zerocool commented on Cairo, Egypt

There is a Pizza Hut restaurant right across that archaeological site with famous Sphinx without a nose. 4 min walk. It's a pretty crowded neighborhood right next to the Pyramids.

zerocool commented on Flight path simulation and audio from Kobe Bryant's Sikorsky S-76B helicopter

It's quite mysterious why did the pilot nose dive straight to the mountains so suddenly, and with such a speed.

At 6:10 it states like this:
''The helicopter dropped 325 feet (100 m) in 14 seconds. It reached 176 miles per hour (283 km/h), then lost contact with air traffic control.''

zerocool commented on YouTube tells controversial facial recognition company to stop collecting its user data

In other words, the content is yours and it's not yours. So you can delete the video, but the moment it's submitted to YT, it deals with it the way it wants, and your deletion does not force them to actually remove the content if they reproduced it somewhere else already? Just curious...

zerocool commented on Tesla's stock falls in a dramatic stumble from its all-time high!

But it's not that bad actually. Tesla is up more than 80% in 2020 alone according to cnbc.com

zerocool commented on YouTube tells controversial facial recognition company to stop collecting its user data

But does YT really own videos uploaded to its servers? I mean, shouldn't users own data that is uploaded to YT and therefore be in charge what other 3rd party companies may or may not do with it?

Honestly, I've never read YT Privacy Policy. Not sure if I want to either.

zerocool commented on Elon Musk claims it 'won't be long' before Tesla's Model S can travel 400 miles on a single charge

There needs to be a technology shift with battery production. At this point, it's just numerous attempts to enhance what we already know has its limits.

zerocool commented on Panic buying of face masks is unwarranted and could pose risks for health workers, experts say

I don't think face masks would be 100% proof for this. I think gloves would be as equally important as face masks. Of course, touching face with hands/gloves doesn't help either.

zerocool commented on Facebook pushes back on Soros op-ed alleging 'special relationship' between platform and Trump

When you can't control, or things don't go the way you want, then you accuse others. Such a standard moment of human psychology.

Tim Cook, MBS and Lauren Sanchez's brother Michael walk in a bar. Tim Cook says, 'Hey, I have a hole in the iOS so Jeff can be exposed to the hackers. SMB then says 'Hey, I already sent him a video with malicious code to break into his iPhone'. But then Michael turns around and says 'Hey, my sister sent me his penis pic, I have it on my phone. Wanna check?' Tim and SMB be like ?? ?

zerocool commented on Coronavirus: Britons on Wuhan flights to be quarantined

In the old days, quarantines were a common way to prevent spreading diseases. Many old cities throughout Europe had such a system in place due to different disease outbreaks.

E.g. the old city of Dubrovnik, once an independent Republic, had a set of interconnected buildings located 300 m away from its city walls called Lazzarettos of Dubrovnik. Everyone coming from affected areas would have to spend a month there before entering the city.

The only problem here is that the other boyfriend is a jerk too, he's just patiently waiting for his chance. So poor woman actually does not have much choice.

zerocool commented on Hong Kong is terrifying

Hong Kong's house price-to-income ratio is 18.1, meaning that, at the city's median annual household income of HK$300,000, the median cost of a home is more than HK$5.4 million.

And that is some US$695,000.00
