It works well, until it doesn't. That first part lulls people into complacency. I rented a Kia last year that had automatic cruise control and lane keep assist and it kept me on the road far past when I should have pulled over and taken a nap from being sleep deprived after a redeye flight. Dangerous? Yes. Skill issue? Maybe. What I took away from the experience is that it is frighteningly easy to get used to a thing "just working" and forget about its limitations when it is convenient. I also learned that I do not want lane keep assist or automatic cruise control in my personal car.

They turn into a soup-like homogenate. As is natural in the life cycle of a lab mouse.

And if they weren't euthanized they would almost certainly die of horrible horrible cancerous tumors. Not because of anything the labs do, but because it's a crime against nature for a mouse to live past maybe 2 years.

Could you elaborate wrt Fedora being a shitshow? It's my daily driver and I haven't experienced any kind of instability and (to my knowledge) I have not been compromised.

HSPA+ is not 4G. It has a max theoretical throughput of 168Mbit. It was sold as 4G. Same with Wimax and earlier LTE implementations.

mistakes like selling the evolutionary upgrade of the previous generation as the revolutionary next generation? That kind of mistake?

Never forget that the original 4G spec promised gigabit.

I wonder why that might be.

I've never bought (and probably will never buy) anything from Temu because they sell a lot of cheap crap, but I've gotta say I find their business model fascinating.
