Yes i know, it was a hack. For any meaningful PS2 emulation to occur, they had to put at least some PS2 hardware in the PS3. Do you want them to to put PS3 hardware in the PS4 to make back compat work?
DO you know how the PS3 got PS2 emulation? By slapping a full set of PS2 hardware inside the PS3. The Xbox back compat list is spotty at best. I have had a full back compat PS3 since launch, and a full library of PS2 titles. The PS2 games i played the most I ended up geting the HD remasters of. Its a total non-issue. What you should be stoked for is the fact that the next consoles are pretty PCs and that development across PC and consoles is going to be very smooth and easy.
Given the scope of the universe, SETI is orders of magnitude more useful and viable then bitcoin. SETI is hope, Bitcoin is greed. Personally, when i donate CPU cycles, its for protein folding, but i have done SETI in the past.
As cybernetic implants become reality, its only a matter of time before someone embeds local storage in their body. Imagine a cochlear implant with onboard, encrypted storage. Pretty hard for current LEO tech to deal with.
Technically speaking, asking about your religion is not illegal. It makes a huge dent in their legal armor if they dont hire you, but the act in and of itself is legal.
To be fair, the way we design networks sucks. Way too much remote hardware and permissions. Way too little graceful failure. Add to that custom in-house software written by brogramming monkeys.
Way too much of this "You stood on the shoulders of geniuses to accomplish something as fast as you could, and before you even knew what you had, you patented it, and packaged it, and slapped it on a plastic lunchbox, and now (bangs on table) you have network issues."
NO it is not real money. Real money is backed by violence. All it would take is a stroke of a pen to wipe out bitcoin entirely. I really dont like the idea of Bitcoins. All that computation going to waste for LITERALLY NOTHING but a number. Its an IMMENSE waste of resource and it makes me sad people find this to be a noble endeavor.
I have been thinking about this a lot lately. At some point in the not too distant future, games and moves are going to SHARE art assets. Will we be able to remix the assets on our computers and make new adventures with cinema quality props??
The two data sets are intimately related in predictable and purposefully engineered ways. They are a 'known transform' away from each other. Not exactly the right terminology, but you get the idea.
I have been saying this for awhile. I want a mobile that remembers it is a badass piece of computing hardware and to stop ignoring use-cases that arent purely mobile oriented. I fully understand compromises had to made in bootstrapping mobile to where it is, that time is over. Give me POWER.
When i talk about using my mobile or tablet as a small server for books, audio etc, people think that is silly. My phone is more powerful then the computer i used to host my IRC node in college, yet the idea of it serving anything (besides all the personal data it generates about me) is completely ignored. The entirety of mobile right now is bent on knowing EVERYTHING that goes on in the device, and you have no access to it. I have an iphone 4S and an Ipad 2. One has cellular, one doesnt. There is NO NATIVE WAY to transfer data from one to another. If i want to pull something off my server with the cell connect, i cannot then view it on my ipad. I find this extraordinarily unacceptable at this stage in mobile.
NO, fuck that. Software UX designers are literally DECADES beyond anything a car UX guy can do. It all comes down to scope. Give a software UX guy and a car UX guy the same scope and I guarantee the software UX guy will provide something amazing and functional compared to the Car guy.
Then the solution is obviously MORE TRAINING, not putting rubber bumpers on the world. HAHA hook em up like Nick Cage in Firebirds and see how they do 'in the bag'. If they pass that, they can wear HUDs while driving.
It doesnt have to be a full panacea to useful and viable. Right now im planning on converting my home to full LED lighting with some modest sized panels. After that ill work on putting all my computer and networking gear on the solar system, etc. It doesnt have to be an all or nothing proposal and it doesnt have to fully pencil out to be viable. Powering all my lighting and computers via solar is a damn good start.
I cannot control how other people interpret my words no matter how carefully i fashion them. Words are extremely crude vessels for human thought. To say intent doesn't matter is incredibly naive.
The social media verdict so far is that the dongle joke was something like 'thats a big dongle', and the only statement widely considered to be slightly offensive in certain lights, esp 3rd party eavesdrop. Its important to note this was an A-B conversation with absolutely no connection to the offended 3rd party.
The second joke was 'I would fork his repo' which, while patterned after a familiar offensive phrase, is not in and of itself offensive. Especially considering the devs have a doctrine of considering forking to be a great form of flattery, and implementation being the highest.
You have no fucking idea what tyranny is. You ARE NOT guaranteed a safe existence in this life. The only way to get what you want is to lock down the world. I could walk up to you and strangle you in public outright and there is not much anyone is going to be able to do to stop me until after you are dead. I could do this with my bare hands. Are you going to make bare hands illegal too?
And we are trying to tell you that making a 'bomb' in and of itself shouldn't be illegal. What you are trying to do is pre-emptively stop anyone from ever making one because some explosives are used to hurt people. In short, police state, with some nuclear hyperbole thrown in. Did you know your car is propelled by explosive force?
A smart gun nut will say i want enough firepower to be able to match the police and perhaps the national guard. After that, munitions become too powerful in the hands of individuals. Our defense against the military is the hope they wont fire on US citizens.

Its probably a UX design convention term.

Which boils the argument down to: will you do more time for refusing, or for the decrypted evidence.

I really hate the ticket/metric system. Its designed pretty much to determine at what exact point they can do with one less person.
To be fair, the way we design networks sucks. Way too much remote hardware and permissions. Way too little graceful failure. Add to that custom in-house software written by brogramming monkeys.

They dont have to shut it down, all they have to do is make it illegal. The point will be to stop its growth, not to wipe it off the earth.

Do you chant 'For the greater good' before bed every night?

Is the asterisk in the name to minimize how many times the web crawler sees the brand name in question? Or are you just doing a M$?
