    Autonomous Systems

    Variation always adds complexity in manufacturing. The path forward there is really machine learning and vision processing. There are still challenges of the tool you use to manage the payload (consider picking up a small box holding a piece of jewely vs something large and heavy like a box of...

    Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark (2019)

    In Soviet Russia, you don't read the book, the book reads you. The creature effects look cool, I even recognize some from my childhood.

    The Matrix (1999)

    Texas Chainsaw Massacre Night of the Living Dead (b&w) Invasion of the Body Snatchers The Exorcist All were pretty harsh to watch as a kid. I think NotLD was NR and Body Snatchers PG but still will wreck you when you are little.

    Captain Marvel (2019)

    I went to watch it yesterday with the wife. It is absolutely too "on the nose" with feminism. Although it wasn't a turd per se, I will be disappointed if she takes a major role in Endgame. The character just isn't likeable and I don't want to see her dominate the pinnacle of this story arc...

    I really enjoyed that segment as a kid. Once I grew up a bit the Quitters Inc. part really resonated with me (fuck cigarettes). Plus it had my boy James Woods!

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Had my 2017 Golf-R ECU and TCU tuned for APR Stage-I a few weeks ago. Just under 4s 0-60 now and a helluva lot of fun to drive. I'm contemplating rebuilding the engine with forged internals and going full Stage-III now but not exactly sure I want to deal with the emissions dance every year and...

    Answer the question above you, no matter what it is

    Depends on how old I am; if I'm in my 80s then maybe. Space is a dangerous thing, especially on unproven tech. If you could get $1,000,000 but a random person must die (a la "The Box") how much money would be 'enough'?

    Answer the question above you, no matter what it is

    That humanity, as a whole, lacks the intelligence/wisdom to survive. Would you rather fight The Predator or a xenomorph from Aliens one-on-one?

    Alita: Battle Angel (2018)

    It was full of great action and visuals wrapped around a cliché story about a heroine making her way in a dystopian world. We all know that story and I would suspect die-hard fans of the anime/manga would find even more issue with the execution (which was uninspired to say the least). In the...

    Pet Sematary (2019)

    New trailer is out. It looks to have high production values, but if you hadn't seen the movie, you have after watching the trailer! My favorite comment was, "They buried the original movie and this is what came back!".

    The Changeling (1980)

    A bit of Serendipity, this is now on Shudder. Signed up a bit back and really digging their selection...reasonably broad with some obscure offerings mostly specializing in horror/suspense. For like $5 a month it ain't so bad.

    The Changeling (1980)

    It's a very good horror movie. I'm surprised it hasn't made its way to Shudder, Netflix, Vudu, etc. Didn't know it was up on Youtube will have to give it another watch! If you like classic horror (that doesn't slap you in the face with the answer or is loaded with jump-scares) you will dig this.

    The Sad, sad, state of MMORPG in this brave new era...

    Yeah, I feel you need an item budget that considers mob level, density, and perhaps a few other factors like encounter composition and maybe even a bit of luck on what drops. Leaving it completely open people (as a population) will take the easy way out for loot and with arbitrary ideas for how...

    Weird Dream Sharing

    Memory is a weird thing. I work with a guy who won 4/6 numbers in the lotto from a dream (he couldn't remember the last 2). Would have totally been worth the couple grand to buy all of the possiblities. That said, I think that was just dumb luck and not premonition. Your case is your brain...

    Mandy (2018)

    Watched this last night with the wife. Sold out theater. It starts a little slow, then turns bat-shit crazy about 1/3rd in. If you want to see what Nic Cage made into a movie would be, look no further. 7/10 and worth a watch; more-so if you REALLY like Nic Cage.

    The Predator (2018)

    Regarding movies I'm gonna check Mandy out once I get back home Monday. Hear it is a pretty badass movie. I watched the Nun the day before which was like a 5/10 (or like 5x better than The Predator, lol). The story reminded me of an old horror novel called The Keep, although Wan referenced an...

    The Predator (2018)

    As a big fan of the Aliens and Predator universe I couldn't help but see this...it's not worth seeing, even free. Definitely tries too hard to he funny, the nods to the earlier films were lame, and the plot was well, retarded. Save yourselves and avoid it.

    Mission: Impossible - Fallout (2018)

    Nothing new to say that hasn't been said already. If you like action, this was a helluva fun ride. Tom may be a crazy motherfucker IRL, but he was born to play in these movies. Agree with the previous posters point about the cinematography; really well done for an action film.
