  1. Just talk on Tesla Is Last In the Driverless Vehicle Race, Report Says (usnews.com) · · Score: 1

    Anyone of us is capable of pointing out problems, but people with solutions are the only ones that matter. Rest is just noise.

    Tesla is also the first in the driverless vehicle race. Because I don't see anyone else in it who could be taken seriously yet. Lots of talk, very little self driving cars.

    But I do reserve the right to change my opinions, because they are often proven wrong.

  2. wow..? on Physicists Observe 'Negative Mass' (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    Interesting. So in theory you could create thrust inside a sealed container? Sounds like troll physics to me.

  3. Surprise.. on Pixels Are Driving Out Reality (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    So CGI has stopped selling. What a surprise.

    Things that have been forgotten by tv and movie industry:
    - Best actors aren't always young and pretty. Characters need character.
    - Good scripts cannot be mass produced with real time ratings as a driving force.
    - Best tv series usually have a bad first season, maybe even second season. Tv series is a long time investment.
    -- NEVER just pull a plug on series. NEVER. Always make a closing episode. Always bury your creations properly.
    - Staying true to the genre creates markets. You cannot please everyone at the same time. Specially important when designing spinoffs.

    Just my opinion. I'm usually more wrong than right. But I keep changing my opinion until I'm right.

  4. LG G R on my wrist right now, where it has been since last summer. I only take it off for charging once a week.

    Thanks lg. BR, ex-customer.

  5. Re:reverse time? on Quantum Theory Experiment Said to Prove "Spooky" Interactions (economist.com) · · Score: 1

    ..Which would mean that time actually runs backwards for us. And communication over quantum entanglement is impossible, because we are just witnessing events that have already happened. And yes, I have no idea what I am talking about.

  6. Maybe time runs backwards for them, maybe all particles were in sync in the beginning (end from our perspective), and collision just throws them out of sync? Just woke up..

  7. Teleporters on Will You Ever Be Able To Upload Your Brain? (nytimes.com) · · Score: 1

    Horrifying thought about hypothetical future teleporters (old idea I probably read somewhere): They only transmit a full, perfect copy of you, and the original you is disassembled in the process. In other words, you are executed when you step in the teleporter, and a copy of you opens it's eyes for the first time at the other end. Unless of course the future teleporters actually transmit the matter to other end. In any case, I'll never step in one of those things :) Futurama's suicide booths come to mind..

  8. Sort of old idea on Company Extends Alkaline Battery Life With Voltage Booster · · Score: 1

    Have been doing similar devices to friends for many years.. For eg. device with three AA batteries, one battery is replaced with small 4.5V switcher power supply (with small ground wire to first battery). Keeps constant 4.5V output until batteries are very dead. Was specially useful with old flashlights, you could increase voltage to bulb limits and turn old Maglite to light cannon :D Well okay, maybe not that impressive, but better still..

  9. Nissan did it.. sort of? on Ford's New Car Tech Prevents You From Accidentally Speeding · · Score: 1

    Nissan has had for a while traffic sign recognition and speed limiter. I quess they don't talk to each other?

  10. Re:How do I answer a call? on Samsung Launches Virtual Reality Headset For Galaxy Note 4 · · Score: 1

    Facephone!!

  11. Re:$20 for the fighting spirit on GeoHot Asks For Donations To Fight Sony · · Score: 1

    Matched. There is a limit how far companies like sony can go and it is right about here. Also I really needed the otherOS option and I would really like to see some sort of homebrew media center on PS3.

  12. Re:Interesting on Geohot Brings Other OS Support To PS3 With Custom Firmware · · Score: 1

    But I do use the "PS3 OS" sometimes, play games etc..

  13. Interesting on Geohot Brings Other OS Support To PS3 With Custom Firmware · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I bought PS3 mainly because of OtherOS. Now they remove it. Can I get my money back, the product does not have the features I paid for and wanted? Oh well. Probably there is a paragraph in sony EULA that allows them to do this. There's probably few lines about my soul too..

  14. Re:Radical Fucking Concept on New Riddick Movie Made Possible By Games? · · Score: 1

    I could not agree more. Science fiction is almost dead. Even all the good series have been cancelled or 'spinoffed' to death.

  15. Re:I thought they were already gone in EU on UK Wants To Phase Out Checks By 2018 · · Score: 1

    I also thought that checks were mostly gone after year 2000 :D I mean, I can access my bank accounts and make payments with my cell phone's browser, check seems kind of ancient. But I guess check has it's advantages then.
