Comment Re:Now SkyNet knows! (Score 1) 67

As long as the T-20000 didn't slowly lower itself into any pits of molten metal though, it wouldn't need to worry about its creator.

It could just recreate a manufacturing base from scratch in the prehistoric era after killing the prehumans.

I don't think Skynet's particularly attached to 'when' it exists.

I'm not going to claim that I can identify the exact amount of a sub 100 ms delay that I'm experiencing, but way back in "the day", before I got all old and sluggish, I could rather reliably play a first person shooter and headshot anybody currently visible with a jerk of the mouse.

Let's say that would be half a second to center the screen on any currently visible point. If I couldn't perceive delays of under 100 ms, I'd be off by up to 20% every time.

And that was just me being a twitchy kid with a decent amount of practice.

I would honestly be shocked if some of these eSports kids weren't good enough to detect a couple frame delay.
