Something similar has been in The Division games for many years already.

Yeah, I was going to ask if it was dumber than it was last month, when Slashdot reported on it...

While I'm in complete agreement with you regarding the liquid resistance issue for a device with a removable section, I'd love a replaceable battery not because of when the battery dies, but for the times when I'm using my phone for long periods of time and suddenly notice that my battery is almost dead. I can just swap the battery and continue using my device without having to find a place where I can charge it while I'm still using it...

It could be that the aggrieved party had some claim to the IP that was used in the AI and spinning off a new company could have opened them up to possibly more litigation. Getting the shareholder to relinquish any claim to the company would be a good way to get hold of any IP that was developed for the initial venture.

I don't know the full story, my comment is based on what little information I have read...

He may have been one of the founders but he was a minority shareholder and may not have been 'in the loop' regarding R&D that was being done outside the primary scope of what he believed was the companies goals. The courts give minority shareholders a bit more wiggle room regarding major decisions made by the company as a whole. If he was intentionally misled or kept from knowing the potential that other shareholders believed were possible, then he might have a pretty good case.

So, India is going to be read into the big 'ball earth' conspiracy, eh? I wonder what kind of forms NASA makes you fill out to be privy to that information?

I'm not surprised that The Rings of Power didn't do very well. They tried to make a captivating TV series about an epoch in Middle Earth where they only had the rights to a small part of the source material, so they had to create new characters and story elements to move things along. So, pretty much right off the bat they alienated most of the hardcore Tolkien fanbase.

Except that all the ACTUAL evidence, (other than the anecdotal 'evidence' put forth by the right wing) contradicts that any of these social media companies were working at the behest of ANY government officials. Even though government officials had been in contact with some social media outlets to submit reports on possible issues, every single party involved testified under oath that there was no coercion or backdoor instructions as to what to do, the social media companies were free to implement their own policies that were already in place.

I'm guessing the submitter is on the Morning Brew list as that was one of the top stories this morning.

Not that I agree with the design decision, but to some degree I see why a single design entertainment system would be preferred over physical buttons and knobs as it negates the need to have multiple dashboard designs across models. One head unit with a touch screen can be used in every vehicle design, the look and feel is dictated by software at that point.

Except that George Harrison isn't around to put down any guitar tracks so not really a Beatles song.

Like us, I know a lot of people that use Netflix and have no need to share their password with anyone so this isn't a real deal breaker for me. However, I've been considering terminating our account because the selection of programs outside the US is just abysmal. Yeah, there are some Canadian only exclusives but nothing that's really THAT great. Not too long ago, we had both a US and Canadian account, sure it cost us twice the amount but I could log into the US account and watch US content whenever I wanted. Netflix stopped doing that and initiated some form of geofencing that seems to be not very difficult to bypass using a VPN service. I find that I'm watching Netflix less and less each month so when it gets to the point where I go two full months without wanting to watch anything on Netflix, then we'll cancel our service.

My sentiments exactly! She's a criminal that took advantage of the entire medical community, please stop giving this woman a public voice.

While a good deal of animation involves some form of human input or interaction, there are scenarios where the computer will interpolate movement between 2 key frames that you define. Could this qualify as AI generated content?
