So could a fucking Dyson sphere. This article is PopMech-tier speculative trash. A flying car in every driveway, any day now since the 1960s…

Is hackintosh not still a thing? Did they neuter it somehow? Or are we just not considering that since it’s a pain in the ass to set up and works out of the box on a very limited selection of hardware?

Updated version of the “turn the water off while you’re brushing your teeth” ads in the 80s/90s. If you can afford ad spend, you’re a bigger problem than the people targeted by it.

- Comment on Oblivion remake is... really making it apparent how outdated Bethesda is in its approach to making games 1 week ago:
whatever Bethesda used to be it stopped being that 20 years ago
I agree with the general sentiment, but 20 is a bit of a stretch given that it misses Fallout 3, NV, 4, the original release of Oblivion, and Skyrim. Twenty years ago was the start of their golden era, in my book.

The movie you’re thinking of is Her with Joaquin Phoenix and Scarlett Johansson, and in the story she’s a true general AI.

Apparently there’s some disagreement about whether any of the other modern great apes should be included in the “hominid” definition, though.

- Comment on Games Where Nothing Happens (SPOILERS for various game plots) 1 week ago:
Hmm I knew about the crab Rangoon one but not this. Interesting. Also, does anyone know if New Dawn is any good? I’ve skipped the “expansion” titles in the series because I was not a fan of Blood Dragon, but it feels like I’m not giving New Dawn and Primal their due when all the mainline entries in the series have been fantastic.

I’ve never priced one that high, but I’d suspect 16" screen and multi-TB nvme are the main culprits.

In the original Constitution, there are no limits for any of them. George Washington made it a tradition not to seek a third term, but it wasn’t actually enshrined into law until ~150 years later.

The streaming services are run by shithead C-suites who think last quarter is the way it’s always been. They forget the only reason most of us use their services is someone more visionary than them made it more convenient than piracy half a generation ago. Let’s remind them there’s an alternative.
