  So the way I understand this to work, it’s 100% safe from the type of attack you’re describing.

  You are clicking the link (asking the advertiser for the data) but then never actually fetching it.

  So you can never get the malicious payload to be infected.

  40k? In USD or in Warhammer? Cause that’s a shite ton of money for college.

  Also, I am great full to live in a shit hole country right now given that bill

  Like, have him actually read? My man, I don’t think he can.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elon Musk May Have Made a Huge Mistake on Full Self-Driving That It's Too Late to Correct.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is one of the comments that Elon Musk uses a lot when he says humans drive with their eyes, but its untrue. We actually have a wide array of sensory systems that help us drive. Firstly, we use our ears, eyes and body motion to drive. Secondly, unlike a fixed camera mounted on a car, our heads are in constant motion. This means that we cover blind spots better than a fixed camera, and we are able to determine if it’s a small deer really close by, and a large deer really far away. Our brains take multiple 3d images and stitch them together to determine size, distance and speed.

  The best way to explain the driving using your eyes fallacy is basically to look at fpv RC cars, and see how much sensory information you have been robbed of while trying to pilot the vehicle
