    Unicornium, or Monohornium?

  3. Re:lol on Blizzard Has a Version of Diablo 3 Running On Consoles · · Score: 5, Insightful

    It's not diablo 3.
    It's Isometric world of farmcraft and it really shows the generic cash addicted shit producers that blizzard have become.

    Play path of exile if you want a continuation of the awsome that was diablo 2.

  4. Re:where is the random? on High-Frequency Traders Use 50-Year-Old Wireless Tech · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Go read up what high speed algo traders are doing and you might change that opinion.
    They are abusing their latency advantage by adding orders that they cancel microseconds later, and other manipulative events that siphons value from other traders.

    Your truck analogy would be me selling you 1.5 ton gold, and being aware that you're going to drive 2000km and sell it at a profit, after selling it to you I phone my contact 2000kms away and have him sell another 1.5 ton gold at your target destination. When you arrive there, my contact have ruined your initial profit opportunity, and you're either stuck with no liquidity or can sell your 1.5 ton gold to my contact agent at a loss. So not only did I steal your opportunity, I decided to earn money off you by selling my gold to you at first for profit, and then buying it back, at profit again.

    This is not about me having an 18 wheeler, it's about me being massively priviledged in both capital, resources and information flow and using it to vampire money from the efforts of others. It doesn't add value, or efficiency, it removes it and adds voltatility and risk to everything.

  5. Re:Great... on High-Frequency Traders Use 50-Year-Old Wireless Tech · · Score: 5, Funny

    I was thinking more along the line of a foil-covered-blimp-in-the-middle attack.

  6. Re:I'm tired today. on Chinese Firm Wins Bid For US-Backed Battery Maker · · Score: 2

    The united states of fail giving away their incomptetenly mismanaged and dearly needed money to their future masters. Why keep it partisan when it's your whole nation sinking?

    It's the free market cleaning up the mess corruption and mismanagement created. A123 should never have got their free goverment cash to start with.
    Whatever, I'm not american, not my money.

    I'm pretty sure they filter it to ensure they serve only the purest of piss.

  9. Re:Link went mising - here it is on Catfish Strands Itself To Kill Pigeons · · Score: 3, Interesting

    One link mentioned a 28% kill rate. While not very impressive it's a free meal every 3rd time.

  10. Re:Real bread goes stale after 1 day on Scientists Develop Sixty Day Bread · · Score: 1

    They generally use a humidity preserving polymeric barrier.
    We call them plastic bags, try one for your homemade bread and watch as it magically lasts more than two days

  11. Re:AND WHAT OF ALFREDO GARCIA ?? on Apple Axes Head of Mapping Team · · Score: 0

    I'm more concerned that he walked from Antarctica to Denmark, what other superhuman feats can he perform?
    And since when did they relocate the headquarters to Antarctica anyway?

  12. Re:First post on Large Hadron Collider May Have Produced New Matter · · Score: 1

    Speaking of matter: a wall of gluons sounds just like the ultra strong base material needed to construct orbital superstructures. Could anyone enlighten us as to the expected material properties?(let me guess: halflife ½ picosecond)

  13. Re:Define "brain cancer" on Finding a Crowdsourced Cure For Brain Cancer · · Score: 1

    It's a neoplasm for sure and given that it's a cancer(malignant) it's sure as hell not a lipoma(benign).

    If you read the text of the first link it's a "low-grade glioma"(which despite the -oma ending is still a malignant tumor(which would generally have a -sarcoma or -carcinoma ending))

  14. Re:How is AI on the list? on Cambridge University To Open "Terminator Center" To Study Threat From AI · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Of the four things cited, none is "giant rock from space" which is pretty much more likely to kill us than the four mentioned combined.

  15. Re:How is AI on the list? on Cambridge University To Open "Terminator Center" To Study Threat From AI · · Score: 2

    Only that any singularity-in-any-size-of-box computer will be preceded by multiple iterations of more advanced deep learning systems like watson, that will be open for study and most likely found out to be very much refined google search as opposed to feeling and conspiring humanoid intelligences.

  16. Re:I find this denial very truthful... on U.S. Denies Using Flame Malware To Spy On French President · · Score: 2

    They didn't use Flame to spy on the president. They have other spyware for that.

    Maybe they are corporate jews of the kind that can't see progress because their nose renders them practically blind to reality?
