  • If anyone's curious, modern "virtual" pinballs, which are just a computer under a large screen inside a pinball frame, replicate this by using an accelerometer (like the one in our phones).

    The pinball emulation software is fed tilt metrics, and usually that software decides when to call it fault.

    And if anyone is really curious you can read in detail here: http://mjrnet.org/pinscape/BuildGuideV2/BuildGuide.php?sid=tilt

  • Wow, I definitely didn't expect that "Factual Reporting" would be "Mixed", however going through the list, it shows several instances where they misunderstood either a scientific paper or misrepresented some fact.
    That said, I had before in some cases seen articles about AI being either false, misunderstanding the facts, or just parroting some CEO. I attributed it to AI being something relatively "new" to mainstream media, but this is pretty much eye opening.

    I like their "long read" articles though, but I guess it's time to find a new main everyday paper for me...

  • The experience for this last year was that once the US stopped supporting Ukraine, the rest of the west folded as well, which let them regain the initiative.
    I know nothing about anything but it seems like they've learned that with enough patience the US and most NATO allies support will wane with time.
