  • Vivaldi is including its own adblock outside of the manifest system that uses many of the same blocklists that uBlock does (although at this point you have to add them manually) and hopes to get near the same functionality by the time it is pulled and Mv3 is implemented. They originally had plans to offer a Mv2 compliant area but after seeing how Mv3 was going to be implemented, they changed there plans to many users dismay.

  • Not Lying. The vast amount of the stories of people trapped in their Tesla when they loose power are drivers and are alone. So this is what the manual says the person who is in that situation has to do to get out of the car. You showed the Back Seat. This is what they have to do in the front seat.

    They have to throw a simple latch. Worst case if you run out of power, say pulling into a charging area because the last one you planned on using was down and you had to make it on a very low charge, and the people in the back did not know about the pulley system they would have to either get out of one of the front doors or wait in the vehicle for help.

  • OK, on the designed by an idiot, or in this case concepted and OK'd by an idiot, and the rest of the engineering and work of making that work was actually left up to good engineers, we both can agree on.

  • You mean it is too complicate to open a door handle? You do know those news stories about people getting trapped in their Teslas had to be taken down because you can just open the door, the people who were trapped weren't only stupid, they were locked in a vehicle with the manual that told them how to get out of the car and they never looked at it.

    1. The 'central computer' doesn't control the car's controls. It is made to come to sudden stop if it fails and the person can still steer.
    2. The doors have manual overrides that defeat the locks and open the doors. People who have been "trapped in their Tesla" when it lost power haven't even looked at the manual. Every door and hood has a way to open it from the inside and there is even a way to emergency release the charger if you have to.
    3. Ever single issue is as much an issue for ICE cars as EV's. Bullet resistant windows on most cars are a risk, however some teslas have an override for their power windows. ICE cars have been hacked and taken control of through the computer in their entertainment system, that like a Tesla, actually is the main computer system for their car. ICE cars have Electric door locks as well.If the accident was powerful enough to rupture the battery with the metal signposts, it could also open up the gas tank and set it on fire as the car was going in excess of 65.

  • The fact that you are taking the words "explodey-gas" as a serious reference to the fire and not the form of propulsion that ICE cars use and take it seriously makes me wonder about your media literacy.

  • Hmmm I wonder if a vehicle filled with flammable explodey-gas who just drove over 2 metal signs at high speed would be on fire as well? Would it have gotten the attention that this vehicle had, given that ICE cars burn many times more often than EV's do.

    It is a tragedy and should be investigated but these articles have to get off the "It's new so it's bad" bandwagon until the investigators come in. It could have been a flat tire at high speeds that sent the car onto that shoulder and over those signs. There is uneven wear on the tires so on the outside of Regenerative Breaking EV's tires look almost new on the outside but trashed on the inside. If it blew because of that, or some nail on the road then there is no fault on Tesla and the man-boy who runs it. If however say steering went or the airbag randomly went off when the car was at speed my least favourite Martian and Tesla would be culpable.

    Until then turn the sensationalism on your stories down to 11.

  • Discord was based off of Slack and Microsoft Teams is a trash knockoff. All depends what you intend to use it for.

  • GBH News could not reach Odysee’s current leadership for comment on this story. Kauffman responded with a one-line email comment last week.

    “Every so-called journalist at GBH Boston is as evil as a reporter for Pravda, and a proper society would deport, jail, or execute them,” he wrote.**

    Kauffman has been criticized for now deleted tweets about murdering trans people. He is also a leader of the Mises Caucus, a national group of Libertarians who the Southern Poverty Law Center says are colluding with far-right leaders to gain political power nationwide.

    “High-profile MC members espouse hateful rhetoric and collaborate with white nationalists,’’ the Southern Poverty Law Center wrote in a 2022 blog post.

    Kauffman most recently made headlines after being connected to a New Hampshire Libertarian Party online post, saying, “Anyone who murders Kamala Harris would be an American hero.” Kauffman posted a video on X showing how he berated federal authorities who came to his house to ask about the post, while claiming nothing unlawful had occurred.>

    Ooooooh, thats why they did this one sided hit piece. And just to be clear FUCK KAUFFMAN!!!

    LBRY shuts down, but Odysee lives on Kauffman’s company LBRY shut its doors in 2023 after a federal judge ruled in favor of the SEC. But despite LBRY’s closure, Odysee has thrived. More than 40 million visits were recorded at the site between April 2024 and June 2024, according to SimilarWeb, a company that monitors online traffic.

    In June, Sam Williams, the founder of another blockchain platform called Arweave and its parent company, Forward Research, announced that he had acquired Odysee. Representatives for Williams did not respond to a request for an interview.>

    So I don't get it, either big bad Kauffman is in charge of Odysee, or this new guy who acquired it is? What, no bad things you could say about him so you went to Kauffman knowing you would likely get an unhinged quote after his company Lbry died after the SEC ruling?

    Something they they don't get is that censorship resistant to the right, Alt-right. Neo-Nazis, and so on is also censorship resistant the Left, far-left, Marxists, Socialists, and other people. Now if you find that they aren't doing that, then maybe your story has a basis. The vast majority of creators on there are at most small C conservatives and most don't even espouse an opinion.>>

  • Do you know how much it would cost him to host his stuff. He would have to do it instead of his business. Hosting video is not a simple thing. YOU pay for the bandwidth for every user that streams or downloads you video, unless you want him to cut his reach by a 3/4 and host it by torrent. And that is just the video... push notices for new videos because he is not on a broad platform for discoverability, which would also mean he would have to spend allot of time advertising his content... It just doesn't stop.

    And that is if he would be OK with most enterprise models on serving his content, which we both know he isn't.

  • Even though they are smaller than YouTube a huge amount of video gets uploaded so they largely rely on reports. The issue is that for the reports to work, people have to actually got to watch their videos and, for their team to get to them, they have to get multiple reports. This was made worse by they capital expenditure they went through while fighting their classification.
