If only Washington Post or Los Angeles Times were allowed to put out their similar views.

It needs to be way way better than ‘better than average’ if it’s ever going to be accepted by regulators and the public. Without better sensors I don’t believe it will ever make it. Waymo had the right idea here if you ask me.

If anyone was somehow still thinking RoboTaxi is ever going to be a thing. Then no, it’s not, because of reasons like this.

Whether this joke makes sense depends on how you pronounce Nisan. Some places pronounce it ‘nee-san’ similar to ‘knees and’. Other places province it ‘ni-san’ with the ni as is nickel, and the joke doesn’t really work.

For now, Discord users in Türkiye face limited access to the platform, though it remains unclear whether a full ban will be implemented in the coming days.

Still working for me on hotel wifi.

Edit: it won’t launch on my laptop now. Stuck trying to update. Still works on my phone.

Only if they sit in the back and I drive.

. Proportionately, he uses 13 percent more all-or-nothing terms like “always” and “never” than he did eight years ago, which some experts consider a sign of advancing age.

If you ask me this is a sign of worsening mental health as much as it is just getting older.

Good. Dems should engage hostile media more, Pete Buttigieg gives masterclasses on how to do it. Not everyone can be that good but shining a light in the darkness is important. Ignoring it just lets it fester.

In the UK they’re called ‘idents’. You can find a huge collection of UK ones here https://theident.gallery/

My current bugbear with QR codes is that lots of folks have started putting their company logo in the middle of the code.

Sure it still works but it makes the error correction work harder so your users need to be nearer or have better cameras than they would otherwise. Annoying.

Yeah. The thing is that full retail price is hiked up, not the normal price. Side stepping the legislation designed to prevent this kind of behavior.

Not in every instance but for sure it does happen. Some of those ‘non member’ prices are so high as to be laughable.

Concepts of a deal

I wish someone would take a look at ‘Clubcard Prices’ and ‘Nectar Prices’ etc. Ie discounts if you have the loyalty card.

I’m sure they’re just a way to circumvent trading standards legislation about needing to have been on sale at the higher price before starting a sale. Because it’s not a sale is a ‘club price’. The store can show a massive discount when it was never on sale at the undiscounted price anyway.

Trump told Fox & Friends that he felt Harris was “awfully familiar” with the questions as he debated her.

It’s called preparation you bellend.

All hotels reserve the right to inspect your room whenever they need to. The privacy sign just means you don’t want room service, it’s not some magical lock.

They’d still knock, not just burst into your room to catch you in flagrante.

That said seeing the black hat conference in this way is daft.

Not entirely unlike Jill Biden telling Joe he’d done a good job, when clearly the opposite had happened.

I hope Harris doesn’t over prepare, she does need to maintain a certain level of off the cuff affability.

Over preparation was Biden’s fatal error, he was struggling so hard to hit his talking points he couldn’t keep things straight. Obviously things are vastly different with Harris, but she’d be best to not just be a talking point machine.

Was it left outside in the rain?

I’m sure I’ll never need all 4 of the SCART cables I have, but then maybe I will so I’ll hang onto them just in case.
