Not to mention that someone’s going to come out with a jailbreak option for every 3D printer within a couple of weeks of this being implemented at a manufacturing scale.

You mean ever since he sold out and took Saudi blood money?

Ironic that the first generation in 100 years not to grow up inhaling fucktons of lead with every breath are making more informed decisions concerning their reproductive health.

I love when people use these tame little examples of sinful fetishes when there is an entire galaxy of god-awful things people get off to in this world. I think Jesus let himself be taken out cause there’s not enough eye bleach in the universe…

Yeah if you’re going to go hard on protesting, you should probably not be using an iPhone. Literally the least secure phone in the entire universe.

The fog was not the point.

Okay here’s a situation. You’re on a road and it’s gotten foggy and the roads are a bit slick because of the fog. All of a sudden the comfortable 68° temperature you have the cabin set to is causing your windshield to fog up. On a car with buttons and knobs you can just reach over grab it twist a knob or press a button and change the setting. However, with touch screen menus you have to actually turn to look at the screen, taking your eyes off the road in unsafe weather, to find the setting to switch it to defog. That’s just one scenario there are at least a dozen others. Not to mention what would happen when it’s snowing out and you have to take your eyes off the road to search a touch screen for the right setting on anything. Radio, brights, 4 wheel drive, etc etc etc…

Tesla sales were driven by an $8,000 tax credit that doesn’t exist anymore. That company is sinking faster than the Titanic now that the tax credit has disappeared.

Touchscreens are cheaper to install than tactile buttons. That’s the draw for carmakers.

A few, like Tesla, have successfully made cars that act and feel like consumer devices—vehicles with lots of tech features, **** and a steady stream of meaningful software updates. Most are playing catch-up.

“smooth digital interfaces”

Nobody actually fucking wants this!

It doesn’t have to be a “dumb” car. Just don’t route everything through a stupid touchpad. I know it costs more to install buttons but I don’t want to have to hunt and peck through dropdown menus to turn on the radio or air conditioning. And I definitely don’t want a subscription service, that will be canceled eventually, to access remote start.

I have it piping audio to three different devices at the same time. And believe it or not they’re all in sync… most of the time.

Considering the fact that AI based age verification now usually involves taking a head shot and uploading it to the servers of the company, I’m guessing there is an element of facial data collection involved as well.

Never before have I seen a more perfect representation of how I feel about people who attribute ancient artifact and builds to aliens simply because they can’t figure out how humans were able to do said things.

Keep it as a private school. Let the rich kids become dumber.

I better question in terms of the teeth of the laws is, are there any real consequences to an operating system provider just ignoring them and not providing any kind of age verification in their software whatsoever?

The question I assume will get answered soon enough by GrapheneOS since they have told everyone asking for OS age verification to go pound sand.

Didn’t they shitcan the age verification thing in systemd and they fire the guy who put it in? Or was that just a joke post?

He didn’t go MAGA, he always was. Same for Sorbo and same for Jim Caviezel.

It is past tense. They are currently owned by Lenovo, which is a Chinese company.

In 2012, Google acquired Motorola Mobility for $12.5 billion, with the intention of using the company’s patents to bolster its Android operating system. However, Google’s ownership of Motorola Mobility was short-lived. In 2014, the search giant sold the company to Lenovo for $2.91 billion.

There is a galaxy of difference between a kid who thinks they can get away with being a brat with no consequences and a kid who has the level of emotional problems that can lead to self harm. Not to mention the difference between a parent who is just teaching their kid that there are consequences to their actions vs a parent who simply doesn’t care about whether or not they are harming their kid with excessive punitive actions.
