Thank you for standing up to the slavering morons around here about bad statistical graphics.

All I’m getting out of this is that police are, in fact less than 50% effective, so we’d better plan on dealing with it ourselves.

According to the article, they’re going for multiple counts of money laundering and wire fraud with 20 years each.

Let’s not forget about HotHardware. They’re still carrying the torch of detailed hardware analysis as well my beloved NotebookCheck.

I’ve found that’s because their mice will go to sleep and upon first waking they’ll briefly use an onboard profile before switching to the G Hub profile. This is also why it might feel like it has a different DPI briefly or different light settings for just a flash. The only way to fix this is to use their totally separate OnboardMemoryManager software to change the onboard settings while running G Hub. It solved this issue for me and it’s infuriating that this isn’t built into G Hub…

According to the description, it’s just the sensor, not the latch. The microswitch has a lever like many do and that lever can become bent if damaged which would prevent it from warning the user if they failed to latch the hood. Most older cars just had a secondary latch so if you failed to latch it completely, at least the secondary one would catch it…

Microswitch lever fatigue is what this sounds like and it’s really not the kind of thing that a QA team could ever detect without years of testing. This is just how it’ll go as we add more bells and whistles to all our cars. More obscure new issues will be identified years down the line and added to institutional knowledge for future use.

The only way the hood can pop open on the highway is if it was open before you departed, so the warning would alert the user just like the switch did before they can drive to a dangerous speed.

Although the problem is with the hood latch, as with many Tesla safety recalls, the problem can be fixed with an over-the-air software patch.

There are manual releases on each door inside, but I’m surprised they don’t have them outside as well.

Reading more about it, I find that many only have manual releases on the front doors until recently and they have a connection point you’re meant to jump with power to unlock and open from the outside. I didn’t think anyone would be okay waiting for a jump to get their baby out, but then these people waited for firemen to break their window, so…

Maybe not skip them, but instead play something else over top of them like another video you like, a music segment, or cat videos.

I don’t know about you, but what I learned is we’ll build our own Youtube with blackjack and hookers.

They’re so brave.

I never click on these, but I feel like if they made it explicit that this ad is to determine whether this kind of game is wanted, I’d feel much better clicking on it.

Sounds like typical politicians.

Yeah, I just realized what they intend and am thinking the same thing. It sounds like they intend a closed rail network between the ports to eliminate things like customs, but it’s still gonna take at least a day of processing on each end of that.

I feel like a canal between Ranong and Chumphon wouldn’t be too bad at around 27mi (43km).

Malicious degredation.

Yeah, it works fine for me, so…?

That’s called PDLC film (polymer-dispersed liquid crystal) and it’s a thin layer you can apply to anything. It’s literally liquid crystal droplets suspended in a plastic sheet layered between transparent ITO conductors (indium-tin-oxide).

A distinctive feature of panels layered with this is that there must be a bezel along at least one edge through which to run the power. I don’t see any in the right places on the doors for these, so nope, these are just clear glass without any PDLC film.

They really started trying to catch up to chrome several years ago and have succeeded recently.

I switched to Onedrive recently and it went pretty smoothly for me. Feels like trading ones evil for another, though.
