Season 1, episode 14: ¥€$

I was re watching ¥€$ and at the very end you see Togusa at home - his wife explains she made ¥100,000 while day trading and turns off the computer. A moment later it turns itself back on and the trading program reactivates and a trade is entered. I can't read the text, but it looks like a trade of ...

Hooray! An excuse to re-watch e07 - Idolator - A revolutionary leader, Marcelo Jarti, has been replaced by an android with his ghost dubbed into it. He gets into a fist fight with the major. He's not a heavy load out guy and not technically a cyborg since there's no meat in there. e10 - Jungle Cruis...

https://techxplore.com/news/2018-06-world-smallest.html IBM's announcement that they had produced the world's smallest computer back in March raised a few eyebrows at the University of Michigan, home of the previous champion of tiny computing. Now, the Michigan team has gone even smaller, with a dev...

I recall the conversation between the Tachikomas and the generic secretary AI where they lead the generic AI astray and trap it in some thought process too complicated for ti's ability to process. They pass the Turing test, she does not. https://www.engadget.com/2018/05/08/pretty-sure-googles-new-ta...

They've now completed the shelling sequence using the new 3D model. https://blenderartists.org/forum/showthread.php?446983-Ghost-In-The-Shell-Fanfilm It's pretty epic. Also I just sort of had a thought while watching it. Where the prosthetic body "peels" and reveals skin color underneath. ...

I love the idea of putting the player in the game with the logo over their face! do they get to complete something to prevent themselves from being exposed? I've never seen a pinball game incorporate the player before - that is a very new sounding idea! On one hand you could do some clever kind of f...

Beautiful work. It would be cool if/when player does something "wrong" it grabs the attention of The Laughing Man and the TLM symbol pops up onscreen and other indications somehow...and you lose control of your flippers for a brief period. Laughing man or the Project 3501 AI/Puppet Master...

Good idea. The upper playfeild is going to showcase locking three balls in an intergate. This is simulating a hack or dive. But I can incorporate our though in it starting a “ground assault”. We are ready let’s move in. "dive" would be great text for going under something! I'd forgotten t...
