Australia, Canberra

Zero cost, 10 to 20 minute wait, no wait if my appointment is early in the day, 20 minutes if it’s in the afternoon

I use keepass, it’s a little more work than many closed source ones, but it’s only as online as you want it to be, and runs on anything

My “smart” bulbs are at the less online end of the spectrum, they host local wifi or bluetooth for configuration via their app, but even that can bite you

I added a wifi range extender to address the problem of stuff at one end of the house regularly losing connection and needed to point one of a particular brand at the new wifi

Its app hadn’t been updated and I needed to dig out my old phone stuck on an old version of Android to set the bulb up again

You lost a bit of credibility when you misspelt atoms

My reason is usually <>< or <^><

When I cycle on the road, that lane is mine

I only ride where it’s busy enough that a distracted driver can’t run me down

If you travel to a country that reads your phone (including the US, Australia) don’t take a phone that’s logged in to your social media accounts

Factory reset the phone, create a new Google or Apple account for it.

Leave them nothing to find. Feel free to log into your real accounts once you’re out of the airport

Remember there’s the neutral axis

Some are chaotic neutral. They’re not out to wreck stuff, they just don’t care if they do

They are forced by their housing being too far from the city centre to walk, and there are no viable alternatives to driving. No public transport, cycling is unsafe

Australians also need cars, but are less poor than Americans

I imagine the driver was startled and pressed the brake or turned the steering wheel, either of which will cancel FSD

That makes sense, Tesla use real driver data to train the cars. The cars ignore the traffic controls humans ignore, follows the rules humans follow

They try to fix bad behaviour, but I bet there haven’t been enough human driven Teslas illegally passing school buses and having a collision for Tesla to notice that FSD ignores a rule it shouldn’t

If you count a plastic tub you do

Something I recall from youth: expert - ex is a has-been, spurt is a drip under pressure; so an expert is a has-been drip under pressure

I don’t think it’s funny to me anymore, but had I ever seen anyone in that shirt it’d have been the funniest thing to say when I was 14

Sometimes it’s not good here. We only have 25 million people and we drive on the left, so we miss out on quite a few vehicles

It’s just marketing. Australia shares a lot of American culture and we still have car based utes, though larger vehicles are also becoming popular here

I had to turn off dark mode for this to work well

My normal dark mode is “AMOLED black”. I also tested it with dark grey and it also worked. Higher contrast with the image’s background works better

I’m glad you’re trying and I hope you get past your anger
