Welcome to 1996, IBM released their own hardware and software suite that did all of that, the only thing lacking was the "augmented reality wall" where you needed to have a PC connected.
According to SJW's and the far radical left, racism = prejudice + power. Thus only whites can be racists.
You can't forget all the crazy shit they're saying these days either, like ignoring someones race and basing actions on merit is racist. Merit is also racist, that's why github removed their meritocracy belief and inserted a CoC that directly targets whites. And before some radical nut starts with a 'lulz u white, u mad' post. Don't worry, you can call me a uncle tom, or something since I'm only half-white.
Shadowbanning isn't a moderator action, it's an admin action. You can ban someone from your subreddit, but it takes an admin to shadowban you. Though they say there are 'automated tools' that do it as well, of course the new CEO just finished say that "shadowbans are abused" then turned around and then a former FPH mod was shadowbanned asking why they they banned FPH when it broken none of the rules.
But hey, SRS is still there...and the vast majority of redditors know why. It's the home of ex-admins and at least one ex-ceo who all have moderator privilege.
Funny enough in some countries that are pushing for 'hard time' for copyright infringement, I could commit manslaughter(maybe as much as 2nd degree) here in Canada and be out before they would be.
Sure, but I didn't say I was leaving did I? I sure don't read it 6+ times a day like I used to, or 20+ times a day when Rob owned it. Usually once per day, and that's enough to glance over the headlines now. Same problem is happening to betanews, you do remember(well maybe not), when that was a good site as well. Same with neowin.
Sounds more like "slashdot is shilling for clickbait." In other news, users continue to flee slashdot in droves, DICE perplexed as to why site is becoming massively unprofitable.
I live in South-Western Ontario, there are a lot of houses here which still have doors on their second floor because the winters used to be so severe(though I'll bet the folks north of London ~6 years ago were glad they did when they got 22'/6.7m of snow in three days). The last 20 years though it's been less of an issue, but we don't usually get snowfalls often enough where we have to remove snow from our roofs here or in that particular area of the US.
Though there's a guy a few blocks away who got a FiT install with solar panels, no one could come by the clean them off. They broke, needless to say he was out $40k in replacement because he didn't have the coverage on his homeowners insurance.
Sea levels have been rising over the 20th century. This, and a host of other evidence say we _are_ experiencing the effects of climate change.
And people are still arguing as to whether or not we're out of the last ice age still, but don't worry the science is settled. Just like cerebral palsy don't have any genetic factors. Wait a second! A group just finished up a study and found it does have a genetic component in at least 10% of cases. And there was a lot of people in the medical community who were against the study.
Yeah, that's actually a brilliant example of science and scientists not wanting to go against the ingrained truth.
Is it even worthwhile to use an app like that to save a few cents on gas?
Here in Canada it's generally more then a few cents. In my neck of the woods gas is $1.16/L(~$4.90/gal), if I travel 30km(~18mi), I can buy it for $0.82(~$3.15/gal). Usually I don't use the app, rather I use their website. But their new policy violates a bunch of federal and provincial privacy laws here in Canada, and since they operate Canadian-centric sites, they're going to have to change their policies on it again.
Such a simple and rational solution right? Too bad that the governments there have spent the last 20 odd years restricting what parents can actually do to their children in terms of punishment. The state is more of a parent then anything else.
It doesn't help that a lot of those pay-for modders, started lashing out at those of us modders who wanted nothing to do with it. That's probably the biggest thing there, if you have access to any of the hidden forums for modders on the mod sites(nexus, moddb, modgames, etc), you'd see the personal attacks that the paid for modding used. Once that started making it out into the general community that pay-for modders were attacking others for not wanting it, the community in general had enough.
Those folks learned the hard way that it's really easy to burn bridges by attacking other content creators, and pissing off mod users.
Most people wanting to sell their mods, want to get jobs in game development-- Either as asset creators, scripters, coders, level designers, etc.
Pretty much, for those of us who've been modding for ~20 years on a variety of games we do it because we enjoy doing it and don't want to get paid for it. Rather the only application that most of us have is that our work is recognized, used, and enjoyed. A lot of modders start out because there's xyz missing and they want to add it to the game themselves, that's how I got into modding. That, and there were bugs sometimes serious bugs that need to be fixed but weren't fixed by the developer.
People who are talented will get noticed and picked up by the industry by the mods they make. Others use their mods as a showcase, which works out very well too.
- that would suggest that their cost of goods and operating expenses are negative.
Sounds about right, gotta remember that they've had some massively bad quarters and several years and they're still paying off their loans to other parties(not the government ones).
The last time nvidia fixed it in mid 2011, it was due to the cards throttling the core voltage down to control the amount of heat being generated. This caused problems in a lot of cards, especially cards which had flaky GPU's that didn't handle voltages well. Well it was fixed for all of about one driver release then it was right back to where it was again.
So you're saying that not having the required $6m in liability, and have different and higher driver testing requirements is a bad thing? You're making the assumption that "it's a good thing we generally follow the rule of law in Canada" in my statement. Assumptions are never good.
So where am I wrong? Uber drivers aren't following the law, ask them to show you their carrier insurance and chauffeurs license here in Ontario. By law they're required to show proof of both when requested for the vehicle you're going to be in.
My cousin and her C/L partner run a bee "farm" here in Ontario, over the last 4 years they lost 60% of their hives. This year they had a massive rebound in the numbers of bees, and have been hive splitting like crazy. In nearly all the hives that were wiped out it was either parasites, fungus, or a combination of the two. Their theory? Honey Bee monoculture, and that's a serious problem.
When Uber decides that it's xyz instead of abc, but uses existing laws to apply to abc, and ignore other laws like chauffeurs licenses and minimum mandatory insurance requirements they are indeed trying to determine which laws are good and bad.
I suppose it's a good thing in Canada we generally follow the rule of law. You guys in the US really have begun to swing to mob rule, and demanding laws based on feelings.
I guess that's why/r/kotakuinaction has more page views every month, usually in the 600k-700k range and climbing. That's why they've done numerous things, including funding feminist causes. And that's why developers and even hollywood stars that actually look into agree with it right?
If you get all your news from one place, you're living in a tasty world of group think. And of course, whenever one of these people come out pro-GG, the first thing that happens is the SJW crowd starts harassing them, and threatening to kill/rape/murder them. Such loving people right?

Nah, too much work. I'm Canadian, I only get outraged it someone touches my internet or hockey.
Funny enough in some countries that are pushing for 'hard time' for copyright infringement, I could commit manslaughter(maybe as much as 2nd degree) here in Canada and be out before they would be.

The upside with all those cheap imports from China, you can just buy more noodles right?
I thought that was called noodling? That's what it's called here in Canada(Ontario specifically) and in the southern US.
Is it even worthwhile to use an app like that to save a few cents on gas?

No this version only puree's.
CM and nearly all custom roms are immune and Lollipop is completely unaffected. Next time don't buy a carrier device.
Some of us don't have a choice, some of us still don't have a choice. Welcome to Canada.
You're right it's a voltage throttle.
- that would suggest that their cost of goods and operating expenses are negative.
Sounds about right, gotta remember that they've had some massively bad quarters and several years and they're still paying off their loans to other parties(not the government ones).
And a lot of "your driver stopped responding so we turned it off, then back on again."
That's the infamous nvidia TDR problem, and has been plaguing their drivers and cards since the very early R.208.xx series drivers. Said TDR problem has been so bad that ~4 years ago they were paying to ship PC's to California for testing to determine the cause of it. It's been on-going since 2008 and they haven't fixed it, or have been working on 'trying to fix it' since then.
The last time nvidia fixed it in mid 2011, it was due to the cards throttling the core voltage down to control the amount of heat being generated. This caused problems in a lot of cards, especially cards which had flaky GPU's that didn't handle voltages well. Well it was fixed for all of about one driver release then it was right back to where it was again.
