Hey, I could at least observe superconductors at home!

Same way ofcom expects anyone outside UK to pay up, I guess.

Oh yes, because it’s not like Nigel Farage, Victor Orban and a bunch of other populists didn’t make use of US companies and advisors (and russian funds…) on how to best fracture societies to their end. Clearly nuking the internet would put an end to that, and all would be well.

Unironically yes. Otherwise the internet as we know it is very much over, and what we have instead is a mesh of country-nets.

I mean, what is actually “doing business” when it comes a simple web page or a forum for example? Merely existing and being reachable.

If you’re ok with this then imagine your local lemmy instance getting fined by China/Qatar/Thailand/etc for posting something breaking their laws.

Good.

This level of pettiness could be amusing if it wasn’t in control of the world’s largest army and nuclear arsenal.

Edit: and not actively trying to murder people, now that I think about it.

Use the client to sync all your files to disk instead of the website.

Well yeah, that is true. Security and convenience are usually at odds… MFA has place, unless you don’t mind some guy from russia access your online bank account ; but I definitely wouldn’t use it on all my accounts.

That’s between platforms though. I like my stuff self-managed. Unless it provenly works with full offline solutions I’ll remain sceptical.

If the passkeys aren’t managed by your devices fully offline then you’re just deeper into being hostage to a corporation.

Soon smartglasses will look like regular glasses though. Miniaturisation isn’t about to stop.

Ehhh I’m not sure how I got skimmed. Better safe than sorry now, a deleted card is pretty foolproof

I can create a virtual card before every trip, use it via my phone and then cancel it after the trip, never worrying if my card got skimmed anywhere for one.

Most such attempts fail when not enough people subscribe to paying tiers. Good luck to them nevertheless, I hope they succeed.

Somewhat ironically, autopilot for airplanes is more less attitude/speed holding for most history. More modern systems can now autoland or follow a preprogrammed route (the flight plan plugged into the FMS), but even then changes like TCAS advisories are usually left up to the pilots to handle. Autopilots are also expected to give control to the pilots in any kind of unexpected situation.

So in a way tesla’s naming here isn’t so off, it’s just the generic understanding of the term “autopilot” that is off somewhat. That said, their system is also not doing much more than most other level 2 ADAS systems offer.

On the other hand, Elon loves going off about Full Self Driving mode a lot, and that’s absolutely bullshit.

Sure, PFAS were also considered a nonsignificant issue until they weren’t, only it’s too late to unfuck it now. Well, no harm in generating more potential ticking time bombs I guess.

Ah yes, the usual method of waiting until the issue becomes confirmed and also way too severe to fix instead of acting on precaution and harming profits of private companies. What could go wrong?

Going publicly traded fucks every company up with nextquarter-itis.

Try using a custom ROM on Android and you’ll quickly see.
