Well, neither is a car I would want to own, so the comparison is a good one. 

Sounds like they must have fired the electronics team that designed it and could not find anyone else willing or able to figure out the problem.

I cannot put here what I think should happen to drunks because I’d rather not be banned. My parents were nearly killed by a drunk and I have been in a car hit by a drunk. Oh, the cop lied on that latter report.

Either let her out or don’t. Raising the bail amount is mere discrimination against low income. She should be on a GPS ankle monitor and a restriction from driving anywhere except as required and bond revoked if she is found anywhere near a liquor bottle.

I want actual drunk drivers to have their ankles pulverized and at least a year in prison, but cops don’t just stop actual drunk drivers and the field tools they use are crap. The cops can ask for a warrant to get a blood draw, but they don’t want to because they would have to supply more than something that isn’t…

You miss that the reason for asking about the breathalyzer in the first place is flawed.

Field sobriety test = cop works hard to notice anything, even things that aren’t there. Like drug sniffing dogs trained to “indicate” on command, usually a small sound or hand signal, the Field sobriety test is a fake-out to claim “reasonable suspicion” and “probable cause.”

I want touch-screen accelerator and brake and steering. Get rid of the mechanical interface completely. Make sure the screen lighting is so bright that night vision is completely obliterated and maybe have it off to the side where little animations can constantly play within peripheral vision to draw attention from…

There are no anti-cancer service dogs and cancer isn’t particularly caring of emotions. On the theory that it is trained as a medical alert dog. if that requires it to have a sense of smell, that is not what this sort of dog can do. 

Open seating means fewer times having someone in Row 2 Window waiting for Row 2 Aisle and Row 2 middle to get back out of their pre-selected seats while the other 30 rows of people stand in the jetway. If Row 2 Window is blocked, Row 3 Window is likely open.

Glad the recovery was quick. I’m old enough now I can get a similar injury if the pillow moves wrong while I’m asleep.

Sad to hear it happened - glad you and your daughter appear to be OK.

Not just a new design on new cars - they need to recall and retrofit existing cars with physical buttons or they buy the cars back as not fit for purpose. 

Depends on who is outside the vault and what they want to do to you.

The software is to prevent a mal-actor from taking control of the system and doing whatever they wanted with it. Grinding to a halt is better than putting all the aircraft on a collision course, for example. While that may seem extreme, that is only the upper limit. It could simply shut it all down as ransomware; same…

BEEEEP!
BEEEEP!
BEEEEP!

It’s not the Earth that is flat - it’s the sky that is flat.

Another source indicates that kernel drivers are of two types - must load and may load. The Crowdstrike driver is given “must load” status to prevent it being easily defeated or bypassed by adversarial software. This failure was because the driver uses p-code adaption files to keep up to date and the driver didn’t…

This appears to be a follow-on to the Space Nuclear Thermal Propulsion (SNTP) Program. That program followed Project Timberwind that was part of the Strategic Defense Initiative. SNTP seems like it was based on improving NERVA.

It appears to no longer do this. Actually got to read the remaining comments on the first try!
