until Trump determines that Ukrainian leaders are making a genuine effort toward peace.

They are literally shooting every Russian they spot on their soil, how is that not making a genuine effort toward peace?

Mostly in the US though, but unfortunately the US is leaking :(

I don't disagree, but what's up with climate? Of all the things I change during a drive, climate is probably the least used one. IMO, if the car has a decent HVAC system, it should be set and forget (less the defroster and A/C max in summer).

It might be that manufacturers see in their data that most people use it set and forget nowadays anyways, which made the cost cutting decision easier.

The NCAP score for these should be -5, no way that is safe!

It’s WYSIWYG all over again…

Question: do we attribute Russia's actions to terrorism? I would wager yes, as it can easily be labeled as a terrorist state at this point. In that case, I think we can give them lots of credit, right?

Concludes that it works, but it's not quite there yet. And looking at other replies here, it's even more challenging if you want to play competitive multiplayer games that use anti cheat software. Which are games I still enjoy to play.

Great article and also outlines why I'm not switching today. I already have to deal with plenty of shit during my work hours, gaming is a way for me to relax and wind down. I don't want to think or deal with a sub optimal gaming experience, to then have to bug fix in my spare time.

You can say all the negative stuff you want about Windows, but it does run games well. The moment I can expect to have the same experience on Linux, I will switch, it's that simple.

Not sure if we can really blame Steve Jobs for this though, he wasn't around when things turned to shit. The iPhone he introduced was merely a phone, web browser, email and music player.

I think it's fair if we blame Tim Apple for this and the other big tech CEO's of the recent past.

As a Model 3 (2024) driver, I fully agree! Meanwhile I finally nailed down a little over half the instances where it might phantom brake, so I'm more prepared. A common theme is cars moving within their lane while driving next to them. Even if they don't cross the line into my lane, the car will still brake abruptly.

Why bother having cruise control if you cannot use it comfortably and always have to rest your foot above the accelerator anyways?

This is then only regarding phantom braking. Another dangerous thing is the automatic speed adjustment of the cruise control. I have this set to "off", but the car seems to completely ignore that setting. It happened multiple times that the car changed set speed, both up and down. Imagine driving 130 on cruise and the car sees a sign that says "90 when asphalt is wet" but it's dry. The car thinks it's 90 and slams the brakes.

All I want is just dumb cruise control for cruising and traffic aware cruise control in traffic jams, is that too much to ask?

Such a long time ago and I still hear this scene when I see the picture combined with the slightly altered text. Wild.

Just to check, because I'm no longer sure:

Is this real?
