Is everyone else too lazy to make an OTT?

[quote name='DarthPuma']Does ATT really cancel your service if you use partner towers too much? We're legitimately 10 miles outside of their official coverage area.[/QUOTE]

They can.

EVERY carrier has that clause in contracts.

My brother had a T-Mobile phone for a few years, moved to an area that was 10-15 miles from official T-Mobile coverage areas, and they dropped himi after like 6 months.
 
Hey Sean I'm back. If you wanna play, lmk.

Mak, that's a good deal. Not too big a fan of mini PCs, but an i7 at that price is solid. Upgrade that GPU though.

How does something like this work? It just guessed that I was Meryl from MGS4 and Fred Durst from Limp Bizkit.

EDIT: And Yuna, even though I said the character wasn't from Final Fantasy.[/QUOTE]

It just has a big ol' database of people and their characteristics and asks questions that can eliminate the greatest number of those people at a time.

Damn. I know a lot of people that live here using ATT, so I figured there was a way around it.

Whoa, how embarassing, Music.

Have you beaten it yet? When you do (I just did with Francois Truffaut), it gives you a list of people who it "thought" were possible. You'll see they all have similar characteristics.

I imagine there's more to the algorithm though, since it asked me identify who I was thinking of (and Truffaut was on its list) and said that it "would do better next time," which makes me think that it "learns"--to a certain extent.
 
Lets go get waxed, DarthPuma. Brax0r can drive us.
He has a CD player in his car. :whee:

It seems like it goes off of user information, then just kinda molds suggestions from people and their answers to guess yours? I'm probably super wrong, but whatever. :cool:

I think it has a basis from what I said about eliminating people based on characteristics, and then "learns" who most people tend to lean to given certain characteristics by making a probability distribution of who it's most likely to be.

No way to know for sure without hitting up the author though; there are tons of different ways to do things when writing code.
 
I have a quiz to take at 5 but this thunderstorm is just sitting on top of my area. If I don't go hopefully he won't be a prick about it.
 
[quote name='DT778']If the Magic lose tonight you might as well give me the 20 bucks already stoneage.[/QUOTE]

Miracles can happen from time to time, DT778, and if they don't I'll pay you when the series is over. Immediately after I shave.

It correctly guessed Toshiro Mifune relatively quickly

Edit: But it was WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY off when I tried a character from a Dickens novel. Little Red Riding Hood? Weak.

A few years ago when it was the Mavs and Heat, I bet another CAG on the Heat after they were already down 0-2 and won myself 20 bucks. So yeah, it ain't over til it's over.
 
Parents go on vacation and the second day after I start dog sitting the dog mysteriously goes lame and can't walk.

Stupid vet won't take her until tomorrow afternoon.
 
[quote name='st0neface']The first one, zewone.

Edit: darthbudge just super-confirmed you should wear the first.[/QUOTE]

Sean agreed with me!
