No, I have the 13. Although I'm not in front of it right now, so I could be misremembering.

Framework laptops do this- and the switch that kills the camera also slides a shutter over the lens as well.

very funny, very stupid

Well, their work is half done already!

For sure.

I'm a licensed electrician. I'm curious what my job prospects are going to look like in the coming months.

Trump was already elected before and quickly became irrelevant after his 4 years.

And who is going to be the next US President?

And who is nominating a Russian asset to be DNI?

And who is nominating a child sex trafficker to be AG?

Not to mention that the construction industry- particularly housing- just stops.

They don’t meet even the most basic crash safety standards.

Well that's just incorrect.

We actually have no idea what crash safety standards they meet because Tesla hasn't submitted them for any testing at all, and as we all know from Elon's new BFF, if you don't test for it, you won't have to worry about it.

Ford, Chevrolet, and Dodge each sold over 700k half-ton pickup trucks last year, while Toyota sold only 130k Tundras. I suppose it's possible that there are a quarter million suckers out there.

Uhh, driver support and networking have vastly improved since Windows XP.

If you had ever done a clean reinstall of XP, you'd know what a pain it was to make sure you had your NIC drivers on a floppy or USB drive before you started.

It sure seems like they aren't being very forthcoming with their data between this and being threatened with fines last year for not providing the data. That makes me suspect they still aren't telling the truth.

I think their silence is very telling, just like their alleged crash test data on Cybertrucks. If your vehicles are that safe, why wouldn't you be shoving that into every single selling point you have? Why wouldn't that fact be plastered across every Gigafactory and blaring from every Tesla that drives past on the road? If Tesla's FSD is that good, and Cybertrucks are that safe, why are they hiding those facts?

An FSD car that makes perfect decisions would theoretically be safer than a human driver who also makes perfect decisions, if for no other reason than the car could do it faster.

Personally, I would love to see autonomous cars see widespread use. They don't have to be perfect, just safer mile-for-mile than human drivers. (Which means that Teslas, with Musk's gobsmackingly stupid insistence on only using cameras, will never reach that threshold).

What, Guillemot thinks Ubisoft's share price is still too high?
