Loved that show.

Don’t worry, you can upgrade to Duolingo Max for even more money and have the AI explain it. (Seriously.)

Hey guys, got this really great idea. We generate a lot of electricity, and then we use that to make compressed hydrogen, and then we use that for our cars. Also we need to figure out how to warehouse it for fueling, and how to transfer it, and how to store it effectively once it’s in the car, but once we get through ALL of that then we’ll finally have a hydrogen powered future and we can…. Wait we could just put the electricity from the first step into the car and eliminate the rest?

I threw it on an old PC a few weeks ago and am pleasantly surprised at how polished it is.

Other than the takeoff and landing, cars have to deal with those obstacles as well.

A computer running a citywide automated traffic system for cars would have all the same complexity, without the ability to separate traffic in three dimensions.

There are a whole lot less obstacles and unknowns in the air, as well as more planes (ha!) of separation available than a car.

When flying, you don’t really need to worry much about random pedestrians, for example.

If the entire system were completely automated, from the car all the way to ATC, and it’s essentially a taxi that you just tell what location to go to and it handles the rest… well that’s basically air traffic today minus the automated ATC part. (That isn’t to diminish pilots at all; just that I think it’d be a lot easier, in general, to replace a pilot than a taxi driver with automation. They’re both still extremely challenging problems.)

And that should make me feel better about spending $80?

I hope they are because there’s no damn way I’m spending $70+ on a video game, and since Nintendo never drops its game prices, I might as well just wait.

Damn I am glad every day I cancelled this shit, and I started as a customer back in under “please mail me DVDs” phase. This company has completely lost itself.

Holy crap. My theater is $15 per ticket for the giant screen and I still think it’s a rip-off. It used to be — and not like 20 years ago, two years ago — that same ticket was $8-10, depending on the film. They’ve also added surcharges for evening showings, so that $15 ticket after 6pm is now an $18 ticket. My pricing has gone up 30-120% depending on when the showtime is. And this is a rural theater. I don’t even want to know what the establishments closer into the city are charging.

I’m never spending $100 just on tickets; that money could go a much longer distance at home with AppleTV+ or Max or whatever.

In my experience, the secret is a big jug of fake popcorn flavoring. Yum.

When even the rural theaters are $10+ per ticket, it’s much easier and cheaper to make movie theater popcorn at home at wait for it to hit streaming. A movie outing for my family is like $120 each time with tickets and concessions and such. They should diversify, or they’re going to follow arcades into the dustbin of entertainment history. Ironically maybe this will be a thing that brings arcades back too.

What the fuck

Cars are like onions; they make you cry.

I think you only need the controller or phone app for setup or config changes. Though it is easier, in my opinion, to just run a controller. You can (at least last time I checked) still self host one if you like. If you’re just doing network config and monitoring, you don’t need much in terms of performance.

Yep. This is the way. G4 Pro is pretty good, too.

Duuuuuh. (This wasn’t meant as a dig at you just … yeah)

“States Rights” is a dog whistle. It’s the solution when it suits them and the enemy when it does not.

Might as well squander any potential leads we may have had on the next generation of technology because everyone knows only next quarter matters.

/s for the fucking smooth brains reading this

Not even close. It’s better than launch, but not by much. Still some infuriating workflows.
