    How did they ever solve a case... before smartphones came along?

    Whispering to each other, and passing coded messages... it was all illegal; don't you remember??

  2. You think the Russians loaded hundreds or thousands of *tons of gold* so that the crew could pick up sundry essentials along the fucking way??

    Spraypaint's not for "recreational use," dude.

  3. No, no, no; if you own a cow, you own the right to the word "milk."

    I kid, of course; the dairy industry can go assfuck itself with prejudice.

    This entire 'debate' must be manufactured as there is no gateway and it's just too stupid to have risen organically (personally, I thinktheir 'interdimensional gateway' tech sucks ass; I haven't heard a thing about it). That having been said...

    ...1960's rocket tech

    ... it'll be current tech (but yeah, as our understanding of Newtonian Physics* hasn't changed much, our approach hasn't much, either) but it'll be a mix of their own ideas, those they pilfered from others... and perhaps some guesswork.

    The bad guesses will not be televised. ;)

    It is not sci-fi for thinking people, that's for sure.

    Now there's a new one... why didn't you anti-NN shills use that line when they were scraping the bottom of the barrel for disinfo/propaganda ideas??

    Oh, wait; I know: because it's fucking retarded.

  9. I never heard of this guy on GOP Congressman Introduces Bill To Reinstate Net Neutrality Rules (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    I never heard of this guy (I detest politics) but I figured "Damn, I bet he's here in Colorado." The smugness I now feel is, of course, satisfying.

    How many different revisions of this thing are there and how much more difficult does that make them to repair?

    Answers: "it doesn't matter" and "not at all." Knowing Musk, the design will be modular and newer revision components will be a drop-in replacement.

    It's like bitching that those Micron SO-DIMM's in your laptop are v4.1 of their product/model number: it doesn't fucking matter.

    ...when it was all ex navy and air force pilots

    If you ever get a chance to meet a bunch of carrier aviators... and then get to meet their 'not-so-cool, calm & collected' fundie/Southern fratboy counterparts - i.e. Air Force fighter pilots - you wouldn't even risk mentioning them both in the same sentence.

    Instead of trying to 'technologize & monetize' everything under the sun, Silicon Valley should focus on the one thing we as a society clearly need: hovering drink holders.

    Just wait till your "dildobot" catches a virus or gets hacked, and you have to overnight some RealCoin (that shit will be heavy) to a hacker somewhere, so that your robot - or the hacker - stops trying to assfuck you... at least at inopportune moments.

    ...because he said Musk's submarine wouldn't have helped

    Cognitive failure: We don't know why Musk called him that... but only a moron (well, lots of them) would assume that he didn't have a good reason.

    You might call someone a pedophile when you've got absolutely no basis for doing so; the way intelligence is distributed within society (or not, as the case may be), most people are perhaps dumb enough to be capable of accusing someone of such a thing baselessly.

    Now this'll be hard to wrap your head around unless you "slow the simulation down greatly" (pretend that you're a 16bit chip trying to emulate a 64bit processor in software) but some of us function differently from you and your fellow "average bellcurve idiot" - and this certainly includes Musk: Influential people are connected people; if he accused someone of being a pedophile, it's by far the likeliest that he knew something the rest of us don't./b

    And calling someone a pedophile is not "human emotion" and "frustration". It is disgusting behavior/quote> That depends entirely on why Musk blurted that out, which we'll likely never know... but rest assured he had a reason (bear in mind that extremely influential people are often extremely connected people... and in this day and age, there fewer and fewer secrets).

  25. Re:Automation does not start in production phase. on 'A Lot of Hoped-for Automation Was Counterproductive', Remembers Elon Musk (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    From all information I have on Elon Musk, my picture of him tells me that has the same problem as Trump. He is impervious to counciling from people that actually know better and are more "earthbound".

    I highly suggest dispensing with the notion that you're at all good at analysing people: it's very clear from Musk's [success in a wide variety of endeavours] that we're looking at someone more than capable of delegating... and that runs entirely contrary to your above theory.
