    You should re-acquaint yourself with reality. The world in your head is only experienced by you.

    Then you aren't fucking having them.

  3. That's incredible. It's also nasty AF. How weird would it be to have someone else's paws? Hey, what if they were black, or brown, or yellow?

    There's a part of your brain that makes your body feel as if you own it, and even as if you are in it. As long as that works, they'll feel like his hands irrespective of what he's aware of intellectually.

    As for the race thing, I'll just roll my eyes. I bet you'd turn down donated hands if they were the wrong colour. Anyone with an impoverished mind would.

  4. It's class. Funny how even in this proudly ignorant, anti-intellectual time, science keeps on delivering the fucking goods.

    The only reason required to make me want to depart from YouTube is the impossibility of departing from YouTube. You like this cage? Great. It's a nice cage, I admit. I wonder what will happen if I try to use this service to criticize Google? I mean, not the chinstroking way talking head way. The effective way. What do you think will happen?

    You think videos that criticize google or youtube get removed? lol. You must be a fucking idiot to think that.

    Just checked. Yes, you're a fucking idiot.

    The impression I get from these comments is that Youtube has been enshrined by governance as the only place on the internet where videos can be posted. Pretty fucked up, isn't it?

  8. So you want alternatives to youtube, and you figure the best way to find that out is to ask on Slashdot? Checking back later? Posting as AC?

    Amazing job man.

  9. It's so great to see the thought police are out in full force.

    Not as great as seeing how annoyed you are about it. Twats who think they get to say whatever they want, on whoever's private platform they want, deserve to be made miserable when reality bites. Cry censorship all you want.

    Google is for all intents and purposes a common carrier, it serves as our community hall, mail system, our news papers, and so much more. Why should Google not be allowed to push polities into its search results, because the mailman should not be censuring and modifying my letters.

    Nope. Vimeo. Dailymotion. ZippCast. Twitch. YouTube is a private platform and they can decide whatever the fuck they like regarding what happens on it. Don't like it? Leave.

    Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhm let me have a wild guess. This will expose them to videos that contradict their views. Does that not seem obvious? Really?

    Free speech refers to government censorship. YouTube aren't the government. You'd think someone with a functioning brain could make that distinction.

    It's still easy to miss one little thing, and the FBI is sufficiently detail-oriented to find that one little thing.

    The guy used his personal email account to run the hidden Tor site. The address was used for password recovery for users. He used the same email address for LinkedIn.

    "one little thing" it most assuredly ain't.

    Thanks, but I'm on /., so I might have to cop to being somewhat of an idiot, at least some of the time :-)

    Nah, slashdot idiots all think they're geniuses, so you've just removed yourself from that pool by even considering that you might not know everything about everything.

  18. "Land of the free" was being parroted whilst millions of slaves were under the lash. It was still being parroted during the Jim Crow era. If that doesn't demonstrate laughably hollow words, I don't know what does.

  19. Aw, look, already resorting to making shit up. Must be frustrating not to have the facts on your side.

  20. Yep, no-one would bat an eyelid at two weeks off over here. USians really have to bend over to get a job don't they? "hard work" ethic indeed. lol.

  21. Re:Dangerous AI... on Beijing Wants AI To Be Made In China By 2030 (nytimes.com) · · Score: 1

    We should try not to anthropomorphise AI.

    Unless we create it via the cheap, unethical and stupid route of simulating/copying human brains, AI will arrive without our evolutionary baggage. No amygdala for example.

    We imagine that AI will derive a desire to dominate, when in actuality its our evolutionary past that gives us these drives in the first place.

    When you create an AI, you get to dictate its preferences. Due care is required for sure. If it improves itself, it may one day deal with information in a qualitatively different way. That's when all the bets are off.

    Heheh. Perhaps so, maybe I'm a cynical bastard. But I think Nolan needs to acknowledge the possibility that some really bizarre people watch things on Netflix and still go to the Cinema. They must be out there. Weirdos.

  24. You'd think it would matter that most of what he says is demonstrably false. But nope, apparently not. That's a bit part of why you're fucked, to be honest.
