gear vr doesn't have enough resolution to match watching a fullhd tv... once it's over that, it's just easier to use them to look movies and play games..
you order something that expensive, get invitation to a launch event hinted that you might able to be see what you're signed up to buy(!) and maybe even test drive it(!) and then the launch event is fucked up.
cancelling the frigging order because of that is super fucked up though. musk suddenly is scared of bad reviews or what?
especially since eh, isn't the whole product late as fuck too?
dunno who the f buys something like this with no reviews and no test drive - and obviously cancelling orders based on bad rap is just a signal that he doesn't think he can meet the production quotas anyways in a timely fashion.
3) make the mobile site actually lighter than the desktop site. classic site is much lighter on transfer and javascript than the mobile site.
and I posted about fixing the mobile adverts earlier. curate them. buy a vpn that gets you to view the site as it really is if viewed from europe and especially asia..
because the whole concept was/is made for supplanting. thats the whole point.. you can check when it would be worth your time and you can drive if you want to. if there were enough drivers then it wouldn't be worth your time and you wouldn't be driving uber.
and working as dead time.. eh.. uber is mainly using that data to provide the drivers with foresight into when it would be worth their time to be driving.
"ooh analytics it's so much worth soo much money" is just a common mantra now.. even when it isn't. analytics about how much money investing in analytics is not so commonly seen though.
like, showing adverts makes money. having analytics about what time of day from what suburb people are viewing ads actually not so much. it only matters for squeezing a little more money out of the adverts but 99.999% of the time the advertiser wouldn't give a rats ass if the advert was shown to someone in the next neighborhood instead 4 hours later. with google ads for example the IDEA that it's shown precisely to the right people is the selling point.. but they actually just show it to enough people to catch on.
the algorithms in reality are really simple. if they weren't, then I wouldn't be getting adverts in language I don't know just because I'm in geoip location that would suggest I know that language - google has full history to figure out that I don't read any pages in that language and I don't view them on youtube.
well he is just lucky he didn't do a "react" video to it, so didn't get dmca'd.
basically, with a different title that video would be infringing on the trademark since it's a wepisode / youtube video.. that's the aim of the brothers anyways, to strip youtube of other reaction videos.
the context is "react" in the title of an internet video.
slashdot did not misunderstand anything.
Maybe you think that the intent was merely to protect their video titles.. well, duh, that is the intent. the intent is to suppress anyone else making react(in the title) videos for youtube or other streaming sites.
if you think that is fair use of trademarks then.. well, good luck. but don't post your reaction to this online in a video.
yeah, so sure you can still make a book called Parents React to Slashdot, though I'm still pretty sure they would sue you for it.
it's fucking stupid and it's just internet fishing at it's worst right now. whats worse is that they're claiming this pretty much after the fact that youtube is already filled with thousands of reaction videos and were filled before they started making their stuff too.
it's like coca cola co. trademarking "refreshing".
maybe just train the birds to do the smuggling so there's no need for the drones.
this sounds like a pretty expensive way compared to say just putting up a net over the prison - or just using cheaper drones to crash into the intruders.
furthermore, if someone wanted to counter this then they could switch to more rugged props..
it would just be better to have other drones with wires hanging off them or similar.
yeah for one dollar and.. plenty of other benefits to make up for it.
the one dollar ceo thing is just a tax dodge disguised as investor PR.
aanyhow... minimum wage laws are there in place to protect people from being able to agree to work for pennies. that's the whole point.
of course, where does that leave contractors? that's why competent minimum wage laws include infrastructure to control that too so that for example mcdonalds can't make every worker sign up as an independent contractor to work for 5 bucks per day.
it's engineered to fail and spend money and be a works project. otherwise they would put the cells on the walls.
or just build 2 kilometers of it.
I really suspect they will only build 2 km of this stuff though and the 998 km is a stretch goal.. let's say that one kilometer of it is 1 million, then 1000 is one billion.
I suspect though that they're trying to prove that the road surface will last for more time than blacktop. it might, if it's harder. but then it will be also inferior to drive on.
if you use a ftdi clone on windows... brick it once, then "fix" it, but fix it wrong device id and modify the driver to use that wrong device id.. at least then you will not get any more "updates".
ftdi has really shot themselves in the foot with this one. basically everyone is starting to move away from ftdi. the clone arduinos and others are starting to use it as a marketing tool that they're not using ftdi. instead of genuine ftdi the community is moving to another manufacturer.
doesn't really help that goddamn ftdi hasn't fixed the disconnect-fucks-up-your-app bugs either.
ever wondered why makerbot started using a frigging daemon service on windows to connect to the usb serial? well, the service restarts itself, the desktop sw talks to the service, so there is no observable crashing of anything by the user. makerbot called that service "conveyor" and really seemingly it was a rather pointless usb serial hogging piece of shit but that was the real under the hood reason for making it in the first place.
and in both cases we already know it will not pay for itself, WHILE if you just put them even upright at the side of the road, it would pay for itself(and reduce road noise).
oh and it would be cheaper.
solar freaking roadways is an extreme case of a solution looking for a problem. even if you COULD make the roads out of it, it would still make no sense to do so before all the sides of the roads, roofs and buildings were full of panels. it's basically the LAST place you want to put solar panels on, due to various reasons.
I guess you could use them as detectors for tank movements or some shit like that though..
it's not so much fun when scrolling down to there you will go past an advert that hijacks the page and opens up another.
like, get rid of abusive adverts. from europe you will probably never see them. thats how they get away with it, they purchase them by geoip to be shown only in places where the mods of the site don't live, so they have no idea what kind of crap adverts their viewers get to see.
like, there's a difference between an advert and something served that just plain breaks the site visit.
hmm yeah tell that to the people embedding programs into pdf's and all that. flash files, what have you - and adobes publisher makes files for adobes reader. other readers might work or might not..zip is a perfectly open license free standard! so lets have government just zip the files and we're golden!
anyways, the latest pdf format version apparently isn't open, apparently, so it is just as good as docx or whatever in practice. might just as well export to html or whatever.
what he meant was that the apple computers he has bought since have all failed within 6 years.
seriously, the rate the mobos go bad should be alarming. who cares if it's encased in aluminium if it just breaks some subsystem or another when it wants to. just today hd controller broke on one over here.. solution? buy a new mac of course.
while you're at it make them work for mobile and more importantly: get rid of the ads provider that is trying to install apk's when visited from asia. it's those half screen ads on the mobile site, every now often there's some advert or another that jumps the page to some page that links to an apk trying to get an install.
this kind of ads got served at least to thailand not too long ago.
well theres plenty of apps for doing it on the play market.
the news was that it was specifically made for them and that they had "intel" on it..
basically it was trolling media for a little bit of money. pretty shitty. at the point when they send them an apk they would need to have known what was on the apk..
actually the 911 inside job as shown on some crappy "documentaries" would involve tens of thousands of engineers who say those documentaries are full of bullshit.. but those engineers are saying that the inside job theory uses bullshit for proof.
Slashdot Mirror
they just need double the resolution.
gear vr doesn't have enough resolution to match watching a fullhd tv... once it's over that, it's just easier to use them to look movies and play games..
yeah difference with vista and 8/10(same fucking thing) is that vista they tried to make usable and with 8/10 theyre trying to use the customer.
chrome on android has a popup blocker.
how is that not "interfering with networks" or whatever. it has also "content protection" which is just basically the same thing.
also chrome app store has no such limitation.
so what the fuck google what the fuck
dunno..
you order something that expensive, get invitation to a launch event hinted that you might able to be see what you're signed up to buy(!) and maybe even test drive it(!) and then the launch event is fucked up.

basically, with a different title that video would be infringing on the trademark since it's a wepisode / youtube video.. that's the aim of the brothers anyways, to strip youtube of other reaction videos.
well of course unless you're using it to react to react videos.
it's crappy intellectual propertionism at it's finest..
backstory to this is that the bros are dmca cease & desisting competing videos on youtube. that's bad enough.
he seems to know already you need to block at the router.
what he is looking for is a simple list. amazingly nobody has posted one.
one problem is that you need to keep updating the list, because microsoft keeps adding new to the list.
the context is "react" in the title of an internet video.

well the aim would be to reflect as little as possible, to get any power.
well private mode is starting to be just "adblock disabled" mode for them...
it just needs double resolution on the display device and then it's ok for movies etc.. and cheaper than a 80 inch tv.
thats when it becomes mainstream.
it's engineered to fail and spend money and be a works project.
otherwise they would put the cells on the walls.
or just build 2 kilometers of it.

whats different with the older study? the new nylon, wood filaments?
the old study that was at some media quoted as OMG IT KILLS YA actually when covered correctly was titled about "3d printer as hazardous as cooking".
and well if you cook your peek/teflon parts in the extruder then thats pretty hazardous..
