This doesn't sound so hot. Any physical presence requires more measured actions for all parties. With someone behind a monitor and with nothing to lose, the decisions may skew to the wrong directions.
"The operative word is "all" — because if even one civilization anywhere in the cosmos could generate such simulations, then simulated worlds would multiply rapidly and almost certainly humanity would be in one."
Do they get stack overflow errors if in inside a simulation they began making several nested simulations?
I think the best alternative would be teaching Scientology, it almost sounds scientific and has as valid explanation to life on earth as any other religion.
Best business ever (75% of its users are not even using it for accessing the internet, according to the article)
Psychologically it should go much better than just transplanting the brain and having an entirely different look and a much harder recovery process. Like fluke says, body's owner would already be brain dead, like it would have to be for a heart transplant etc.
Surgically it should be much easier, you'd have to rewire the facial nerves which go in and go out of the skull in various spots, the intact skull is an added bonus to protect the brain from infection. Psychologically it should me much easier the organ receiver (receiving a full body) as the face wouldn't change and would theoretically begin working much earlier than it would if you rewired the facial muscles (the nerve endings has to regrow inside the nerve "track".) And yo...
This is ridiculously fast..
To put things in perspective, 200 gigabits is 25 gigabytes per second. It's orders of magnitutes faster than local storage, and is the same as local RAM speed of previous gen consoles!
Such a tech, when widely used, has the potential to make many devices obsolete.
(edit: of course this is the backbone speed and will be divided among lots of clients, but it's super exciting, still)
That's an awful story. GoDaddy's handling of this matter is inexcusable.
I am irritated by the fact that one can spend a BILLION dollars for personal *needs*.
Nobody needs a billion dollars. A "couple of" million dollars is enough for anyone to maintain their life with dignity and without fear of poverty, and I'm being generous.
NTSC is 60fps (tho interlaced) and PAL is 50fps (again, interlaced).. All those sports events you see is shot at 60fps (e.g. NBA) or 50fps(a football match in Europe)
Kennytaur is correct, the eyes can see much more than 24.
And I agree with Kenny, a 60fps youtube clip would much better represent the game, all those hard work devs put in to make their games fluid would not go to waste.
I'd have liked to see 60fps videos on Youtube before 4K. 99.7% currently does not have access to 4K displays but all of our displays run at 60hz or higher.
Wow. To this day, I had thought Dogecoins was an actual joke.
This should give us all hope, you can totally lack basic communication skills and etiquette and still be the corporate communications manager at a big corporation.
That idiot (he acknowledges this himself) is actually breaking the law tweeting on the phone while driving, so he IS actually being pulled over for the correct reasons, after which he's "switching" the phone with the cookie one, trying to hide his guilt. He should have let a friend record it if he was a little smarter.
My comment rate is 1:10 compared to previous, I do much less comments..
Also, I finally got tired of the real name sh*t and accepted the damn nagging message, that's probably what they wanted.
I'm hesido everywhere on the internet, one can easily look up my name, but hesido is my internet name, and it feels much more comfortable posting as hesido. The real name bull crap make one much more prone to personal attacks, it makes your identity readily avai...
From a gamers perspective: it would make sense to me if had infinite computational power. We don't.
All that hardware power going to be wasted to just pump out more pixels and less frames. No, I don't like where this is heading.
Who would say no to a photorealistic game running at 1080p, looking as good as a bluray movie, but only better because it's running at 60fps? Wouldn't that be enough? This is all so that they can keep on selling new te...
Some evil Texan company is patenting it as we speak. They will later sue the company that actually produces that suit.
Does the new system deny prior art invalidating new patents?
AT&T's fault is letting strangers walk into other people's homes so easily, with non-existent privacy measures. After all, those e-mail owners don't have any control over how AT&T leaves *their* door open.
He could have kept it a secret and used it for personal gain. Those people deserve to know their service provider suck at keeping their homes safe.
Probably million. Though the $9.2 [Blank] makes the article look so stupid. Probably one of the most important information to give, and they botched it.
