  1. What kind of data caps will we be seeing on 5G networks?

    Assuming you live in a 1st world country, I'd imagine none at all.

  2. Re:Two things I would have liked to see from this: on Have Aliens Found Us? A Harvard Astronomer on the Mysterious Interstellar Object 'Oumuamua (newyorker.com) · · Score: 1

    It might have as well been a sensor platform to allow for precision ultra-long range missile strike by ships still on approach.

  3. Lots of trust on Elon Musk Wants To Put An AI Hardware Chip In Your Skull (itmunch.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Are you sure the chip isn't capable of turning your power switch to off position?

  4. that looks like a compilation of criticisms they've received, I'm not sure what point your're trying to make with this

    Literally demonizing concerned fans.

  5. Be nice to [..] fans. .

    Really this, they dropped the ball big time

  6. Re:The damage of shit talking. on Battlefield 5's Poor Sales Numbers Have Become a Disaster For Electronic Arts (seekingalpha.com) · · Score: 2

    Unfortunately most of the damage has been down to people shit talking the game before it even came out and then continuing, the majority of whom have never ever played it but are merely regurgitating comments made by others.

    If you cannot trust the game devs whos word can you trust? The following picture was tweeted out by devs and is completely unaltered: https://i.imgur.com/Yu2ms5k.jp...
    Also those are not just their opinions, they included their personal biases into the game as well: https://www.reddit.com/r/Lives...

  7. Care to present yours?

  8. Saying white men is racist now?

    In this context, it absolutely is, they are clearly acting as males, especially white ones, are worth less and the their sacrifices are a joke.

  9. an issue with the chatbox of all things.

    You're being deliberatelly dense, thats not an "issue with chatbox"; it is outright censorship, every word and phrase on the blacklist is entered manually and reveals the bias.

    EA is not getting their moneys worth with your shilling.

  10. I never went to see what they actually have in the game after reading about the whole "saying 'white man'" being censored in-game. Is saying "white man" still being censored in in-game chat?

    Never heard of that.

    So you're saying you got no clues about what you're talking about?

    Never heard of this?

    Just look at what the developers published on twitter: look at top left corner: the image is unaltered. WHITE MEN! WHITE MEN! WHITE MEN!

    Can you tell me how many made it into the final game? Oh yeah, zero. That shit was cut fast but you wouldn't be able to tell from all the people seemingly still frothing at the mouth over it.

    Why should any of us buy a game made by literal racists to verify their racism? Just look at this image originally published by DICE developer: "WHITE MEN! WHITE MEN! WHITE MEN! (top left corner of screen)" The image is unaltered.

    That along with this is a dealbreaker.

    The responsibility is on the developer and publisher to communicate clearly. They dropped the ball big time on this.

  12. The first trailer yeah, but that was cut hard and fast. Is that not what you wanted?

    They didn't bother announcing that then, also, I never went to see what they actually have in the game after reading about the whole "saying 'white man'" being censored in-game. Is saying "white man" still being censored in in-game chat?

    I don't want to pay a single cent to people putting that kind of censorship on their platform.

  13. People are getting triggered over a single women showing up in the game trailer, when 10 - 15% of French Resistance fighters in WWII were women. Who again are the perpetually offended here?

    Maybe you should check your sources, I cannot find any references to cyborgs being french resistance members - Thats not a WW2 era prosthetic on her, she couldn't reload a bolt-action rifle, a machine gun or an artillery piece with that thing - So it has to be cybernetic.

  14. Re:This is Patrick Soderlund fault on Battlefield 5's Poor Sales Numbers Have Become a Disaster For Electronic Arts (seekingalpha.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    a woman with disabilities

    The lady in trailer is not disabled, thats not a prosthethic as WW2 era prosthethics can't do things like reload a bolt-action rifle, machine gun or artillery piece.

    That lady is cybernetically enhanced . Too bad its not a cyberpunk game.

  15. prosthesis

    Not a prosthetic, they are incapable of things like reloading a bolt-action rifle, machine gun or artillery piece.

    The thing depicted in-game is a _cybernetic_ enhancement, not WW2 era prosthetic.

  17. For once I'm not mad at China.

    And the Chinese communist party's next demand will be censoring you on every platform connected to any kind of public network for bring up their crimes. After that they'll demand you to be given no credit at the bank and no access to air-travel or trains.

    They'll start doing it on holiday before their gov cracks down on foreign holidays.

    The new social credit score system keeps the ones in the country who might be interested in such things. Disagreeing with government bans you from using any kind of mass transit, loan or even your kids access to school.

  21. Re:Jaywalking = Weak governance? FFS. on In a Crash, Should Self-Driving Cars Save Passengers or Pedestrians? 2 Million People Weigh In (pbs.org) · · Score: 1

    Pedestrians typically have right of way over cars

    I'm an American who has traveled quite a lot and that sounds odd. I've spent time in a fair number of European and east-Asian countries. I haven't been to one where pedestrians universally have right of way. In all cases I've seen, pedestrians are expected to wait for vehicular traffic to clear before they cross when crossing outside of a designated crossing area.

    What countries are you referring to?

    Here in Finland at marked crossings pedestrians always have right of way (unless there are traffic lights), further, the motorist has obligation to prevent accidents even when the pedestrian is in the wrong place.

    You racist fucker, why shouldn't Chinese people be allowed to do research?

    China isn't gutting Google. Google is doing it to itself, same as GE and IBM. Which is why those 2 companies are now out of business and bankrupt. Aren't they??

    Chinese communists killed over hundred million of their own citizens, that regime should not have access to any modern anything.
