According to witnesses, many passengers refused leave the sinking aircraft to get into the life rafts.
Well, you know, it was only eight years after Lifeboat... I can't really blame them.
I have to say - it's VERY depressing reading that and comparing President Eisenhower's thoughtful words with the bile, bombast, and often even absolute hatred that's regularly spewed by the current occupant of that office.
Someone's going to feed it a hardcopy of "AI For Dummies" and THEN we'll be sorry. The singularity will be upon us.
Maybe we'll get lucky and that'll make Sam Altman's head explode!
That's simplistic. I like the flavor of coffee... but sometimes I like the flavor when it's combined with cream.
I mean when someone cooks a stew, do you tell them they wouldn't have to make stew if they just bought higher-quality carrots?
And really, I don't care. I enjoy my four cups in the morning.
Of wine?
Your "medicine" isn't allowed to taste good, after all.
Nonsense, I have it on good authority (from a Very Stable Genius) that this is the most transparent administration EVAR!!
His hands off approach of what is potentially the most dangerous technology since the Nuke, was wrong? Huh... Who knew?
This "change of direction" probably has more to do with Trump and Co. being able to wet their beaks.
I don't drive like a maniac, but I probably wasn't particularly careful about the clutch... not to mention that, for some years, a fair bit of my driving was on the hills of Seattle.
Regardless, the distance you've gotten out of your clutch is extremely impressive!
It was definitely quite odd. I'm very impressed by the balance the robots displayed; on the other hand, the aiming of their attacks (which were predominantly kicks) also seemed almost unrelated to where the other robot actually was (TFS' "sometimes" is an understatement).
Each robot seemed to have a very limited set of moves - just one or two specific attack moves, but several celebration moves.
I was a bit concerned that a human might be the target for a random roundhouse kick to the head towards the end of the video.
... and it made it look almost real. So did it get a gift card to Bed, Bath, and Beyond?
After all, look at how much care Musk's DOGE team put into protecting and sequestering sensitive government data!
2015 Camry, not 2018.
Their reliability and dependability is at least on par now, and that too took a long time to achieve.
I've been married 40+ years. Until recently, I'd had manual shift cars (yes, including the Escort) and my wife has had automatics. While anecdotal, it's certainly been decades since we've had to have any significant transmission repair done - at all. With the manuals, obviously you're looking at clutches every so often.
While I enjoy driving stick, when the time came that I was ready to admit we had to replace the Escort (2018-ish), I got an 2018 Camry - which is an automatic. Part of the thinking there was about our daughter's anxiety about driving in general; but it was also true that cars with manual transmissions were few and far between... and, surprisingly, now more expensive than the same care with an automatic transmission.
I do make frequent use of the paddle shifters though, when on hills and windy roads.
How many NASA managers does it take to screw in a lightbulb? "That's a known problem... don't worry about it."
