His argument only works if the failings of human vision are ones of actual vision, but they're not. It also equates human vision to that of a camera feed, which again, is not at all the same. A camera feed is FAR more detailed within a particular scene than human vision which is highly dependant on awareness, and scanning the scene as our fovea is the only real part of our vision that can see detail.

Most of the mistakes people make are ones of attention. It is very rarely to almost never because of an optical illusion.

That's the bar he has to compete with.

Also, LIDAR is basically vision, but with a focus on 3D depth instead of texture.

The question is, how important is 3D depth? Not very. It doesn't really matter if that car is 50 meters away or 55 meters away. What matters is it's approach speed, orientation, trajectory, etc. All of which are done just fine by "vision only" systems.

The assertion that the new Digg is a Reddit clone is ridiculous, since Reddit was a Digg clone!

Remember, Digg came first.

They are not in use successfully.

This is the lie.

If they were, they would have the dominant market share, and they don't.

Do you know how old my Windows install is? It's almost a decade old.

I've had to reinstall Linux twice in the last 3 months.

My MacOS install was something like 15 years old, before I switched away from Macs.

Unless you are running Linux in a stable environment, like on a server, it is a horrible operating system where users have to constantly battle driver issues, hardware compatibility, kernel bugs, instability, and regular reinstalls.

It's very simple, if this wasn't true, it would be the dominant operating system on the market. The proof that what I'm saying is correct is evident by Linux's market share.

Servers, embedded systems, locked down devices, all very successful Linux platforms, because they are all incredibly stable environments.

Desktop OS's? Not stable environments, not good for Linux, and this is why the Linux market share is so small.

People aren't stupid. They would pick free over paid, open over closed, and privacy over abuse, if it was viable.

By saying otherwise, you are effectively arguing that the majority of people are just fucking stupid, and that is simply not the case.

God damn, you Linux apologists always have an excuse.

You know what I was you don't have to do that for? Windows. It just fucking works.

Also, I did my research. This is a newly introduced bug, for a long-standing issue with the Linux kernel.

The links kernel has a long-standing issue where it has trouble enumerating changes on the PCI bus while in sleep mode.

Considering this is a basic requirement for modern laptops, it's kind of fucked up that the Linux kernel doesn't handle this properly.

Do you know which kernels do? The windows kernel, and the Darwin kernel.

No one needs notepad to run their OS. ...and the only major windows outage was the crowd strike issue, which is actually crowd strikes fault, because crowd strikes software is literally a rootkit that sucks ass.

A fresh virgin install of Windows is incredibly stable on almost every supported hardware configuration on the face of the planet. This is not the case with any Linux distro.

Yup, you are indeed.

The Kernel is literally riddled with active open bugs on current hardware.

I'm not talking about application support.

I'm talking about the current kernel having serious bugs on current hardware that have been unresolved for months.

This does not happen on Windows. Ever. Period.

I hate this lie that everyone tells that Linux based OSs are viable as desktop operating systems.

They are not.

Linux based OSs are great for servers, and embedded systems where the hardware and network configuration are static.

Desktops and notebooks do not have static hardware or network configurations, and as a result the user experience is terrible. Kernel bugs numerous, driver support is terrible, and application support is unstable to say the least. I have never had an OS that is THIS unstable in my life, even going back to the days of Windows 98 and 95.

People who say that this isn't their experience are either lying, have very low standards, or very poor memories.

and

mean two totally different things.

means that heart failure occurred in the worlds first stem-cell treatment for Parkinson's patients approved by Japan.

means that Japan approved stem-cell treatment for Parkinson's and heart failure patients.

Grammar matters. It's one thing if you're still able to get your point across, but this headline is ambiguous at best.

Piracy used to specifically be SELLING unauthorized copies of media.

Not too long ago, you used to be legally allowed to share and make copies of your media for friends and family, so long as you weren't SELLING them copies of it.

Piracy was strictly limited to people who were making MONEY off the backs of other peoples work. Making money of the backs of other peoples work IS wrong. Making a copy for a friend, or sharing a copy to others is not. No money is exchanging hands, no payment of any kind is being made, it should NOT be piracy.

This is super sad, yet another great in the early computing industry is gone.

We're going to be losing more and more of these people as time goes buy and our industry gets older.

If you know computers and operating systems well, you'll know that all the major operating systems, whether it be MacOS, Windows, or Linux are all very stable and reliable. The problems arrive when people install kernel modules, extensions, or drivers that have bugs in them, OR when hardware defects are present.

This isn't surprising news to anyone who's worked in the industry at all.

The only time I've had Windows, Linux or MacOS crash in recent history was when there were hardware issues, OR when there were faulty kernel level drivers, extensions, modules, etc. This is why Apple so agressively disallows you installing kernel extensions into MacOS.

Ummm, yeah it did. A bunch of stocks plummeted on that day, some near or at double digits. there's a lot of fucking cherry picking being done to make crypto look like it was worse than the market as a whole. Bitcoin was down like 7%, but then again so was Shopify.

They literally took the worst example of crypto and was like "The sky is falling!" but didn't do the same thing for the rest of the whole stock market, which was also down dramatically on that day.

This is FUD.

The only propaganda being spread here is the one by Anonymous Coward.

The whole market dropped by double digits yesterday. Why single out crypto?

The crypto FUD is almost as pervasive as crypto scams.

That's a very ignorant argument to make, because it completely ignores the fact that the individuals in a corporation all have their individual rights already, so why should they get extra rights because they formed a corporation?

That would mean that the only thing stopping someone from having the rights of 20 people, is The money to establish and run 20 separate corporations in their name, which is exactly what's happening!

Do you see how ignorant and asinine that argument is?

Yes, in fact a labor union was one of the lobbying groups that sued to be able to do campaign contributions.

All corporations are legal persons under the law in the US. Except, they can't go to jail when they do illegal shit, and they have resources that far outweigh what any individual person would have, thus making them impossible to compete against for individual people.
