The software I paid money for better not update to this crap.
The obvious response is, "Oh, it will."
There should be some kind of legal document an artist can choose to complete, a "Do Not Reanimate Me" choice. If they decline to make a decision, or agree to be simulated, fine. If they they make their wishes known,…
It is a progression: year 1 = 100% of your life year 2 = 50% of your life year 3 = 33% of your life ... year 10 = 10% of your life ... year 50 = 2% of your life etc.
I wasn't really advocating for it, I just think if we were crazy enough to adopt this time system, 10 time zones would also be a necessary adjustment.
Also, no mention of the need for only 10 big-ass time zones instead of 24 relatively narrow time zones. The continental US might have only 2 time zones instead of 4.
Lol, this was EXACTLY my high school sr. year social studies project in 1980, with roughly the same effort (sadly, I didn't create a working clock). I won first place, with just this. The only difference is I named the…
In before someone made a "my O face" joke.
This is nice. If possible, I would change it so that a left rotation happened on a left click and a right rotation happened on a right click; make scoring optional if you want it to be more relaxing.
I don't get the TickTock.
The two best things I did for my mental health was leave Facebook (years ago) and stop watching the news. Hacker News is my news source (along with Ars Technica), I don't look at anything more political or world-eventy…
I opened expecting a picture of a pip-boy-like device a-la Fallout.
The same reason television isn't more fun and weird.
Ya lays down yer money and ya takes yer chances.
Well, they have a trolley and a track, so there is always the option of throwing themselves in front of the oncoming trolley.
My response, to leave them there was based on 1) not taking lives as a result of my decision, and 2) if they're alive, they might eventually find a way to stop the trolley and get off. My choice gives them that chance,…
I think if you choose the option to kill 5 people 100 years from now, that 5 should not be part of your total kill count, because those people won't be dead for 100 years. In fact, it is possible you could commission a…
I dunno, but I did. It had an empty ring to it though. I don't feel like one can solve Philosophy. I've never thought of philosophy as a solvable thing, like all the philosophical conundrums I've encountered were…
Kill Count: 45 WOOT!
My inner 12 year old laffed.
All of them.
Turing says: It's A Bot
On a secondary device.
Holy crap, I wouldn't have thought twice about being lucky enough to roll out a solution I'd happened to have been thinking about for days. I am not seeing an ethics problem here, the guy was just very lucky to get a…
I wish someone would do (somehow) the 1980's Car Wars tabletop game, a computer version, multiplayer or not. I have tried many near misses, and a few real-time cars-with-guns games, but nothing really scratches that…
