws a warning light if I'm lucky, and the plane wanders off somewhere in the sky until I pull head of my my ass. I probably hand-fly the airplane more than I hand-drive the Tesla - on cross country trips. Taxiing around on the ground is a bit like driving a Tesla to the grocery store - an annoying fact of life to tolerate only until I get where I belong - out on the road, or up in the air, where the massively automated systems not only make my life easier, they make it safer as well.

You people bitching about how dangerous the Tesla autopilot is are just spoiled, bitchy little meat bags of self-loading cargo. You have no concept of automation, risk, and capability, you see the autopilot and cry that it's not perfect. You all need to fly from LA to NYC in a Ford Trimotor, or drive between them in a model T. Keep a spare set of points and a condenser in the glovebox. The magneto on the Trimotor's radial engines probably uses the same points as the Model T. Make sure you can change the points and gap them in the middle of nowhere, because that's where they'll fail. You'll be flying for about 20 hours, and you'll make about 8 stops for fuel and maintenance. The Model T will take a wee bit longer, at least 60 hours, with modern roads, unless you have to stop and fix the engine. A model 3 can make that drive in 50 hours, and you won't have to change the points once.

I know. This YouTube video explains everything about Musk and how he affects people: https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

Joe Rogan interview with Dorsy and Vijaya pretty much confirmed all the conspiracy theories. Go watch it, or just watch clips/highlights if you are still skeptical.
Our society cannot function when political views are actively suppressed by private entities with clear agenda. Social media has to be regulated as common carriers or we will not have any free speech left.

Funny how that's modded flamebait. Only to those invested in censoring, maybe.

Furthermore, the Project Veritas videos of undercover interviews with Twitter employees was also very revealing. I don't need to trust O'Keefe when the candid video says it all.

Also municipalities should not ever be prohibited from providing access themselves.

This is the only real issue here. Everybody would have broadband if they were allowed to build it, and with minimal, if any subsidies.

The closed market is the cause of many of our problems. It's very "communist" to let big corporations make the rules for government to enforce. It just looks different because the Politburo wears Armani, instead of that drab green/gray.

this is part of the broader "left wing media bias" narrative that the right wing has worked hard to establish.

For anyone who remembers what came out about MSNBC and Bernie after 2016, or pays attention to the coverage of him now vs the establishment candidates like Beto, Biden & Harris, or remembers when the media closed ranks to promote the Iraq War or the 2008 Bank Bailout you know the media's bias is hard right when it counts: economics.

Hell, the media was center-right on Gay Marriage until around 2014 or so. Go watch them grill Bernie on Medicare for All while giving Biden a pass on his attacks on Social Security. All this before Sinclair media bought out every local TV station.

And we shouldn't be surprised about the media's biases when it comes to the economy or the stuff that really matters. Look at who owns them. Always, always, always follow the money.

It never fails to see a Republican throw out all of their "supposed beliefs" to get back at someone because their little ego's are hurt.

Just like how the republicans are all for the 2nd until they see black folks with guns... but that is all good.

Said the "progressives" cheering on the Mueller witch hunt.

That's about to admit was all about NOTHING.

I'm getting popcorn! The sight of "progressive" exploding heads will be epic.

DING DONG THE WITCH IS DEAD!!!!

Monty Python was mocking the far right, not flirting with it.

Drink! Amimojo throws out subjective labels (mocking vs flirting) without proper definition!

(reminds me of how he accuses other people using terms like "SJW" without a clear definition)

They didn't promote people on the far right like PDP did.

Drink! Amimojo infers motivation out of results!

This, btw, is also used by Jordan Peterson - another right wing sweetheart. He made some argument that maybe Hitler wasn't a racist if you look at the results of his actions (he made a lot of mistakes and made Germany lose! Maybe he MEANT to make Germany lose!)

I'm not kidding. Here's a video explaining it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

What is good enough for you to denounce a tragedy in your name?

Is this? This?

the crown of largest number of subscribers on Youtube is not worth being advertised by a mass murdering gunman during a live stream of a shooting" and ask Youtube to either remove any mention of number of subscribers from his public facing account.

The entire subscriber count between PDP and TSeries is a meme and is about what YouTube is and whether it is more for corporations or for people like how it started out. People that don't even care about PDP subscribe to him just because of that. Hell, even Blizzard comedy fanfic is jumping on because as they say "As the whole event has been happening, I thought it was pretty cool how so many of us have came together for a common cause, for the YouTube community; For creators not corporations. " T-Series is a polished corporation with corporate money backing. PDP is just some dude with a camera.

The NZ terrorist understood meme culture, the internet, and the media and knew that name dropping PDP would cause people to point the finger at him to fan the flames of the culture war to start a civil war in the US.

Go fuck yourself you Boeing shill!

Cdreimer left /. after 20+ years and posted 188+ videos in 2018. His trolls are still butthurt that he left them alone with APK.

The thing to do for him: post more videos Mwwwwahahahahahhaahha:)

right here

For those who don't want to be bothered watching the video (or can't stand Cult of Dusty, which I can't really blame you for), PDP had a large number of alt-right personalities he was following and after the New Zealand shooter he emptied his followers list.

PDP may or may not actually believe any of the things the alt-right does. But he absolutely uses the movement and it's fans to his advantage. The controversial things he's done have almost exclusively appealed to the alt-right.

Like a lot of YouTubers he's figured out that the alt-right is a powerful engine for increasing views and ad revenue. But feeding off that isn't a one way street. He's normalizing and legitimizing the worst aspects of that community. And not just him. Other YouTubers like Sargon of Arkad, JonTron and Ben Shapiro are doing the same. Go look up some videos from Contrapoints, Three Arrows and hbomberguy on the subject. They're far better than anything I could type.

There's an entire engine on YouTube, Twitter and Facebook dedicated to exploiting angry, bitter, jobless young men for ad revenue and Pateron donations. I'm bloody sick of it. It's dangerous as fuck. Eventually a real demagogue will come along and organize them into brown shirts.

He literally burned a paper model of Trump in effigy. This makes him "alt-right"?

He made some joke videos akin to the guy who's dog raised its paw at a Hitler video. This was in response to continued media labelling him as Nazi / Racist / Alt-Right. So he agreed and amplified in a harmless trolling way. He disavowed the claims then sarcastically ended the vid with a brief clip of him wearing a military uniform and nodding to a random Hitler rant (which was about bankers). This type of response is known as "agree and amplify" or "reductio ad absurdum", but the left ran with the "See! he's really a Nazi!"

-----

Now, that was a discussion for the normies. Bros, we know the truth. Disney is full of pedos. Pewds had his eyes opened to this while they courted him as a personality. So he destroyed his reputation on purpose rather than sell his soul to the devil: We all know to get famous in Hollywood or music industry you have to let them video you killing and/or raping a kid. Pewds became redpilled. The media lashout is because the pedocracy is against him... and also, because Hitler is Pewdiepie.

Comcast doesn't give a fuck

Statistics, logistics, cladistics seem to me
To have a common theme scientifically,
Economists, biologists, with PhD degrees,
They all need some proof of their theories.
A letter is the key, you'll see clearly,
Not B nor G nor V -- but it's the P !

There's no values like P-values
Like no values I know
Think of something that is not worth proving,
An hypothesis that everyone calls null,
If your P is too large to reject it
Then your experiment is rather dull.

There's no values like P-values,
Especially when they are low,
Don't be sad if your P's over point-O-five,
Just try again with samples twice the size,
Everything is possible, just trust in me:
Put your faith in the P.

The F test, the Z test, the chi-square and the T
And other cryptic terminology
Anova, regression, tests distribution-free,
They all need some sort of guarantee.
So if you find a tiny effect size
The P-value will be a good disguise.

There's no values like P-values,
The frequentist's hero,
When you get that data modeling feeling
But results you have are not a lot,
You will need some stats that are appealing
To show the journals your work is hot!

There's no values like P-values
Especially when they're low
Don't be sad if your P's over point-O-five,
Just try again with samples twice the size
Everything is possible, just trust in me:
Put your faith in the P!

A few things. 1080 Tis are substantially more powerful than 1060s (ie, around 4x as powerful). Having said that, yes, new 1060s have kept their value. Used 1060s (ie, one you bought at launch) sell at around 75% of their launch price. I'd tend to argue this has a lot less to do with slowing down improvement rate and the shift of Nvidia to supporting miners and all the talk of AI. Ie, it's more a conscious choice of reinvestment much more than a development wall like has hit CPUs.

For example, you bring up quad core CPUs. The i5-2400 is a well known, Q1 2011 CPU that still performs very well by today's standards. In comparison the high-end GTX 590 from 2011 is pretty comparable to the GTX 760 which is about half the frame rate of a GTX 1060 from 2016. Meanwhile, a 1080 Ti is double again that. By raw numbers you see the same sort of thing with CPU benchmarks, but you don't see the same with actual frame rates because that's usually heavily GPU limited.

Oh, and Crysis is a great example of the opposite of this. Crysis is rather single threaded limited which makes it very IPC bound. It's one of the few games. Even then i5-2400 to i5-8400 with a better GPU still only shows a marginal boost in frame rate (like 55 to 65). Feel free to look on Youtube (kind of got sick of finding citations). Having said that, yea, we're to the point now that quad core for most games is the norm. Funny enough, a high end Core 2 Quad still works pretty well considering.

tl;dr - I don't really disagree with some of what you're saying, but the time scale of CPU vs GPU advancement is different lead by different factors. CPU prices are a mixed bag, GPU prices have been inflated by mining, and Nvidia having the edge hasn't really been pushing itself. I'm holding out for AMD to perhaps flip the table on Nvidia's complacency.
