Feels like they should be able to view the software and hardware controlling the odometer, and if it’s doing anything suspicious.

I wonder if they’ll actually do anything if they find Tesla is doing fraud. Feel like everyone who OK’d the decision should be barred from working in the industry for life, and made to forfeit everything they gained while doing the fraud.

While I’m making magical wishes, I’d also like Musk and all of his followers to choke to death.

dear saint luigi: please please please end musk. and as many of his acolytes as possible.

I always thought it was asking if the machine was rigged to give fixed answers regardless of the input. Like, you call it an addition function but it secretly always returns 15. If you call my_add(5, 10) it spits out the correct 15. If you call my_add(9, 9) it spits out the “correct” answer of 15.

I was hoping you had some insight and revelations about how to use Finder.

If the non-ramirez entity has any sort of offensive powers, trying to kill or restrain it might yield a worse outcome. Like, you try to tie up the one inside and it decides the cat is out of the bag, so it bursts out of its skin suit and strangles you.

I also get mad at people who drive cars instead of walking or taking mass transit, if that helps.

But someone smoking near you makes your day undeniably, immediately, worse.

If you’re sitting in a room that smells uncomfortably of cheese, and someone rips a juicy fart on your face, it would be unreasonable to be like “who cares about my shart it smells like cheese in here”

People are emotional. They feel things, and then make up justifications for it afterwards. We all do this to some extent, in some contexts or others, but some people seem to do it the majority of the time.

Someone who smokes and has a choice between admitting they fucked up, they’re hurting themselves and those around them, OR denying it so they’re just a persecuted innocent? A lot of people will go for the latter. It’s weakness and cowardice, but saying that won’t change their mind. If results are wanted we have to do the very arduous task of massaging their emotions and I kind of resent that thankless, endless, work. Even though I almost certainly am the same way about other things.

Humans are a mess.

Please. Elaborate.

People that work at microsoft could stop this. With means gentler than “Crack open the CEO’s skull with a hammer”, too.

Zuckerberg put in his will “Anyone who kills me gets a billion dollars”. Bold move, but apparently legal!

If those two shitheads said we should drink more water I’d check with other sources first.

Fuck them. I hope they both die for what they’ve done

Everyone involved in this decision should be shot.

What happened to all the republicans crying about “government shouldn’t be picking winners and losers”? Oh right, they’re hypocritical little shits that should be in the ground.

So tired of everything trash because like a third of the country has less emotional maturity than a toddler.

That’s a good post. No disagreements, really.

I want a succinct word to encapsulate this behavior. It’s like a child that eats a whole tub of ice cream against your advice, and then gets mad at you that they feel sick. “Stupid” is a word that would come to mind, but I think better can be done. Something with “Solipsism” maybe?

It’s also frustrating when you catch them red-handed adopting a position they recently held the opposite stance on. I’m just like, why don’t you care about the hypocrisy?

Right?? I’m like, didn’t you learn anything in high school history? But then I know that conservatives have been attacking education for decades, and a lot of people just kind of slept through school.

I would argue that this behavior you are describing is a kind of stupid. It is self destructive in the long term, and certainly not intellectually rigorous.

Republicans have long done things that are contrary to their stated goals. They want nuclear families with a stay at home mom, but they don’t want to pay people enough to do that.

They don’t want abortions but they don’t want to have education and contraception.

Conservatives are stupid or lying

Another reason “I’m a rugged individual don’t tell me what to do” people are absolute fools.

Benefitting from untold quantities of rules and regulations, thinking it’s all their personal merit, wanting to swing an axe at the branch they’re sitting on.

I’ve had people tell me that “the market” would solve the problem is people were selling tainted food. idiots.

Sidebar defaults are bad. There’s no home directory. How do you get to your home directory? Cmd+shift+H, but can you get there without that special shortcut? You can’t see the file system’s structure in Finder. The GUI doesn’t have a way to go “up” in the directory structure. I don’t think you can do it in the GUI alone.

It won’t let you see stuff in like \tmp\ without a fight, too. I don’t know how to open stuff in places like that without cd’ing to the location in the terminal, and doing open . in the desired directory.

The list view is the least bad, but it gets unwieldy if your directories are deeply nested. It’s also bad if you started in the middle of the tree and want to go up. Gallery and column view are really bad for anything non trivial.

I often want to see the entire file path, and it really doesn’t want to cooperate. If I do find the file I’m looking for, and want the full path, it doesn’t want to give it. I don’t even know if there is a way to get it. Other than like cmd+clicking -> “new iterm2 tab here” -> pwd, which is not really that helpful of Finder.

Contrast with windows’ default explorer. It’s not perfect and I think windows11 made it worse, but still. Open it up, there’s the “my pc”, click through to my user directory, music, some album, then i can click the top thing and get the path. I can also see the whole tree on the left.

Whatever I was using in Mint was similar to windows’ Explorer. Had no complaints about it.

I guess most everyone else that works at microsoft is cool with this.

Saint Luigi guide us.

What. What?? Finder is the fucking worst. It doesn’t have a sensible tree view, does it?
