  • Tetris issues legal warning after White House releases arcade full of parody games

    Jump

  • One of the games, Build the Wall, borrows heavily from Tetris. Players stack falling blocks to defend the southern border during a “zombie border siege” and “protect the border from the coming horde.”

    Allowing the blocks to reach the top of the screen triggers a “border breached” message.

     

    Ahhh, this administration's usual level of not thinking things through rears its idiotic head again. This basically says building the wall is counterproductive, and you win by keeping it down.

  • People who act like laws are always written perfectly to cover every possible situation are fucking morons who have absolutely NO business working in law enforcement. People are imperfect, and the things written by them even moreso.

  • Why does this sound so familar?

  • Cops Are Asking Axon to Make Their Cameras Look Different From Flock So People Don't Destroy Them

  • Except now they'll be taking down street lights, too - making everyone less safe, which is the exact opposite of the claimed purpose for these things. It's so fucking predictable.

  • Study: Police Reports Miss 96% of Active Phone Use Before Crashes

    Jump

  • True, but to be fair a good number of lights seem to be timed ridiculously - presumably to allow cops to hand out more tickets.

  • Study: Police Reports Miss 96% of Active Phone Use Before Crashes

  • Don't forget my favorite telltale: the gradual drift into other lanes followed by a sudden jerk back into their own (or suddenly switching quickly to the one they were drifting into as a kind of "I meant to do that" cover move).

  • Study: Police Reports Miss 96% of Active Phone Use Before Crashes

  • There Are Some Big Caveats

    Phone use before a crash does not automatically make the phone user responsible for the crash.

    The researchers didn’t have fault determinations. Someone could be sitting at a red light on a hands-free call and get rammed by a pickup from behind. Activity 29 seconds before impact also tells us a lot less than somebody actively tapping the screen one second before impact.

    CMT additionally uses machine learning to estimate whether its user was driving or riding as a passenger. That classification has reportedly exceeded 96 percent accuracy, which is impressive, but leaves some room for error.

    So I would not take these numbers and proclaim that 751 crashes were “caused by phones.” The study doesn’t support that. What the study does support, very strongly, is that active phone use immediately before crashes happens a hell of a lot more often than police reports manage to capture.

  • Under Trump, corporations can do some of the worst shit imaginable and only face couch cushion fees (take that as you will) - just so long as they extol the viruses virtues of Hair Führer.

  • They know the public mood shifts, and so cover all their bases by corrupting as many possible outcomes as they can. You're the one not thinking things through, I'm afraid.
