  • Tesla’s Autopilot and Full Self-Driving linked to hundreds of crashes, dozens of deaths

  • Given the number of other issues in the post I'm going to guess it was hurried and autocorrected wrong. Happens to me all the time.

  • Russia says US support for Ukraine will end as ‘humiliating fiasco’ like ‘Vietnam and Afghanistan’

    Jump

  • The difference is that Vietnam and Afghanistan were civil wars. It's very difficult to win a war when a sizable portion of the citizens are fighting against you. Ukraine seems to be very united against a common enemy: Russia.

  • The number of MPs who own investment properties means that this IS going directly to the source, but it's doing it in a manner that they can't fob off, ignore, or form a committee about.

  • If only the phone operating system allowed you to load applications from somewhere other than the official app store. Someone should make a phone that does that.

  • Chaos in Dubai as UAE records heaviest rainfall in 75 years

    Jump

  • Agreed. I dislike these countries because of who they are, not how they got rich.

  • Apple argues in favor of selling Macs with only 8GB of RAM

    Jump

  • My phone was manufactured in 2022, cost under USD250, and has 8gb of ram. New phones generally come with 12gb or more.

  • Netanyahu snaps back against growing US criticism after being accused of losing his way on Gaza, says Israel won't stop until 'total victory' is achieved

  • It's pestilence, but I think petulance actually suits Trump better

  • "Best" Mac browser: Your view

    Jump

  • Arc has really changed the way I expect a desktop browser to work now. It's kind of annoying when I go back to Firefox on my PC now.

  • "Best" Mac browser: Your view

    Jump

  • For Mac I use ARC browser. It's a bit different in UI than most browsers but it does some things I really like. It's heavily optimised for keyboard commands, and it has separate "spaces" which you can create and define (e.g. personal, work, etc).

  • A Chinese airline warned passengers not to throw coins into plane engines after an Airbus A350 was delayed for 4 hours

    Jump

  • Airports charge money to use the Skybridge. If you travel with cheap airlines then you'll often go to gates without bridges. It's actually amazing the things that airports charge for.

  • ‘We stand here as Jewish men who refute the Holocaust being hijacked’: Jonathan Glazer calls for end to Gaza attacks at Oscars

    Jump

  • Fortunately he doesn't have to worry too much about Hamas because he's not occupying their land.

  • The Oceans We Knew Are Already Gone

    Jump

  • The next best time was 29 years ago.

  • 9 dead, 78 others hospitalized after eating sea turtle meat on Zanzibar’s Pemba Island

    Jump

  • Ok, so there's a risk of death. If I'm on a desert island then I'll risk it, otherwise I'll avoid.

  • Israeli rabbi says ‘kill everyone in Gaza, including babies’

    Jump

  • I think it's time we start publicly shaming Israelis and Jews who don't make strong statements condemning the murder of civilians and protesting the reckless-at-best and seemingly genocidal actions of their government.

    Are you deliberately trying to use the same language as was used against Muslims 20 years ago?

  • Israeli rabbi says ‘kill everyone in Gaza, including babies’

    Jump

  • I mean, it's not out of character historically.

  • Online vape seller has ‘no intention of stopping’ shipments to Australia, despite nationwide ban — ‘We have no intention of stopping just because of one twat in Canberra.’

    Jump

  • In a true dichotomy they are the far better option. Unfortunately they were/are attracting new smokers. The rate of teenage smoking had been plummeting for decades and was only at a couple of percent - until vapes became popular and reversed about two decades of progress.

  • If you try to buy alcohol in Dan Murphys with kids then you'll get the third degree. If they're teenage kids then they won't sell to you. Meanwhile if I order online it gets delivered to my door and my postie just leaves it there.

  • Also cigarettes in Australia. They're not banned, obviously, they're just taxed so high that hardly anyone smokes them anymore. I'm probably a bit sheltered, but I'm genuinely surprised when I see someone smoking an actual cigarette now.
