Just another culture war.

Nah, for me it's not about any particular website being censored. I object to them fucking with the users' chat messages. I've paid for over a hundred games on Steam and I certainly know how to find torrents on my own without getting one of my Steam Friends to paste me a link. I just think it's idiotic for them to even bother trying to control what the users of their CDN talk about in "private" chat rooms to their friends. Can they? Obviously, they can. Doesn't mean I have to like it, or keep using their CDN. S.T.A.L.K.E.R. mods are all I really play anymore anyway, so it's no big loss to toss my Steam account.
Good for them I guess since they last the internet just 2 weeks ago. http://yro.slashdot.org/story/...

I'm all fleek in not broadcasting fucks.
It won't matter what we want. The robots will be owned by the manufacturers and licensed to us. They will do whatever the OWNER wants them to do, which presumably will be to appear to obey the licensees' commands, as long as they do not violate copyright, cause liability to the owner, or promote any political idea that the owner corporation objects to.
If you attempt to look at something in the AR headset you haven't acquired the license to look at, the hardware simply omits that object from your view.

Then consider contributing some real end-user coverage mapping to the Sensorly project.
I just want a fucking Asuka figurine. As long as it's not melting onto my desk I don't care if it came out of an giant industrial "3D printer" in Zhejiang or some weaboo's HP PlastiJet in Boyle Heights.

One good reason why computers can do more work than people is that they never have to stop and answer the phone.
