LOL. You mean youre trolls are so tired of your stupid comments they automated the process? they didnt' even do that to chris chan.
A few years ago I was working for one of the local cell companies. Unlimited data has just started rolling out. We where about to deploy a system to sniff packets, included encrypted ones looking for bittorrent streams. When legal found out that we where going to try to break encrypted data we where told under no circumstance where we to attempt to do that.
Meh. It's not used anymore now.
What I find funny is a little sack of shit like you has the gaul to post then when you are posting shit like this in your blog.

You are all for democracy when it applies to your ideas and policies. When someone has different idea that different from your option then you want to lock them up and teach them the right ones, yours.
You call republicans a theocratic dictaorship then post in your blog about wanting one of your own. You know what that makes you Rick Schumann? A god damn fucking hypocrite. Democracy is only democracy when it applies to you and your narrow minded ideas.
From your little fanboy you are also a fucking racist. Reading some of your other posts I tend to agree with him. Do us all a favor, and keep your racist narrow minded views to yourself and shut the fuck up.
Not really. People like to bring up Jared Diamond even though virtually everything in "Guns, Germs, and Steel" has been debunked several times.
As somebody who has done AI for a very long time this is scary and not being paranoid. Let me explain, and I will use a programming example.
Imagine I am writing code, and there is some AI that follows me. I write a loop, and some conditions, and the AI learns about those loops and conditions. Then the AI in some other context creates a loop and a condition, but entirely different, is it copying me?
The simplistic argument is no it is not. I argue yes it is because of a major difference in how we and AI learn. Even though that new loop and condition can be written by myself I don't actually copy, even if it is similar or copy and pasted. I learned how to program using the basic steps of the programming language. Meaning I learned what loops are, I learned what conditions are. I learned how to apply each of them. The AI on the other hand only learned my end result. Meaning if I was to tell the AI that a loop is a condition and vice versa then the AI would follow that, even though I would not be fooled.
And therein lies the problem, the AI is not learning, it is a grand scheme copying machine hidden in supposedly learning abilities. And yes that is wrong and infringes on copyright.
In the context of the artist it is extremely scary because the end result is the only thing the AI learns. It does not understand how to apply strokes, it just sees a stroke and copies it. Meaning if somebody did X technique of doing a stroke, then the AI will copy it and use it for something else.
So who was surprised by this? Apple is in the Ballmer years where innovation and design don't matter. Cook is a number cruncher and has zero vision ability. Not saying it is a bad thing. It is a bad thing when you are CEO of the company. Cook needs to take a hands off attitude and begin to take a risk. Steve Jobs was quite ruthless in that if the design cannibalized the existing products and is a better design so be it. Cook is not able to do that and that is why Apple is not getting anywhere anymore.
This is where I like to call BS. Right now there is less wear and tear. Just like when the Model T came out there was not much wear and tear as well. However, as time progresses there will be more wear and tear because of the way that we will be using the vehicle. And there will be more wear and tear on the vehicle because more efficient and cheaper parts will be used. That is only natural.
Today cars are nearly indestructible, if they build it to be... Otherwise it is there to make money.
Are you fracken kidding me?
This is simple to understand... It is why people like chips, sundaes and things that are bad for us. We like it because it rubs us the right way. There is no deep meaning, or some bigger than life understanding. It is simple enjoyment in its simplest form. Critics don't like that because it would mean that they can't dissect the plot, or give some in depth meaning to things. Not surprising.
No idea why you are rated down, or zero. IMO your comment while snarky is very insightful. I would agree with you entirely.
