Well now I have no idea what fucking argument you're making. You posted a link to the "Fire in a crowded theater" argument in response to "what law did he break," and that specific case-law for that argument shows he didn't break any! You cited an article that literally reinforces OP's question with the addition of "educate yourself" showing you're, at best, ignorant and, at worse, retarded.

Now you're telling me to go write bomb on my shit? What fucking strawman is this? If you look at the rest of the comments on this thread, it's pretty obvious it was a product that had "Bomb" in the name of the speaker. I don't know if you've ever used this magical thing called Bluetooth, but the funny thing is your can't change the identifier on most products. Very rarely you might be able to with a device specific app, but it's not common.

So this kid likely literally did nothing wrong and the passenger who made a big deal about it is as stupid as this elementary school teacher:

..and I bet you'd probably do the same retarded shit in the same situation.

The vaccines were the most untested novel drugs ever released on humanity in modern regulatory history and they have killed millions of people. Blood clots, turbo cancers, athletes facing of heart disease at age 30 ... if you think the jabs were truly neutral, I don't understand what insane scientism religious fantasy world you live in.

As regards to the mosquitos, messing with a major piece of the ecosystem will have consequences. Humanity's hubris is on fully display.

Yea exactly. At least this way more information will be public. I bet they're padding their numbers a lot and I hope they deeply underestimate the ability of people to comb through their docs and find all the stuff worded to fool AI tools. I don't see how either Anthropic or OpenAI can sustain their current compute with their current subscriptions. I want to see both of them taken down several pegs before we see the disaster of a collapsing home computer industry.

Comment Half-Life and Counterstrike (Score 2) 9

In the 2000s, you cold play Half-Life 2 Team Fortress, Counterstrike or any mods totally offline hosting your own server. Blizzard sent a cease and desist to bnetd and that open source project took everything down (I still have the ancient rpm somewhere) because people we using it to get past product key protection on Warcraft 3.

Consumers didn't demand local servers. Halo and Halo II were fully playable offline on your local network, between two xboxes. We have regressed so far and people have accepted so much from shitty game companies. It's not just about "release the damn server." It's "stop suing people for reverse engineering their own servers!"

Comment Uranium (Score 1) 129

There was a company in Tennessee that had the contract for turning enriched weapons grade uranium into fuel, but it was flooded out during Hurricane Helene. There was also a company run by an Israeli decades ago with a contract which stole insane amounts and is the reason Israel has a weapons program (unofficially). All of Israel's nuclear tech was stolen from the US and Russia.

It would be great if we could use weapons grade fuel in reactors. It was such a waste to turn so much of it into warheads. But no one has been able to do it yet. I doubt any startup could make fuel for current reactors either. You would likely need completely different reactors and fuel rod designs to reuse this fissile material for power, and America doesn't have any of the steel manufacturing facilities left to even make a nuclear pressure vessel today.

If Intel hadn't fucked up their 13th gen processors so bad, at least some of that manufacturing would be back in the US by now. Hell, if they hadn't dropped Optaine, they might be able to turn around and manufacture DRAM right now! Now they are partially owned by the US government and nVidia and have a true Chinese lackey at the wheel with no original ideas and who will never be a Pat Gelsinger.

Interested on Games Nexus take on this. I'm pretty sure it will be in their hardware news segment. I personally rarely use my Windows box anymore. My hacked PS4 Pro is my main gaming system now. My PS5 is sitting disconnected from the Internet until a 10.40 firmware hack is discovered. Fuck both nVidia and Sony.
