  1. This is a complete FALSE dychotomy on In a Crash, Should Self-Driving Cars Save Passengers or Pedestrians? 2 Million People Weigh In (pbs.org) · · Score: 1

    There is no such "choice" that will ever be relevant.. The car should maintain itself in proscribed places of travel. If a pedestrian runs out in the street, it should apply the brakes and attempt to come to a stop as quickly as possible. This makes it so either the car will stop in time and the pedestrian will be fine, or the speed of impact will be minimized and so the pedestrian will receive less damage all while not setting off a chain reaction that could result in worse outcomes for someone else.

  2. The car should swerve and wipe out as many ANONYMOUS COWARDS as possible.

  3. Yep. Here is what people actually want. on It's Becoming Increasingly Unlikely that We'll See a Major Shift To Virtual Reality Any Time Soon (theoutline.com) · · Score: 0
  4. Keep projecting your inadequacies on others ANONYMOUS COWARD!

  5. I post under my real name you worthless, cowardly asshole. I've worked since I was 14 years old. I've never had anyone pay my debts. I've supported more people than you ever will. When I'm involved with something, I get shit done. Go kill yourself you worthless, cowardly, anonymous fuck-tard!

  6. Everything you said is complete nonsense. Make up some more worthless shit and post it anonymously and cowardly. You are completely and utterly full of shit.

  7. Excellent points and analysis.

  8. Most kids are more interested in what kind of social shennanigans and petty politics they can get up to rather than working hard at something. Same as most adults. Most people could care less about being productive and useful in life, they just want to see how much they can grab through petty back-stabbing and bullshit games. Hence the popularity of worthless "Humanities" degrees. The only value of "Humanities Degree" is you you repeatedly crumble and uncrumble the piece of paper it is written on until the fibers break down and become somewhat soft, you can use it as an emergency piece of toilet paper.

  9. Ah, the old "I'm an armchair psyhoanalyst bullshit" from an anonymous coward who can't be held accountable for their worthless words. Your crap is nothing but misery. Hey, look at me, I can run my mouth while everyone else works to feed, clothe, and shelter me. Fuck off! The government should pay my student loans for my shitty, worthless "degree" because I'm special. Translation: Someone should put a gun to people's heads who are being productive and rob them to pay for my navel gazing. Fuck You!

  10. Whoosh!

  11. I'm pleasantly surprised you took me up on that. I wouldn't expect most anyone to do so. I know my posts are, for the most part, quite over-the-top, but, if you look closely at what I'm responding to, it is hypocritical, non-scientific, non-fact-based, clap-trap.

    I have such a complete and utter dislike and aversion to the current climate of anti-science, anti-fact crap (from all sides), that I've made it my mission in life to exaggerate the extremes at every opportunity to show how disgusting the whole idea is.

    You probably (or at least most wouldn't) believe that, but, I think if you look closely, you'll notice that common thread (though sometimes it is quite obtuse and hidden).

    And yes, I do not consider most "Humanities" to be fact-based/science-based. That doesn't mean I don't think they have value, just, that I think they over-inflate their own value far beyond their contribution of well-being to humanity.

    I strongly believe in "doing" and "providing" and "building" and I'm not so much into "introspection" and "mindfulness" and crap like that. I strongly believe that there is far too much non-productive "work" going on and that the few percentage of people actually working their ass off are getting bled dry by all the religious/psychology/management/legal/political scumbags who exist solely as leeches upon the actual productive members of society (buildings, scientists, engineers, farmers, bricklayers, garbage men, custodians, etc., etc.).

    I make it my mission to call out the "garbage" (as I see it) on every possible occasion in a way that flies directly in the face of the so-called "inteligencia" that continuously crank out the crap.

    Hope that explains my motivations some. Thanks for asking.

  12. What am I serious about? Are you sure you can figure that out? Is there a point to my rants? Follow the common thread. If you're sophisticated enough to do so.

  13. > who works for him

    Yep, the boss is always male. How sexist of you! Misogynist!

    > epically if the "victim" is a woman

    Yes, women need special protection from men by other men. They need to be at home where their man can protect them from the "world". Problem solved!

    > Even as peer to peer.

    Yep. That's why women and men should not share work-places or schools or clubs or hobbies or shopping areas or bathrooms or beaches or parks or roads. Yes, if we just covered women in a thorough head-dress from head-to-toe we could better protect them from the evil men. Too bad we're not as sophisticated as Saudi Arabia!

  14. > think VR is something that it's going to take a while to catch on,

    Yep, this has been said every couple of years for the last 30 years (since about 1983 or so).

    > right now there's no "Killer app" for VR and the hardware is still too bulky and expensive.

    Yep, this has the same familiarity.

    > AR is more likely to catch on sooner since for some functions the hardware is either here or close. All that's needed for AR to take off is the right App/reason.

    Nope. It's the same as VR. The applicability just isn't there. Overlay advertising over your view. Yeah, we all want that. NOT!

    Women should not be in the same work-place as men. There should be women only companies and men only companies and never the two shall meet (at work). Problems solved.
