  1. Danny Elfman: The Simpsons Is Probably Getting Canceled Soon

    It more than ran it's course. I can't see how anyone would feel bad about letting it wind down at this point.
  2. Netflix Cancels "Mystery Science Theater 3000" Reboot After Two Seasons

    Loved MST3K back in the day. Tried watching the revival, and I just wasn't feeling it. The cast doesn't have that chemistry, and it seemed like the writers didn't either.
  3. WWE 2K20 Is So Screwed Up, Sony Is Issuing Refunds to PS4 Players

    I was thinking David Cronenberg Wrestling.
  4. Traffic Lights to Change Worldwide after Swedish Engineer Wins Legal Fight

    When the places putting them up bother to follow the guidelines. Like they didn't do before this quite often, and will continue to fail to do so quite often. Especially it if generates revenue.
  5. Google's Quantum Processor Solved a 10,000-Year Calculation in 200 Seconds

    So assuming they’re right, is 2.5 days a practical amount of time? Maybe it is for some tasks, but certainly not for others. Yeah, but given that the supercomputer can likely do traditional computing tasks very fast as well, and unless something changed, quantum computers are particularly bad...
  6. Brie Larson, Marvel Women "Passionately" Asking Kevin Feige for All-Female Film

    To quote my wife after seeing endgame. "That whole girl power moment was a bit much." It was a bit discordant as placed and paced. So hopefully if they do it, they do better than that by a lot. If they do it it should be because they have a good idea, not because of "wouldn't it be great if."
  7. Traffic Lights to Change Worldwide after Swedish Engineer Wins Legal Fight

    Worldwide changes you say? I have trouble believing that, at least in the US. I mean we pick colors bad for the color blind and then also orient the lights in multiple directions. Also the fact they have ignored the guidelines previously, and don't see why they wouldn't continue the practice.
  8. "Godfather" Director Francis Ford Coppola Calls Marvel Movies "Despicable"

    Likely because it interferes with the funding and distribution of their projects. Disney alone saturates the market. Without cutting back, absent a total bomb, they are already cannibalizing their own box office returns. Warner, Universal, Paramount, etc are trying to fight that juggernaut and...
  9. Motorola Expected to Unveil Foldable Razr Phone During November Event

    You are concerned about a plastic flexible screen with no glass breaking from a drop? You need to read up on what is destroying foldable phone screens. Pocket lint and grit seems to be their main enemy rather than indirect impact. It has a not quite top of the line spec for a not quite top of...
  10. PS5 to Get a Optical Drive Able to Use 100 GB Discs!

    I'll be getting one given the 4k blu-ray player ability and backward compatibility. I'm also digging the adjustable resistance of the trigger buttons announced for the controller. It should make racing games a bit less twitchy if done right.
  11. MIB Director Barry Sonnenfeld Calls 8K "Stupid" and HDR a "Disaster"

    The problem with high refresh rate video is that there's no motion blur. This works fine for sports where you are usually not watching the whole screen at once and want to focus in on a subset of the frame and action. But real life has motion blur. Put your hand in front of your face and wave...
  12. Software Costs Have Gone up an Average of 62% over the Past Decade

    Hmm. I go look at the article referenced to see if I can see the chart. Most of the stuff that went up is either a price increase on incredibly cheap software, very niche, or experiencing a LOT of competitive intrusion. Lots of very useful stuff actually went down. Also, if you bought...
  13. AMD Announces BIOS Fix for Ryzen 3000 Boost Clock Issue

    Well "some situations" could be incredibly common without being all situations by any definition of all.
  14. Microsoft Terminates Perpetual Office Licenses from Home Use Program, Pushing Annual Subs

    If you were legitimately licensing office and buying the new version every time, their cloud service runs about hte same cost, but you get to pay it over three years instead of all at once, and you get email infrastructure for effectively zero dollars.... And the OS license.... and basic...
  15. Samsung Expects to Launch SoCs with AMD Graphics in Two Years

    Why would you license intel GPU technology? Does anyone say.. oooh intel integrated GPU? I NEED that and it will clealry be better than generic mobile GPU chipset #97.
  16. FTC: Forget about That $125 Settlement from Equifax

    God damnit... case in point frikin capital one breech. Hopefully it is just credit card applications. I'm sure once again they will "help" "fx" this by offering at least 12 months of ****ty credit monitoring.
  17. FTC: Forget about That $125 Settlement from Equifax

    Dude I'm like 4 deep in free credit monitoring from companies that can't manage to do security remotely correctly. It's time they pay out the *** for being cheap up front. The bulk purchased buck a year credit monitoring is not even remotely close to restitution for the bullshit this has caused.
  18. All Three iPhones Coming in 2020 Will Reportedly Support 5G

    Yes. People will see commercials telling them 5g is the fastest. And sinc ehtye are very important people who don't have time to understand this **** while waiting in line at walmart in their flip flops, they will need their phone to have the 5g because it is one more G and they need that. It's...
  19. NVIDIA: "First AAA Game to Require Ray-Tracing GPU Will Ship in 2023"

    That timeline is stupid. 1963 was the beginning of "pervasive" computer gaming because there was a video game cooked up for machines not accessible to most people? yah.. got it. At the same time, 3d acceleration wasn't pervasive in 1999 when quake 3 required it. Go it. Also Pervasive home...
  20. EA Says It Deserves Better: “We’re Not Just a Bunch of Bad Guys”

    EA... when you want it on schedule, regardless of if it works or is a pile of hot garbage.
