I gotta ask, what’s the situation with the senate? It would seem like a colossal lack of communication if the house bans it but the senate doesn’t. Or if the senate already banned it, why the house didn’t then? Shouldn’t they be relatively on the same page?

Pretty sure they can tell the method used when disengaging fsd/ap. So they would know if it was manually turned off or if the system lost enough info and shut it down. They should be able to tell within a few seconds if accuracy the order of events. I can’t imagine a scenario that wouldn’t be blatantly obvious where the tesla was able to determine an accident was imminent and shut off fsd/ap wroth enough time to “blame it on the driver”. What might be possible is that the logs show fsd shut off like a millisecond before impact/event and then someone merely reported that fsd was not engaged at the time of the accident. Technically true and tesla lawyers might fight like hell to maintain that theory, but if an independent source is able to review the logs, I don’t see that being a possibility.

The bots will just come up with something fake to scan and carry on as they always have.

Like a real human eye? Is this how Skynet starts?

I specifically look for negative reviews before buying something. I haven’t really put numbers to a ratio of good to bad where I feel reassured about buying something but I’m sure it’s there. If your product has 5000 reviews with no bad ones, something is fucked up. If the majority of the reviews are “the delivery guy spiked the package on my porch and it was broke I’D GIVE ZERO STARS IF I COULD” then that’s a little better. Someone somewhere is going to have a legit grievance. I want to know what that is.

But the alternative is nothing.

Did they read 1984 and think, “This is a fantastic idea!”?

Oi! I sometimes muck up the details about me life. Am I a lad or lady? Gay or straight? Is all good guvna!

when the general populace voted for an continue to support this

Did they though? Only 63.4% of voting eligible citizens voted in '24. And of those only 49.8% voted for trump. He has never won a majority of the popular vote. Ever. It’s due to the electoral college and the cap on representatives in the house. This gives a significant advantage to lower population states that typically lean republican. Those rules seemed to make sense before we could reasonably collect, count results, and communicate that info in a day. Those rules no longer make sense but as it benefits the republicans they will hold that hill until they die. This country would be shaped very differently if we used the popular vote.

I love seeing all the tacticool “operators” with their tricked out ARs, bulletproof vests and helmets, flexicuffs, and other shit but look like they get gassed slowly ascending the stairs from their mother’s basement. Rule #1 in the zombie apocalypse is Cardio.

Also society isn’t going to collapse overnight. If it does it will be a slow crawl until going full Gravy Seal is warranted. They need to survive until then.

What am I consuming? I’ll give them free info. Pretty much nothing I’m seeing ads for.

More like a zero.

What about “you haven’t even thanked us!” to Zelensky?

If someone can’t walk a few blocks, that’s on them. Airplanes don’t get you exactly to the destination either. There’s a tradeoff.

E: For all the “What about the elderly or disabled?” If they can’t walk a few blocks and also can’t afford a car or taxi/Uber, what should they do? Mobility devices exist. Handicap accessible buildings are federally required. Your argument is merely a thought terminating interruption. That problem can easily be addressed.

1 star reviews on the app store consistently mention sync issues and bugs that delete notes and don’t allow opening. Have you encountered any of this?

Pretty sure current tech is difficult to get blood pressure from a watch. The results vary a lot depending on how firmly the watch is against the skin and where in the wrist it’s registering. It also needs to be calibrated using a normal cuff.

Apologies, I’m no longer as technically literate as I used to be. I’ve no idea what that means.

Is there any alternative to chromecast out there with more privacy?

I like referring to it as xitter, pronounced “shitter”. What were once tweets are now steaming piles of xit. Or someone taking/dropping a xit.

Biggest controversy about our president at that time was that our president got blowjobs.

Consensual blow jobs.

Smack me in the back of the head like yoshi and I’ll swallow anything… anything
