I’ve been wondering why Tesla (or others) doesn’t set up a system where drivers opt-in (no opt-in by default) to sending anonymized driving data to help train the model.

That’s exactly how they train the model, but every Tesla is opted in with, to my knowledge, no option to opt out.

Extremely annoying.

They have no qualms about lying to further their agenda. Many of the people leading these movements aren’t unintelligent, but rather immoral.

My thoughts exactly. Every election cycle, there are a slew of “Republican voters won’t be able to stomach THIS latest revelation!” articles. Then the Republicans dhed less than a rounding error of their voter base while picking up a nearly equal amount of votes from neo-Nazis or the like.

The party of immoral hypocrisy, “shockingly”, doesn’t care about the morality of their candidate so long as they “hurt the right people”.

I have seen some surprisingly uninformed users on the Internet, but you’re definitely up amongst the worst of them.

You know you’re on the Internet, right? You can use it to learn things instead of uncritically repeating whatever your favorite talking heads said.

And Elon’s abdomen is distended from sea horsing Putin’s young.

GotDAMN, that’s the fastest preemptive block I’ve ever made here. Thanks for pointing that out.

We bought a used one and just use a little Android Auto server we built for online services. It’s a little extra work but works great, giving me more control and options. No money to Musk that way. He does get our driving data, but we can pull the SIM card out of the car if we want to stop that.

I’m really sick of the whole “criticism of Israel is antisemitism” rhetoric.

It’s just playing dirty. Israel, much like modern conservative politicians, doesn’t care about how it achieves its goals. World War II has much of the western world hypersensitive to antisemitism, so conflating criticism of the Israeli government with antisemitism has been an easy way to stifle discourse.

Hah, I haven’t thought about Dragonball in ages. Thanks for the laugh.

Progress through turnover is true, and it’s maddening because the core tenets of science are explicitly against this. At our hearts, we’re still just apes with extra inflated egos.

This makes sense, you get physical copies! I haven’t purchased a physical copy in so long it didn’t even occur to me. Thanks for the explanation.

He truly is an idiot. I wish he’d just step down from Tesla. The company has some great ideas, but instead of making them better, he’s making everything worse.

Edit: some of the newer cars are being reequipped with radar but it’s not being actively utilized because of idiocy.

I’ve also had mixed results. My 2018 Prius is flawless, not a single false brake in nearly seven years. We recently purchased a Tesla (I know, I know, long story) and we had to turn the braking sensitivity so far down that the feature is now basically useless.

It’s actually Steve Huffman, AKA “Spez”, and the website Reddit.com.

But if you don’t take the quote out of context, it doesn’t support the narrative they’re imagining up!

I do love that so many people on the internet know exactly who you’re talking about when you say “greedy little pig boy”.

Imagine being the richest person in the world and still being this fragile.

The States convicted an innocent woman of treason for similar, if far less.

That is fucking glorious, thanks for taking the time to put that beautiful wall of text together.

Am scientist (well, was, before career change), can confirm. Fuck dogmatic scientists, they’re worse than regular dogmatists because they’ve been given many opportunities to know better.
