Don't worry about the downvotes. You're not the only one who can see that those calls for regulation are actually just panic about profits going elsewhere.

Perhaps eventually, after we learn to live better. But that's no reason to give up and make greed mandatory.

Maybe, but so they aren't capable of living in a 100% transactional capitalist dystopia. As evidenced by everyone popping neurol (or another coping mechanism) with ever increasing frequency.

Yeah. Almost like the capitalist pyramid shaped corporations while actually being... The same?! What a shock! I know you probably heard that one, but as long as there is a boss or a general, it's not communism. Also, democracy is vulne

I am showing this to kids at the game programming hobby group today. This is hilarious. I mean all of Nick's creations are dope, but this one caught me by surprise. :-)

Corporations were always maximally greedy, but there were times where the markets were not 200% saturated and new demand did not had to be created artificially by mass indoctrination. I mean, everybody who have seen their neighbor's el

What do you mean? Besides from Bluetooth and USB: - 433MHz is very much alive (various RF-controller lights, gate openers and such) AND can be used to remotely control another Flipper. - Both 3.56 MHz and 125kHz are alive in door locks and

Looking forward to that as well. I use a large scale FTTH provider with multiple virtual operators, some of whom (like the one I use) have their gateway elsewhere.

Every 24 hours, my stream quality resets to 520p. Then I reset ESN and it goes back up to 1080p... for another 24 hours. Kodi plugin. I pay the UHD tier, by the way. The second they ask about possible account sharing, I am canceling.

You really need to design it yourself to grok it. It's weird. Try using Falstad's online simulator.

It ended up looking similar to Oblivion. So I'd wager a guess that it was the intended aesthetic, only limited by the older technology. The only authority here would be the original designers.

In my experience, persistent message queue is just a poor secondary database. If anything, I prefer to use ZeroMQ and make sure everything can recover from an outage and settle eventually. To ingest large inputs, I would just use short appe

If this passes, everyone will add to their code: DISCLAIMER: Following text is not a program code. It does not work. Do not execute it. And call it a day. As long as it was only brought to the market as a piece of prose, you are safe. :-)

I would accept that as a proof of AI, not AGI. Provided it can do it repeatably and reliably. Hallucinating a proof that's 90% time wrong is just a parrot. For AGI, I would expect it to be teachable during the conversation. That is, to

I don't believe it works like that when everyone has their needs met, specifically with UBI. Possible losses from breaking the law and getting caught would drive the price of white-collar crime up non-linearly. It would also be easier

That's not communism. Closest analogy would be dictatorship. There are no 5-year plans regarding building residential housing for every employee or a company-owned hospital.
