People who get red coupes are more likely to be the kind of people who are more likely to end up making insurance claims or, as you mentioned, get tickets. If you get a red coupe, you enter the same group with those people and your premium goes up.

So it’s not the car or its color, it’s the people who tend to buy it.

By default yes. All it takes is one obd2 connector and a little know how to disable that safety on many modern cars.

No, Blade Runner. It’s quite obvious that they didn’t bother to talk to a single actual replicant hunter when writing that script.

I wonder… did he ride an obnoxiously loud horse? Was his gambeson adorned with the stylized emblems of various troubadours and/or bandit gangs? Did he run a shady laudanum business from the back office of the local inn?

Well Tesla tried to fix that by making it a yoke instead of a wheel so your hands would never leave their designated positions. And then they went and fucked that up by making it a fixed steering ratio like a regular wheel, which defeated the entire purpose of a yoke. Then they just ditched the yoke entirely instead of developing a variable ratio steering mechanism for it, and that was it for the yoke. Oh also they went back on their bold and courageous and revolutionary and innovative move of removing the steering stalk in favor of shitty capacitive buttons on the wheel, because everyone hated that too. Very brave.

Never seen it. Is it good? Where is it streaming?

So many of those are also fiction. There was a post somewhere, where the op had compiled a list of top relationshipadvice posts that were highly suspicious at the very least up if you went into their posters’ histories. People were eating them up.

That sub became mostly a creative writing gym a long time ago.

Very different vegetables though. It’d be like comparing wine and beer.

I mean I am pretty happy with my nothing phone. It came with a pretty minimal stock android that runs on hardware that’s quite good for what I paid. Despite the shitty name that people have indeed made fun of, the phone’s been pretty good so far.

These things are very heavily optimized for the singular purpose of reading books. They can’t do much of anything else, but they do that one thing very well and very efficiently. They run a custom, lightweight Linux OS that’s very aggressive with its battery management. Coupled with an e-ink display, they sip power and can run for weeks on a single charge. That’s not something a simple android can provide.

I once read a review of a sous vide machine that just would not work unless it was connected to a smartphone via an app. And then that app would not work properly without a connection to some backend. That backend died at some point, bricking the sous vide machine. What a wonderful world we live in.

I doubt it but it does look like it went through some heavy handed filter or even some upscaling.

Hell of a way to total a car though.

Absolutely not. Nvidia GPUs and some network cards can and will break sleep on Linux. It’s currently very much broken on my machine and I stopped trying to fix it. Up until a few days ago the PC failed to properly power down to a sleep state and would leave a whole bunch of things powered up, like the monitor and the fans and the lights. Now it’s even worse. On top of all that, the computer goes right back into sleep seconds after it wakes up. Extremely annoying.

I use arch btw.

That was said by one random, rather insignificant Microsoft employee who had no capacity to make such a claim. Not in a position to even have that kind of information on the company’s future plans.

And even if they did have the capacity, if you actually go look at what really was said, it’s reasonably clear that they wanted to say latest version but fucked up the sentence. I hate defending Microsoft but that thing has become a meme at this point.

European countries have done the same for a long time though. Your Schengen visa application can easily be declined if you do not show that you have accomodations and a return ticket already taken care of. It’s not a strict automatic rejection afaik, but it’s most definitely not unheard of. It’s also common for the border police to ask to see your return tickets, depending on your… appearance.

For your next assignment, try to get them to draw images of analog watches that show something other than 10:10.

I very much doubt there’s any sort of workable data connection between the CAN bus and those sockets. The mechanism that lets the driver switch them on or off at will doesn’t necessarily have to connect those things to anything but a power rail.

In my company we have a very modern agile workflow where QA is top priority.

At least that what we advertise. In reality it’s all an unorganized clusterfuck where I’m pretty sure I am the only one who bothers to write automated tests. Who’s got time to write tests bro just push that shit out ASAP we’ll deal with it when the client calls us in the middle of the night to complain about previously-working shit being broken now.
