I’ve had android phones since the G1. The Nexus One was pretty freaking sweet, but my favorite phone of all time was either the Nexus S or the Nexus 5x. The curved screen on the S was great and it fit into the back pocket of my pants “like a glove”.
How do you know it isn’t now? (see: Dead-Internet Theory)
You’re not missing anything but ads. I cannot understand the Sync hype and attribute all posts about it to promotion.
This would be so easily bypassed that the whole concept, while technologically cool, is completely useless. Someone could apply a very subtle smoothing filter and then do whatever they wanted with it after via stable diffusion (or use the myriad of alternative methods to remove the “protection”).
I wouldn’t be trying to use or adapt it; it was more of an intellectual curiosity. I haven’t written scrapers or used Tcl, so, yeah, I would be interested to take a peek :-)
I’d like to write something similar, but I’d probably use Lisp or Python.
Are you willing to share the source for said bot?
Thanks. Is “if you add more matter it can blow up the Higgs”, because the Higgs only interacts via gravity, or something?
You use words like “squarks” and “neutralinos”, which sound very similar to quarks and neutrons. What’s the difference, if you don’t mind explaining? Also, since I know almost nothing about this, if the dark matter is weakly interacting, shouldn’t it pull itself into a really small area eventually? If there isn’t a negative repulsion between dark matter components, like there is with electrons and via the weak field, why doesn’t it all just collect itself in a giant clump?
“Twitter… [is] a goddamn blight.”
You should check out the book “Daemon” by Daniel Suarez (if you haven’t already). Based on your post, you’d probably like it a lot. There’s a sequel, too: “Freedom”.
I have mixed feelings about measuring their wealth based on share prices because they couldn’t sell their shares without tanking the price, right? Elon didn’t actually increase his wealth; just the value of something that he has a shitton of went up.
We could also tank the value of his stocks by not buying or using his stupid shit!. For example, anyone angry that he is rich should definitely not be using Twitter.
“Eat the rich”… blah blah blah. Much easier to just protest the rich and take our money back by not giving it or our time to the rich in the first place.
Same. I’m not a conspiracy theorist. However, most top Google results are those garbage sites that are definitely not written by humans. I wonder if search will die soon as bots begin to dominate SEO (more than they already do). The search paradigm will definitely have to change.
