I’ll take a 5 sec delay over ads any fucking day of the week.

I completely agree.

Look that’s nice and all, but it’s not going away and it’s only going to get worse. The age of fake AI porn is only beginning. Full-on porn videos where you can take a couple of photos of someone and the AI will build a model of the person and insert them into the porn video is coming. Whether this is done for laughs, from embarrassment, or because it’s sexy doesn’t matter.

This genie is not going back in the bottle. This is only the tip of the iceberg. We are moving towards an age where you will be able to have virtual sex with anyone you want as long as you have a picture or video of them. VR sex and a porn game that can map someone into a character isn’t that far away. It really doesn’t harm anyone if we quit being such prudes.

That seems like really low numbers. Ex-Twitter is (in theory) a multi-billion dollar company and Visa should be a “whale” of a client… $77.5k is nothing for advertising revenue. A drop in the expense budget. That’s not even one software engineer. How does the company stay afloat if numbers look like that?

This comment requires more detail. As far as I can tell the search bar is only useful for typing “cmd” and getting a command prompt window. I’m pretty sure that’s all I ever use it for…

Windows search sucks balls so hard it boggles the mind how it can suck so bad. It’s like they created the search bar for Windows XP and haven’t updated it since. How can a company with so many smart people create something that shitty and never fix it?

So anyway, if I’m missing the toggle for “make windows search not suck”, please fill me in.

Oh I know. But every time I try to go back and play counterstrike it bothers me that I can’t aim down the sights and I really wish that was something they “fixed” in counterstrike 2.

After all this time, it bothers me way more than it should that you don’t aim down the sights.

The simple reason is that it depends on what in the floor can’t actually handle the 2000 lbs. If it’s a floor 1’x1’ floor tile that will break, then Elon is right. If the loade limit is a beam that spans a larger distance, then he’s totally wrong.

In places like a server room, you typically have a raised floor that supports tiles in the neighborhood of 1.5’-3 feet square. (The raised floor allows for all the cabling and air con to be run around the systems.) If you say that the floor can’t support more than 2000lbs that typically means they can’t guarantee enough of a safety margin and you run the risk of the object breaking through the floor. Musk’s wheel argument is crap unless he can be sure each wheel is not on the same floor support area. (Which obviously he can’t.)

However floors the spec will typically have some safety margin and that probably kept him from going through the floor. His logic, while not 100% wrong in the basic statement, lacked a deeper understanding of what was going on and certainly doesn’t help the idea that he’s a Tony Stark genius. It was a Dunning-Kruger level dumb statement to make.

If this statement was made in isolation I would give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he realized it was a stupid statement once he said it but he just didn’t bother to correct himself. However he’s made so many dumb and arrogant statements over the past few years, I assume it was just a dumb unsophisticated statement from someone who isn’t that bright.

Yeah, I made the switch on Mobile when YouTube’s ads started getting super annoying. Ad block is a killer app in my book.

There was a clause in the contract that said if he backed out he would have to pay $1 billion. Who knew that would actually have saved him way more to exercise that clause.

This 100% sounds like him. I don’t see any reason to doubt it given that if someone was going to make something up it wouldn’t sound like this.

Problem is there’s a catch 22. If you’re not lucid enough to answer those questions, you’re not lucid enough side whether you live or die from a legal standpoint.

Every law I know that allows euthanasia requires that the person have a terminal illness and enough mental faculties to make the decision. You run the risk of a loved one getting tried for murder if you ask them to give you the drugs and you are not competent to make the decision yourself.

Limited to mobile add-ons.

Maybe this will inspire the law. We can call it the “stop Tesla lying act”

Although to be fair, my 2012 Kia Hybrid also grossly over estimates it’s MPG. So much so that I also thought something was wrong with it when I first bought it, so it’s not just Tesla. MPG and range absolutely need some strict regulation on it with some real teeth if companies get caught gaming the system.
