Funnily enough, living in Canada I mostly hear "London has Fallen" coming from the UK tabloid press and their ilk.

And did that worry manifest? As someone that graduated when you started and was much closer to 08, it turned out to be a non-issue for everyone I know that went to college with me.

Coders and technical people often don't realize that the legal system is frequently fuzzy by design, and that is a feature and not a bug.

Like many things in American policing, this could easily be fixed by ensuring real consequences and penalties for fuckups like this. Incentives guide actions, and there is no incentive not to keep repeating the same negligent mistake. What

The point is that some parts of games truly don't impact the experience. Name a game whose settings screen added to the gameplay in any meaningful way. Hell, name a game from memory that didn't have the same settings screen with m

I don’t believe they are saying that 100% of the entire game or content is ai, they are saying that they believe that a huge percentage of titles have used AI for at least one part of the game, however small. I can absolutely believe it, an

I think the point is that it isn’t really a legitimate criticism of the device. Not having a fingerprint sensor was not a design choice by the keyboard maker. It is a constraint of the operating system that peripheral makers have no ability

Before this release, there were providers undercutting deepseek on the preview version. I suspect that once the hype dies down, or the field gets more competitive we will see the same on 0731.

I think there's also the consideration that the Laffer curve is very Ceteris Paribus. In reality higher taxes implies higher spending, and different countries spend differently. It's entirely possible that the peak of the curve mo

You’re describing the Laffer curve. Much of Reagan’s trickle down stuff was based on the idea that we were on the wrong side of the peak.

Not at all. If they can get the data to their server to store it, they could just as easily not do that and instead serve it from your local device by proxy through their server. It’s t he exact same difficulty as what they are already doin

My grandfather worked as the lead geologist on Project Rulison. That was the fracking shot in western CO. Apparently the shot was quite successful as a natural gas fracking technique, but quite a bit of radon also was released.
