  • 😨

  • Isn't it all unicode at the end of the day, so it supports anything unicode supports? Or am I off base?

  • You literally cannot mess with your emissions system legally.... nor can you disable or modify certain safety systems (seat belts, etc). Software that goes into vehicles requires validation testing. You might be fine doing 1 off things, but there will never be a "flash able" car on the market that let's you bring your own software, and honestly I'm good with that. I don't need your massive multiple ton machine bluescreening down the highway or locking up the breaks randomly because you installed the wrong module.

  • I later did ask it to just be helpful, specifically requesting it give me some possible words that fit for the 5 letter possibility for #1. It repeated "floor it" lol.

  • 🤔

  • Not great, honestly.

  • Also never ask it to solve a picture of a crossword.

  • That'll literally never happen due to testing and safety requirements.

  • 😴 Sure buddy. Sure. You're the coolest narcissistic asshole I know.

  • You're just a bundle of joy. Bet people like having you around at parties.

  • Multicast still requires more expensive less widespread bandwidth than sending out analog signals ota & shooting off a few packets of encryption information every now and then. US infrastructure has rapidly improved over the past few years, but we're still a farcry from anything robust and reliable enough to serve the people benefiting from this type of content.

  • How I imagine you responding to your singular downvoter:

  • While I almost completely agree with you, never underestimate the power of using the right tool for the right job. HDMI is actually far more resilient to signal corruption in my experience than display port since it implements TMDS and the cables are more commonly well shielded since they expect them to be used in device dense environments, which isn't really applicable to anyone familiar with technology (don't group up your cables next to something with significant RF noise/leaks, duh.) but does matter for the end user use case these see. The fees hdmi charge are a scam though fr and we could ask better from the industry.

  • Yeah... That type of brainwashing is so commonplace now though. Just look at how the US is treating striking dock workers, people keep talking about how they make xxx,xxx and not how the ceos make xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx like it's the workers being greedy... 🥲

  • Bandwidth is cheaper from the tower since the signal is the "same" for each client and it can then be distributed over a wide area. You send the "DRM" (Just a fancy encryption key) over the network since it's relatively small and likely unique to each device (probably fingerprinting the device ids to the content invisibily in case of piracy).

  • A pre-registered checksum will ensure that the downloaded file is what it says it is before running. So yes, it is safe. Unless you've found a collision in the checksum algorithm apple is using, although the chances are better that you'll squeeze water out of dry desert sand.

    (Edit: To those thinking they'll rely on just code signing for this, you're likely way off base.)

  • Yeah. Just how it goes unfortunately. Consumer buy-in is vastly underrepresented in the technology world. Google, Facebook, Twitter, etc have all leveraged customer and community laziness to push the boundaries without much blowback. If Elon's tenure over twitter/xitter shows anything, it's that.
