The worst piece of tech that I have ever owned in my life is a CD Cleaner I bought from GameStop back in the day. That shit was straight up a sacrificial altar. It never cleaned. Only consumed.

Oh shit, I remember those. They “cleaned” by using an abrasive spray to “polish” the CDs. Those things were straight-up evil.

Toyota is working on that, lol: https://insideevs.com/features/693877/toyota-ev-manual-transmission-tested/

Yeah I’ve seen a lot of dumb LLM implementations, but this one may take the cake. I don’t get why tech leaders see “AI” and go yes, please throw that at everything. I know it’s the current buzzword but it’s been proven OVER AND OVER just in the past couple of months that it’s not anywhere close to ready for prime-time.

takes notes so I can bring a quart bag with 3.4 ounce bottles of acid onto a plane.

I worked at a tree farm in my teens and honestly if I could still do that making what I make now I would be all over that. Always outside, in great shape, got to run heavy machinery, it was great.

This is the real reason I have one of those damn mouse jigglers. The timeouts on our laptop are CRAZY short, like 5 minutes tops. Just stepping away for some coffee or to take a shit then I have to re-authenticate. Heaven forbid I make myself a toasted bagel or something!

It’s even worse as I work 95% inside multiple virtual machines in the cloud that also timeout (and in some cases shut down) so there are multiple layers of password +2fa just to get back to whatever I was doing.

So yeah, $10 USB device from Amazon allows me to not spend a hour a day just having to re-auth.

Yep, the fab plant is a little east of Columbus (just south of where I live actually). This is one of like 2 dozen “super loads” that has to make its way from the Ohio River up to the plant. I swear there is a website somewhere that keeps track of when the are coming, the routes they take, and the closures involved but my Google-fu is failing me now.

Damn, I feel old now…

Not the person you asked but I have 100% had greens (I don’t think it was lettuce, maybe mustard) that I can only have described as melted. They turn from a normal leafy green into this nasty green sludge. I don’t know how long there were in there but I’m sure it was months.

This article is short on details but what I really want to know is WHERE is that data coming from and how the fuck does United have access to it?! Also, a follow-up question would be how does one ensure they don’t get access to that data? Is that even possible anymore?

What do you mean? It’s on the internet! Everyone knows you can just post fake shit on the internet!!

Is the entire far-right comprised of grifters and…for lake of a better term…griftees? I guess a fair few of them are criminals too.

heh, you don’t know how true this is. I’ve worked in IT for 2 decades. IT is pretty much always seen as a cost center.

If everything is running smoothly - “what are we paying you for?!”

If everything is on fire - " What are we paying you for!?"

And now with companies getting the tiniest of slaps on the wrists for willful negligence it’s cheaper to cut IT funding, outsource it, whatever.

If the cost of the fine is less than the profits gained by doing “x” then that’s just the cost of doing business. Execs will continue to do this until there are real consequences for the company and them directly.

I’ll look forward to my $0.50 check and exactly zero consequences for the higher-ups that I’m sure slashed IT/cybersecurity budgets.

I feel like “eat all politicians, burn the system down, and start anew” is a valid position, lol.

Oh wait you can do that? Damn I feel like an idiot now… I have 100% accidentally downvoted without realizing it.

Looks like the initial post is simply a person on a forum: https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/ap-fsd-related-crashes.264798/page-8#post-8259936

There are dashcam videos here but I’m not signing up for a dropbox to view them.

The best (subjective, I know) article that I could quickly find seems to be Yahoo: https://www.yahoo.com/tech/tesla-full-self-driving-mode-160500725.html

The videos here don’t load for me, could be an extension blocking them.

Not saying it’s not credible, but I would take it with a grain of salt.

That said, knowing the issues with FSD I would be shocked to learn this was made up, lol.

You can tell shit is really getting crazy when the list of people CC’d grows with every single reply-all, lol.

I finally did this last week, nuked out my Win 11 laptop install and switched to Ubuntu. I have yet to find anything I would need to go back to Windows for.

210 Ah cells to 90% in 12 minutes.

Assuming I can math early on a Monday morning:

90% of 210 is 189

189 / 12 is 15.75

So they charge at 15.75 an Ah per minute. Not sure how that compares honestly.
