  4. Blood Clot Device Lawsuit on Neuroscientists Weigh In On Elon Musk's Mysterious 'Neural Lace' Company (ieee.org) · · Score: 1

    I think Uncle Elon is on a pirate ship, walking out on a plank on this one.. Not too long ago there was a device that was inserted into the veins of a person and supposedly filtered out blood clots. Well the device detached itself and lodged itself in other places. Lawsuits started circulating in commercials against the device. I think he should have a "Wait and see." approach on this one.

    Thanks for the info! I'll practice is on another drive. I'm too new, and everyone knows that using Terminal and making a entry mistake is like stepping on a landmine. I made the idiot mistake of not recording my backup password... The reason I used Dos was just to see if my favorite ancient games would work (tinkering). Another one I wanted to see work was Audacity. As buggy as Audacity is, I forced it to record what I wanted to.. It's all about making things functional on Linux to me. I always thought that Linux was the future until now.. Windows has gone crazy as far as I'm concerned, and I want to bail that ship.. I wanted a life raft OS and thought it was Linux.

    Hi Gavagai80, I'm a newbie to Linux..Thanks for making me feel better. I was getting quite nervous since I'm still running Ubuntu version 15. I tried Debian first, but did not have the knack of installing extra programs and finally gave up.. Between the book of 'Ubuntu Unleashed' and the Web I was able to also install Dos games; via 4Dos the Web and www.Gog.com. I'm not sure if Wine is dependent upon the Canonical system or not, but if it is; there go my Blood 2, Halflife, Wolfenstein, and more.. I'm almost ready to jump to Linux Mint because of the fighting.. But I don't know if it's any better. (P.S. I can't update because I will lose all the hard work I did to make my old Dos games work. Updating kills them. So I will have to use a new hard drive to stay current.)

    Thank God it came out earlier. We never would have had that kind of synthesized quality music. Pink Floyd's Meddle and Ummagumma never would have been heard, either. :(

    I would have given you a point for saying the truth of what this country consists of, and then stopped. The rest of it is too vague for me.

    Forget the 3,000 lb. "missiles" that they want to control. If you want something real for humans, build a bullet train! Instead prove A.I. is trustworthy with smaller things first: Make automatic cooking and cookware cleaning. Make something you can drop on a toilet to convert it to an automatic butt cleaner, a shoe tyer for old folks, personal car washer and maybe a waxer too, an actual lawn mower that mows straight rows and is safe to children and pets and mows around obstacles, an automatic weed puller, a mail getter, a dog walker, a real home floor mopper that changes it's own water and puts itself away, a duster/crumb picker upper (Tell me that would not be popular!!), a real a.c. vacuum cleaner, a real animal feeder, a rug cleaner that cleans up animal droppings.. These a but a few things that are actually useful to the average person. A.I can actually make things easier for daily life for a change!

    Do you have any idea of how rare that kind of job is? Most places require an afternoon meeting of supervisors every day. They scheme on how they can cut back, and squeeze more blood out of an employee.
