- UqWBcuFx6NV4r 7mo agoThat is blatant whataboutism. Stop performing mental gymnastics and accept that what you personally want is not what’s good for society as a whole.
- fluoridation 7mo agoIt's not whataboutism, it's a legitimate question. How does it increase safety on the road to reject local SSH connections by a dumb user, when that same user can mess with the car physically?
- Thews 7mo agoHow does adding another way to cause safety issues affect safety? Give me root access so i can install openclaw.
- zeagle 7mo agoSimplest example: a driver could probably disable attentive driving checks by pasting a script in from a web search in a few minutes. Nothing like an inattentive 3750 lbs weapon.
- fluoridation 7mo agoA driver could also install a little machine that turns the wheel slightly at regular intervals, to the same effect.
- zeagle 7mo agoYeah and they could hire a professional driver or a engineer and IPO for billions a life sized driving AI powered crypto robot too. Look, like clearly google + ctrl-v scripting or running an one click deployment exe on your computer on a whim is different than physically ordering/picking up something and then installing it into a vehicle?
- fluoridation 7mo agoOf course they're different, but you're trying to argue that the former takes objectively less effort than the latter, and it doesn't. One or the other may take less effort depending on who you are and what you know.
- thinkmassive 7mo agoI've heard multiple people claim an ankle weight on the steering wheel is sufficient for hands-free driving.
