It’s one of those robots that’s just remote controlled by some guy in a call center.

Hotels have always been better in my experience.

Unless you want something like a fishing cabin on a river, but even then I’ve started to look at resorts because after all the fees, they work out to the same price as an airBNB.

Im personally looking forward to Edison EV conversions.

The ability to take a vehicle I already have and turn it into an EV or hybrid would be amazing.

I know they’re a while from full production, but I see that as a win. So many of these EVs are having quality issues because they’re being shit out onto the market as fast as humanly possible. I’d rather a company actually take the time to do R&D, test things thoroughly, and then release a product.

It’s not like the US auto industry is a key sector of the economy or anything.

That’s why it was so silly that Obama bailed them out, right? They’re only like 5% of the GDP. 5% is a little baby number.

God this country is power sliding into an another Great Recession. What do these idiots think they’re gonna do when a good chunk of the population loses their homes and comfortable lives because of them? A population with nothing to lose, lots of guns floating around, and no prospects for improvement under the current administration should be a very scary future for any leader.

I’d ask if they remember the French Revolution, but these fuckers seem to want to go back to a time before that.

The NHTSA doesn’t actually certify anything.

They write the standards that vehicles and products must follow, but it’s up to the manufacturers to certify themselves as being compliant.

This explains how the cyber trucks, with no third party testing, are considered road legal in the US and basically no other country.

So Elon is not firing regulators that will deny his cars a certification, he’s firing regulators that decide what the requirements will be.

Thats so much worse.

Source for anyone interested. It’s a reply to a man wanting to import air bags, but the letter does give a nice overview of the laws.

Tape is also difficult to steal. The machines to read the tapes are expensive and uncommon, a tape reading machine requires no internet connection, meaning it can’t be subject to man-in-the-middle attacks, and the physical storage devices can be secured and guarded when not in use.

This fucking idiot is gonna lose the plans for our nukes, isn’t he. Just like when he disabled half of twitter because he physically yanked a server rack out of the building without knowing what it did.

Yeah but that dude died and came back so many times he barely knows what his name is or what dimension he’s in.

He’s just tub thumping through the universe, like a cooler Indiana jones.

Yes, but what this movie failed to anticipate was the visceral anger I feel when I hear that stupid AI generated voice. I’ve seen too many fake videos or straight up scams using it that I now instinctively mistrust any voice that sounds like male or femaleAI.wav.

Could never fall in love with AI voice, would always assume it was sent to steal my data so some kid can steal my identify.

That is also what this article says.

Although a single bolt is going to need to be quite strong to hold down a long piece of steel exposed to high speed wind regularly.
