Band Appears on Stage With Poorly-Disguised Robot Playing the Keytar

During a Chinese music festival, a humanoid robot named "Adam" graced the stage in what was half performance art and half marketing stunt — and did so while semi-disguised in a loose-fitting hoodie that did a terrible job obscuring its mechanical legs and hands that made it very clear that it was, indeed, a robot. As spotted by New Atlas, Adam the robot was dressed in a loose grey sweatshirt with the hood up, a long face mask, and Yeezy-style sneakers — but, let's be real, no pants — as it play

Does alleged iPhone 17 Pro leak show second Camera Control?

Yesterday we learned about three new potential iPhone 17 Pro camera features. Today a test unit was possibly spotted in the wild — potentially showing us the first glimpse at one of those rumored features. Frankly, I was a bit skeptical of the MacRumors tipster who anonymously claimed that iPhone 17 Pro would feature three hardware and software camera features that weren’t already leaked or rumored.

You should turn off this default TV setting ASAP - and why even experts recommend it

zdnet.com Chris Bayer 2025-08-04 18:30:17

Kerry Wan/ZDNET For many people, motion smoothing on TVs is only appropriate for gaming and watching live sports; enthusiasts typically prefer turning off the feature to watch anything else because it can detract from the filmmaker's original intent, making on-screen images seem artificial or hyper-realistic. This is what's called the "soap opera effect." Also: How to turn off ACR on your TV (and why you shouldn't wait to do it) It's a perfectly descriptive metaphor that probably requires no

Structural-Demographic Theory

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-08-04 14:04:03

The causes of revolutions and major rebellions are in many ways similar to processes that cause earthquakes (Goldstone 1991: 35). In both revolutions and earthquakes it is useful to distinguish the structural conditions (pressures, which build up slowly) from triggers (sudden releasing events, which immediately precede a social or geological eruption). Specific triggers of political upheavals, such as self-immolation of a fruit vendor, which triggered the Arabic Spring in Tunisia, are very hard
