Why is it that your reaction, SuperKendall, is knee jerk "it must be okay"? Was it the "forest" part of the article?

Hmm. Forest? Forest == Tree. Tree == Tree hugger. Tree hugger == hippie. Hippie == those fucking fucks I'm supposed to hate.

Fucking libtards.

The losses of forests must be due to some natural variation in the solar cycles and phases of the moon, i.e., it is good for humanity and good for the Free Market.

Submission + - Tesla's Model S will add self-driving 'autopilot' mode in three months (theverge.com)

pitchpipe writes:

Tesla's preparing a software update that will bring powerful auto-steering functionality to its Model S fleet ... CEO Elon Musk revealed that Tesla will ship a software update "in about three months" that will turn on auto-steering, or "autopilot" as Musk often refers to it. "We can basically go between San Francisco and Seattle without the driver doing anything," Musk said of the autonomous system that Tesla has developed. For now, you'll only be able to engage auto-steering on highways.

This is sort of like lane assist on steroids.

I don't fucking get it: you believe that global warming is happening, yet you reject the theory that scientists have put forth to explain the phenomenon. A theory well grounded in science, that makes predictions that we see coming true every day, and that the vast majority of experts actually working in the field subscribe to. A phenomenon for which no other plausible (at this juncture) theory has been put forth.

Do you ever feel the need to examine why you so strongly want to disbelieve the theory?

What on earth is "an Uruguay syndrom", and why does google have no idea either.

And I thought that /.ers were supposed to be smart.

No need to be a smug dick about it...

Oh! There was a need ... there was a terrible need.

Pay no attention to that massive whooshing sound you hear ...

An Uruguay Syndrom[e] is very similar to Collins' Syndrome, except that it is much bigger and involves radiation from uranium fission instead of Cesium/Deuterium. Think of it as an Atlantis Complex times 100.

There, was that so hard?

Seriously, is there any doubt that a computer can easily defeat a human at ___________ that involves _____________?

Of course not. Whenever a computer defeats a human easily, of course it isn't true AI. Computers were better at that all along. Leave that to computers so that humans can do the truly human work.
