- Comment on Tesla reintroduces 'Mad Max' Full Self-Driving mode that breaks speed limits 8 hours ago:
Maybe it has changed since the last time I tried on a rental (about a year ago), but it felt too gimmicky to be useful. It constantly wanted me to jerk the wheel, and would randomly turn itself off otherwise. Despite the fact I still had both my hands on the wheel, and the camera sensor should have noticed I was constantly looking at the road.
And then the few times it stayed active for a longer period, I was even more bored than usual with driving, and I didn’t feel much safer. Especially with country roads, it was constantly doing the speed limit instead of slightly slowing down in the few areas without fences (wildlife running into the road), and it was also happy to drive through a long and deep visible pool of water on the highway at like 110km/hr.
It’d be different if Tesla had LiDAR, but nah, it’s not for me. I’m glad you like it though.
- Comment on FCC could roll back rule requiring ISPs to list every fee, apparently, there are too many 1 week ago:
Why is it unreasonable to expect an advertised price to be accurate? If someone says your Internet will cost $30 a month, why should you accept paying anything more than that? A fair market helps increase competition, and is a good thing for all consumers.

- Comment on Big Brother just got an upgrade. Starting December, Amazon’s Ring cameras will scan and recognize faces. Don’t want to be in their database? Too bad — walk past a Ring and your face can be stored... 1 week ago:
idk how ring got passed that law to begin with in 99% of its use cases
It doesn’t comply… but the responsibility falls on the person who mounts/uses the hardware, so Amazon does whatever they want.

downloaded an ODT documenting
Doesn’t really matter what document format it is, I wouldn’t dare using OO anymore. Maybe they still patch critical CVEs, and maybe no one even attempts exploits because it’s basically just in maintenance mode, but you never know…
Change isn’t fun, but I don’t think that UI-wise Libreoffice is such a big leap?

I can’t even blame Tesla drivers for not blinking, it’s awfully designed… it’ll stay blinking for too long, then if you try to turn it off by putting it a bit in the opposite direction, now you’re blinking that way instead.

DSM
Miss me with that American junk. But with the same logic, would you also say that gender incongruence is a mental disorder? It’s in the same books, in similar sections. It’s faux pas to call something a mental disorder without focusing on why it’d be that.
The ICD (and I would hope the DSM) focuses mostly on the distress the patient gets from their condition. Someone’s attraction to kids, without any actions, isn’t enough to get diagnosed, as it’s simply a paraphilia. If they’re distressed by it, or act out, then it’s a diagnostic criteria and something they’d be able to get treatment for.

Nah, pedophilia is a paraphilia. And if someone suffers from pedophilic disorder, it’s kinda impossible for anyone other than healthcare to know that – unless they’ve made some attempts to abuse someone.
- Comment on Steam is cracking down on porn games, to keep Payment Processors happy. 2 months ago:
Even opposite-sex incest became legal in Sweden a couple years back. The law previously said “forbidden to have sexual intercourse with a sibling”, but they changed it to “forbidden to have vaginal intercourse with a sibling”. No idea if it was the (right-wing) government’s intention to legalize gay-brother-sex at the same time, but here we are.

- Comment on YSK how to unclog a toilet 4 months ago:
Hmm, that’s maybe also why American toilets get clogged all the time if they release the water so slowly? Mine empties the entire tank and stops filling the bowl after like a second or two, regardless if it got blocked or not. I can’t even reach any kind of “stopper” in the tank without opening the entire thing
