If you are using Autopilot or Full Self Driving beta then the infrared camera makes sure you are looking at the road. The update just lets someone play games while the car is moving... They will not allow drivers to do so until regulations allow for full self driving cars without drivers paying attention... Headline is sensational on purpose, but also untrue...

Boring company tunnels are cheaper per mile than adding a lane to a road. Rail costs are just crazy by comparison... These tunnels will provide good and cheap public transport. Cheaper than the other options and, really trains and roads are not really an option because where they are needed there is no space on the surface to build train stations or rail tracks or roads.

The Cumberbatch Sherlock Holmes is very close to the original books as far as characters and feel. Even some of the stories are updated versions of the original stories.

Do they glow when in normal operation? All the spottings and pictures were taken when they were still moving into position and would be firing thrusters to do so. As far as reflecting light, there is not much we can do about that. Regulators have approved the SpaceX plans and deadlines were imposed by lawmakers so SpaceX have to move quicker than they were planning to...

That battery might be ready for manufacturing in 3-5 years the article says. This means that they do not know how to manufacture it yet and that puts them in the same boat with many promising companies in the research stage...

That notice is about you as a person being photographed and that image being allowed for use by Intel for all purposes. It does not say that my footage would belong to them, just that everything that I am filming could end up on intel's cameras as well.

Seems like E3 needs to happen earlier as Christmas purchasing decisions cannot wait until June. Not much of a criticism. Sony also said that they don't have much to announce until later in the year this year... They also cancelled PSX that would have taken place late 2018. They really made it seem like they will wait until they have PS5 announcement to make... Less to do with E3 in particular than the fact that they are holding off until the next large announcement is ready to be made.

A character mentions the idea of "choose your own adventure books" once in the film and that is "misusing the chooseco trademark" so badly that it tarnishes the brand? Methinks someone is seriously misapplying trademark protection laws.

This was a South Park episode many years ago. Lots of motorcyclists came to town and they made a lot of noise and smoke so the kids hated them and called them fags. The adults were horrified that the kids were homophobic but that just confused the kids who were not homophobic. That word just means "asshole" or "jerk" to them. I can easily believe that you can hear that word your whole life and never know it has anything to do with gay people since it is almost always just used as a general slur. I just find it crazy that most of the comments just point out that he must have heard the word used so many times in life and culture but that neglects the fact that you never get definitions when the word is used to that way.

never had an iphone but I had an iPod touch 4 and 5. Those things crashed more often than my windows machines. My galaxy S5 still works great. It does get slower after a few days without a restart but the ipods would slow down and also crash pretty much daily. Not sure why an OS with such limited variations of hardware would crash daily while my windows machines that I always piece together myself would stay up for months.

So youtube game streams are not as popular as Twitch game streams but overall youtube sees 20 times as many visitors per month. That larger Youtube community matters a lot more than the one segment of live game streams if you want to talk grip. The popularity could shift within a day or two if there was a reason since so many use youtube anyways.

Tesla lawsuit was about the people paying for it and it not working for months. It is not about safety.

Net neutrality is good for ATT and Comcast, even if that is not what they wanted it is still good news for them as businesses.

Regarding MS banning stuff on their servers: Be prepared for similar moves by all sites that let users post stuff. 3 laws regarding the internet passed with the USA budget a few days ago and one of them removes the safe harbor protections that protected ISPs and websites from liability for things that their users post.

Used to be that as long as service providers acted on copyright takedowns and other lawful requests then they were immune to prosecution or lawsuits regarding content posted by or actions of their users. Now service providers are 100% liable for everything that their users post on their services. Expect big changes unless this law gets struck down in court.

Tesla says its prices will still be cheaper than filling up with gas according to article, one problem: %0.26 per KWh x 260kwh = $68 to fill up your Tesla... Gas prices are not this high these days... So What am I missing?

118 claims from 130,000 employees has to be a good rate but out of that 118 MS HR only found basis for 1. Probably that second rate is not too good...

Intel has been aware of this problem with predictive computing for years... no reason to think they are close to solving the problem now. Plus, experts seem to be saying there might not be a solution beyond not doing predictive computing and that sets CPU speed back by a couple of decades...

No mention of dynamic range in the article... The samples didn't look so good compared to existing cameras like the A7sII. I guess the article is really saying that the numbers are ridiculous as opposed to actual performance being ridiculous.
