  1. Yeah, but why choose a normally "male" name for the name of a main character? Why not "Sally" or "Mikala". There are millions of choices, but they chose a traditionally "male" name.

  2. You have to buy a new phone/device in order to sign up.

    Ignore this guy. He is a Seattle troll who claims he can only get ISDN/dialup. Apparently he has some beef with someone on the city council over "Directors Rules" (whatever that is). he just replies to himself over and over again in the same thread. Probably psychotic.

  4. Wait the new Captain is a female with the name Michael? I am confused already.

    "In Europe they mandated cleaner burning diesel which resolved that issue."

    Amusing. I guess you don't read the news much.

  6. Neural Nets are not AI. They are a marketing term to make you think they work like a brain. They don't.

  7. Um, image/letter recognition is not AI.

    This is Europe and Canada. They are eco-friendly countries who wouldnt do that.

    No problem. These are really big issues. If the food web is broken we are all in big trouble.

    There are many of us. We pick up the trash and clean the toilets. We ride public transportation. We aren't all newly minted millionaires here in Silicon Valley you kow.

    I earn $55k in IT in Silicon Valley. One of my specialities is host files. Hopefully this would allow me to increase my earning potential.

    As a transgender woman who lives in Silicon Valley and earns $55k in IT support, I wish her well.

  14. Now we know where all the anti-Uber "stories" come from: the multibillion dollar Lyft corporation backed by GM, and Waymo backed by Google.

    I'm pretty sure that RMS has been saying this for years. You cannot trust any closed source. You have no idea what is doing. You are trusting unknown people with your data.

    They did, and still are doing this. So you hate them because of some VC valuation?

    I don't get the hate for Uber. Don't like it? Don't use it. Use Lyft or one of the other competitors, or don't use any of them. And don't give me that "their business practices are illegal/wrong" baloney. That applies to most of the companies that you buy products and services from every day.

  19. Voice recognition software! It must be powered by AI and deep neural nets. Progress is amazing. Once day they will make software that will allow you to control your computer using voice commands. And then AI will have arrived.

    Guess what? It isn't "wrongful" or "criminal" in any legal sense. You are a moron. It is a WEBSITE putting out fake "Zestimate" numbers based on frequently incorrect data. So many people treat companies like they are gods that can't be opposed. Zillow is just a website some guys created. Sheep.
