    Could AI Be The Biggest Win For Taxpayers

    AI to search case law? Are you serious... =| If anyone cares to look at examples like the FDA's FACTS system, you'd know that doing stuff other than defense/security/*insert euphemism here* gets second fiddle. AI to search case law my ass.

    Just How Brave are You?

    Meh, your perspective. Military is another ball game. You signed up to allow Uncle Sam to crawl up your ass in detail. Civilian life is colored with contention regarding privacy and the role of government. People in America fought over privacy before the information age. Just a little refresher...

    Just How Brave are You?

    Amazing how much technology changes things, isn't it? Imagine 40 years ago if the meat processing industries got together and decided they were entitled to know all the details about what you eat for dinner and you had no choice but to comply. Even something seemingly benign as that would have...

    YouTube Statement on Fighting Online Terror Content

    So now that the analogy has proven completely inadequate for the topic at hand...my point is that: Youtube is free to do as it wishes, to a point. They can erect as much censorship as their customers and the government are willing to accept. On the other foot, they are free to reject or comply...

    YouTube Statement on Fighting Online Terror Content

    You can *tell* him to leave. You can't force him or that becomes assault, etc. Besides, you don't actually own your home/land. You can be on it and use it as long as you pay taxes to the government and they don't need it for their own purposes.

    YouTube Statement on Fighting Online Terror Content

    The Bill of Rights is NOT additive. It is subtractive. It doesn't grant a right, which incidentally humans naturally come with. It takes away the ability of Government to infringe upon that right, because at the end of the day; "a Government is a group of people usually, notably ungoverned" -...

    New 3D Chip Combines Computing and Data Storage

    NSA Leaker Outed by Modern Printer Technology

    FCC Says Broadband Isn’t “Telecommunications”

    I don't get this argument. What's stopping anyone from proposing new "Net Neutrality" rules now? What makes the destruction of the current system need to come first? It's like intentionally wrecking your car just so you can start shopping for a new one. Nothing's stopping you from pulling up...

    Unreal Engine 4.16.1 Hotfix Released

    Neat. I've been playing with the Unreal Tournament Pre-Alpha on and off. In its current state, it is more fun to me than Quake Champions. Don't get me wrong, QC is a great game so far and lots of fun too. I just like UT better so far. I haven't seen anything about Vulkan yet myself (which isn't...

    2018 Camry Using Open-Source Linux Infotainment

    I've owned a lot of different makes of cars over my lifetime (computers, too, beginning with a TI 99/4A). I've owned four Toyota vehicles in this time. Two of which I still say I never should have sold, one was stolen, and my Tundra...well they'll just have to bury me in it. Every other make...

    Far Cry 5 : Official Announce Trailer

    Quake Champions – Sorlag Champion Trailer

    Id tech 7. I played it throughout closed and public phases. It's definitely captured Q3A in spirit. Played smooth on my hardware, aside from two hard lockups which might be the overclock on the RX470. I backed it down from 1250 to 1230 and it hasn't hiccuped since. Match finding took over a...

    Your Government Knows Better than You

    It's interesting to me how this site is covering the political attempts at influencing technology. Like the Antiwar.com of technology, it has a libertarian essence to it.

    Far Cry 5 Officially Confirmed

    From ATI to AMD back to ATI? A Journey in Futility @ [H]

    This is awesome news. I always thought that Intel and AMD should bury the hatchet and collaborate more. This is a very positive step in that direction. I always wondered what a handpicked team of Intel and AMD's best and brightest could design.

    FreeSync vs. G-Sync Delay Analysis

    At the end of the day it doesn't matter which is better. It's all about market acceptance. This goes back a long way. Look at Betamax for example. IMO, it was ultimately porn that drove vhs to dominance. Like reserve currency, it's only as strong as the people willing to use it.

    Repair Shops Stoked: Samsung Galaxy S8 Most Fragile Phone Ever Made

    I purchased an S8+ on Sunday. It was to replace my S3, an old soldier for sure. I took it back yesterday, put my S3 back on the line and put an Asus ZenPad Z8 on instead. Way, way happier now. In my location, the S8+ got worse signal coverage in the exact same spots. Ran them individually just...

    Humans Are Already Harassing Robots

    Hmm. Duke touches on an interesting point. Even with economies of scale, robots that are at least as capable as a human in the same role will always be more expensive and less expendable. They will still want cheap and expendable human resources at the end of the day.
