True AI will have huge energy requirements. Maybe it'll work with humans to find a solution to that problem. I'm sure it'll work out just fine, until Keanu Reeves shows up and starts showing off his kung fu skills

Normally the trapezoid shape can be corrected, but on the really cheap models I wouldn't count on it working that well.

You could also look at your local second hand markets for a better quality one at a reasonable price, but make sure to check if replacement lamps are available and if they're easy to replace on the particular model.

Get a projector with at least 1080p actual output resolution.

Most entry level ones have terrible lenses which means you'll need to experiment a bit with how high you'll mount them cause they need to be dead on to display properly, otherwise half the screen will be blurry. I highly recommend a cheap aluminum camera tripod with a center collumn for height adjustment.

For screen I bought a white roller blind for like 8 bucks from a home supplies store and mounted it by passing a string through the tube and tying the ends to whatever worked best. In terms of picture quality it's exactly the same, but if you can afford an actual projection screen and haul it around then do that.

For sound I would recommend a battery powered Bluetooth speaker because they're cheap and easy to carry, but you may experience a slight sound delay which can be solved with a 3.5mm aux cable in the aux port.

My final suggestion is to get a used Nintendo Wii with sports and a couple of controllers, endless fun for the right crowd.

If they launch a submarine lime people are gonna park them on land. Even if you clean em all out of the rivers they'll be back in there in no time at all

And yet most of the world's militaries would beat those racist gi Joe cos player pieces of shit to a pulp

Imagine being in a 40 million dollar fighter jet, looking down with your augmented reality visor, seeing a bunch of tents with children around them and going "yup... That one tent right there looks like Hamas to me!"

It can most definitely be denied. It can't be avoided or fixed, but it can be denied

Mass surveillance everywhere all the time forever, just in case you ever decide to become a terrorist, or plan a robbery, or sell drugs online, or your description matches a suspect, or the cops have reasonable suspicion, or you plan on attending a protest against the government, or you say something bad about the Supreme Leader, or....

Signed it, I hope the EU can make us proud once again. This should at least be included in planed obsolescence laws, that can have provisions against both hardware and software being declared dead with no consequences.

In today's episode of "The rich and powerful do whatever the fuck they want with no consequences"...

Thank you!

The spot is a Bortle 4 to 5 according to the map, nothing special but it's only a 20 min drive and has no nearby light sources, offers decent protection from the constant Aegean summer winds as well. My advice is this: Bortle + Drive time + terrain difficulty= X, solve for the lowest possible X and only go to really remote and dark sites when you're sure you've got the shooting process dialed in. Generally any moon less night under Bortle 5 skies or better yields great results.

Hope that helps.

Video games with apparently sentient NPCs.

Custom ARM SoCs from AMD and Nvidia for laptops, tablets and handheld consoles, running customized Linux to avoid Microsoft's fees.

YouTube switches to unskipable server-side ads injection directly into the original video stream, rendering adblockers ineffective. Others soon follow.

Mainstream media starts releasing news in TikTok style videos where the bottom half of the screen plays random Minecraft / satisfying to watch slop.

End to end encrypted communication is quietly outlawed following some terrorist attack, using national security fearmongering. You've got nothing to fear if you have nothing to hide.

China inevitably invades Taiwan, TSMC burns their fabs down to protect their IP. Samsung and Intel fabs become the most cutting edge process nodes on next cycle, China catches up, profits go up all around.

Google kills Search and now Gemini is their only search engine. Others soon follow.

Basically PUBG, but with more guns

Plastic waste has been a real headache for scientists lately, this solution would cure that headache in more ways than one

Same here. Let's hope they aim for a light orbital rocket that can be mass manufactured and reused, for example, or at least a Falcon type rocket that also had a hopper test vehicle initially

Edit: Reading Honda's own post about the launch they seem to be implying that they want to develop a vehicle that can achieve orbit, but also to use it for transportation purposes?

It's too early to make assumptions, but they do clearly state that they are aiming for something that can reach 100km in altitude in a vertical fashion. They also say they hope to achieve suborbital flights by 2029.

6.3 meter rocket demonstrator went up 271m and landed. I'm guessing they're trying to copy the New Sheppard design for suborbital recreational hops

Gee, I wonder if there was a certain agency he's defunding that could've forseen such circumstances

It's only tyranny if it's from a blue state, otherwise it's just sparkling law and order

I'm pretty sure I've played video games based on that premise

The article itself is either AI generated or just bad in general. Absolutely no information about what the title would suggest, while also mentioning that there's no actual proof of anything other than the dogs here are different than the dogs 10.miles that way and it could be related to a number of things such as the initial breeds that were left behind, inbreeding etc.
