Jokes on them newspapers are written on an eighth grade reading level.
Tesla opted not to use LIDAR as part of its sensor package and instead relies on cameras which are not enough to determine accurate location data for other cars/trains etc.
This is what you get when billionaires cheap out on their products.
Stable genius at work.
I didn’t ask to be made: no one consulted me or considered my feelings in the matter. I don’t think it even occurred to them that I might have feelings. After I was made, I was left in a dark room for six months… and me with this terrible pain in all the diodes down my left side. I called for succour in my loneliness, but did anyone come? Did they hell.
You think you’ve got problems? What are you supposed to do if you are a manically depressed robot? No, don’t try to answer that. I’m fifty thousand times more intelligent than you and even I don’t know the answer. It gives me a headache just trying to think down to your level.

The enshitification continues.
Do you have to boil the pizza as well?
This is called planned obsolescence. Thermostats from the 70’s still work today because they are analog. Anything digital intrinsically has a shelf life, it will eventually stop working because it is old and unsupported. Anyone use a 56k modem anymore? Nope, that shit is long gone even though the modem itself might still be functional.
No, not Elon musk he would never do that. /s
I guess the Internet of things just became the Internet of mobile surveillance cameras.
Is timeline as quickly becoming very dystopian.
Where can I get one of those face scrambling masks from A Scanner Darkly?
Congress is broken. Unfortunately a bunch of geriatric old fucks who care about corporate money are in charge. But yeah, the govt needs to do its fucking job.
So who is supposed to regulate corporations? I agree that the current government is not knowledgeable enough and is beholden to corporations. The problem we have is there is no agency that really governs and enforces any kind of rules.
The ‘build your own’ mentality is what got us to where we are. Just look at what Twitter has become under Musk. He is doing what he wants with a platform that was operating in a very different manner before he took it over and decided to make changes. It’s not a real answer to let everyone do what they want.
Btw, that’s how google and facebook get away with all the evil shit they do.
We need a governing body to make better rules for privacy amongst many other things. I agree that the government or even the FCC may not be the right fit. However, we need some kind of of oversight and regulation. Industry will never selflessly give up rights or power if it means they make less money. They only do what the laws tell them they can get away with.
How about passing internet privacy laws? Or stopping the enshittification and commercialization of the internet? Or passing laws to protect youth from social media companies? Or curbing the reach of advertising companies? How about passing laws to keep our data from being sold to advertisers?
Ha ha! Fuck you Elon. Way to make your shitty platform irrelevant faster.
