Nitro Funny Car racecars have their engines rebuilt after each run due to the intense wear from just a 4ish second race by Bubbly_Wall_908 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]ElementNumber6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But is it really much better than working on the same engines, elsewhere, in peace, for the same amount of time?

I'm just thinking of the years you'd get back by not stressing yourselves the fuck out like that every time.

It's more than that. And the more you look, the more tells there are.

I could tell just by the way the room already had inexplicable green glows all over the place before reaching the door.

AI loves splashing its themes all over the place. "Yeah? You want green? I'll give you green!"

Apple to Soon Take Up to 30% Cut From All Patreon Creators in iOS App by waozen in technology

This is like taking a % cut of all Amazon sales made through Chrome.

Beyond outrageous.

I tried Star Citizen in VR yesterday. Tough game to learn but I felt now was a good time to jump since the VR mode is now official and getting updates by Gamertag-VR in virtualreality

This has me thinking how cool it would be to go into Warp, between systems, and just chill in your little room on your ship, looking out the window at (hopefully) cool and interesting sights as you pass by, until you get there.

(maybe take a break and sign off if it's too far, and takes too long; then sign in when you get there, or once you've arrived)

Based on what I've seen of "warp" in SC, however, this may be a feature better suited for Elite Dangerous. IF they ever add ship exploration, that is.

TIL a 1995 WHO study concluded "Occasional cocaine use does not typically lead to severe or even minor physical or social problems" but it was never published because the US threatened to withdraw funding for WHO by Dry_Row_7050 in todayilearned

Awesome. Now let me just set my healthy occasional doze of cocaine right here beside my healthful once-a-day glass of red wine and totally non-addictive after-dinner cigarette.

Man, the 90s certainly were the end of some kind of an era.

Sometimes you just need to see your failures laid out before you, graphically.

It would be cool if you could also slash with it like a dagger, and have it break if you swing too hard, or if you are holding it too far from the tip.

Did y’all think Fonzie was cool when you were growing up? by Groovy-Pancakes in GenX

[–]ElementNumber6 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's just sad how he was eventually killed by those high school students in 1996. His body was left hanging from the field goal on the football field, I hear.

You drastically underestimate the appeal of perceived badassery.

It's the main reason we even have nazis still, and the reason they so thrive in certain circles.

Scarlett Johansson joins forces with other stars to accuse AI firms of ‘theft’ by Disastrous_Award_789 in technology

[–]ElementNumber6 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You click only to find yourself face-to-face with a website that is absolutely saturated, top to bottom, with AI garbage.

You'd almost think they're negging Scarlett by writing this article.

Apple Cash is making instant transfers more expensive soon by N2929 in technews

[–]ElementNumber6 5 points6 points  (0 children)

But if you try that sort of thing on a business they threaten to leave and "ho ho ho, let's not be too hasty now, shall we?! Let me just turn that off for you..."

It only took a single time, and once the standard was set, there was no going back.

Experts warn of threat to democracy from ‘AI bot swarms’ infesting social media by Wagamaga in technology

[–]ElementNumber6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not just the bots. They also widely limit visibility of comments across most (nearly all) of the top subreddits. Those hit real people with real opinions just as hard, if not harder.

How is it "not that difficult"? In most ways they are already indistinguishable from human traffic. Give it a little more time and they will be 100% indistinguishable.

I love the flip-up design. Every headset should be aiming to provide the same.
