This. Everything Infosys touches is garbage.

Digg did commit suicide. I was there for it.

It’ll only defeat X if corporations and specifically media and sports entities start using it.

Importantly, you probably don’t know what all is encrypted in every app you use on your phone, so it’s best practice to encrypt the transport.

California is awesome.

Well, there’s Chromium and then there’s Chrome.

Damnit. I love Firefox. What is the best alternative?

THEY ARE EATING THE PETS

Enjoy getting pwned I guess.

I refuse to use Facebook anymore, but my wife and others do. Apparently the search box is now a Meta AI box, and it pisses them every time. They want the original search back.

I’m not defending capacitive touch in cars. I don’t like it either. I’m just saying that it being blamed for an accident is silly to me.

I have one too. The only part of the cruise control system that is capacitive is the speed up and down. Love it.

Well, ok, how do you feel about Toyota’s or any other manufacturer’s cruise controls being on the wheel, where they almost always are now? It really isn’t that different.

Cruise control speed changes don’t rapidly accelerate or decelerate the vehicle, much like any vehicle. IMO, if someone is too addled to handle that state change, someone should take their keys from them.

It’s fine. Making a mountain out of a molehill.

Keep finding your axe against capacitive buttons, I don’t like them either. However, the ID.4 is most definitely not causing more people to crash than other cars. People can accidentally swipe touch controls on steering wheels, too.

The stereo causing someone to crash the car? That’s just Darwin at work.

There are falsehoods in the article. Go test drive an ID.4. I have a sneaking suspicion that this is yet another EV hit piece.

How would these be causing crashes? The ID.4 has a few cruise control buttons on the left side of the steering wheel. They are push buttons, but you can swipe the speed up or down to change it to the next 5 MPH. The resume button is not capacitive as the article states, you have to push it. Once again, this seems like people not wanting to take responsibility for their own lack of attention while driving and blaming it on the tech in the vehicle.

For me, playing against the computer inevitably results in me finding a repeatable way to beat it. If there is a story and varied environments, that is acceptable. However, for a real challenge, I’ll always go for human opponents.

All of those are very densely populated places.
