  Films shot on the 65mm IMAX cameras would probably make good 8K content

  So there’s still hope that they might release The Last Buffalo in 8k 3D sometime in the future? Got it. :)

  And meanwhile, name structures of similar scale built with modern engineering would probably be gone long in a fraction of the time.

  Except that if the Romans actually built high-rises, the damned things would probably still be standing.

  I’m all for an AI tax to offset the jobs replaced, with that tax going towards providing a universal basic income to those displaced workers, for life. Maybe then AI will actually be useful for something.

  Google image search yun men tsui to building. It was destroyed in the 2018 earthquake.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨One more internet meme⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Earthquake-damaged building. It was called the Yun Men Tsui To building.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨One more internet meme⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It was the Yun Men Tsui To building in Taiwan, taken after the earthquake.

  Somehow, that sounds more Christ-like than what these so-called Christians are preaching these days.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨An ex-Intel CEO’s mission to build a Christian AI: ‘hasten the coming of Christ’s return’⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sounds almost like a satanic cult…

  Here’s a little something else to think of. The government is shut down, so the purse strings are closed. And yet, a private “donation” is being given to the military. By a man who apparently has a problem with Venezuela. At the same time the world’s most powerful warship, along with its associated battle group, are headed to the Caribbean to play drug cop.

  The statistics tracked by the machine are specific to that machine alone and do not differentiate between individual players. Without a separate player tracking system, the casino has no way of tracking the play of individual players, just the total play by all players on a machine.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Truly⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Games played, bet amounts, coin in/out (win/los statements), time on machine, good knows what else.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Truly⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If you look at the point where the “I-Deck” (the horizontal touch screen that is about waist high) meets the main body of the cabinet, you’ll see what looks like a tiny display. That display is a part in of the “player tracking” system.

  I’ve installed countless numbers of them in my time as a slot tech, some of them on the Everi Empire Flex, the slot cabinet pictured.

  Last I checked, unverified software didn’t run the risk of making my phone fly itself into, and bring down, a skyscraper.

  I’m a casino slot tech. Don’t even get me started on the electronic table games that still use a dealer. Like Scotty said, “The more they overthink the plumbing, the easier it is to stop up the drain.”.
