This is exactly the kind of simple tutorial I was looking for a few years ago. I forget what the project was that I wanted this for, though, haha. Thank you for the writeup!

Yes, that is how temptations tend to work. The implication is that the cognitive offloading is bad for you in the long term.

Hopefully this doesn't mean the system can't report a non-OEM part being installed at all. Buying a used product that's been hacked apart would be frustrating.

Old TV series should have closed captions available (which are apparently different from subtitles), however the question of where to obtain aside from VHS copies them might be difficult.

Watching a movie and "recording it" with my brain is legal, and remembering scenes + dialogue is legal, but recording it with a camcorder and watching it whenever isn't. When the artist gave you the work, it was under the pre

I can't help but notice that it doesn't matter what DeepCent does because OpenBrain will reach self awareness 6 months before them no matter what. Who needs a profitability plan when you're speedrunning the singularity.

If google maps told you a main road was closed, would your first instinct be to suspect that google maps is lying to you for the first time since you started using it? I'd sooner suspect a meteor landed on the road.

you're forgetting the corn maltodextrin in doritos, which is a kind of predigested food-derivative that this article is warning about. Your body turns it into glucose much more efficiently than just corn, and overdosing over a long per

All of these articles need to come with an "About the Author" section that describes how the author makes their living. They claim to be living the outlined lifestyle, but I doubt they are working part time at three gas stations.

I love the stupid math in this paragraph. One 10hr shift is ~30% of what you need. So multiply that by 3.3 and... oh hey you're working nearly 40hrs a week to afford your impoverished lifestyle in the middle of nowhere. Just like every

Copyright does discourage DRM. Even the most egregious DRM these days can be bypassed with minimal effort and is mostly just a nuisance. Take away government enforcement of copyright and how profitable your digital product is will be direct

There's no reason FreeSteam can't also do that, though. There's no copyright, so just have an extension of the steamapp that changes it to point to your server when downloading games / checking ownership. Piracy stops be

People would use that service instead of Steam, publishers would add annoying DRM to mitigate lost sales, etc etc. The current illegality of the piracy website prevents them from offering a service as nice as Steam. It has to be a sketchy t
