I bought a washer that has wifi connectivity. It want to texts me or something when the cycle is finished and doesn’t even seem to have a ‘play a loud beep when done’ option. How does this make any sense at all?

Just want to say, Google Docs is NOT free. Just because you don’t send them money doesn’t mean you aren’t paying.

I just barely used my first one for the longest time, since I mostly played games or programmed on computers. Then I started to use it to read books and watch Netflix. I am on my 3rd one now and probably spend 60% of my computer time on it.

I think what he is implying is that current computer design will never be able to gain consciousness. Maybe a fundamentally different type of computer can, but is anything like that even on the horizon?

The book The Emperors new Mind is old (1989), but it gave a good argument why machine base AI was not possible. Our minds work on a fundamentally different principle then Turing machines.

Coffee liqueur is super easy to make. Cheap vodka, super strong coffee and a vanilla bean. Let it sit for a month. You can add glycerin if you want to increase the viscosity, but not needed for white russians.

Be honest, do you look for such activity?

Something that always confused me about that story: the fairy godmother used magic to enchant Cinders rags to create the illusion of a gown, but the enchantments were supposed to end at midnight. Why didn’t the glass slipper revert back to whatever it was before? Was she really scrubbing the floors wearing glass slippers?

He is angry that Priscilla, Queen of the Desert didn’t make the list.

Made with love, but definitely has its flaws, so don’t know about forever.

Talos Principle is a great puzzle solving game, but I did get tired of the back story and just started skipping it. If I wanted to be depressed I won’t be playing puzzle games.

Are you it’s human is the question.

Not if you have a slightly older Nvidia GPU. I am seeing 10%-15% lower frame rates in many of the games I tested.

It would be nice if there was a way to rip out any questionable software/electric components from modern cars and replace it with something open source.

I always thought the lore was that they could not see themselves in a mirror and that was misinterpreted as they did not have a reflection. First one could just be a mental block or they just don’t recognize their reflections as themselves.

Now there’s some sad things known to man
But ain’t too much sadder than the tears of a clown
When there’s no one around

Meh, who cares?

Huh, right. That’s it. Hate to miss any.
