In Germany, even paintings, comics AND WRITTEN STORIES can be considered child porn. Because we need to save imaginary children from imaginary violence...

Yeah, I'm sure that rising number has nothing to do with increasingly weird laws... For example in Germany it can be classified as "child porn" to have an actor act childish and LOOK like they theoretically COULD be under 18 - even if the actor proves to be an adult in front if the camera, for example by providing legal documents. Also even innocent pictures of, for example, children playing on the beach are increasingly classified as porn now. I'm not trying to marginalize a real, existing problem here, but it doesn't help that jurisdictions world-wide actively inflate the statistics for their own agendas. Quite the opposite in fact...

But doen't the scientific process also mean, that we have to think about a theory and its possibilities before dismissing it?

Yes. And that's why they go for the more expensive model approach instead of the cheap CGI. *double facepalm*

Yes. My brain.
And it's leaving the solar system too. More often than my doctors like it to.

All stars pictured here are at least 18 years or older.

Why haven't I thought of that before?
Gonna print out a sign for my bathroom saying "#OccupyToilet" right now!

> Anyway, there is currently nothing available on Android that is comparable to Siri.

There isn't? So what's wrong with the different AI tools for Android (iris, EVA intern, speaktoit assistant, ...)?

> but GEMA is not kidnapping them and making them work for nothing

Oh really? If you're not signed with them they keep making money with your music anyway (aka your work):

- Radio and TV stations have to pay per played track
- Restaurants, clubs, pubs too
- Public events too
- Hell, even schools and kindergartens have to pay. Last christmas they fined teachers because the children were singing christmas songs in public!

If your an independent artist and your music is played, the organizer would have to send a form for EVERY ONE of your tracks including your name, address, a statement that you aren't signed with GEMA and so on. As you can imagine it's cheaper for organizers to just go with it and pay for the independent tracks too.

So no, you don't have a choice. GEMA is gonna make money with your work weather you like it or not.

And BTW: If you sign with them, you even have to FUCKING PAY TO THEM IF YOU WANT TO PUT YOUR OWN TRACKS ON YOUR OWN WEBSITE!

Every time I read "for science", I think "For science! You monster..."

Damn Memes.

Learn a new language.
And do it for fun, not because you "need" to.

- Hey, I heard you won a big prize for your latest paper! That's so cool. What was it about?
- Packing spheres into a cylinder.
- Ahem... I think I'll go somewhere else now...

In addition to the usual Voice Search and Voice Control tools I have on my android phone 4 (!) tools that do pretty much what Siri does:

- Iris
- Speaktoit Assistant
- EVA Intern
- Pocket Blonde

AFAIK all but one were around before Siri.

So where exactly is the "2 year advantage"?
