  1. Re:Outstanding on The Touch Bar Could Replace the Keyboard on Future Macbooks (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    No lemon juice, it'll liquid damage the laptop.

    It'll be glued together with "no serviceable parts" inside, but it will still let in liquid.

  2. But they're not changing any DNS settings on your computer. They're using your DNS settings to look up the cloudflare resolver service, then using that when you use their software.

    Google don't redirect you to their search service when you type in a URL with a protocol, unless you select the option ending with " - Google Search"

  3. I hate "infinite scroll" on Front-End Developer Decries 'Garbage' Design Choices on 'The Bullshit Web' (pxlnv.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Especially on a product website.

    You scroll through their products, click on one, then when you go back, you've lost your place.

    I shouldn't have to open every link in a new tab just to keep my place in a list of things.

  4. Re:Google is a big issue on Front-End Developer Decries 'Garbage' Design Choices on 'The Bullshit Web' (pxlnv.com) · · Score: 1

    I've never had any issues with websites when I block google ad services.

  5. dust and moisture interfere with the light.
    Dust gets in the way, moisture changes the refractive index.

    Temperature makes things expand and contract. Different materials do s at different rates.

  6. Re:Did they control for wealth? on Regular Sauna Users May Have Fewer Chronic Diseases (reuters.com) · · Score: 2

    They didn't check people who don't use a sauna at all.

    They're comparing once a week with four times a week.

    If you don't have at least weekly access to a sauna, you wouldn't be part of the study.

  7. No EM interference to worry about..
    Just dust, moisture, temperature changes, vibration. Basically anything that can interfere with the optical path or bend/misalign the filters.

  8. Free upgrades, right? on Tesla Is Building Its Own AI Chips For Self-Driving Cars (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 1

    As they have been advertising for a long time that what you buy now contains all the hardware required for fully autonomous driving with a free software upgrade in the future.

  9. Re:To what end? on Tesla Is Building Its Own AI Chips For Self-Driving Cars (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 1

    0.2 seconds is nearly two car lengths at 90mph

  10. They develop the network, then 3D print it. Once it's printed it performs a static task.

  11. Re:Digimarc is guilty on Google Categorically Refuses To Remove the Pirate Bay's Homepage (torrentfreak.com) · · Score: 1

    There's got to be a point where they can't use "good faith" when they're requesting the same url over and over again with content never changes and is always rejected.
    15 times this year alone.

  12. Re:I don't get it on Earth Overshoot Day Came Early This Year. That's a Bad Thing. (popsci.com) · · Score: 1

    natural selection is not about the strongest.
    Its about the best adapted to the current environment

  13. Digimarc is guilty on Google Categorically Refuses To Remove the Pirate Bay's Homepage (torrentfreak.com) · · Score: 2

    Did they not send a request, under penalty of perjury, that thepiratebay.org was infringing their copyright when infact they knew it did not?

  14. Re:I don't get it on Earth Overshoot Day Came Early This Year. That's a Bad Thing. (popsci.com) · · Score: 1

    How is that different to natural selection?
    There's some randomness thrown in there but those that have adapted best to the current environment stand the highest chances of surviving and reproducing.

  15. Re:I don't get it on Earth Overshoot Day Came Early This Year. That's a Bad Thing. (popsci.com) · · Score: 0

    You're under the assumption that fish don't reproduce. I've got some news for you.

  16. Re: bittorrent on Judge Blocks Release of Blueprints For 3D-Printed Guns (nbcnews.com) · · Score: 1

    Expensive ones do.

    Maybe someone should see if they can get shapeways.com to 3D print a working gun and mail it out, without anyone at the company realising what they're doing.
    They also offer metal 3D printing as well as plastic. Maybe you could even print a reliable multi-use gun.

  17. Re:Except sales are slowing. on Tesla Model 3 Outselling Small, Midsize Luxury Cars In US (forbes.com) · · Score: 2

    That would take time and effort.
    I don't spend time researching slashdot comments.

  18. Re:Except sales are slowing. on Tesla Model 3 Outselling Small, Midsize Luxury Cars In US (forbes.com) · · Score: 1

    They're already pre-sold.
    More like 13,000 cars failed QA due to production issues or they're gaming the tax credit/government subsidies by delaying shipment.

  19. Re:That's what counts on Tesla Model 3 Outselling Small, Midsize Luxury Cars In US (forbes.com) · · Score: 1

    They probably had 13,000 cars they had to scrap because their production line is shit.

  20. Re:Trucks? on Tesla Model 3 Outselling Small, Midsize Luxury Cars In US (forbes.com) · · Score: 1

    So the air went from being smelly to causing cancer?

  21. Re:Trucks? on Tesla Model 3 Outselling Small, Midsize Luxury Cars In US (forbes.com) · · Score: 1

    They still won't have cleared their model 3 backlog by then, so good luck with that.

  22. Re:Regular orders or filling back orders? on Tesla Model 3 Outselling Small, Midsize Luxury Cars In US (forbes.com) · · Score: 1

    They're just filling pre-orders. The numbers make good clickbait though.

  23. Re:Impressive on OpenAI's Dactyl System Gives Robots Humanlike Dexterity (venturebeat.com) · · Score: 1

    Click the first link in the summary, there's a video immediately after the article title of a real robot hand performing tasks.

    No one is actually stopping you from seeing the video.

  24. They're saving money on Uber's Self-Driving Trucks Division Is Dead (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 4, Informative

    They know they'll never develop viable self-driving technology.
    They need to keep pretending they can, as it's the end-goal to turn a profit on their main business, ride-sharing.
    They'll lose investors if they give up on that. The company is still running at a loss, without constant investment it's going to collapse.
