  • Making shit up as they go along.

    They could just release early, with pricing as low as they are willing to go. If they really were trying to "cater to the masses" like all their marketing has been about, they would be comparing themselves to Intel's Battlemage.

    They could come out and strike first against Nvidia with an unbeatable price.

    Instead they are trying to position it as high and expensive as possible and ride Nvidia's coattails.

  • I've got ogmios tagged, they have a history of espousing bullshit as "fact", usually with some religious bent to it. Their science education likely came from a pastor and I doubt they'll ever sincerely try to actually learn science.

  • Typewriters were not designed for ergonomics at all. They were made to make mechanical levers attached to the keys functional.

    The up-angled keys are basically just a relic of mechanical design that people got used to. Like the QWERTY layout, which is also designed for mechanical function of a bunch of tiny levers swinging at a piece of paper, it's actually designed to slow down typing speed and is also terrible for ergonomics.

    Negative tilt is the actual ergonomic position.

    Much like QWERTY, keyboards are designed with positive tilt for no reason other than "it's always been that way" and "people got used to it"

  • Lots and lots of cuts, lol. Green screen everything. In an action scene, every single actor must be in completely different room, or shoot their part at different times, then composite everything together. No movies will ever have the weapon pointed at the camera, ever. Such scenes are now banned.

    Also, if any scene involves picking up a weapon, they must cut, the actor must check the weapon, then resume filming after. This must be done on every take.

  • On one hand, unmanned airplanes (drones or remote controlled) will outfly anything with a human on board, because humans are generally the weakest part of the plane. No human = no cockpit or life support, no hatch, no windows, no ejection seats, etc. An equivalent drone plane will be lighter, more structurally sound, and can maneuver at g-forces that will kill a human pilot.

    That's the hardware side of things, of course.

    The software and information security is definitely not there yet... But I'm sure Elon thinks it'll be ready "next year" just like Full Self Driving...

  • I think it still sucks as a turn your brain off movie.

    There really isn't much action for, like, 80% of the movie. It's too busy trying to be smart and utterly failing, so either way that's a ton of boring unenjoyable talky stuff whether your brain is on or off.
