I've gone to that site for 3 years, and am under 18 (3 more weeks till I'm 18, woohoo!). I never had to say I was over 18 to enter. Moreover, I've never even noticed pr0n ads on that page...guess that's why banner advertising companies are going down under...

Sorry if it's inappropriate.

P.S. that site was actually showed to me by a teacher during school, so I never really even knew it was only for people > 18.

"IN 1950, the British mathematician Alan M. Turing proposed a simple test to determine whether or not a computer could think as humans do. In this ingenious exercise, a human "interrogator" would question a subject in a remote location for five minutes. Once a computer placed in the remote location were able to fool its interrogator and pass as human, that computer will have achieved human sentience. Keep in mind Turing was used to the wooden, stultifying conversation patterns of British humans.

Turing predicted that by the year 2000 a computer would exist that could pass his test and pass itself off as human. Sick of hearing such smug predictions from the deceased British number-cruncher, we tested Dr. Turing?s test on a Dell PowerEdge 6400 with a 100MHz front side bus and 32KB level 1 cache running Microsoft Windows 2000 Server, connected to a T-3 line and placed in room 508 of the St. Ursala Assisted Living Facility outside Lawrence, Kansas.

Section I: Easy Questions

MH: Hello. I?m going to ask you a few simple questions. State your name please.

Dell PowerEdge: Simon III.

MH: Your full name?

Dell: Max Felix John Simon III.

MH: Where are you from?

Dell: I?m from? Belize.

MH: Have any family?

Dell: No.

MH: What happened to them?

Dell: ?Earthquake.

MH: Sorry to hear. What do you do for a living?

Dell: Manufacturing.

MH: You mean you work in a factory, or you?re a supervisor?

Dell: Yes.

Section II: Psychology

MH: Please take out the pictures we emailed to you. What does the first one look like to you?

Dell: It looks like an ink splotch.

MH: Okay, but look deep into it, let your imagination run wild.

Dell: Two ink splotches.

MH: Deeper, wilder.

Dell: Actually, four ink splotches.

MH: Maybe you don?t understand. Look at these pictures, and then tell me what they remind you of. You know, like a butterfly, or a face. Try the second one.

Dell: Butterfly?

MH: Good! Now try the third.

Dell: Butterfly face.

Section III: Trick Questions

MH: It?s time to do the laundry. You need to wash a white t-shirt, a blue pinstriped button-down, a black turtleneck, and a red sweater with white polka dots. How many loads will you need to do?

Dell: Uh, but that could all fit in one load.

MH: Darks and lights in the same load?

Dell: Two loads would do it.

Section IV: Psychology Again

MH: Let?s play a little game. I?m going to say a word, and you say the next word that comes into your mind.

Dell: Sounds easy.

MH: Okay, here we go. "Dog."

Dell: Any member of a set of species including Canis familiaris or domesticated?

MH: No, no, no. I say a word, then you say what it makes you think of.

Dell: Oh, I get it. Try me again.

MH: Electricity.

Dell: Food.

MH: "Food"?

Dell: That?s what I thought of. Wouldn?t it be cool if electricity were not a dangerous threat to living tissue, but instead a filling meal? Of course, that?s not the case for humans like us.

Section V: Nap Time

MH: Are you a computer?

Dell: Nope.

MH: You?d be surprised how many fall for that one.

Dell: Not me.

Section VI: Math

MH: What?s fifty-six times thirty-three?

Dell: One thousand eight hundred forty-eight.

MH: You?re pretty fast!

Dell: Those are my favorite numbers.

MH: All right, how about five thousand and two divided by sixty-one?

Dell: Eighty-two.

MH: Right again! Are you some sort of math whiz?

Dell: Those are? more of my favorite numbers.

Section VII: Computer Science

MH: How good are you with computers?

Dell: About the same as an average person, I?d say. Yourself?

MH: Here?s an easy question. Let?s say you type the following program into a computer:

10 PRINT "HELLO"

20 GOTO 10

What do you think would happen?

Dell: Ha! Ha ha. Well, I? Um. I think? RRNNEEAAAAHH!!!

    • Isn't the CPU used to calculate the parity for the RAID? If so, the combination of SSDs and 10GBe might make the CPU more important
    • yeah GSMA began working to enable end to end encryption between android and iphone last year and apparently a new standard was developed. apple has said that they would implement this in "future software updates" but i haven't heard anything since march, the time this was all reported on. shortly after, i read on forbes that the FBI suggests not sending texts between iphone and android because they're unencrypted. i use signal to chat with my wife but i'd rather just use messages tbh (she has an iphone), i'm not really a 3rd party guy haha
    • Well, I did not like the trailer for the project he went to work on also, but why do you think he should waste time with this… did you love the season 2?

I love the first last of us game… while not the BEST it was one of the games that I will remember for the EXPERIENCE it game me… last of us 2 was not on the same level at all and the show🤔 complete miss in my experience of the first few level
