    Nintendo sold the switch based on a gimmick. Who knows if the sheeple will make it pay off. I'm pretty sure my iPad has the same level of graphical output as the Switch. Nintendo i…

    How has Google not created an AI assistant that blows everyone else out of the water? Why is Amazon more often cited than Google and Siri in this space? What is going on?

    When you fly in an airplane the pilot is basically checked out the entire time because of autopilot. Over thousands of miles, too. But guess what? They have steering wheels (or wha…

    Not really. There's nothing stopping the capitalist class from reverting back to, say, de facto feudalism. Don't think that the working-class always has a way forward. We do regres…

    Sorry but without the rigors of scientific testing, this is just more woo-woo nonsense that isn't effective. I think the journalists mention that this form of therapy wouldn't "get…

    It was without a doubt the gratuitous amounts of cocaine. Take Robin Williams: he had major heart surgery due to heavy cocaine use. The ramifications of 70s-level cocaine abuse is …

    Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB (N) or bust. I don't horse around with my operating systems, and I won't accept M$FT's substandard offerings.
