That's better.

[Khaospawn]

Cut me out a big ole gator tail.

[redthirst]

I over heard the following most RedThirst comment ever while at the mall on lunchbreak:

"WTF? Why is she wearing a firemans hat in this picture?"
"Cause I set her pussy on fire mate."

I promptly snorted and choked and got a nose full of pepsi.

There's probably something there about handling a fire hose too.

[Valdarith]

Or drinking from a fire hydrant.

Or drinking from a fire hydrant.

Thats a reward for doing exceptionally well.

Thats the exact scene i was thinking of. . . except a different version happens in his bedroom.

This is how you fire shots From Magnus Carlsen AMA on Reddit:

[–]perrii 157 points 3 hours ago
Hi! What do you think of Nakamura joking with calling you Sauron on Twitter?

[–]MagnusOenCarlsen 909 points 2 hours ago
I've never actually watched Lord of the Rings... if I had, and Nakamura had been a better chess player, I might have been more insulted.
---
Nakamura is the 7th best player in the world.

[DocLawless]

And Magnus Carlsen is number 1 in the world, for those of you who missed the reference. Also, sweet burn.

[DocLawless]

Hey, Khaos! Would you like a Bloody Mary?

[Dechs Kaison]

I thought number 1 in the world was a computer.

[DocLawless]

Dunno. I just know the name.

[zemanjaski]

There are many computer programs rated higher than human Grand Masters but they don't play in sanctioned tournaments.

[Dechs Kaison]

What I don't get is: why? There's a human programmer behind that AI. He should get the credit for being "smarter" than the human players.

[hamfactorial]

Chess, sure, but could he win the Drownyard mirror?

[Jack]

What I don't get is: why? There's a human programmer behind that AI. He should get the credit for being "smarter" than the human players.

I highly doubt that programmer could beat Magnus Carlsen.

[Khaospawn]

Hey, Khaos! Would you like a Bloody Mary?

You're goddamn right I would!

[Khaospawn]

Jesus Fucking Christ, Doc, Please tell me you really made that. And devoured all of it.

[DocLawless]

Unfortunately no, that pic is a product of the interwebs.

[Khaospawn]

Dammit, man. You got my hopes up and everything.

[DocLawless]

Hey, you can make one too. All you need is some vodka, tomato juice, tobasco, horseradish, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, a pizza, a ham sandwich, some sweet pickles, a few chicken wings, a lime wedge, a jalapeno, a small order of fries, five green olives and eight onion rings.

I highly doubt that programmer could beat Magnus Carlsen.

But he could, and did, with his program. The programmer knows all the correct logic, as displayed by the fact that his program, his logic, his design is better than any human at chess. All the computer does for him is the math.

Game on >:)

This is really painful.

[TBuzzsaw]

Picked up a full set of the new Duress promo with Ashiok mind-raping Dack Fayden. I'm contemplating playing BW Midrange just so I can use them and make my opponents go WTF is that.

If I - at 5'9" 149lbs with very little training other than long-distance running - built a robot and programmed it to wrestle and beat James, would that make me stronger than him?

I mean, all the computer does for me is the fighting, amirite?

[zemanjaski]

I'm only 1" and 11lbs heavier than you Kaze, I believe in you.

Not stronger, but I would say it makes you smarter than him.

Much better sensation.

Pacific Rim 2: James wrestles a robot and destroys Melbourne

Well, at least this version would have a plot.

I'd watch it.

Playing chess and programming an AI are two very different things.

Pacific Rimjob 2: James wrestles a robot and destroys its anus

I don't get why would that be "pacific" at this point

[Dechs Kaison]

Playing chess and programming an AI are two very different things.

My point is, the computer doesn't think in any way that the programmer can't. It doesn't know any moves that a human doesn't. It's not a robot that can physically beat the other player.

In my mind, the number one chess player programmed that AI.

The computer doesn't think, period. It just does what it's told to, using an amount of raw computational power that no human mind has access to, without experiencing fatigue, stress and the likes.

The computer can beat the human player, but it's
in no way "smarter" than him - it just wins on raw power.
The guy who programmed the best computer player is not "the number one chess player", he doesn't even need to be a good *player* at all, he's just very skilled at his task, and that task is not playing chess.
