You didn't watch the finale, then?

Riiiight, you go back in time and you just HAPPEN to see one of the most famous figures from history, Marie Antoinette. Because deep down, the universe just wants to be your fucking tour guide.

I remember thinking how unbelievably crap this looked at the time of broadcast... I was just a kid.

"are things that are there and and should not be and yet are"

LOL good one.

Yoda didn't have atrocious communication skills.

I don't know what that means.

Sorry, I didn't realise you were joking.

No understanding.

The video's ridiculous but to be fair I don't think your description of Google fares much better.

I never said intelligent algorithms are impossible. Please reread and try to understand what my comments actually say, rather than projecting an erroneous position onto me.

"Stimulating and energizing" people with misleading pseudo-religious statements just doesn't sit well with me. This vid felt like it was by New Age quantum mystics rather than a tech company or science organisation.

Of course, but the salient point is that an intelligent human is the one doing all of the cognitive work, designing an "unintelligent algorithm" which is blindly performed by the physical device of the quantum computer. Fair?

Wow... one of the more indefatigably zany comments I've encountered on this website. I get the feeling you're a kid who's spends far more time reading sci-fi than he does reading science. Am I wrong?

Sounds like a gimmick to me. A large chunk of that video could very charitably be described as 'poetry' - more realistically as 'utter nonsense intended to mislead'. "Are we alone in the universe" - what!? This isn't Jesus in a box, this is computer science.

Why not..?

Meh, basing a TV series on a movie franchise doesn't usually work out well in my experience, even if the movies are pretty good.

I need a new PC capable of gaming. If Valve are selling these things at a loss, then buying a Steam Machine'll be smarter than building my own. Plus I can't be bothered to do hours of research for each of the components.

What the fuck are you talking about? Somebody runs a stop sign and kills a woman, and you're bitching about how finding them at fault was some kind of miscarriage of justice? There's something wrong with your brain.

Do you... do you know what video games are?
