    I'm very excited for Apreras vehicles and hope they are successful. Their whole philosophy is hyper efficient vehicles and they are committed to open repair and bring consumer friendly.

    They seem to be the only company making cars or attempting to make cars that makes a point to say that they will make it as easy as possible for you to control, repair and fix your own vehicle.

    Arguably incorrect statement from you, and either way humans already make more mistakes, fatal mistakes, compared to a full self driving car system like Waymo.

    Getting a ride in an autonomous Waymo is safer than an Uber.

    I also use Firefox on my work computer, I need to quickly authorize a login in the browser before the local "app" opens ("app" because it's just a webpage pretending to be an app) and I just recently got a notification that slack won't support Firefox anymore so please switch to chrome. The fucking animals.

    I'm just telling you how it is, people's feelings on this won't stop the march of progress. Machines will take over most driving tasks, it's inevitable.

    "A man can notice a mistake and correct it, a machine will continue as if everything is fine." Even if this is 100% true you already say yourself that machine driving will still be safer "user error to fuck it up for every body." User error will 100% be why autonomous vehicles will be overall significantly safer to use and be around vs manual driving vehicles.

    Na driverless cars are the future and tens of thousands of people will be saved from car accident deaths per year once most cars are automated. And this may happen in my lifetime which is cool.

    You have a bad take imo.

    If no kids were indoctrinated into religion, there would be significantly less religious people, I can dream.

    The majority of people need to be taught religion when their kids to believe in it before they develop their critical thinking skills, once you're an adult and have critical thinking skills it takes a much more unintelligent or wishful thinking person to invest in the idea of religion.

    It is crazy, and as I said in another comment this is going to be exponential. We will have many mega constellations like starlink in the next decade.

    Not necessarily a "starlink trail" you took a photo of a satellite, could be starlink could be something else. Also the astrophotography mode on the pixels is purdy cool and fun to mess around with

    In the next decade we will have maybe a dozen companies or entities with mega constellations like starlink, this issue will only get worse not better. Ground based astronomy for scientific purposes seems like it's reached the end of being feasible.

    Because the driver is supposed to be responsible for the vehicle, not saying this approach is right but I think fsd clearly states you need to be present and responsible for the vehicle while fsd is engaged.

    So it's been allowed to go on because a human is still 'in control ' of the vehicle.

    At least that's my take on the situation.

    I actually don't know what people's hesitancy is, but I've seen numerous people say proton is not good, we'll see if anybody chimes in with a reason.

    I would say eve typically do have more controls on touchscreens vs buttons. Now this issue is mainly observed in Teslas more than any other car, but Teslas are the most popular ev so ya it's definitely more of a problem on evs.

    Android auto is great, but it's also a horrible cluster fuck because it's up to the automakers to integrate it into their system. Sort of just like Android phones from Samsung and other third-party companies.

    The automakers usually fuck it up. It works fairly great on my 2015 Mazda 3 except for if I plug my phone in while the car is in reverse or some other odd times, the head unit just gets stuck on a black screen until I restart the car. Also, the touch screen doesn't work for Android auto which is a bummer.

    I'm just starting to get back into growing mushrooms and have a few Oyster blocks ready to fruit. Problem is the temperature in my house/grow tent is usually in the high 70's or low 80's (f), and the humidity is in the 30% range. I figured a swamp cooler could help with both of these problems. I've made DIY swamp coolers using a 5 gallon bucket in the past, and I nearly did that again this time, but I'm trying to learn CAD so I decided to try and make something and print it instead of DIYing a 5 gallon bucket. Besides the fact that the integrated tubing inside the print is basically impossible to clean it is working well! Here's the humidity and temperature graph over an hour after turning on the device. ![](https://mander.xyz/pictrs/image/e8c2c3a9-0e6f-43fa-98d1-c2c38d08a82c.png)
