  Project Hail Mary is streaming on Amazon. Spoiler Alert - It sucks. The general idea is that there are little alien dark cells that are killing every sun in the vicinity of our star system, the Solar System and this is an existential threat. For no good reason at all, the entire world needs the help of a douchebag middle school math teacher to solve the problem. No one else will do. It's a terrible movie from start to finish esp bc it's scifi that doesn't understand anything about science. These cells are made mostly of water, but can somehow travel en masse through space and eat the sun over a period of about 30 years without being destroyed by it. The math teacher becomes the only living person on the mission that survives the journey to a star 11.9 lightyears away, which is not 11.9 travel years away, it's 11.9 LIGHTYEARS which is such an incredible distance that he could not cross it in his lifetime, but somehow his ship can make that distance in just over 4 years, that's faster than light speed travel. Faster, even, than his communications back to Earth, which take approx 12 years to arrive. The movie thinks that the engine has to be firing for the ship to be moving and it will coast to a fairly abrupt stop if the accelerator isn't being held down, but this isn't a car. Cars stop when the accelerator isn't held down because Earth's gravity causes friction between the wheels of the car and the surface the car is traveling on. In space, no such friction exists so if you stop burning an engine, the craft will simply continue on at the same direction and speed unless acted on by another force. These kinds of simple mechanical errors are rife throughout the film, which at somepoint turns into a buddy comedy with a animate rock creature. I wish I was joking. This Math teacher and the rock are both intelligent scientists when the script calls for it and bumbling idiots in way over their heads when it doesn't. Gosling's acting, esp when he's pretending he can't remember how to speak properly after waking up from Cryosleep is some of the worst I've ever seen. I have no idea why people say this movie is good. It's not and to make matters worse, it's 2.5 hours long when it could have easily been 90 minutes. Terrible film. It's actually a little shocking to me that some idiot would make a scifi movie like this one without understanding the most basic things about space, space travel, orbital dynamics, gravity, or air pressure. If you don't understand any of that and you like cute little pet companions reminiscent of the animal companions each Disney Princess gets, then you might find something to enjoy in this film. If you don't like that or you understand even basic **** about space, you're going to see a lot of things that don't really make sense.

  its crazy that future tech used to be all about very physical utility things that make your life better and fix real problems and now its Let Amazon think for you. Buy fake money. Always gamble.

  War Doll (@thewardoll) reported 7 minutes ago

  It's hard to get your hands on a War Doll shirt, but not because of some fake supply & demand trick of the internet or some marketing strategy. It's just me. You're looking at the only employee of this operation since 2015. I design every shirt myself. I source the best quality apparel I can find. I print it all by hand. I package it and ship it myself, and if you haven't guessed by how slow CS email responses are, I answer all the emails too. Every sermon posted here and every prayer request answered in the DMs is usually done after hours while sitting in a lawn chair at my kids soccer practice, or at 0300 when everyone's finally asleep and I can squeeze the last bit out of the day. That's where your money goes when you shop small business. It puts diapers on butts, food on the table, and keeps the lights on around here. So thank you for your patience, and for your support of this small operation. Amazon might deliver quicker. I'm sure other companies respond to emails promptly, too. But I think you'll have a hard time finding another company that does what War Doll does - and I hope that's worth the wait.

  @whutno90 @pluslunar @PlayStation You dont have to accept sonys prices. You can still buy games on other ways like amazon or retail(Wal-Mart) The thing with your files is true but you know that. If this is a problem for you its possible to go to pc. But pc is also full digital.

  Culture War Notes (@culturewarnotes) reported 8 minutes ago

  @RnaudBertrand There's another problem hidden in this essay that isn't obvious. First, the essay correctly notes that Palintir is right on this point: "the architecture that maximally preserves sovereignty is one that enables institutions to own their tribal knowledge, and to compound it as alpha," We have a template for this. Third-party sellers who have popular products on the Amazon platform have famously discovered Amazon poaching their products, undercutting their prices, and selling knock-offs as part of the Amazon Basics line. Amazon could do this because it demanded the product spec be supplied before it would deign to sell the product. It then used the supplied product spec to create a knock-off and harvest the profits. This is exactly what every AI software can/will/does do. Any company using a third-party AI quickly discovers the AI can now imitate/replicate their business process and there's not a damned thing the company can do to stop it. To avoid this, in-house AI is a necessity because you MUST protect your proprietary training data. The software itself is fungible, but the training data and associated business processes aren't. A lot of companies are going to go with open-source and build their own in-house AI solutions. But, as anyone who tried to implement a Linux open-source solution for their business desktop environment has discovered, sometimes in-house open-source is an extremely expensive solution. Now you are forcing your business not only to be an expert in building product X, your business must ALSO be an expert in AI software engineering. If it isn't, then your company cannot replicate any advances made in AI software. You fall behind. There's a reason companies use Google docs and AWS instead of writing their own word processing software or building their own cloud solution. Software engineering is not in their wheelhouse. Closed-source AI companies that want to sell themselves as a universal solution have to do what AWS and Google Docs did - they have to figure out a way to wall off proprietary business processes and data within the AI. Nobody knows how to do that yet. Everybody uses every scrap of data they can scrape, steal, buy, loot in order to train their AI, but this cannot continue. This is a low-trust environment. Because of the data training problem, every AI is currently a ghetto welfare cheat stealing hair and nail supplies from the local CVS, reselling the products on every street corner. To succeed, closed-source AI needs to become a high-trust environment, with every business that is utilizing the third-party AI space strictly walled off from every other. We need data banks, not data NY Central Parks. Whoever figures out how to do that first will be a trillion-dollar AI software company.

  @GovernorHobbs From the mom and pop restaurant down the streets quickbook servers, to all the pictures you upload to social media or the cloud, to your WiFi cameras you can check on your phone, to google, Amazon, Netflix, etc etc etc, they all need “datacenters” the current batch of cavemen trying to oppose them are lying to you, just a bunch of ignorant panicking tribesmen shaking their fists at some tech they don’t understand.

  @M1CHAEL_PEPPER @amazon @AmazonHelp In a FAQ no less, buried way down. They do later mention 12GB+24GB RAM in the description text, but as-described it can seem more like 12GB soldered + 24GB added physical RAM. They don't explicitly state it's ROM running 24GB Virtual RAM. Seems very consumer-deceptive. :/

  $AMZN's ad business has nearly tripled in under five years, growing into a $72B operation with zero down quarters — and it's still climbing 23% YoY off an already massive base. Amazon has emerged as the third major scaled digital ad platform, holding 9% of global share, with ads now driving 35% of total income.

  @egalbraith_ @AndyRileyish @amazon Because they actually reply when companies know there are eyes on the issue?

  @Molson_Hart @JeffBezos Well the Project Nessi thing should have gotten Amazon shut down. Using algorithms to manipulate consumers and prices is pure evil.

  (5/n) I contacted Amazon Customer Support. After nearly 40 minutes and escalation to a senior executive, I was told: “This is a Bank issue. Contact the bank” and the agent hung up the call. The issue is clearly with how Amazon is displaying the offer and later applying caps.
