Especially when people fuck with the ride height on their trucks. They almost always end up with the front higher than the back, relative to it's stock setting. Then don't bother to adjust the head light angle to compensate.

Then, on I need a massive light bar on the top of my truck. Never mind that I never take this thing off road or do any work with it. It looks cool and it's bright and shiny.

Fuck off. Can we just tax these things properly and not v give them a lower tax rate since their classed as commercial vehicles. No one buying these massive boats uses them for more than going to home Depot once a year to buy some leaf bags.

Translation: all the times Tesla has vowed that all of its vehicles would soon be capable of fully driving themselves may have been a convenient act of salesmanship that ultimately turned out not to be true."

There's a word for that already. Lied. They/He lied.

No need for 30 words when 2 will do.

They Lied.

I will not stand for this! Rankine will be the standard! It will confuse and infuriate everyone equally. Truly the fairest of outcomes.

Maybe I'm missing something, but my read is that it creates a mechanism/standard for labeling content. If content is labeled under this standard, it is illegal to remove the labeling or use it in a way the labeling prohibits. But I don't see a requirement to label content with this mechanism.

If that's the case I don't see a problem. Now, if all the content is required to be labeled, then yes it's a privacy nightmare. But my interpretation was that this is a mechanism to prevent AI companies from gobbling up content without consent and saying, "What? There's nothing saying I couldn't use it."

I feel like this could be used to describe any tech company that "innovates" or "disrupts" an area.

Not sure what it says about me that I immediately knew who she was/is

Por que no los dos?

Honestly, Inquisition is the low point in the series to me. If it can't clear that bar then Bioware may be toast. I've replayed Origins countless times and it's truly a great game. DA2 isn't a perfect game, and certainly shows signs of EA's influence degrading the product, but I have replayed of numerous and still find it a fun experience.

Inquisition, I think I've only completed it twice, at most. But replays always seem to stall out for me. I don't find the characters as engaging and the "open world" elements feel like something to be overcome rather than something I want to dive into and explore.

Honestly, I'd rather they go smaller and focus on well designed areas/missions/quests with fun and engaging characters. I don't need a huge map from a Bioware title. I just want a good story, with interesting characters and difficult narrative choices.
