There was an earlier interstellar object in 2014, and it hit earth. They are planning an expedition to retrieve pieces of it. https://www.space.com/2014-meteor-first-interstellar-visitor...

As I've said previously, this is just a marketing trick. It's not a technology breakthrough. It's a basic traffic jam assistant, which can be labeled as 'level 3', if Mercedes assumes liability. The conditions are l

Oh man, stop shilling. Ethereum is a stupid idea and responsible for the most amount of financial scamming in human history. That's what it's good for, nothing else. All the grifters and scammers moved onto Ethereum, if that'

That's a good thing. It means that they found a sound argument for it. Sound argument has to be something that keeps bitcoin alive and valuable to users. Bitcoin always follows the path which makes it survive. It can mutate, but only i

For small websites, it may just be an easy and practical technological solution, sparing the need to integrate with third-party services or platforms. I'm not sure why you see it as a negative, but for the merchant it's just anoth

Not really a Stripe alternative - but if you run out of alternatives, there's always Bitcoin. That is, if you want to accept payments without using any third-party service. I wish more people implemented Bitcoin (Lightning) payments on

Yet, only 0.01% of these button pressers are in a different league from all the other button pressers. Everyone can use a paintbrush, but that isn't enough to be an artist.

I don't see it in this way. People are genuinely excited about ChatGPT and are finding ways to build apps around it. I don't see what's bad about this. For influencers, ChatGPT/AI is a great topic because the field is mo

Maybe you can plug it in. But then you'd be tethered to the computer. However, Mac might not have low enough latency / high enough bandwidth for best experience. My thinking is that it will be an ultra-optimized highly integrated

It's an excellent choice for default controllers. Your hands are free to use keyboard and mouse, and your hands are also free for AR interactions in the real world. If you need a controller (for games etc.), then there's always th

I'm pretty sure the whole computer is on the hip. It makes sense. There's no way they could get the headset light enough otherwise. Even the best wired headsets are too heavy currently. It should be 200-300 grams to be comfortable

In addition to Kardashev scale, there should be a scale for how much power can a civilization project on an enemy at once. More advanced civilization should be able to project more power on similar scale as Kardashev. I.e. being able to pro

I was just thinking about this the other day. We have built quite an enormous tacit skill & muscle memory for being able to search & skim articles and find something useful on Google. Our own neural nets have been trained for years

Could you engineer a system, with a huge computer and fusion reactor to look like a star? Consider that all life would be digital at this point. If we take energy production and computation to the limit with huge scale, it might start to re

Of course the purpose is to make it go up in fiat denominated terms, but it doesn't make it a Ponzi scheme. It's just a better currency. Only an irrational person uses currency that is designed to lose value, compared to one that

No, I haven't heard of this connection until recently. I've seen 'mouthbreather' used as a derogatory term online, which is probably where I've seen it the first time. Top entry for 'mouthbreather' on Urba

Someone who breathes through their mouth keeps their mouth open, which is easy to observe. Someone might keep their mouth open for other reasons, such as being overwhelmed or surprised. This might explain why the mentally impaired might be

Why would someone breathe through their mouth if there's no nasal congestion. I'm pretty sure that you'd have to be cognitively impaired to begin with.

There's more time to connect and have fun with people in the real world when less time is spent on reading & writing comments on the Internet.

Yeah, AI must be personal and aligned to each individual rather than centralized and aligned to collective / group of high priests / profit-maximizers.

The purpose of communication is to distribute and filter information. We don't actually need to communicate. We do it to distribute and filter information. It is currently a very inefficient process. If AI does that for us in the fut

To me it's very obvious, but if you aren't familiar with Elon I guess it's possible to misinterpret it.

It's ridiculous to state that Elon praised Medvedev. Medvedev made some insane and absurd predictions for 2023 and Elon replied with "Epic thread!!". It was epic because how insane it was. Elon clarified it later with "T

For me, ChatGPT has already replaced Google for most queries, so the point is moot. Even if ChatGPT is flawed, it's still way better than Google. Using Google feels stupid; trying different search terms and clicking through dozens of w

Look at what's happening in Nigeria [0]. They have tried to ban bitcoin, but are now looking to legalize it. It's just too difficult to enforce when a lot of people are doing it. [0] https://bitcoinmagazine.com/leg

How did they collect the data? It seems to be some kind of crowdsourcing. It's not possible to accurately determine range if they don't run them completely out of charge. It's doubtful that they got that many datapoints on ev

It's just easier and faster to implement a 'block-all' filter and refine it later if needed. The outrage is pretty hilarious given that less than 0.0001% of Twitter users even know what is Mastodon. No one cares that your pre

One cool thing Apple can do is display mirroring from all your devices into VR. They also have 3D models of all their products, so they can redraw your devices inside VR without needing to use see-through AR. Keyboard, mouse and display wit
