dan1101 , to til in TIL that Ferrari & Lamborghini no longer make cars with a manual transmission

Depends on your daily commute. I have daileyed manuals for 6 daily drivers.

dan1101 , to technology in Questions about the safety of Tesla's 'Full Self-Driving' system are growing

Tesla keeps promising things are fixed in the next update, then the next update, and so on. I don’t think Tealas have the proper sensors to avoid collisions and their algorithms don’t think like an attentive driver does.

dan1101 , to til in TIL that Ferrari & Lamborghini no longer make cars with a manual transmission

I think traffic is the cause of a lot of the loss of interest in manuals. Live somewhere to get good salary and a good car, that place usually has bad traffic.

dan1101 , to technology in Microsoft donates the Mono Project to the Wine team

In an organization as large as MS there have to be a few good guys. Just don’t let the corporate leadership hear about it.

dan1101 , to til in TIL that Ferrari & Lamborghini no longer make cars with a manual transmission

I just find manuals more fun and engaging to drive. Even an 80hp shitbox is better with a manual.

dan1101 , to news in Scientists tied to chemical industry plan to derail PFAS rule on drinking water

And if we elect Trump this will only be the beginning.

dan1101 , to news in Canada imposes a 100% tariff on imports of Chinese-made electric vehicles, matching the U.S.

I would buy a cheap Chinese EV. I’m not paying $45,000 for one.

dan1101 , to asklemmy in How do you interact with children?

Kids like attention. Ask them what they like to play, and what they like to watch. Talk to them like little adults and they generally will like that.

dan1101 , to world in Georgia goes ‘North Korea’ with bombshell plan to ban main opposition parties

Seems like their actual name is translated as Sakartvelo, we should use that. And when the state of Georgia is in a headline it should be “The US state of Georgia.”

dan1101 , to world in ‘Never summon a power you can’t control’: Yuval Noah Harari on how AI could threaten democracy and divide the world

What we have now is not the AI we need to fear. The only thing to fear in LLMs is blindly trusting them.

dan1101 , to nostupidquestions in What is this plant?

I know it as Periwinkle, it has purple flowers occasionally and is good as a ground cover. I plant it intentionally in shady places that tend to get weeds. I haven’t had any problems with it spreading into my yard.

dan1101 , to technology in Microsoft formally deprecates the 39-year-old Windows Control Panel

They need to finish Settings before doing that. Control Panel is almost always the easier way to accomplish things and still the only way to accomplish some IIRC.

dan1101 , to memes in Cooked

If a massive number of voters would vote third party that would be great. But based on every presidential election ever that’s just wishful thinking. The reality is a vote for a third party is one less vote for the best chance to defeat Trump.

The reality here is we aren’t going to win with a non genocide candidate. The best we can do is go with the masses and vote the least bad candidate in.

dan1101 , to news in Kamala Harris’ welcome housing boost is overdue

I live in a rural area and I’m sort of a NIMBY. I live in my area because there are forests and fields and nature. I didn’t build a house, I bought one built in the 1970s. I don’t think everything needs to be growing all the time, new houses are being built on every road around here and what was a nice rural area is gradually becoming the same Walmart and McDonalds suburbs as you see all across the USA. If I wanted to live in suburbs it would have been easy to move to suburbs.

The board of supervisors here is always saying “We need more jobs and we need more growth.” Ironic because the majority of them are developers, and my property taxes have gone up over 12% each of the past 3 years.

dan1101 , to asklemmy in Do you value high fidelity (audio, visual, or other)? Do you notice a difference?

This is equally true with visual media

Yes, the style of graphics to me is more important than things like motion blur and god rays.
