Weird way to defend a company that did exactly that. October 2014 Tesla starts equipping Model S sedans with hardware that can automate some steering, braking, and acceleration functions. Although the software is not yet active, it calls t

The very best way I know to get someone to pay a debt they owe is to remove their ability to drive to/from work, and add impounding fines to the vehicle, after it's towed, since the driver can no longer legally drive it home again

>The new version of FSD 12.3 is pretty damn impressive. Ahh, so reality is nearing the marketing lies from a decade ago, finally. Neat!

>Yeah Boeing is fucked. Oh, I doubt that. Their bribes to congress are paid in full and they have some of the juiciest government contracts with which to pad their profits with egregious cost overruns.

Compat is a factor and valid in some instances. It's not valid at all in this case. The old systems are wholly insecure, and should not be offered at all. This is just some faceless corp being cheap and ignoring the consequences, not t

Cussing into chatboxes tends to demonstrate if its a human or a bot. They don't handle swearing well...yet.

I think this is the very first time that I've ever cheered for a patent troll.

It was used to signal the status of Trunk lines, specifically if they were in use or open/available. By blowing a 2600 tone at the right time, you could seize the trunk and reroute the call. I miss those days. Crawling in dumpsters at

They are, but sadly, blowing a 2600 down the line these days just gives someone in the CO a chuckle when they read the logs, a week later.

I have a few friends from back in ICQs heyday that still use it. It's kind of a running joke. One of us will fire up a client and login, then email the others asking, "where in the hell is everyone" and we'll use it for

I still know my password. :) I did have someone try to take it over about a decade ago, but the email it was linked to was still active, so GL! Apparently, a 6digit address is worth about $50 on Ebay, or was the last time I checked.

ICQ - 6 digit address. It's 30+ years old at this point. I still use it once in awhile. Sadly, my Compu-Serve account no longer works. :|

I've frozen all of mine, because thanks to Equifax, I don't have a choice. I wish you good luck opting out. I'm not talking about what the law says, I'm talking about how they act. Technically, you can dispute incorrect

ok, I'll bite: 1) What do you mean when you say “enshitification”? How is the world getting worse? By what measure? More violence, more bigotry, paying more and getting less not because things cost more but because stock price, minimum

That sounds like credit bureaus. You know, those entities that hoover up any and all info on you, that you cannot opt out of, maintain information whether its accurate or not and refuse to delete obviously erroneous data, then release it *a

The size of the salt "grain" required would crush any mortal man/woman/LargeAnimal and leave a 100m wide, 50m deep, divot in the ground.

The enshittification of the world continues apace.

Do you know how many motorcycle riders I see without anything on more than a t-shirt and jeans? They all wear a helmet, and I get riding leathers are hot, but a t-shirt?

+1 for the Daggerfall mention. I haven't thought about that game in 1000 years and loved it.

at 35mph?!?! You'll be sent into the air. Not 400feet or anything, but you will not simply be rolling gently over the vehicle, then hop off and continue your day. How high do you think someone can fly without cracking your skull when y

Oh, I agree 100%. Speed kills.

I've spent a large part of my career managing IT teams. I've worked with a lot of noobs. The issue I find more often is not that they don't know the info, they simply don't have the confidence in what they know and no re

That makes perfect sense. Thanks!

Speed is a factor. If you're a pedestrian, and the vehicle traveling at 35mph, the size matters much, much less. You're going for a ride, regardless.

It's a motorcycle. Almost any crash on a motorcycle is going to cause serious injuries/death. Guardrails contribute, but let's be real. Lay down a bike while driving at a good clip, or hit anything, guardrail or not, and you&
