Is there a difference between being harassed with deepfakes vs fakes?

Photoshop has the power to cause distress too when used maliciously.

You go after the aggressors, not the tool used for aggression.

And yet you're sure as to why you need to rectify my clarification?

Is there some reason you don't understand the negatives of an overloaded term?

Yes, if you're used to "recalls" that happen automatically this is not one of those.

I stand corrected. Glad they stopped using them.

I'm simply saying don't expect this to be rolled back in software.

It's a PHYSICAL recall. Normally the articles cover that important detail up, so all you see is recall.

Yes I'm pointing out the difference that their legal term overlooks because it's overloaded.

Illegal alien is also a legal term that sometimes requires distinction.

I'm not talking about pedestrian detection, I'm talking about active avoidance of oncoming vehicles.

But if the positives of any safety system don't count, then the negatives don't count against Tesla.

Because all cars have safety systems that could kill or save you under that logic.

Are those 35 counting the people who were asleep, trying to kill themselves, etc?

Because if they are from the same news outlets as reports the other Tesla crashes, those are not always due to Tesla issues, and it always comes out they weren't because they have data on everything.

And other cars catch on fire in crashes and people burn to death in ICE cars. Fires are not exclusive to EVs. Shrapnel airbags on the other hand...

Plus I've seen at least 5+ videos where the safety features in a Tesla reacted faster than the driver and saved them, do we count that as a negative death?

What's not to understand? Physical recall. Killer airbag. Turn it in.

It simply means, your car will not roll this feature back itself because it's not a software recall. Go turn it in.

Turns out it's confusing to overload the term "recall", and downright dangerous when it comes to overloading safety terms.

We're always going on about how misleading AutoPilot is as a term to the hypothetically confused consumer. But overloading recall isn't confusing?

I cannot help that the government for some reason chose to overload this term.

Yes 24 people that had to die for no reason, but yeah it's low for the massive fuck up that this was.

I don't really know what the point of that statement is though. Reads like part of a Boeing spokesman's speech.

Not really, Teslas are quite safe and don't have the killer Takata airbags like the many other car brands.

But yeah that facetiousness is why I said the statement above.

It's really easy to lookup Tesla safety ratings so I won't get dragged into what you're trying to do.

These are real recalls btw, for a safety feature that kills you. (airbag frag grenades)

I know some people have been conditioned that software rollbacks are recalls due to all the anti-Tesla articles.

Most likely because it wasn't polished, so get it out now in a polished and limited state and now you have a fancy update to tout when it is done.

I understand, could you please check it and report what you find?

But as I understand you, it's left to the moderator's discretion to unflag topics.

Is there a checklist / criteria of judging whether the users can have a "reflective" or "reflexive" political discussion?

Would 9/11 not be covered because it would be too "reflexive"?

Why was this discussion of this "genocide" viewed as not too "reflexive"?

You have to see how it looks very one-sided. It would be nice for political discussion topic allowance details to be explained.

Currently it leaves a lot of assumptions as you point out.

I was specifically asking about Oct 7th coverage and the coverage this event.

While I don't agree with your recount of history, it's off-topic to my question to @dang

In fact, the presence and tone of comments like yours vs the lacking and flagging of pro-Israel gets exactly to the root of my question.

Is there a reason why Oct 7th (the massacre that started this escalation) was not discussed?

Seems more like, we would like to increase investment on the condition that you use it more for X (???) and less for Y (people).

Oh and all you companies do this all at the same time so no one loses stock value, kthxbye.

No, it's a facetious response to those who want to experiment with billions of people's lives to replace capitalism which has brought so many people out of poverty and hunger with an unstated system that will most likely resemble communism which will again starve hundreds of millions as it has countless of times.

People can and do operate a commune within a capitalistic society. Go in with other people and buy some land to live off, make a contract to share all property. You can't do the inverse in a communistic society.

But no, we all have to do it or it won't work, because apparently it's only possible at scale and it can't be explained until then. Convenient.

So don't act like you can't go live life in a commune today, you can, just people don't, because capitalistic life is more comfortable.

They'd rather complain online about other people's lives, using their iPhone, drinking Starbucks, thinking about how know best for all more than the great minds that created the society they take for granted.

I care about open source as a developer.

As a user I want the most polished program available and am not against using closed source if it meets my needs as is and I don't need to modify it beyond it's supported options.

none of these work in my area, mockingbirds confuse the hell out of it haha

they register through like 10-15 calls, a lot of birds not even from the region, they get around!

It connects to the hub but you have bluetooth repeaters to extend it.

True, devices don't directly connect to each other, so I guess not mesh.

But for all intents and purposes the bluetooth instead of wifi is all I care about, not how it's implemented, as long as it's reliable.

Homekit uses bluetooth mesh.

It's the main reason I chose it, no wifi for anything.

a centralized source of truth is a pretty successful approach to distributed systems?

seems more like a successful escape hatch. yes it's simpler, but it's antithetical to the goal.

centralizing would be using HTMX and authoritative servers.

local-first is more decentralized as your clients can sync directly with each other (or through a dumb proxy for NAT punching)

I see no need for servers to be anything but dumb proxies for clients. Not the opposite of making clients dumb terminals.

There's just little benefit in HTMX unless you have a live financial dashboard or something like that.

I find the opposite approach of local-first (database in the client).

It fits more solutions and solves many more things (free offline, syncing, undo support) and getting rid of caching, retries, and latency.

Of course the industry wants you to want more on the server though.

Same view applies to RSC (react server components).

Embrace CRDTs.

I saw the twitter post of what they're talking about.

It was just the way the car hit it I guess, CT was basically untouched, everyone was fine, but it was high enough speed to total the other car.

It's not really an indicator of anything, just an interesting happenstance.

CT didn't crumple because it wasn't hit where it needed to crumple.

Yes, and talks between air traffic control and pilots are recorded.

Would you be okay with a recorder being beside your desk at all times? Catching every conversation, even personal ones?

Currently it's your choice to participate in sending memes over email. You also have the choice to walk over and have a private conversation.

I have a young family. My great grandmother was alive until about my highschool graduation.

People got married and had kids (age 15 for my grandma) early back in the day, not too odd.

I mean, there's no reason a Starship can't be turned into a space telescope, and it's pretty much an assembly line rocket.

Also no reason why it can't be an ISS, and no reason you couldn't link multiple together.

Pretty useful to have a reusable grain silo you can launch and land.
