The H-K's are becoming more sophisticated.

Some people look at that and see Skynet; a strong AI run amok and turned against its creators.

I look at it and see something far more terrifying: a simplistic, barely autonomous AI, functioning properly and completely under the control of its rightful owners, ala the Police Department (Chappie, 2015) and the Civil Cooperation Bureau (Elysium, 2013).

Evenm that thought doesn't scare me.

ED-209 (according to the story) was a science-fair project so badly designed that, after its malfunction at the private demo, would never have made it into production, and would likely have done such incalculable damage to OCP's reputation (and stock price) as to drive the company to liquidate its entire robotics division.

What's really scary is the prospect of semi-autonomous robots which act as a force-multiplier alongside (and obey the commands of) human police officers. They function perfectly, don't look like horrifying battle machines, and are gradually accepted by society.

We've already got the U.S. Customs and Border Protection operating a small fleet of MQ-9 Reapers in US airspace. A ground-based equivalent for police use will happen. At first, they'll be deployed only in SWAT units for building-entry, for riot-control, etc. A decade or two later, they'll be ride-along backup in every patrol car, and the human officer will never have to leave the safety of his or her cabin. And, eventually, they'll be doing their own foot patrols, controlled by a central dispatch center.

Which is precisely the stage we're in now with armed UAVs.

I love the arguments that "If you aren't doing anything wrong you have nothing to fear."

Well this is reletive to the previous robot conversation. Boston dynamics apparently have made a 2 wheeled robot.. and it seems to work great.

I can't help but go back to this...

The day the robots started to plot their takeover.

I think you mean relevant. And it is totally relevant. Because that same video started the conversation 13 posts before yours.

Did I just watch someone die?

No. Escaped inmate in a stolen car, he is back in custody now facing multiple charges including attempted homicide of a police officer.

Hmm, apparently no one caught it when I posted about it weeks ago (about 215 posts ago).

Just watched it.
I should start seeing parts roll in tomorrow. The boys are pretty hype, i haven't told them i got the 1800x yet either.
I also have 24' of PETG ready to go.

I just realized that the VDub guy was Peter Stormare, the same actor who played Uli Kunkel (aka Karl Hungus), the leader of the nihilists in The Big Lebowski.

For what it's worth, he's not German, he's Swedish.

Ok this is awesome.

Did you notice guest miata appearance?

Still excited about the 1800x. Apparently from the 3rd party bench tests it's a multi-threaded beast when it comes to heavy loads. Anything multi-threaded it can dish out. But, apparently since games are not using the multiple cores just yet, the 7700K kaby lake dominates the FPS market. Also, the 1800x runs a little hot and becomes unstable if the temp gets too high. If planning to OC, definitely keep it on a very cool water setup.

So far, some have attempted some early OC and haven't pushed much past 4.2Ghz or so.

pretty sure I saw 5ghz. But this was probably a binned chip. Also:

Mine will be on custom water loop. But in not sure if it will get an OC just yet. At least not until there are a few BIOS updates.

Amusing city seal.

Vietnamese SWAT team. Pretty cool.

Think the 5Ghz was the liquid nitrogen run. I watched the NG video above and all of the other YT reviews that uploaded today. Even with AIO liquid coolers, still nothing past 4.3Ghz

Hopefully BIOS updates in the future will allow for high speeds.

Oh, okay. My mistake. I have seen a few videos now that show this architecture does not have the same heat issues as the previous gen. Which is good.

Parts are rolling in.

My 980 EKWB looks soooo pretty. This is really a high quality piece. Though, being the tradesmen i am, i can see by the pattern of the endmill they could shave some time off the process. lol

Anyway, i'm already running into a few "fitment" issues. But hey, if it was easy everyone would be doing it.

Computer hardware pr0n. So jelly.

I'm rocking a quad channel X99 mobo with a i7 hex core. I still have time to wait until I upgrade. I'm looking forward to when the Radeon Vega is released.

i told my wife the other day i want a new PC was my birthday and she loled at me.

how to cheat in sports:

As I understand it, it was either compete 'as a girl' or drop out. So, the beef is really with the Texas state athletics league. Or am I missing something? Sure, the testosterone probably helped but the league was well aware according to the reports.

So the other wrestlers aren't allowed to inject testosterone?

What the heck kind of wrestling is this?

From the article she wanted to compete in the mens event the whole time. They told her no.

Damned if you do, damned if you don't. If they let her compete as a boy, then they have no standing to stop a boy from competing in the girls' event.

https://kaufmanconfidential.files.wo..._kaufman_l.jpg

Well, I guess. Not for or against. Not my battle but I think saying he/she (whatever) 'cheated' was a stretch.

Maybe we make testosterone injections legal and make all sports bi-sexual. Wouldn't matter to me a bit.

Nah, we just need "stock" and "modified" classes.
