    GameStop stock sinks after surprise $56B eBay takeover bid, CEO Ryan Cohen's combative CNBC interview

  • Same way Kmart bought sears. It’s fairly common for smaller companies to buy larger ones at this point.

    Remember the discovery ‘channel ‘ bought Warner brother whole ass media conglomerate and at the end of the deal the people who made that happen made 10’s of billions.

    The First Modern Car Without Hydraulic Brakes Is Headed to Production

    Jump

  • It’s all about system design. Hydraulic breaks are a known quantity with a long development time .

    Modern cars already physically separate drivers from the transmission and steering. Steering is drive by wire and transmissions are computer controlled , I can suggest a gear with a button or paddle.

    Breaks are the next function to be moved from hydraulic to electric systems.

    If it is implemented as well as steer by wire it should be safe as the current technology.

  • ‘Classic’ cars can be heavy enough to boil brake fluid in heavy breaking situations. Once the fluid boils you lose all breaking power at once on all 4 wheels.

    Can also boil break fluid if a wheel bearing fails while driving( repair shop packed it too tight)

    Also the magic stop juice comes out if you panic stomp on the breaks while headed down an icy hill.

  • You could say the exact same for steering by wire.

    Breaking by wire along with a gyro can help keep a car stable when breaking in slippery conditions in addition to ABS.

    Does not mean it will be done, but it becomes possible.

  • Luckily I discovered that using the cable brake on the cars I drove made them uncontrollable before I got into an emergency. I ruled that out once I did a full 360 at 5 mph on a regular road,

    I learned to emergency stop on the transmission. Slow down on the gears and eventually fuck it up dropping it into park

  • I have had hydraulic brakes fail more than while driving. They can fail even when the lines are fully intact.

  • Magic: The Gathering Arena Team Unionizes At Wizards of the Coast

    Jump

  • It’s crazy that they(Hasbro )are requiring the employees work from in the office.

    I can’t wait till they have a launch problem and the employees make them wait until they can be on prem to fix issues they previously addressed remotely.

    If you need to be in from 8am-6pm to work, why wouldn’t you need to be onsite at 8pm to work.

  • They are making slop every other MONTH! shareholders are suing because there is a fear the brand of being damaged from the flow of slop.

    The game is broken due to the pure volume of new cards interacting in ways that over stretched employees can’t see before release.

    I typically grind about 70k in game coins a month and just skipped a whole set. It gotta be perpetually crunch time on the other side of the screen.

  • Humanoid robots show rapid advances as they race past humans in Beijing half-marathon

    Jump

  • Bipedal robots make sense only because the infrastructure around was made for humans. Wheeled and tracked robots can have trouble though spaces designed for humans. Designing with wheelchair access is mind had to happen on purpose. A small set of stairs or uneven terrain can create a big challenge.

  • Technology makes possibilities and not outcomes. The idea of a bipedal mechanical assistant that can carry , move and lift items for the elderly , on call 24/7 could be another possibility.

    It’s likely things would go as you say. Still there is a possibility that some other applications could come out of this kind of bipedal platform as well.

    Delivering mail is a complex task for a machine. This is a technology forum so at some point we should be excited that there are possibilities in the future.

    The distance these devices could go gives many more possibilities than a similar platform that can move shorter distances.

    My first thought for a platform that could move through human spaces at 13 miles an hour was a military robot for urban combat similar to a terminator. So mail delivery robot is the optimistic version of the future.

    Jump

  • Pretty impressive. The ability to operate 13 miles continuously makes un-teatherd humanoid robots viable for a lot of tasks. Once the AI is developed they could deliver mail or stock items in a department store.

    It'll be interesting to see how long it will be from this race before we see bi-pedal robots completing a full marathon.

    Of course this isn’t their line. There isn’t one.

  • DaVinci Resolve 21 is Now a Lightroom Alternative: RAW Editing, Tethering, Masking, and More

  • Depends on how deep your node graph gets. My friend who does video has a pair of beefy gpu’s(4090?). To get fully smooth and interactive video.

    Resolve is the only application that I see 128gb or more of ram as actually making a difference.

  • Perfect sentiment! Change your tools so they work well for you.

  • DaVinci Resolve 21 is Now a Lightroom Alternative: RAW Editing, Tethering, Masking, and More

    Jump

  • I was surprised to see the camera tether feature.

    Photoshop is much easer to use for photo editing. Still this might be free. There are typically resolution restriction on the free version of resolve. We’ll have to see if that applies to photos.

    Resolve is notoriously bad with high resolution video. I wonder how well it will handle 40Mp and above images.

  • Pope Leo says he does not fear Trump, as he pushes back in feud over Iran war

    Jump

  • Years ago with Catholics during the first Trump presidency they would side with Republican talking points over church guidance, and that was on the Wall.

    It's going to be a short fight where the Catholic church realizes that in a choice between Fox news and the Church, Fox News is what America Catholics believe in. I bet they could even get a bishop or two to follow.

  • Paris Marathon bans single-use water cups and bottles

    Jump

  • The article is also short on details. How exactly do they get enough water to each runner? Are there hundreds of filling stations at each water stop? Will runners setting records, or trying to qualify, now have teams where a literal water boy carries water for you.

  • Researchers Created a Computer Chip That Can Survive at more than 700 degrees Celsius (1,292 Fahrenheit)

  • That's one way to solve the AI data center cooling issue. Of course it would make the data centers deadly to support staff, so I anticipate that will make it to market.

  • My pasta isn't cooked?

    Jump

  • Pasta can need a LOT of water in a big pot to cook properly. Cooking in a pot that it not quite big enough can result in larger pasta, like fettuccine, cooking unevenly.
