Welcome to the real world Neo. Don’t take the pill with 777 permissions btw.

Change to Linux on main PC when?

Forget the military turning on itself, at that point the EU are sending troops over for an intervention.

Lower your shields and surrender your ships. We will add your judicial and regulatory distinctiveness to our own. Your culture will adapt no not misuse regional names for foods. Resistance is negotiable in parliament, but will take a long time to do so.

DER SHITPOST VON GIULIANI WAR EIN BEFEEEEEHL!!!

They are a lot more efficient in their class and might convince some ICE drivers to switch. Their range tends to be quite good. Unfortunately they have drawbacks:

• They require a very large battery. If you don’t find >150kW chargers, you’ll be waiting a long time
• More batteries per car = worse environmental impact from production
• Road degradation grows by the fourth power w.r.t. vehicle weight. The big batteries make electric SUVs very heavy
• SUVs are more dangerous for pedestrians due to their size
• In a crash SUVs deliver much more energy, killing more people.

I second this. Drove my Zoe through rain, snow and ice, never had any problem or even thought about with water ingress.

I don’t get it. People are working for free to add a feature to your product which might move more people to buy said product. Make users who use external features acknowledge some waiver that your company is not responsible for damage. If it turns out to be really good, you can fork it, hire the original inventor and turn it into a paid product. Isn’t that a risk-free win? Am I missing something?

Of course not. That is not remotely their goal.

Star Trek: Picard, when the Borg wake up and the Romulans just vacuum them out. In that moment the Cube should have automatically teleported them back inside. If the teleporters were down for some reason, the remaining Drones would just happily continue working in hard vacuum and proceed to assimilate the shit out of the Romulans. What happened was an uncalled for nerf of the Borg.

I thought so too, then I noticed people driving more aggressively.

Don’t forget that we recently had a pandemic with a virus that is known to cause permanent brain damage. This includes reduced motor function, mental capacity and personality changes.

I’m sorry if my grammar betrays my words, I am not a native speaker.

Bro, you just outphrased the native speakers.

… uh, why?

Along with search and many other things. Probably most of theur devs are optimizing user distraction and ad click rate, instead of… basic functionality 😐

I’m doing my part!

Good bot

(…do we say this here?)

Fun fact: You can recreate a lot of this by starting your own website. Remember all the quirky, niche stuff you could stumble over? Large corporate sites forced all of that onto their server and baited people with millions of views and money. Everything not viral was punished and hidden away. But we can still jsut put stuff on the web for free or for a couple of bucks with a webhoster somewhere. It’s work, it serves small audiences and it might be totally overlooked. But it will be YOURS.

In that sense, promote your blog or website here: https://feddit.de/c/blogging

I think this system is flawed beyond repair.

Of course, but will that stop somebody from trying to push it? ;)

There is a technical solution: Have cameras sign the raw data recorded from the sensor in situ, which allows you to check if a given video was recorded on a given device. You could even add another layer where the device uploads timestamps, frame hashes and location data to a blockchain (finally a usecase!) to pin it to a certain place and time. Sure, all of this can be circumvented with enough effort, but it will make it much harder. Especially if a video can be pinned to a place, you can verify if it matches that scenery.

I also enjoy shouting “Wololo” at other people’s computers, only to have them boot into Linux unexpectedly.
