I just had the one month trial, it worked pretty well, but it’s too tentative. Like supervising a teenage driver.

While I’m going to ignore your clear issues regarding other people’s weight, there’s 258 million people, if a quarter of them spend $100 a year on “protein shakes” there’s your 6.5 billion, and now that number seems low.

There wasn’t anything resembling influencers, and mostly you were talking to other nerds.

People were much more technically savvy, and creating their own homepages with guestbooks and construction gifs.

He sold it into PayPal, then bought it back from PayPal a couple years ago.

Not sure how trademarks work, but I think it gets stickier when it’s used for different purposes. like how there’s Starcraft trailers and the game.

You only need the screen to operate a Tesla on any model without stalks.

I’ve never tried to open the frunk with voice commands, but it probably works.

No, because they normalize and have a relative metric.

The most stolen car is an SRT hellcat, which has a total production run well under Model 3 production in a single quarter.

Teslas are at or very near the bottom of often stolen car lists, by a wide margin.

There are many quite loud alerts when FSD is active in subpar circumstances about how it is degraded, and the car will slow down. That video was pretty foggy, I’d say the dude wasn’t paying attention.

I came up on a train Sunday evening in the dark, which I hadn’t had happen in FSD, so I decided to just hit the brakes. It saw the crossing arms as blinking stoplights, probably wouldn’t have stopped?

Either way that dude was definitely not paying attention.

That secure shoelace knot was an actual game changer. Shit just works.

I don’t mind a cover changing the meaning of a song, but stuff where the cover is just the song again is…lazy as fuck?

Like Fast Car by (country music guy) is fantastic, but it’s the same as the original, which is also fantastic. Feels cheap or something, I don’t know. Like the whole Weezer cover album was boring as fuck. The songs are technically great, but why listen to that over the originals? Rivers said his goal was to try and reproduce the original sound, which seems like an interesting exercise for the band, but not for the listener. So that wraps back around to respecting the band.

Anyways, I have a lot of strong feelings about covers. Make it your own, even if you don’t change it that much.

Netflix is a public company, you can just go look at how wrong you are about this.

They took in $9.3 billion in Q1 2024, and spent $702 million on “technology” and $3.7 billion on adding “content assets”

Their net profit was $2.3 billion, for one quarter. They could afford to just charge less money, but the line must go up.

Oh no, Grandma’s bitlocker will be vulnerable when the attacker gets physical access to her machine!

I saw this headline and immediately thought “ArmouryCrate is the reason”

I certainly avoid ASUS stuff after discovering that piece of nonsense on my new install.

Isn’t this a place for memes?

I use Multiviewer, having track maps and timing is sick

Projectivy Launcher works great. Set it as default on your Chromecast and never see the main UI again!

Reddit swallowed any community simply due to inertia. Everyone is already there, why build your own thing?

There are things called routers that…route traffic. A dumbed down version is routers talk to other routers to find out what they know about.

If a game server you connect to matches you with someone in Japan, your computer sends a packet with the address in Japan attached to it. Your home router probably has no clue where that is, so it goes to its upstream router and asks if they know, this process repeats until one figures it out and you get a route.

This all happens very quickly, and it’s why people say the Internet routes around damage.

There is a separate 12v that gets recharged by the HV.

Some of the new stuff looks cool, and for all of these knee-jerk reactionaries… optional.
