Here's one good use for it.

If you want to know a bit more of their train of thought, here's a bit for you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

There is no agreed upon "number" of countries in the world, because not everyone agrees that everyone else is a country. You counting Taiwan? Palestine (Gaza and West Bank together or separate)? Is Crimea still a country or not? The Russians might say no, but others disagree.

Found the same video on youtube from 2010.... had no idea /. was going this far back for "current news"

Your analogy is right on, but tell me it's a waste of energy to produce this sound: https://www.youtube.com/watch?... ;-)

"Until you understand the whole problem, don't fuck around with anything"

Too late. We are already geoengineering. These hurricanes were man made. TFA is trying to get funding for more of it, and make public the shit we're already doing in secret.

It depends on whether the same grid refines oil to make gasoline. Switching to Electric might reduce total electrical needs because refining a gallon of gas, in addition to other inputs, requires between four and six kilowatts. And EV like the hyundai ionic uses less than 300 watts/km. so that corresponds to perhaps as much as 20 kilometers, and a small three wheel EV to go further still. Robert Llewellyn's Volt for Oil puts it nicely. Original sources for this information is the Oil companies themselves in various regulatory filings.

I'm sure they'll get rid of them soon.

Nope and nope. Don't panic. Be happy.

"You might still have a chance against Google if you kicked out your UX team and just started doing some basic engineering."

That's the problem. After the witch hunting SJWs ousted their CEO over political wrongthink, most of the peaks in actual talent have been "equalized" out. Now those who are left are far less competent as a result. It's easier to remove features and move UI things around than actually do the work that matters.

SJWs ruin everything. Silicon Valley is doomed, it has always been doomed since it's a not-so-secret wing of the military industrial complex & US Army PSYOPs playground. You have been warned. Plan for its demise and begin rebuilding now. There's stirrings of an "alt-tech" alliance, and even talk of creating their own registrars devoid of the political shenanigans that plagues Big Tech today.

Obligatory 40 Year Old Virgin scene.

2019 is also the stated target date to stop literally half its population from crapping in the streets and all the accompanying health problems. Probably more important to work on that than electric cars.

Neither have I. Remember kids once upon a time there were commercials like this. You never trust anyone who's only in it for the money. That's our Free Enterprise Capitalism lesson for the day. You're welcome.

Right, but even if it's not a hologram in the true technical sense, in the looser sense I meant the idea of projecting a 3D image into 3D space.

What all these supposed "holographic" projectors really do is project a 2D image of a 3D scene or object either onto something (screen, fog/mist stream) or reflect it off of a mirror or glass surface, or use VR/AR to fool the eye into seeing something in 3D space, which really isn't there - it's on your retina.

The whole idea of "projecting" a hologram is flawed because air is transparent to light. You have to have something to diffuse it, whether it's dust or fog or whatever, there's no way to "draw" on empty air. The only thing I've seen that comes close is this plasma emitter display which can actually project an image into 3D space without you having to look through a glass plate. It's pretty rudimentary, though.

John Mulaney has an outstanding story about "What's New Pussycat" and the best dinner he's ever had.

The thing was always a scam (or at least a terrible idea). AvE did a great video on it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

I sold the bitcoins I had invested in juicero and put them all into the joose loosener.

Was clever and original enough when is started, for a few years, back in the 90s. Now? An over-priced Disneyland for Marketing Execs going through their second childhood or third divorce...

Meh. It was contrived and cliche even then.

Quiznos got it right in their fucking hilarious sendup of Burning Man.

LMGTFY
It seems like the answer is yes

Here's the video webcast, in case you missed it. (22min) Does not include 2nd stage coverage, since it's classified.

For a good visual example, watch the Veritasium video on the Magnus effect. Not only does it explain the effect using a spinning basketball dropped off a dam, but it also has pictures of what these ships will look like with rotor sails.

"So how did Americans end up with a national ID number that isn't one and a card terribly unfit to identify?"

Now that we know happy music makes people more productive, how will this get incorporated into the open office? I'm assuming my looping Journey "Don't Stop Believing" over and over.

"How about piping in some Tom Jones music. That always cheers me up!"

Who the fuck would be surprised

Apparently anyone who does not remember "2008", when Google cars first started routinely collecting 3D laser range and imaging via SICK laser scanners.

I prefer Human Music myself. Helps remind me that life is just a game.

The wall has to get built and this has to stop for 10 years while we repair all this damage. End chain migration. End anchor babies. End DACA and the like. End illegals voting in our elections. This has to end now. After 10 years use a restrictive selective extreme vetting point system.

Welcome my son, welcome to the machine

"happy" music

Do you mean like this?

No thanks, not a big fan of Simon and Garfunkel.

Try this instead.

I prefer easy listening myself

Looking at the video of the Softwere robotic system in operation, I don't see how sewing custom clothes that way would be significantly any harder than standard ones for that particular system.

It's not like we are printing clothes now with web presses -- clothes production has been a labor intensive custom operation producing varying quality. See: "Robots threatens Bangladeshi garment workers"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

But even if the delta was, say, 10X (or more) between custom clothes and mass-produced clothes, if the cost after full automation was so low (including automating material production), then many people might choose the $1.00 custom shirt over the $0.10 mass produced shirt in the same way so many people buy custom coffee at Starbucks when it could be so much cheaper to get standard coffee from one big pot.

Also, when the cost (to all parties, including the customer's own time) of choosing, ordering, boxing, and delivering (and maybe returning) an item begins to significantly outweigh the cost of the item, then consumers may tend to purchase more expensive higher quality items given the incremental difference is not that big a percentage of the total delivered cost.

I agree with you though it is a bit of a chicken and egg thing where the market still needs to get proven along with the reliability of the technology.

Also, when the cost (to all parties, including the customer's own time) of choosing, ordering, boxing, and delivering (and maybe returning) an item begins to significantly outweigh the cost of the item, then consumers may tend to purchase more expensive higher quality items given the incremental difference is not that big a percentage of the total delivered cost.

I agree with you though it is a bit of a chicken and egg thing where the market still needs to get proven along with the reliability of the technology.

The Twitter AI isn't rebelling, it's going insane from inconsistent input.

I have a video with those pesky facts too.

What will your windmill or solar panel look like after a plane crashes into it? I don't care if your solar panels are bulletproof, they are never going to hold up to the abuse that a concrete bunker can.

This isn't rocket science.

I'm pretty sure rocket science was involved in the survivability tests of a nuclear power plant.

The point is the reduce amount of damage that can be done by one person.

Right, and no single person is going to take down a nuclear power plant, or any significant portion of the electrical grid. A hail storm, tornado, wildfire, hurricane, flood, or whatever, however can bust up a lot of windmills and solar panels for miles around. With buried power lines, and a power plant in a bunker, and people can see power restored within hours of the storm passing.

With panels, again, you can just go to wal-mart and buy a new panel.

If a bunch of solar panels and windmills get busted up then Walmart is going to run out of both real quick.

Also, you show graphs of solar panels getting cheaper but can't nuclear power get cheaper too? I know natural gas and coal prices can go up and down with market forces but nuclear power is very price insensitive to the fuel since it uses so little for so much energy. We've got an effectively unlimited supply of nuclear fuel on Earth, we'll run out of solar power (by the sun going nova) before we run out of uranium.

Battery prices are meaningless to the argument of solar energy. Batteries don't care where the electricity comes from. If batteries get cheap enough then we'll just use coal and nuclear power to charge them up at night to meet the peak demands during the day.

Terrorists and Communists have been stable labels for over a century. Fascists that are clearly to the right of communists are to the left of socialists and left of center. These are all leftists. Conservatives are to the right. There are definite ideas behind them.

Here, this will probably make things a whole lot clearer - https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

Terrorists are always leftists. They want to shove what they think down your throat.

Sadly racist used to mean something definitive. I've known racists, worked for a few and I know of one today. Nobody you'd know I'm sure. Racism is ugly. Keeping someone down just because they're black. Note that hispanic is not a race, it's an ethnicity. Anyone saying it's racists doesn't know much of anything or they'd know the difference.

Solar is only cheap if it is connected, and that means there's some centralized utility. If you take solar off the grid then you need storage, and that costs money.

Careful or facts might get in the way. It's called economies of scale and it's helped us before.

Wouldn't an idiot with a rifle be even more successful in attacking solar panels than a coal, nuclear, or natural gas power plant?

The point is the reduce amount of damage that can be done by one person. With shingles they could use a shitload of ammo to destroy the power system for one house but they can't do that to millions of houses. Even if one guy shot a bunch of solar panels, you can just go to wal-mart and buy a new panel.

I mean we can (and do) put a nuclear power plant in a big concrete dome to protect it from attack but we can't do that to solar panels. What of a hail storm?

Oh those pesky facts are at it again!

Without a tie to the grid then how are these people supposed to get power until the solar panels are repaired? I know the answer, on site diesel generators, kind of like how we deal with grid outages now.

With solar shingles, you would have to take them all out to reduce power generation to zero. If someone shoots three-fourths of them, you just don't use high power high-power things until you can get replacement shingles. With panels, again, you can just go to wal-mart and buy a new panel. This isn't rocket science.

I'm sure that there's a lot of things we could do to secure our electrical supply. I'm also sure that solar power isn't one of those things.

You're also an idiot who ignores inconvenient facts, so nobody should take your word for it.

If he was dying he wouldn't bother to carve 'Aggghh', he'd just say it.

Maybe you should watch this video.

All the problems of deep space travel, bought down to the surface of the planet, such that you can travel about the speed of a bullet within a couple of cm of a gun barrel.
