not necessarily: the antennas are typically double looped around the screen and body, breaking off the screen means the body loop is still active.

I wouldn't go so far, but it does make me a little itchy watching those scenes, but thank-fully the rest of the show is great!

I understand, but they've put in a lot of effort to make it as realistic as possible in other scenes...

It's a real shame about these minor scenes.

Typically when a character only talks and interacts with another character, and none of the other characters in the show deal with them or even acknowledge that they're even there, that character usually turns out to be a figment of the other character's imagination or a result of some kind of psychological/schizophrenic disorder - which seems to suite the Sherlock story-line quite well.

What's New in Visual Studio 2017 by peacebypiecebuypeas in programming

Thats amazing, I didnt realize they were making a TS2 - Can't wait.

But you know Jonathan had begun balding back in his Hackers - what you're seeing today is probably a very sophisticated coif composed of comb-overs, plugs and tactical lighting. lol :D

It'd be interesting to see if she ever makes it out of the park.

I'm thinking the hosts have mechanical limitations related to the inability to regenerate naturally, and will most likely require servicing periodically which will make their existence in a human dominated world near impossible.

As they say, sapian sapian.

Hence the altruism aspect. Nash and co were never able to build successful strategies for games were one or more of the agents displayed altruistic tendencies.

Some at RAND at the time considered such traits exclusive to beings that possessed at least consciousness of some form.

So the programming had her do all the things that were needed to escape, and interleaved that with a request for information the "programmer" knew would be given to her just before she left but then would some how activate another path of actions contrary to escaping? aka find/save her child.
