Here is a guy explaining the problem. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3WldSl3HGr8
It appears multiple panels on the truck are just glued on which is crazy. Will Tesla just slather on bunch more glue and call it good? That seems like a bandaid over a pretty major problem. I’ll be sure there is a large distance between my car and one of these shitty trucks on the road in case they decide to shed some large panels.
Trust is extremely fragile and fleeting. Looks like Mozilla dropped it on the ground and it shattered into million pieces. Oh well, it was nice while it lasted. So long and thanks for all the fish.
GrayJay is an app associated with Louis Rossmann and lot of people seems to like him and therefore has gotten lot of traction lately but there is something you should know. This app is not open source even though source may be available. The app is not licensed in any existing open source license such as GPL, BSD, or MIT, etc. The source license is basically does not allow freedom of redistribution of modified code so therefore it fails the minimal definition of open source. Louis Rossmann has gone on the record on video saying he will sue people if someone were to do something with code he does not approve of whatever that means. Number of people have tried to tell him not to call GrayJay an open source app but he simply ignored them. It’s pretty clear he is now just calling this app open source for marketing purposes which I think is misleading and deceptive.
If you want to buy the app because you find it useful and you don’t care about open source, that’s perfectly fine. However if you believe that supporting an open source ecosystem is part of the reason for supporting GrayJay, then you should know what’s really happening here.
EDIT: I did some digging and it appears Louis Rossmann has stopped referring GrayJay as open source app. I tried searching for his original GrayJay announcement video and it appears it’s gone. I guess enough people have pestered him about his misconception of open source so he removed all mention of open source. GrayJay does have a source code available and it comes with LICENSE. Good on him to clarify the situation. Just for clarification, it is clearly not open source because of non-commercial limitation. This license is not compatible with open source so using any portion in your open source project is not allowed. The limitation is so broad that it’s probably best to just stay far away from it to be safe.
That area is not very windy but 32-34F which is pretty cold. Not good.
This is terrible tragedy. It’s been few hours since the accident and no words on survivors so it’s looking grim. NTSB has lot of work to do to figure out what happened so it won’t happen again.
Edit: Just watching the press conference at 1am and they won’t talk about survivors or fatalities. It’s a bad sign.
2nd Edit: blancolirio video Juan Browne does excellent analysis on aircraft incidents.
3rd Edit: 2nd blancolirio video This update is tough to watch.
Some Alternatives:
Organic Maps (Mobile)
EDIT: Added Organic Maps
EDIT: Removed Apple Maps since they’ve made their change.
I think a mini game could be had here. Create an account and post something that’s not overly ban worthy offense like mentioning Tiananmen Square or posting a picture of Winnie-the-Pooh but something subtle and see where the boundaries are. I bet there are lots of invisible lines where ban can be tripped. It could be it’s own community.
This is just awful. Pardons for what? What crimes? Pardon implies wrong doing and there were no laws broken here. Suddenly pardon becomes immunity from future prosecutions from an unknown crimes? It’s just ridiculous. I was already disappointed with President Joe Biden’s pardoning of his son but this one is even worse in a different way. This so called preemptive pardons is basically implying the justice system is so broken and untrustworthy to protect the innocent from a tyrant.
The whole TikTok thing is a complete shitshow from start to finish. The whole effort to ban TikTok started because bunch of kids organized and trolled Trump by mass signups to his rally creating whole lot of empty seats. Democrats went along with TikTok ban because they thought they can use the guise of protecting American citizens’ privacy and national security as means to score cheap political points. Neither political parties actually care about citizen’s privacy because if they did they would have passed a comprehensive data privacy law that covers every social media platforms long time ago.
Apparently some Trump aid has advised him that he can look like a hero by rescuing TikTok and win the hearts and minds of the youth. Do I think Trump cares about free speech or welfare of people who make a living off of the platform? Hell no. It’s all political theater.
From looking at how TikTok is behaving as the deadline loom ever closer, it’s very suspect. If they are actually motivated by profit then one would think they’d be scrambling to find a buyer but they seem completely disinterested in that. It does appear their motives aren’t about money but elsewhere. And then all of a sudden there is an exodus to a Xiaohongshu (RedNote or Little Red Book) app which is heavily censored Chinese lifestyle propaganda platform. Maybe I’m being cynical but this feels a bit “influenced”.
When all is said and done I think TikTok is just fishy as hell. Also what I can take away from all this is at least some of the users of TikTok are absolute morons that are easily swayed by misinformation and propaganda.
I think he will scam this tariff money through this so called “external revenue service” run by his cronies that will also get a cut. Billions will get funneled to his offshore bank account. Sadly press is all in his pockets so we’ll never know. The whole thing sounds like a giant scam.
I can imagine a headline “Republicans swiftly call for gun control measures after a senseless shooting of UnitedHealthCare CEO.”
If those robo taxes are working off of similar system to their half baked self driving tech, it would be a disaster. I keep seeing videos of Waymo taxis clogging up the streets of San Francisco and those things have much better suite of sensors than Tesla. It’s insane that our public road has become a alpha/beta testing platform for bunch of tech bros.
It boggles my mind why anyone would still be holding onto Tesla stock right now. The board and the Musk are actively trying to screw them over right now and one judge barely managed to prevent shareholders from getting shafted. How does it make any sense to hold onto Tesla shares at this point?
This is strategically dumbest move he can make. Taylor Swift has been relatively quite for a while now regarding politics and now either she or her publicist is basically forced to respond to this. My best guess is Trump is trying to stir the pot to get any kind of attention but this isn’t it.
Yikes. I feel sorry for all the help desk and support staff that has to deal with this chaotic mess all day.
This Chinese CPU and mobo is not meant to compete against Intel or AMD based system. This 4 core CPU is probably comparable to 2019 Intel or AMD CPU at best. This CPU meant for two markets, domestic Chinese consumers and Chinese government. The west sees China as emerging threat so they’ve been blocking lot of chip manufacturing tech and high end GPUs used for AI. The Chinese government wants to be less dependent on western technology and build their own domestic CPU. Also Chinese government may be paranoid about Intel IME and AMD ST spying on them so this CPU would alleviate that worry. Clearly it’s not meant to be sold in mass to western consumers. If I had to guess actual competitive price of this CPU and mobo combo is around $150 at the most.

CPU + Mobo combo plus a CPU cooler which adds up to about $381.40 which is $8 more than Chinese CPU + mobo combo. I think that’s close enough to be within the margin of price fluctuations. That AM5 mobo comes with four memory slots, PCIe 4.0, USB 3.2 and Wifi 6E. Those features may be worth extra $8 for some.
This is not a good deal. First of all I highly doubt this mobo and CPU will be Windows 11 compatible so you’re out of luck there. For $373 you can find an AMD Ryzen 5 7600X and mobo combo deal that will vastly outperform this Chinese CPU. Also AMD’s AM5 platform is DDR5 while this Chinese CPU and mobo combo is DDR4. $373 is a ridiculously non competitive price.
With the current state of streaming services mess, I think I would have signed up for disc rental by mail. Access to nearly 100% of media at highest quality for around 10 to 15 bucks a month seems like pretty good deal right about now. Sadly Netflix killed that part of their business so I can’t even go back to that.
Which tech company would buy Chrome from Google? I just can’t think of a single tech company that could be an improvement over Google owning Chrome.
Amazon
Apple
Meta
Microsoft
Oracle
What about media companies? I don’t see consumers benefiting from this.
Comcast
Disney
Netflix
Viacom
What about telecom? I still don’t see consumers benefiting from this.
AT&T
T-Mobile
Verizon
What about foreign companies? Will they be even allowed to buy Chrome? I’m not sure.
LG
Philips
Samsung
Sony
The more I think about it, this won’t end well.
