I fucking hate autocorrect. I mean to say “its” a lot more often than I mean to say “it’s”, but Gboard on my phone tries to change it to the latter almost every time.

I say “almost” because it did it the first time in the above sentence, but not the second time, so it managed to make the wrong guess for both of them. Goddamn useless trash – Markov can suck it!

Good ol’ #37.

I feel like this regime might be evil enough to get Joker to quit paying his taxes.

I mean, maybe, but previously when I’ve said that it’s typically gone over like a lead balloon. Even in tech forums, a lot of people have drunk the kool-aid that it’s somehow suddenly too dangerous to allow owners to control their property just because software is involved.

Thanks!

Maybe, if that two-step determination of liability is really what the parent commenter had in mind.

I’m not so sure he’d agree with my proposed way of resolving the dispute over liability, which would be to legally require that all self-driving systems (and software running on the car in general) be forced to be Free Software and put it squarely and completely within the control of the vehicle owner.

I can’t wait until Trump pisses off the world enough that they fight back and he is eventually tried for his crimes against humanity. I can’t wait to shit on your grave you evil fuck.

This savior fantasy isn’t going to come true. If you want it to happen, you’re gonna have to do it yourself.

Username checks out

Because I do journalism, and sometimes I even do good journalism!

In that case, you wouldn’t happen to know whether or not Teslas are unusually dangerous to bicycles too, would you?

0. A legal system exists in which the people who build, sell and drive cars are not meaningfully liable when the car hurts somebody

That’s a good thing, because the alternative would be flipping the notion of property rights on its head. Making the owner not responsible for his property would be used to justify stripping him of his right to modify it.

You’re absolutely right about point -1 though.

That would be punishing yourself compared to switching to Jellyfin, though.

Buying just slightly below highest end (so 5700X3D/3080) is the best bang-for-the-buck of all, IMO.

I just upgraded my seven-year-old 1700X/Vega 56 system to 5700X3D/9070 XT, and I expect it to be good for probably another seven years at least, give or take failure of the original motherboard I’m still using.

I like interacting with actual YouTube because it keeps track of my subscriptions and watch history across my devices. (It’s not that I want Google to know my habits; it’s that I don’t want videos I already watched coming up in my feed.)

If one of these YouTube alternative front ends would solve for that use-case without too much faff and hassle, I’d happily switch.

Friend/coworker recently told me that i don’t have a ‘game face.’ Now I’m self conscious that everyone knows what I’m really thinking.

You’re confusing it with “poker face.” “Game face” is when you try to look determined in order to intimidate the other team.

Hope that helps!

She’s still alive, which means the Nobel Committee can and should fix this injustice. We just need to make them do it.

You might be surprised at how well some of us leftie techies can code switch.

.World not being hosted in the US is news to me (as an American member of it, no less). It’s definitely welcome news, though!

I gave your comment its second upvote.
