Friendly note for those that use iBooks. Ibooks spawns a storeaccountd process that relentlessly fires off so many internet connection attempts that it actually maxes your computer's CPU, get's your fans all worked up, and rapidly

Jet sounds pretty disingenuous to me. "We're basically not making a dime on any of the transactions." - If that's how you really feel then take the word basically out. You are making money off transactions but you wo

I'm not sure this is a legitimate concern and you're kind of just spreading FUD with posts like this.

I think the concept of being able to see your "points" at all is non-constructive for communication. Why should it matter to you if other people up or down vote your comments and submissions? So through a knee-jerk feedback mechan

I don't think they have the personality to bring users over 22 to the site. The super-hip parties and don't-give-a-shit attitude works great for attracting pop-culture based young-ins but I feel those of us a bit less enticed by f

I don't really understand why this is worth thinking about. It's not like I can't have people over to my house 'cos my floor and couches are covered in emails. It's not like I'm signing up for everything I poss

This is not copyright infringement. The original "work" is much to small and fact based to be enforceable copyrightable material and the visual style is a default theme. This is inspiration and a bit of copying but certainly not b

You don't get it. Science relies on published peer reviewed, repeatable, testable evidence. Not the authority of famous, rich, or even smart people. You can accept authority as much as you personally want, but the reason society progre

So it relies on a not yet understood law of physics. I don't think it's in any way reasonable to fear or plan our actions around not yet discovered physical laws.

I think the problem is DNA. If we could get rid of it we'd be better off.

You are not making a cohesive argument. First you were arguing that OP was essentially saying we shouldn't "give a fuck about anything." Now you're arguing that we should "start thinking about it now." Those ar

Uh huh, and once we realize the networks are compromised in this way we're just going to let it happen. Forever until we're all dead. And the machines are going to trust the dude with enough money to buy a factory. And the dude is

He's saying that regardless of the hypothesized danger, until there is measurable, non sci-fi proof, it's all just fear mongering. Not that we shouldn't "give a fuck about anything."

I'm sure Hawking and Musk are smarter and more knowledgeable on the subject than either of us... That is not a reasonable argument. They have demonstrated nothing but a fear and postulation and we cannot accept authority as evidence.

How would an AI exactly exterminate humans? Are we talking about it physically murdering us or just making us so depressed as to our comparative lack of intelligence that we kill ourselves?

Parasites can have multiple host species, some in which they are benign and some in which they are deadly. Malaria has been killing humans for thousands of years. Also for example, HIV.

How exactly does it end the human race? It takes over our cars and drives us all off a cliff? It infects all computers and overheats the batteries? This planet is well suited to biological life, it'd be pretty hard to kill all of us. H

It's not a security measure it's the truth. One or more of them is invalid, it's up to the user to decide what they meant to input.

Imagining what you would do with 1Gbps is difficult because bandwidth of that speed is not common. If such bandwidth were common, products specifically leveraging it would also be. Better streaming, easier remote backup, more devices connec

Damn, one time $300 fee for "Up to" 5 Mbps download and 1 Mbps upload. That's like getting free internet for 6 and a half years[1] from current providers after 6 months. And if you want to upgrade you've already got the
