Seems to me that Murkans need to focus on real, not artificial intelligence. After all, decades of bought-and-sold pollies systematically deconstructing our education system led to the ignorant masses to the election of Cheeto Mussolini.

Re: Our Democracy Depends on Secure Elections

Theodore Wirth — Sat, 02 Dec 2017 17:36:03 -0000

Nothing will change until Republicans start to unexpectably lose elections, particularly via the electoral college. Coupled with the efforts of their Russian benefactors to pollute the minds of mindless wingnuts on FB, secure elections are even less of an issue..

Like HKs Lam Suet, every time I see Ma Dong on screen it brings a smile to my stone face.

Re: AI Can Help Hunt Down Missile Sites in China

Can they hunt down US missle sites? I doubt it because they would be hounded out of business by he gummint and trolls in a heartbeat.

Re: Government Move to Block AT&T Merger Bodes Ill for Tech

Good. These two companies s*ck all on their own. Joined together they would s*ck even more. Not do they s*ck for customer service and uncontrolled and entitled behavior, these rentiers are determined to suck every last dime out of our pockets. Plus Pai (must dai) and his killing off net neutrality would make it even worse.

Regularly heard 'round my neighborhood back in the day:"You don't know sh*t from shinola." Just kidding--not you Dave. Thank you for the round-up.

If this is the case, maybe we need self-shooting guns? Sadly, the best brains are on the flip side of that industry.

Re: The 12 Best Chicken Wings In NYC

Theodore Wirth — Sat, 28 Oct 2017 20:21:08 -0000

The 12 Best Chicken Wings In NYC theoretically only required the demise of 6 chickens.

I wish. I love the chickens.

Interesting side note: pigeons were domesticated well before that of ducks and chickens--go figure.

Re: The Best Laptop Stands

Theodore Wirth — Thu, 14 Sep 2017 10:35:14 -0000

I disagree. Proper ergonomics is a must for prevention from long-term repetitive-task injury. A touch pad turns your wrists unnaturally inward and will eventually cause carpal-tunnel syndrome. Most people plop a laptop on any flat surface that is usually the wrong height for viewing and hand placement which will eventually cause neck or shoulder strain.

Back in the day, office furniture designers adhered to these standards but laptops plopped anywhere go completely against them. Plus, bring your own laptop and any old flat surface are much cheaper to provide than proper office furniture for today's profit-centric business owners.

Trump doesn't care about his base, he only cares about his delicate ego. It is the best ego.

Re: JOJO'S BIZARRE ADVENTURE: New Trailer For Miike's Adaptation Features The Stands In Action

Who cares what THE STANDS look like? I expect that this film will entertain me. Miike has always entertained a "turn off your brain" approach.

1, 2, 3, awww. I love the animals and especially their babies. This event even makes me like the coppers a wee bit more.

Ahem. OK. Wake up boy and keep your eyes on the road and your hands upon the wheel...

Re: Less Liberal Contempt, Please

Theodore Wirth — Wed, 31 May 2017 14:45:09 -0000

This contempt is a two-way street but is it imbalanced. One side cannot deal with a closed mind and the other cannot deal with an open mind. One side tut-tuts and the other agressively espouses hate. Your complex theory is not so much. One side has more contempt to spare than the other.

I have a Phillips GA-212. I feel that I do not need another. How do you feel?

As for me, I feel better than James Brown.

Re: FFS PSA: TURN OFF YOUR ALARM CLOCK WHEN YOU GO OUT OF TOWN

Theodore Wirth — Sat, 27 May 2017 18:59:40 -0000

Jeez. There's no excuse for this shite you kiddiots. Knock it off with the avocado toast and spend a few minutes with your damn alarm clock every now and then. My 15 y/o Phillips stereo/CD//MP3/AM/FM ($22 on eBay) has dual alarms and daily setting capability. Just keep a 9v battery in it and it will retain settings even after a NY-style black-out. While you're at it, get offa' my lawn.
