  1. Re:Toxic people are damaging to the brand. on YouTube Will Increase Security At All Offices Worldwide Following Shooting (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    Obviously you havent seen any of her videos. She was into weird performance art, and harmless until she got demonetized and snapped.
    She wasnt demonetized for harmful content, it actually looks like they did it because she also uploaded in Farsi = Iran = might be terrurists.

  2. No, people DID see her videos(300K views per month for small independent channel is quite ok), but she wasnt being paid for views($0.10 is an insult).

  3. Re:Why though? on Nvidia Suspends Self-Driving Car Tests in Wake of Uber Crash (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    1. The pedestrian was J-Walking

    slow moving person, dragging metal reflector, crossing 3-4 lanes of road at 90 angle, directly under two street lamps, on an empty road with good visibility (actual one, not the lol dashcam) - PERFECT scenario for self driving technology.

    2. The driver was paying no attention to the road.

    self driving part

    3. The sensor wasn't able to respond in time.

    car didnt respond AT ALL

    I think the nVidia chip is the last thing that should be faulted here.

    You never sent me a response on the question of what things an app
    would do that would make it run on MSDOS and not run with DR-DOS.
    Is there any version check or api that they fail to have? Is there
    a feature they have that might get in our way? I am not looking
    for something they cant get around. I am looking for something
    that their current binary fails on.

    This is a fairly urgent question for me and I have received
    nothing.
