Part of me thinks it's auto companies both making sure they dot their i's and cross their t's in case they get hauled into court regarding vehicle safety as well as hammering "look, we're safer than other vehicles!&

That is insanely frustrating. Does the car turn itself off if you're in park and undo your seatbelt?

Absolutely amazing how Google can release these updates for devices that _they make and support themselves_ without first running tests on the operating system and making sure these things don't happen. Yes, I'm sure there's

It is absolutely astonishing that we rely on layers and layers of shims/compatibilities/hacks to keep a technology that was well-meaning and ideal 30ish+ years ago running in the 21st century. Same thing in the VOIP/telecom s

Will be very _very_ interesting to see if the tech develops enough in my lifetime to where people can send in spit samples to a medical firm, have their genome processed and then the medical company can remove any genetic predispositions to

I'm sure this was entirely intentional. They announce changes to pricing that vastly exceed what people would reasonably expect and have the internet outrage for a couple weeks so Unity can pull a "we listened to our users!"

Are there climate control issues preventing children from going to school? What I mean is - do the schools have adequate HVAC to keep the school cool, or is it for another reason? Where I grew up the weather in summer was typically over 85f

Apple is right that standardizing to one connector will stifle innovation of new charging connectors - though USB-C is pretty darn good right now and I don't think we'll need something better for a while. I'm wondering what k

Man, it would be so cool to take a chartered/guided dive to the ship, maybe swim inside and check out the wreck yourself. I'm sure if that was a thing you'd have people trying to scratch their names in the walls and stealing

It's very interesting that Call of Duty is willing to put in all the development time and effort to pay for and implement this feature when in all reality, the feature has already existed and it's power is in the hands of the play

As a side project I'm looking at making an autonomous vehicle of some kind, starting with a ground vehicle and eventually moving to something on or under the water. It's mindboggling how many different ways there are to communicat

I'm curious to see what types of vehicles they're making and which ones are selling the most. I would assume the majority of Chinese electric trucks are not comparable to what the west has worked on and is releasing (Rivian, Ford

I wonder if it was intended to be filled with items, or if it was just one big joke? "Heh, someone's going to find this long after I'm dead and open it to find nothing but a chunk of dust, and they're going to think it w

Genuinely asking - don't modern helicopters have the ability to hover or go on autopilot in some capacity, or am I (likely) very _very_ ignorant when it comes to helicopters? I agree with you that the person shining lasers into helico

Apple continues to push the envelope when it comes to product design and anti third-party repair. They must really hold the quality of their devices to such a high standard, that even people who would willingly accept the "risk" o

That's the most frustrating part for me with Tiktok, Youtube shorts, instagram etc. I wish you could scrobble through a video - it's more frustrating on Youtube because you always could and now all of a sudden you can't, and

I find it absolutely stunning that all this is going on - and yet people still can't see what's happening in front of their eyes. Immigration needs to slow down _massively_ - it doesn't need to stop and I don't want it t

At the risk of sounding like I'm flaming - which I'm not - it seems like a pretty privileged viewpoint for you to posit that the recent trend of more people raising concerns about cost of living and wages are simply anti-governmen

The Canadian economy is fueled by rising real estate prices, price gouging/profiteering by a select few families, and wage suppression. I'm not surprised the government is enticing 10k (and potentially more) tech workers who are r

It's so laughably stupid. "Trust us, we have a safety mechanism in place." What safety mechanism? Can they elaborate, especially when they're asking for backdoors/tools that will enable them to view private messages

Is this the first time that Hurricane Electric has censored a website on their network? From what I viewed on Kiwi Farms a while back out of curiosity, I came off with the opinion that it was paparazzi for internet celebrities ran by the wo

There's many reasons why someone wouldn't want to go to China. Cost and language barriers are the biggest ones I would assume for the vast majority of potential visitors. From a tech-minded perspective, the list gets larger. You&#

Very interesting - I like how Microsoft has changed from testing their own software to making their own users dogfood it for free! I remember seeing a video or article somewhere that went into how Microsoft tested their OS on various hardwa

Adobe's web-based JPG to PNG converter is exactly like this. Upload a JPG, hit convert - it uploads the file, processes it on their end, and then refuses to give you the result until you "sign up for a free adobe account that we c

I had a Hyundai vehicle 5-6 years ago with a problem where the power steering would just outright _stop_ - didn't matter if you were driving residential, parked, driving on a highway, it would just randomly _stop_. It's very scary

I think your idea of certificates handed out by government is horrifying, but I agree it seems to be the only way to guarantee that you are who you say you are - even though it comes with several potential avenues for abuse. I think we&#x27

Wouldn't that cause condensation problems with the phone? Not sure if that's a valid way to charge your phone or not. Would be interesting if it was!

I can absolutely see why kids go to social media for their news and not traditional sources. It's flashy, fast, catchy, with music, or made into compelling short form stories that (depending on what you watch) can be partially, wholly,

It's been quite a while since I dipped my hand in Android development, but from what I recall when you made an Android project, you had to set the API "Level" - which changes every new version of Android. I assume Google is l

Dang, they have a tiny blower fan inside that spins at 20k RPM. That would be annoying spinning at high speeds. Very impressive they're able to cram that much performance into an Android handheld, but part of me wishes Microsoft would
