Not only is autopilot functionality preserved, but there is a seperate speaker for alerts (like the "take over immediately" sound) as well for if the display MCU crashes.

Here (PDF warning) is a link to a study done (in 2018) that shows that an electric car produces less co2 emissions than an ICE car over 150,000km. It takes into account different types of ICE cars, it takes into account the environmental im

But there's a lot more that goes into accessibility services. Redirecting all output to a single mono headphone is really important, and most users who use talkback adjust the speed and how things are spoken to better suit them. And it

Think outside the box (outside the bulb?) z-wave "behind the switch" modules are super easy to install (you pull out the switch on the wall, and you put a small box in between the switch and the mains wiring), and you can control

Agreed, but if you are looking for alternatives with an identical API, then it doesn't seem like a good idea anymore (at least to me). The main theme behind the depreciation of Request is that the API is old and doesn't really fit

This is going to sound glib, but you can just keep using what you have now. If you take a look at [1], the maintainers of request aren't "deprecating" it in the sense that they won't touch it ever again. It really just m

And IMO that's a really good way of solving this issue! Rather than try to push a paradigm shift under a major version change in a library, and rather than just hand the library over to someone who may or may not be vetted enough, they

Sorry I misunderstood your previous comment. I assumed you meant that they should include safety features for no extra cost, which they do, not that they shouldn't charge anything at all for safety features, which is such a weird and e

They do. Autopilot is standard in every single car Tesla sells now, for exactly this reason. Here is the blog post on their website where they talk about making it standard: https://www.tesla.com/blog/update-our-vehicle

That technique leaves quite a lot of evidence around. Not only do you need every voter you buy the vote from to never speak up about it, but you also need to somehow hide all the mailing of absentee ballots, hide where you mail them back fr

I believe SpaceX isn't working with NASA to get Starship human rated by them. I think they are trying to do it 100% private, partially so they don't need to prove it to NASA's standards.

IIRC the word "explosion" has a very specific meaning in this context. I remember reading that the SpaceX AMOS-6 failure was specifically NOT an explosion even though it really looked like one to a layperson.
