I remember describing it as driving with a teenager, they got the general idea, but would make bad decisions so you had to watch them.
This is worse than just driving yourself. I either need to be engaged in actively driving, or it really needs to be able to handle the task by itself.
It's why I find the lane-keeping feature in my vehicle to be useful, but lane-centering is just too weird for me to use.
The thing with (full) self-driving is that the edge cases are the challenge. Driving is the Pareto Principle really cranked up: (fully made up numbers) 2% of the driving represents 90% of the difficulty. And highway driving is a much simpler task to be automated than driving on a stroad, weird intersections, unprotected turns, etc.
I think we are a long ways off from full self-driving, and highway driving capabilities of current vehicles only address what is by far the easiest scenario. And even there those capabilities are limited from what I've seen.
Seems to apply to urinals too. There's a whole open row, don't pick the one next to me.
Underrated benefit of Lemmy is that it isn't infested with bots the way its larger counterpart is. Reddit has really turned to garbage.
Lower quantity of content here, but more authentic
Right or wrong, I used to consider BBC to be one of the less biased news sources, at least compared to U.S. news outlets.
Well, they may still be less biased comparatively, but that is a very low bar.
If western govs refuse to impose real legal sanctions that actually have some teeth, then our only resort is for the general public (including organized non-gov groups) to impose social sanctions.
Yes, lots of us want to stop the genocide - it’s just not on this ballot.
What a democracy we live in where we don't even have the choice to vote against a genocide. What a sham.
I voted for Harris as a matter of cold practicality, but being railroaded into this is repugnant and I do have the right voice my disgust.
Disgusting government overreach. This was an entirely predictable consequence of overturning Roe vs Wade, and people have been warning about it for years.
Given the recent atrocities committed by the state of Israel, I think it is time for Germany to revisit their policy.
Trump really is the gift that keeps on giving.
I'm sure people in other nations are holding their breath right now. This election has huge consequences world wide.
I'm a big fan of assists where I am still actively driving. They are there if I make an error (e.g. drift to the edge of a lane) rather than doing the driving for me.
Lane-keeping is actually on by default in my vehicle, and I find it to be a nice feature. Lane-centering feels too weird for me, so I've tried it out but am uncomfortable using it.
