To stop for charging?

Hah, that is definitely not the short term result. The yoke is upside down every drive for me. Just getting out of the driveway it's going to be upside down. The yoke is fine doing extreme turns, my hands find it and I can turn it all

It seems I don't understand what you're talking about. Sorry! I must have been very unclear in my parent post... What makes you believe I think I can't safely operate my car? I don't know what “mirror checks” you mean

If it would come to that, I would just not do it. It would be a peripheral activity anyway, if it's not afforded by my steering wheel or voice controls. So, yes, I would stop to navigate that. Not sure what that would be, in your ca

I can do those all without taking my eyes off the road. Not sure what you mean?

Would you own a car that has an associated app for a phone or tablet? The app would do things like planning trips, showing mileage statistics, giving you verbose errors in case the vehicle has issues, and for an EV you could plan and contro

A long time ago, I was a kart racing enthusiast, so I've always appreciated the direct, visible connection between the steering wheel and the wheels. It offers a tangible, physical sense of control. Not sure what Tesla did with the Mo

I've been driving a new Tesla for the past months, and the on-screen climate and media controls actually don't bother me much at all. Granted, it's not actually a cascaded menu, so maybe I'm not really responding to you

Not sure what you mean, actually. Navigate? You mean pressing the microphone button and saying "Let's go home", or some other kind of navigation? Route planning typically happens when stationary — or if you have passengers,

I absolute prefer proper physical interfaces for the most commonly used things. Like steering, acceleration, breaking, blinking, volume control, door handles, wipers, that sort of things. These are things I would use almost every drive. H

I've understood the CE marking to mean that according to the manufacturer, the device shouldn't catch fire, shouldn't shock me, and shouldn't give off a lot of radio interference. Never did I thank that would be some kin

Here, “young” means measured from the Big Bang. Our sun is made from the stuff of previous stars.

That’s not the same thing, I believe.

Is it innovation if a herd of business people lead a product for a couple of decades and drive it into the ground because they are chasing their bonuses? Or just bad ownership?

But, Docker doesn't even, and I'm on Windows, whoever needed access control, waah waah. </s> Unix domain sockets are great. I find it completely amazing that they are not used more widely. Since when was it OK to open

The point is that the private key resides on a tamperproof piece of hardware. Malware, viruses, or shoulder surfers cannot copy the key. The solution is to set up multiple pieces of secure hardware, not writing down the keys to the castle

A main idea of passkeys is that the private keys are bound to hardware and cannot be copied. Using the private key is subject to biometric authentication. This eliminates a whole category of issues where the private key could get stolen.

Why do you believe that introducing support for passkeys inherently makes the situation worse? If you don't trust them, you're not forced to use them; traditional methods still exist. In any case, you should have multiple methods.

My Finnish debit and credit cards are equally accepted everywhere. I normally pay with Apple Pay, also sometimes chip & pin, and of course online. For all purposes, they are the same. In fact, they are bundled in the same physical car

I find it baffling how some archaeologists draw detailed narratives of ancient life from just one, often ambiguous, piece of evidence.

Sounds like a dysfunctional workplace, or at least a very bad manager, if one has to secretly help colleagues. I'd leave that boss or job as soon as possible. Giving praise should always be OK. Rephrasing feedback for bad work as p

I’m pretty sure it’s manually forced, but I would be delighted to be educated otherwise.

One could drive from the south of Finland to Lapland and back without taking a piss break, in that, you could.

The stickiest code I ever wrote was an open source library released in 2000 or thereabouts. It’s still in use, and still new users are adopting it. Someone made a Wikipedia page for it. I think it’s embedded in most Apple products. Other

Not impossible at all. For me, ⌘-space, then typing pass is enough for Spotlight Search to suggest the Passwords section in System Settings.

In my experience, most successful entrepreneurs are usually quite good at accurately assessing risks. They are simply more capable and willing to embrace certain risks in pursuit of greater rewards in the future.

Hetzner. Their functionality for this is clunky as heck, but I have more trust in the company than other registrars.

This is something to watch out for especially if you're switching from screen to tmux. When you start a screen session, it will always copy the environment from your shell. When you start a second screen session, it will inherit a p
