Jesus. This is pretty much why mine is setup like this lol. Smallish 1080p monitor top left, this has our security cameras on display. 4k 27" underneath that doubles as an extension to my work laptop during work hours, but it’s also connected to the primary pc. Main monitor is 27" 1440p 165hz gaming monitor. Far right is another 27" 1440p standard for general crap. They will all serve their own purpose while I’m sitting in the captains chair. Mostly it’s so I can watch movies/shows, game, use discord, and browse/ work on other stuff all at the same time.
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — California Gov. Gavin Newsom has vetoed a bill to require human drivers on board self-driving trucks, a measure that union leaders and truck drivers said would save hundreds of thousands of jobs in the state.
Can’t believe they bothered to try to pass it. From an outside quick glance, it seems like a brilliant idea. But then you have to remember WHY they’re doing this. They want to ship 24x7 and not have to pay a person. Slapping a co-pilot in there is counter-intuitive to their end game. Not to mention humans do NOT have the required attention span for this. We can often do stupid shit, completely sober, while driving, with DECADES of experience.
If the autopilot is even 80% effective, we’re going to get bored, sleep, read, fuck around on our devices. Maybe jerk off? Who knows?
We’re not ready for this step, not yet.
Bet they’ll be needing a lot of mechanics when the time comes, though.

So they’ve been doing this for better than 20 years. All that is going to happen, is they’ll be fined. That money will disappear into the pockets of the lawmakers and nothing will change.
Maybe they’ll be brought up again in a few years when another pack of goons need more cash to pretend like they’re regulating anything in favor of the people.
Yeah, but it’s marketing jargon to make it seem like less of a deal. When someone says “over half” do you immediately assume they’re talking in the 90% range, or closer to 60%?

Mannnn… I wish we had this in the U.S. Unfortunately it would ruin a lot of the propaganda forced down our throats, disabling some talking points for our dumbass politicians.
For me it held up pretty well, but I can have an obsessive quirk about new things I find interesting.
Everything hit for me with this show. The plot, the pacing, the acting, the music, the action. Even bits of comedy. I think Joel Kinnaman played a big part in why it was so enjoyable.

Yes, and I’ve noticed something very odd. There seems to be some sort of false engagement and fake upvotes going on for average users.
Normally I post a smart-ass comment, and either get ignored, or down-voted a couple times…
Ever since the API restrictions, it’s like no matter what I post, it gets a few upvotes very quickly. Some of these have mini explosions and gain a bit of traction.
I’m also seeing A LOT more activity on some of my other niche subs.
It just seems so fake and contrary to my prior 11 years of experience, makes no sense unless it is being bot driven.
I love my Credit Union. Been a victim of Wells Fargo in the past and it was delightful finally closing my accounts with them years ago. Haven’t looked back. Haven’t had any weird fees since.
Unfortunately, this still seems like a drop in the bucket vs. what they made off with.
If they had an equal amount of cameras pointing outward around the globe screen, they could project that and make active camouflage like The Predator uses.
