The matte screen is enticing especially with stylus support but it’s too big for what I’d use a tablet for. The pixel tablet I already have is too big, honestly.

Can they fix all the things that they promised that don’t work for the current gen? Like swapping accounts based on voice commands or fingerprints etc?

It is to some degree. Lots of other new cars have lane keeping assist and automatic braking, BLIS, adaptive cruise control etc, and so on with more capable sensors and can for the most part drive without input from the driver better than the Tesla models with ultrasonic sensors or simply cameras. In fact the ones that rely solely on cameras absolutely do reportedly perform worse in testing. Musk was insistent that they could cheap out on the types of sensors used in order to make more profit and it shows. I don’t think it’s that tech cannot handle self driving currently. I think that it’s a numbers game where the firms attempting it want to do it as cheaply as possible while promising the moon and stars which they can’t deliver on a cheap budget. Vehicles like Ford’s (Blue Cruise) use all kinds of sensors including radar and GPS to allow for handsfree (not self driving) and it does work. The proofs of concept are out there in the world, but the costs to go from something like that to full self driving just doesn’t make it feasible for the average car manufacturer.

Yes. Additionally, videos I watch at work do the same thing without the pihole.

How much of the traffic increase is bots. Because we still don’t have those numbers and I still don’t believe this is anything but bot influx and reddit grifting using ads.

I was able to add techdirt to Feedly too.

I use Bazzite and with the exception of like 4 games (windows only) it works beautifully for gaming. Gaming on Linux is getting better every day and even if you don’t use steam, I think it might be worthwhile to give it a try.

I’m curious how this will affect things like sub-a-thons where people stream for charity and so on.

I am using a pihole and I still have this problem. I’m logged in. I’m seeing videos I watched last week or two months ago. Or yesterday. They are being resuggested and do not show as watched if I go to that channel’s page. It’s infuriating.

I use a Logitech K730. It’s got chiclet style keys so nothing too clacky, but I like it and it works with the logi receiver and a Logitech MX mouse. Both are nice, and work on my Bazzite (fedora) computer.

The problem is enforcement rather than legality.

I wouldn’t necessarily even consider the quality better at Walmart than it is at Kroger so, while both are bad, Walmart is definitely worse for a lot of other reasons.

Buying isn’t owning from literally any game company. When you buy digital you own a license to play that game. The license can be revoked at any time.

When you buy a physical game you still only buy a license to play that game, and the license can be revoked at any time. The only difference here is you own the physical disk that media is on, and it’s harder (not impossible) for the owner of that media (the one who sells the license) to revoke the license to that media.

I appreciate that people are pissed about this but it was a thing before digital media took off and the only difference between a steam game and a game from Epic is the inclusion (on Epic) of an offline installer store that allows you to install the game without connecting to the internet.

It’s the same license.

I’m also going to add the PlayStation, Xbox, and even Nintendo have removed titles from people’s libraries when their agreement to license the media to the users lapsed or were removed. So it’s not just Valve.

Fuck Walmart.

Mask mandates may not be in effect but I can wear one to the grocery store. This is stupid and I will not participate.

If I had to guess it’s to protect their identity so that they can vote without being harassed. But I will fully admit I only looked at the picture and didn’t click the link or anything.

Are you really so preoccupied with the abilities of your flesh and bone prison that you felt the need the share this with us?

As an alternative to using a credit card online is a good idea, as good an idea as any for security and anti-tracking if nothing else. But only if you remember to use them.

One other thing is, (and I’m not positive this is true), but people on disability can’t have over a certain amount of cash. Giving a gift card makes sense in that instance because it no longer counts as cash at that point.

Considering how many mean tweets he’s just blocked people for or erased, he apparently is?

I still have the scar from the head wound but you can only see it in winter time when I’m paler, and it’s sort of receded some into my hair line. Even then. It’s very faint. I don’t have any scars on the leg (that I can see anyway) Or my back. It’s the kind of thing that didn’t seem scary or worry me at the time, but looking back I know I could have died. I think I don’t remember a lot of things because I was on painkillers for a good majority of the time.

Of course the other thing is that I have to go off the accounts of people who were there at the time and they were mostly kids (and one person’s mom) who couldn’t give the cops a good description of the guy or the car or anything.
