There are other issues with Tesla's auto wipers. The main one is that, in other cars, you can have the wipers on auto, while still manually increasing or decreasing their speed. So if the wipers aren't going fast enough for you, y

Yeah, the random chats were definitely the highlight. I recall a level of discourse considerably higher than what you commonly find on eg. Omegle now (or 5 years ago or whenever I last used it, anyway).

Often the problem with using excess solar capacity is that the capital cost of the thing that would use it (desalination plants are one example) is so great that it's not cost effective to leave them idle at other times of the day. Any

I get a similar volume, and gmail likely detects almost all of them. Problem is, it also falsely detects the occasional non-spam message, so I do need to periodically scan through the spam box, which is a bit of a pain when it contains hund

I'm Canadian too, but my guess would be that sharing what they know publicly would give away too much about how they learned it, and would give adversaries a better chance of hiding more in the future.

They may well have done. It seems a lot of lawmakers moved toward the opinion of banning tiktok after receiving classified intelligence briefings.

Yes; I'm basically saying one should reconsider before ever using this phrase, as it drips with condescension, and therefore is not conducive to productive discourse.

I agree with the categorization, but have to also agree with Musk that it's not tenable for a single country to be able to censor a piece of content for the entire world.

This patronizing phrase should really be scrubbed from the modern lexicon.

It's not useless, but it's a very specific use case: commuting in rush hour traffic.

In theory the point of this system, unlike level 2 systems, is that you _don't_ need to do that. Of course, not having used it, I can't comment on how successful it is.

Tesla requires the driver to pay attention to the road at all times, even with "FSD". (And having tried it, you would definitely want to do so.) This system does not have that requirement, on roads where it's supported. What&

A small percentage of people control the vast majority of the money, and thereby control the output of the AIs. Everyone else most likely gets by on a UBI. If everything is truly abundant, they may well even have objectively better quality

I had fun spoofing friends' email addresses (only for harmless jokes). Amazing to think now that there was a period when anyone could convincingly and effortlessly send an email as anyone else, and it wasn't widely abused.

I have a will, as should everyone, but I wouldn't call it an alternative to a service like this.

The "but" is that I will almost certainly outlive this service. I don't remember the name, but there was something similar, though a bit more built up and polished, a few years back. Seems like a good idea, so I set it up. A

Or in one step, by combining them from smallest to largest, combining and carrying as you go.

One cool thing about the purely additive notation is that you can then add numbers together by just gathering up all their characters, sorting largest to smallest, and combining any groups of 5 or more.

Interesting. I was recently wondering if it might be time to move away from VLC, as two frustrations seem to be persisting forever: 1) every single time I try to full-screen a video, it goes to the wrong monitor, and is therefore invisible.
