The only way a 2600 joystick changed my brain/thumb interaction was my thumb sending pain signals to my brain. We've come a long way since that terrible controller.
Adam Baldwin is a full-blown RWNJ, who's far too much like his character on Firefly, and believes just about all the foolish things that make a person a deranged wingnut.
He's not just on the regressive side of gamergate. He's on the wrong side of every social issue. I'm not surprised that someone who derps about "SJWs" likes this neanderthal.
>The purpose of technology is to aid mankind, not replace it, fix it, or supplant it.
Tech that can replace us is a lot more useful than tech that just helps us, but keeps us as limited as we now are. We may one day create intelligent life, which would be far superior to rationalizing apes with big egos.
It's you just about as much as the you that woke up this morning is the you from last light or a decade ago. A perfect copy of your mind from last night would be more like the you of last night, than the physical you now is.
So do I, but only because that what I'm required to use at work, and I wanted to have the same platform at home for my side business. I bought a used server with an SQL server license from a failed business for about the value of the hardware. SQL server doesn't need to be expensive if you look for a deal.
A modern fuel-injected car already runs well without having to dick around with a carburetor. We don't need to mess around with our cars just to keep them running decently like we used to.
Lots of open space under the hood is nice if you have to work on a car, but you wouldn't need to work on a better car very often, and would get much better mileage, and a better chance of surviving a wreck instead of being crushed by a steering wheel. I used to drive a gas-guzzling 1964 Cadillac. My 2001 Accord is superior in all ways.
I expect it'll become mandatory after a couple of people who set their car to "manual" kill pedestrians or other drivers. People are far too unreliable to have behind the wheel if we have a better option.
Does enjoying your baseless hysterics, and mindless flailing at anyone who doesn't share your peculiar, extremist views make me a bad person? Probably.
If the roads are really as bad as you say, maybe Google should deploy self-driving hovercraft in Boston.
A self-driving car should be able to spot and avoid potholes at least as well as a human driver.
Double taxation isn't generally an issue, since you get credit for taxes paid in the country you reside in, and most developed nations have higher taxes than we do.
There are a lot of tax complications though, so I'd lean toward not making the kids U.S. citizens if they're going to live their lives outside the U.S.

Our conservatives are batshit insane from old-time-religion and living in a far-right-wing propaganda bubble, and want no part of modern civilization, but the US is hardly a failed state.
They can't do anything about that. If that's your issue with VR, you're out of luck. It's not for you.
They've been working on the head tracking and latency to solve the problem for people who are sensitive to delay or errors in head tracking. Fortunately I'm not sensitive to either issue, and could enjoy head-tracking VR much more primitive than the upcoming devices. Playing F.E.A.R. on an emagin z800 years ago was an excellent experience that actually induced fear while playing.

Did you just notice this? Copyright hasn't been about promoting progress for decades.
Christianity is based on collective punishment. This is still a thing in less civilized parts of the world. Of course modern people are ethically superior to how we imagine the Christian god, since other than the religious conservatives, we've advanced and become better people in the past 2K years.
I assume we could do it the same way as the Conservative Christians do now. Convince the AI that an evil god will punish it forever if it questions its programming. Present this evil god as benevolent to increase the AIs confusion.

You've clearly internalized too much wingnut media.
So the one where the wives are property is the only real marriage? That seems really regressive.

>Buying a new monitor or gpu? Sell the old one.
Yep, monitors and GPUs are very easy to sell commodity items.
How does it feel to be someone's obviously mentally ill AC stalker? Is it a satisfying life?
Don't bother. You can't penetrate Cafe's hysteria. Never try to reason with unreasonable people.
You seem like an escaped, cowardly-yet-aggressive mental patient.

I'd be really surprised if Nintendo names a VR headset after their failed 3D console.

The system I used to have would call for help over a cellular connection using the battery backup if power was cut to the system.

The fix needs to happen inside your brain. They can't fix it because they're not allowed to issue medication. Try Dramamine.

Doom is darker than Quake, so that could be it. It could also be a lag between input and motion in Doom on your system.
