Today’s “FSD” has its limitations and requires supervision, but your description of it is not anything like my experience even on a HW3 vehicle. In fact, in many years of using Autopilot and various “FSD Beta” and “FSD (Supervised)” version

They collect video, not images, along with other sensor and control data. It’s not a sunk cost fallacy, it’s a technical strategy that is very logical and showing compelling results (though as of yet unproven for achieving robust L3 or L4 a

Driving over a double yellow is expected and legal in normal driving, such as when making a left turn or going around an obstruction. In this example it looks like it oscillated between two different routing choices (turning left and going

They used it on test mules to create labeled training data for their older monocular depth / Occupancy Network models (which they still use as part of the supervisory policy enforcement and active safety layer, alongside the end-to-end

Tesla’s revenues and profits are down for one reason and one reason only: Musk has personally alienated a large swath of the customer base.

That’s both untrue and missing the point. In a perfect world, AV software wouldn’t be necessary. We don’t live in a perfect world. So we need defense-in-depth, covering prevention, mitigation, and remediation.

How is it meaningfully different with respect to this question? If I go to a museum and look at a bunch of modern paintings, then go home and paint something new but “in the style of”, this is well-established as within my rights, regardles

You might consider that your needs are not representative of the overall Windows population. For example, one reason some of these key combinations are important is for accessibility.

You are confusing two different things. The problem is one factor account recovery, because it means you have one factor auth.

How so? By which I mean... I think that doesn't make any sense but please elaborate.

Further, it's not an ad hominem to insult somebody while arguing with them. It's only an ad hominem if the insult is the basis of your argument.

That sounds more like a Linux problem than an Electron/JS problem ;-)

This is not an accurate way to measure the size of Windows as most of those folders contain no files, just hard links. There is no reason for you to have to worry about deleting "defunct system files", the OS handles this just fin

There should always be a prompt. There should never be reverted settings or reinstalled applications. Are you on Insider builds? If so, you should expect more aggressive updates and bugs.

Reboots are usually required for monthly "patch Tuesday" updates, though sometimes they are not. Out-of-band updates are rare but do happen in the event of a critical, urgent security update. The OS only sets a deadline for the re

This is incorrect. The programmed pinned apps in the current releases of Win10 are only applied to new installs or when upgrading from Win7 or 8.x. They are never applied during Win10 updates (unless there's a bug of course). The entir

Putting a couple ads in free games in the App Store is not "screwing over people". Nor is it "anti-consumer". In fact, the whole point isn't even to make money from them, but to support the Windows developer ecosyst

This is in fact untrue. You would not have needed a new license for a replacement motherboard if that really happened. At worst you might need to make a phone call to MS, though even that is an unusual case.

Better how? You definitely get way better scrolling and zooming under Windows.

I'm 99% sure those apps do not have "live tiles" until you run them at least once (and many of those default pinned apps, which change over time and depend on Edition, are not actually installed until you first click on them)

I think you missed the key points: 1) Skype allegedly did this before MS acquired them. 2) MS never shares any private user data without a legal court order compelling them to. 3) Everything here applied to Apple, Google, and others. This

Yeah, and that Subtext blog service he's using doesn't handle the error very well (and looks like the whole thing is in debug mode).

Ah I see.

Conspiracy theories don't make good arguments. MS has been one of the most vocal and active in pushing for limits on and public disclosure of government subpoenas for user information.

Wait, are you complaining that an app you used and had pinned to Start put an image you didn't like there? Why not unpin or uninstall the app?

The apps and games you mentioned aren't part of the OS. And remember, Windows 10 was free if you got it in the first year.

@lotsofpulp LOL. Windows is not 50GB, the full install ISO supporting all editions is 3.5GB, and installed it takes roughly twice that (varies a bit by edition and optional components you install). By default it helps conserve bandwidth b

@konrad As is often the case there's a hint of truth but overall it's misleading. They're not talking about the old-school Win32 games, but rather the new Xbox Live-enabled games which are free-to-play and offer a bunch of pr
