That is officially comfortably worth more than my car ☠️

Don’t make mistakes! This is for my really important lawyer job and I could get in trouble!

It just dawned on me that no matter what, we have a wasted seat on self-driving taxis because we still put a wheel and pedals that are expected to go unused in the vehicle. I think this would help highlight just how unsafe this concept really is. With the wheel and pedals there, maybe it’s giving people more of an illusion of control or something, because I feel like having nothing there would make people a lot less comfortable, even though that’s the reality of the situation.

Edit: people keep bringing up ways this could be used, and that we do it for cost-cutting, but this still doesn’t detract from the reality of how they were actually deployed before these concerns were addressed. They’re not even commenting on it and letting the consumer fill in their PR’s gaps for them.

I guarantee this will cost more and be less hackable than the offerings from ClockworkPi

They could federate with servers if only they had servers that wanted to federate with them.

The moron does not require a data center to give me wrong information.

See:

without any life experience

I’d rather ask a moron with a corporeal being than someone who thinks they know everything but has never lived.

The difference being is that you’re far less likely to be asked what someone should do to manage their coffee shop. Imagine a coffee shop manager asked you what they should do to improve their business.

People got it in their heads that AI is an expert in these fields, but at best, I’d guess it has high school + a couple years of Gen Ed college courses but without any of the applicable life experience. I wouldn’t ask that person a damn thing about a specialty and I certainly wouldn’t hire them to own or manage a business out the gate.

And with any number of them falling out of the sky in a few more years, maybe those two numbers will meet in short time.

Can’t you just disable sleep on close?

Most modern laptops have their air intake in the keyboard, which would cause them to overheat on a matter of minutes.

Edit: I may have been confidently incorrect here. I know I’ve seen this done before, but I guess it’s not common like I thought

Sure. But where’s the line? We saw how quickly corporations scaled up LLMs as big and as fast as they could. Once we hit the first real breakthrough in this field, that’s all it takes for these to suddenly become very serious questions.

I thought about this when the first “brain computer” played Pong. To those cells, that is their universe. Reward or failure for completing the game. Are those cells perceiving that experience. Do they get “stressed” when they fail and “excited” when they succeed? If it is conscious, are you killing a living being when you switch off power?

We’ve made so much physical progress in this field, but no one seems to be taking the time to understand what we’re actually doing before we charge on full steam ahead. How soon before turning off a machine is just a little bit of murder as a treat?

For me, the trackpads are specifically useful for mouse controls, not for precision. I’m a couch gamer and tired of having to reach for my mouse or keyboard just to do one thing and then grab my controller again.

With the trackpads, I also get the virtual keyboard. Another killer feature.

Yep. The trackpads are 90% of why I want this controller. It’s such a killer feature.

I use my gaming desktop on my TV. Especially for games where you’re only occasionally doing inventory management for instance, it can be nice to use touchpads for the 1:1 input every so often. Also a lot of RTS games that would otherwise be unplayable or at least difficult from the couch are suddenly accessible.

Add in Valve’s recent reputation for repairability and open communication and it’s a hard combination to beat.

They should have used a 💩 for the AI artists instead.

This isn’t related to the question, but:

Excuse me, is that the promotional art for Total Overdose, a game I had only assumed had been lost to time and everyone forgot existed (not that it was good)?

Approaching my first 1000 in Elite:Dangerous. Got myself a Fleet Carrier and a Squadron and I feel like I’ve just started the mid-game. It’s a seemingly endless game world.

Tom Scott did a video on it. In all honesty, there are a number of things about this system that I just don’t see working well in the long term, but it’s an interesting prototype nonetheless.

I remember when the first round of capacitive buttons showed up. I can’t find it anymore, but there was an article on a fan site for MP3 players I read in 2010 that showed the comparisons of physical vs capacitive vs touchscreens and capacitive buttons only had negatives. It baffled me when they just never stopped using them on things. That article was burned into my mind and now I see that logic has spilled into a thousand other industries.
