I do wish Immich would add some social features

You can talk about it, and I won’t stop you. But, much like all this AI nonsense, I’ve tried it many times and every single time it ends up being some sort of scam, so personally, I’m not willing to indulge it any further.

TIL: Aliens: Fireteam Elite 1 exists

They are succeeding in my area.

I’m very happy I built a PC between the crypto mining craze and COVID and AI scam…

I don’t know if spending unfathomable amounts of money buying up the entire global supply of computing products can be considered a “tool”.

I tried it. It’s really well-made but I just get gunned down and robbed every time I spawn into a game. Got real boring real fast. Seems like the devs overestimated the typical gamer.

Maybe learn how things work before going on a rant.

Traditional hydraulic systems already have independent wheel control. This is absolutely the opposite of “improved safety”. You’re relying entirely on a complex electrical system that can exhibit a wild myriad of errors that could result in death. And for what? What do you get in exchange?

Braking wastes energy by converting mechanical energy to heat.

There’s nothing in this article to suggest that these do not.

Brake wear and fail.

Most of all ones dependent on electronics.

There’s nothing here to suggest that there are no pads or rotors…

This is way more moving parts and cost and complexity. When it comes to safety and reliability you want things as simple as possible, and this is the opposite of that.

Games that cost $30 typically don’t have:

• Crazy intensive graphics that no one can run
• Performance-reducing DRM
• online-only requirements
• pop-up ads for microtransactions every 3 minutes
• required third party accounts and/or launchers
• Day 1 DLC

I’ll take $450 in my pocket every 6 years, thanks. The bigger savior is not having your wheels constantly caked in brake dust.

Brembo’s new “Sensify” braking system takes that one step further, eliminating the hydraulic system entirely and relying instead purely on electronic brake-by-wire and electric motors.

ok but…y tho?

That’s incorrect, leaving the platform is the best answer.

Secondarily there is alternative frontends like Stealth, Libreddit and Troddit.

Nah “we” made it complicated in the pursuit of money.

My car has voice commands but it can’t even do simple tasks like turning on the headlights or wipers, and requires an active internet connection to do anything at all, so yeah, its fuckin useless.

Meanwhile my phone can dictate entire paragraphs with no internet connection at all.

LOL I’m sure their investors believe them.

It sure does.

The block seemed curious, given that Reddit began as a website, and websites generally want traffic. Few are in the practice of turning traffic away.

My man hasn’t used the internet in a while…

The vast majority of social media platforms are in the practice of denying access in order to coerce you into logging in or downloading their app so that they can mine your data and harass you into coming back.

Some of that probably has to do with AI scraper bots as well.
