I mean they didnt do it to an actual living creature, but yeah its still pretty fucked up if you think about it, we emulated a brain and then dropped it in literally a virtual recreation of 'hell'...
Do not create the Torment Nexus.
Holmes faked her demonstrator.
Don't think you can fake rockets. She's already launched one.
Has she? Which mission? I looked and can't find anything on the rocket she (or her company) launched, but maybe I'm just missing something.
Good timing. I bought my first BMW in 2007. I'm planning on a new M2 next year.
Sweet. You'll be able to look forward cool features such as forced ads on the in-car screens (https://tech.slashdot.org/story/26/08/06/0414254/bmw-blasts-its-cars-internal-screens-with-aggressive-ads) and paying a subscription for heated seats (https://tech.slashdot.org/story/22/07/12/1616236/bmw-starts-selling-heated-seat-subscriptions-for-18-a-month). No idea why you would want to continue with a company that does stuff like that, but it's your money. I prefer car companies that don't nickle and dime me (or try to sell my attention to other companies) after I've already bought the car.
They love security data that they control. Once they realize that cameras tell the world who loves kids most, cameras will be pointing at the birds.

You're the one who misused the word, don't get all offended. Just for reference:
discrete: [dih-skreet] / dskrit /
adjective
1. apart or detached from others; separate; distinct.
six discrete parts.
Synonyms:
unconnected, individual, different
2. consisting of or characterized by distinct or individual parts; discontinuous.
Here's the word it appears you were trying to use:
discreet:[dih-skreet] / dskrit /
adjective
1. judicious in one's conduct or speech, especially with regard to respecting privacy or maintaining silence about something of a delicate nature; prudent; circumspect.
Homophones are HARD, right?
Their argument is (financially) motivated reasoning blatantly ignoring the fact that their artists
They have no artists. They buy existing copyrights and sue people, that's their business.
Texas has installed more renewables than anywhere else in the world in the past few years
[citation needed]
For Texas, I'm finding 2024 numbers from the Texas Economic Development Corp. here and it touts adding 9,700 MW of solar in 2024. Meanwhile, China installed 277,000 MW of solar in 2024. I'm not readily finding numbers for wind, but I don't really need to -- you're the one making the outlandish claim, you need to provide the data.
Yes, I'm saying if they follow the processes PROSCRIBE BY SOCIETY that they shouldn't be sent to jail.
Step 1: engage your brain
Step 2: maybe comment
Certainly they could be sent to jail in that case. Because you don't know what "proscribe" means. Here's a hint:
proscribed; proscribing
1: to publish the name of as condemned to death with the property of the condemned forfeited to the state
2: to condemn or forbid as harmful or unlawful : prohibit
Maybe you should try step 1 of your system before step 2.
Because I don't see them using SpaceX
Why wouldn't they? They already launched 72 satellites on Falcon 9 (24 * 3 launches) and have already contracted 10 more Falcon 9 launches.
Folks who wanna do that have been using gopros for years, theres maybe arguments to be made about a more exact POV vs slightly above or to the side for certain things, but theres still not a whole lot of reasons to use secret spy glasses instead of a superior but more obvious gopro besides secret spy reasons.
US has power outages regularly, and much of the developed world, such as Europe, does not
Bullshit. Europe has blackouts. For example, the 2025 Iberian Peninsula Blackout which affected 55 MILLION people and killed 8 people. Kinda puts the numbers in the summary in perspective.
they didn't have orbital technology thirty years ago
According to wiki they launched their first orbital satellite in 1970, more than 30 years ago.
/., don't use "dropped" to mean released (for example, the recent story "Android 17 Drops For Pixel Phones and Watch" while also using the same fucking word to mean "will not be carrying". If your job title is "Editor", try editing once in a while.
That parts gonna happen anyway.
Even if battery energy density started getting close to that of liquid hydrocarbons, and thats a looong way off still, youd still need more batteries than you would fuel because batteries dont get lighter as they discharge like burned fuel does, rocket equation stuff. A 747 carries ~150k kilograms of fuel, if that didnt burn off thats an extra 37k kg the first quarter of the flight, an extra 75k kg the first half of the flight and so on...
Battery planes may never make widespread sense, if we ever start generating enough carbon free energy cheaply enough and even if all ground transport goes battery electric or whatever, at some point it might still be worth it to just make carbon neutral jet fuel with air fuel synthesis. That seems closer on the horizon than the battery tech needed for large planes to be feasible, hard to beat jet turbines for that application.
Advertising may be described as the science of arresting the human intelligence long enough to get money from it.
