It’s not a serious question to ask if there was an ‘epidemic’. That is clearly a straw man. Backup cameras were mandated as a result of cases of children being run over, because mirrors are inadequate to detect their presence.

How about they apply their own theory to the framing of ‘information warfare’ that they simply assume as a factual part of what is happening but make no attempt to investigate? Obviously there is literal information warfare in the sense of

Surely that is true of all professions.

1. We’re talking about people who have already switched it off. 2. There is no need for any tracking to implement this. It can be done on the client.

You’ve simply repeated the contradiction. We know that slurs are meant to denigrate. We not only don’t know that appropriation is intended to do harm. For any given claim of appropriation, we don’t even know that it does harm , nor that me

Not correct. Wifi is not used to boost precision at speed. That is generally done via dead reckoning using the gyroscope and accelerometer. Wifi helps with bootstrapping a coarse location quickly before satellites can be acquired, and wit

My 2012 volvo has a reasonably large LCD that is used for the backup camera, and infotainment etc. However, I have it set to screen saver mode, and it is completely powered down until I put the car in reverse. It also wakes for certain thi

Did Xorg ever claim it was no longer being developed, or was that just something someone said in a blog post?

It’s not anywhere near that simple. A judge not letting one’s feelings influence their decisions can also be a matter of conscience, because they believe that justice should be equal for all. Conscientious people do generally go by the ‘boo

Why do you justify that conclusion? There is no reason Tesla couldn’t participate is such a subscription. The app is just because there is no card reader at the charger.

The idea that people need to treat financial transactions in crypto as if they were writing software for a moon mission shows how impractical the entire space is.

Agreed - it’s the active part that matters.

That might be a step further than is necessary. I don’t think you have to like yourself, and it’s much easier to like yourself if someone else likes you first. However, I do agree that you need to get past self-loathing to at least self-ac

Why can he expect his roommates to be easy to live with? That doesn’t follow. Also if you think he would have to shop around and change roommates often to find ones who are easy to live with, you are invalidating the point he was trying to

I would recommend using a different and more explicit phrasing in future. ‘Hoarders’ is a needlessly loaded term though. It sounds like you want to punish individuals using houses as investments. How would your scheme deal with larger mu

Right, and so existing owners will be driven out of their properties by a rent they cannot afford being imposed on them. Their wealth will be decimated for the reasons you have already stated, and of course new buyers will be purchasing an

It wouldn’t be great for him if he was easy to live with but his roommates were not.

That part is obvious, but it seems like it would only be clearly beneficial for menial or hourly labor. For work where decision making and creativity are important, you’d expect it to be counterproductive.

How is that good for the bottom line?

Having to both pay to purchase and pay rent makes housing more expensive as well as destroying the concept of home ownership altogether.

Or they are just less sophisticated and more obvious.
