Here’s a fun thought experiment: What gregorian year and date will the spacian date value of zero correlate to? Trick question.
The atomic clock on the moon and every other celestial body colonized will simply start at zero, and thanks to relativity it will not actually be the same rate of time passing as on earth.
Enjoy your nightmares.

Interns do but should not get the level of write access that makes a durable change impacting all customers. Deadlock a server or even wipe SQL tables, this is an outage. Break a customer’s configuration, send the wrong client’s paperwork, again small scale problem you can deal with. Interns don’t change company policy.
I think it’s a more foundational architecture question: why do you push builds to all customers at once without gating it by SOMETHING that positively confirms the exact OTA update package has been validated? The absolute simplest thing I can think of is pushing to 1 random car and waiting for the post-install self tests to pass before pushing to everyone else. Maybe there’s actually no release automation?? But then you make it safe a different way. It’s just defensive coding practice, I’m not even a CS degree but learned on the job something always breaks so you generally account for the expectation that everything will fail by making a fail-safe just so the failure is not spectacular. Nothing fancy, just enough mitigation to keep the fuck up from eating into your weekend if it happens on a Friday.
149 camera feeds of the person watching the 1 video should be enough no?
I agree porn addiction has been around for a long time, but it’s very different not that we’re reaching a point in time where people who are expected to be adults and functional in their mid 20’s grew up in a world of ubiquitous Internet access and had smart phones.
So while porn addiction existed since photography, this is the first time we get to see the effect of population-wide unrestricted access to these things from a very young age.
It’s actually probably better now with parent-child account management and the like, which didn’t exist at all 15-20 years ago. Also 15-20 years ago CSAM, death imagery, real rape and mutilation videos were all on the front pages of openly accessible .com’s anyone could visit.
I wasn’t kidding. https://www.thoughtco.com/the-giant-jewel-beetle-1968152
Imagine an alien species bombarded the planet with real-dolls, we basically did that to this species of beetle
There are things every mating creatures brain is hard wired to look for, as signals of a healthy and breedable mate
Like the caricatures of sexual perfection in porn, the brown beer bottle happens to be the anime girl of a species of beetle whose males will regularly get carried away trying to reproduce with manufactured human garbage creating an actual risk to the species
“unproven” because it’s Texan. Fuck The Verge, Internet porn addiction is as real as those beetles that have sex with beer bottles because they’re brown and perfectly glossy like an ideal mate.
Ugh I don’t know which is worse. Next timeline, portal gun.
TBH I’m totally on a tangent here about Netflix’s writing teams having their own stories in mind and butchering books instead of picking different books to base shows on. In my example the book series was overwhelming from Gerhalt’s POV with arcs that were written from Ciris POV, and a little flash back for background here and there. The Netflix series started true to the books, and the last release had a completely different story and feel with Gerhalt being a supporting character. Wheel of time is a great female led book series (with similar elements) and is a good show so far, my point is Netflix’s writers whose names we don’t know and who are churning out scripts are just are no match for a renowned author’s best known series, and I have zero faith in their ability to transform an existing story into something better. I don’t watch enough Netflix series to give you a statistical analysis, but in the ones I’ve seen they were just throwing tropes in which is not the same as being allies.
I think people are more annoyed because Netflix’s tendencies lately are more like putting a gay character in a series based on a book where the character was sexually active and definitely straight. I’m really thinking about the last season of Witcher which took this to the extreme, that changed the protagonists and plot of a very good book transforming the series into something quite different only for the sake of fitting a politically desirable mold.
Tool cabinets are a marvelous thing. I have a little thing squirreled away in a drawer of other tools, just the top of a box that a screen protector came in, that is just full of tiny specialized precision tools that I very seldom need.
CS:GO is a valve title not EA. I was specifically referring to EA.That aside…
CS:GO was only a repackaging of CS expansion which itself was a repackaging of CS half-life mod from 1998.
Sure 14 years later the graphics engine was a little updated and there were new maps, but I played a lot of the original and after installing CS:GO I was supremely underwhelmed by the lack of change.
It takes two looked great, but there are just so many games out there I still feel ok having missed it.
Mirrors edge was 2008.
It’s okay to blacklist an entire publisher.
I haven’t bought any games from EA at all since 2013 and know I missed nothing because it’s all just reruns of the same game formula.
I don’t think they need to be pushy, just the quality of product decisions has been going down as time goes on. Monopoly a bigger issue for sure, If not for the massive decline in value to both users and advertisers, we wouldn’t mind the monopoly so much.
Google must be scraping the bottom of the barrel of crazy that’s also stupid enough to pay for ads, I think it’s common knowledge now that Google games analytics to artificially inflate the appearance of ad impact.
I would totally pay for YouTube premium if they weren’t so good about making me watch my favorite gun-tubers on other platforms. Every channel has this endless and constantly changing list of words they can’t say for fear of being demonetized.
Fuck them indeed.
Break up the monopoly and I won’t need to block your ads because I’ll be able to go elsewhere.
