  • I never had problems with the collision detection (flashing BRAKE), up until I drove a Fiat 500e recently. It seems to differ by make and model I guess.
    That Fiat was insanely obnoxious though: It plays a very loud DING and flashes the entire dash red, even if you’re going quite slow and can literally come to a complete stop with enough space between you and the car in front, just by taking your feet off the pedals and using regenerative braking.
    I drove it once and I got that warning like five times. Never had it before with Ford, Opel, Renault, …





  • Basically, amps tell you how fast electricity is moving. If you have a certain amount of amps running through your body, it will kill you (I think technically no matter the voltage?).

    Why doesn’t every battery kill you? Electricity at low voltages doesn’t have enough “strength” to push through your body, as your (electrical) ressistance is very high. The higher the voltage, the higher ressistance it can overcome.

    So if you touch say 12 V, only very very few microamps will flow through your body, which doesn’t matter.
    When you touch 230 V, now the electricity is strong enough to push somewhere between 10 - 100 mA through your body, which will kill you.
    (No guarantees that the amperage numbers here are correct, but the scale should roughly work out I hope).

    It all boils down to $U = R \cdot I$ (Voltage = Ressistance * Current).

    If you want to learn more about the subject, ElectroBoom has some great videos.

They will also get warning prompts for friend requests from potentially unfamiliar users, and DMs from unfamiliar users will be automatically filtered into a separate inbox.

    That shouldn’t be too restricting for people using discord to chat with their friends though.
