Lamb is quite popular down here in Australia. I usually keep some rendered fat from my roasts etc. Sometimes I cook other meats with it and it adds heaps of flavour. I do that with pork fat as well.

Isn't that common across all watches that connect to your phone these days? Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Edit: Also, not saying it's a good thing.

My bathroom scale requires gps access via my phone if I want to log data to it...

From my understanding, apps need location permissions if they want to scan for available bluetooth devices rather than having the user pair in the bluetooth settings app. The reason being that advertisers set up bluetooth beacons all over the place and used passive scanning in apps to collect the users location.

What's not clear to me is why they really need to be able to scan for bluetooth. Surely requesting location permissions is worse UX than having the user go to the settings app to pair.

The lowest common denominator user is more afraid of visiting the settings menu than they are of clicking allow on just about any permissions popup.

yeah that's not good! That's why I don't want to buy a "smart" fridge or any of these appliances that require Wifi access.

I think greedy execs are a much bigger problem than "The people just here for the paychecks".

Why else would you "work", if it weren't for the pay cheques to support yourself and your family?

Because I believed in the product! (Firefox, in my case)

It's the same for me. I'm in Australia and on my work laptop I'm connected to an American VPN. It's showing my location as USA. I was wondering how it's detecting the country.

This is the whole reason why middle class is dying and power and wealth are being consolidated amongst the rich.

I've been through two restructures and both times I'd full access to everything for a month until my position was being decided. There thousand plus employees affected and not a single one did anything like what you've described. I'm Australian if that helps.

A 2mph bump isn’t nothing. If it failed to stop it can trample people. It can still do damage to elderly or disabled people. The 17mph collision may have caused some minor damage to the “fixed object” but that fixed object could've been someone standing still. Tesla is not making an effort, they're doing the bare minimum.

Are the facts presented in the article incorrect?

One of them is a bus hitting a stationary Tesla - hard to paint that as the teslas fault.

A few are low speed reversing into things, the extreme majority of which done by humans are never reported and are not in the dataset comparing how many crashes Tesla have had vs humans.

I would say they’re facts, but they’re being used dishonesty

> One of them is a bus hitting a stationary Tesla - hard to paint that as the teslas fault.

Since the narratives are redacted, who's to say the Tesla didn't change lanes to be in front of the bus, slam on the brakes, then get rear ended?

Or pull partially out of a driveway, stopping and blocking a lane with a bus traveling 35mph in said lane and got hit by it?

> A few are low speed reversing into things, the extreme majority of which done by humans are never reported and are not in the dataset comparing how many crashes Tesla have had vs humans.

I'm sure this happens to humans all the time, but not a single one of those humans would be considered a good (or even decent) driver.

> not a single one of those humans would be considered a good (or even decent) driver.

So is the bar here being a good or decent driver, or being x times worse than the average human?

I see a lot of bar moving.

> I see a lot of bar moving.

"Less than decent" means "worse than the average human driver".

I've never hit a stationary object, or any object for that matter, in 20 years of driving.

I understand that might not be the same for you. My bar is that it must be better than my own good driving.

That is a completely made up bar that is impossible to test for, and can never be met.

Even Waymo have tons of reported crashes in the same document.

Self driving cars need to be better than the average human - which means less injuries and deaths. Given 100 people will be killed on the road in the US today, it’s actually not a crazy high bar to clear.

> That is a completely made up bar that is impossible to test for, and can never be met.

My own bar being a self driving car better than me is made up and impossible to test for?

Stop trying to force shitty self driving implementations down other's throats. If they were good and useful, people would voluntarily use them.

> Self driving cars need to be better than the average human

And Teslas are obviously not, to everyone except the terminally brainwashed. Two more weeks until it works though, right?

I’m not shoving anything. I don’t make the laws. If you don’t like them, elect different representatives.

Your bar is irrelevant, this isn’t about you, personally. This is about everyone.
