My problem is that I'm very efficient. I don't burn 100W.
Anything that hooks me up to power something else without requiring my attention is worth exploring.

0.0000025% of the US population were on the winning team. I'd say that's almost no white people.
I see that you're living up to the description I gave you, by failing miserably to have any rationale or logic to your complete nonsense.
But don't go getting Cedric involved, he gets enough of my email already.
Thanks for telling people that haven't worked for credit card companies or banks what a credit line is. I already knew.
Now try telling us why it's so ethically different a financial attribute on which to base advertising than a bank balance.
his article needs taken down now, It is not factual, and the patent is for available credit, not bank account balance. there is a huie difference in both availability and ethics.
A fucking shiny toy manufacturer wants to find out your available credit and use it to target ways of getting you to part with it, and you think that's substantively from using your bank balance?
You complete fucking muppet.
Getting diagnosed was excellent for me. It hadn't occurred to me that I might have Aspergers until I went through the testing, but it suddenly explained a tremendous amount about my life.
It also means that I no longer try and act like other people. That takes a lot of pressure off me, because I can't do some of the things that others take for granted. So instead I live life my way, not the way friends and family seem to think I should. Far far happier as a result.
I've avoided contact more than once by coming to an emergency halt safely with distance to spare, looking in the mirror, realising the car behind isn't going to make it and moving forward into that spare space to give it to the guy behind.
I don't do that at junctions though, and I'm not sure how an autonomous vehicle would be able to reliably judge that a car isn't going to stop in time sufficiently accurately to then calculate the avoidance action needed, the safety of that avoidance action and the likelihood of it avoiding an accident.
Basically by the time it's clear that the accident is going to happen it's too late to accelerate away from it.
My insurance premium is £350/year. Cut it to zero and you're still going to struggle to cover the cost of the sensors, the software and the maintenance of the autonomous system.
Market forces are going to do fuck all.
it makes game compatibility a matter of "Does it run on my console?"
The games I want to play don't run on your console.
Well, I think forced updates is it.
Can't be, this was announced and has been known for at least a couple of months already.
It's why I'm waiting another six months or so before deciding whether to take the free upgrade or not. Hopefully by then it'll have gone catastrophically wrong and they'll have given users some control back, or the after-market options will exist and I'll know what I need to do to cripple the automatic update.
I don't get why you'd even try.
Surely strip the firearm down to the essentials - barrel, chamber, pin, trigger mechanism and the magazine/reload bits. No, I can't remember the proper names, and no, I don't care.
My point is that you don't need the sights, the grip, the safety catch.. the tripod mount, the carry handle, the sling hooks, the stock, the under barrel grenade launcher..
Ok, I changed my mind. Ditch everything else, keep the grenade launcher.
But cut the weight! It's not that hard to dismantle a firearm and keep it functional!
Which words? Cunt?
You acting like one doesn't mean I'm demeaning women when I use the word.
Thanks, nice to hear myself diagnosed so effectively.
Completely wrong, on most counts, but don't let that stop you spewing a message of hate.
Well, shit, women don't face problems that men do.
Don't give me nonsense about women having it so fucking tough. Check assault rates, life expectancy, relative wealth, social engagement, work/life balance, health spending and a ton of other comparators and come back to me when you have a fucking point.
. It's not a problem that men don't face problems
No, it's a fucking lie.
Men face problems too. White people do. Rich people do. Everybody does.
The whole meme about privilege is just utter fucking bullshit and anybody that pretends it's real is just a cunt that needs educating.
