This is absurd. A waste of 5 minutes.


Cold Fusion is completely unnecessary. It requires massive amounts of energy to start the reaction and once it's producing any power, it produces hundreds of times more power than we could effectively use. If the public opinion could be changed regarding fission energy we would have more than enough. Thorium was already developed in the 50s and 60s, we just need to implement it.


Why aren't we using thorium then?


Because thorium reactors don't produce weapons-grade plutonium.


Let's not forget Steve Jobs, he said that many of his insights regarding simplicity in hardware and UX design were due to his experiences dropping Acid. Even later in life he said that he could never truly connect with anyone who had never taken LSD and that his friendship with Tim Cook represented the closest friendship he could have with anyone who had never taken it.


Huh. Tim Cook never took LSD? Maybe that’s why Apple has gone so downhill under his reign.


Except (at least in the U.S.) the field of political opinion is rotated 90 degrees. It should be Fascists vs Libertarians, but instead Republicans take the social side of Fascism and fiscal side of Libertatianism, and vice versa for Democrats. So IMO neither party takes a logical position.


Oh, so Democrats more than Republicans prioritize spending on the military and security state, and particularly on a corporatist engagement between industry and the State both in general and particularly in those domains?

Seems to me that of you are viewing the world through a Fascism vs. Libertarianism lens and trying to apply that to US party political the current Republicans take the social side of Fascism and also the fiscal side of Fascism.


I know that I'm not, but I think that I am.


This is a very popular belief and it's how we run the entire criminal justice system.


oh boole


I almost exclusively base my phone purchasing decisions on the specs listed on gsmarena.com. They list specifications in sufficient detail for my needs, and on more recent devices provide DxOMark scores and test images which can be easily compared with other phones. Of course you can also compare spec lists side by side. I find that as smartphones become more advanced and the depth of my knowledge increases, I am more concerned with hitting my own checklist of specs and individual features rather than some reviewers arbitrary list of what they find important.


Did you upload the full version or just the lite version? It looks awesome by the way, really cool idea!


Thanks :)

The full version has a lot of my own personal configurations in there so I haven't uploaded it yet. It also requires a good video card so it's expensive to run.

I'm still working on the lite version as you've probably seen. It comes down to trying to make the right tradeoffs when computational power is scarce. I'll be uploading the lite version's tandem Detection Server as a Docker file along with it.

Which one are you interested in?


Apparently this is Vero's gimmick, but that's coming directly from them so take it with a grain of salt.


Yup
