Of course it’ll be awhile before anything like that, this is just one engineering problem solved. But self driving within a confined space like a parking lot (especially a parking lot that doesn’t normally allow humans) is a lot easier to solve than the general case. I think you’d see adoption happen first with fleets of cars or buses, before it would become common place for just regular stuff.

Physical connections are really rough, they require millimeter precision, Tesla has been trying to do this for ages

Not having a cable unlocks some interesting potential. Right now an inconvenience of driving an EV is that the chargers may be full and inconsiderate people may leave their car plugged in for longer than needed. Take away the need to plug in and add some self driving and you could have your car automatically charge then move itself to a regular spot once it’s done. Could make a setup like this a lot more simple.

Yeah that’s a deal breaker for me too. But the flexible and non-full time hours could make it an attractive side hustle or student job. Good luck getting anyone senior though.

I think some of that stuff would be a lot more stressful if you expected the job to be a long term thing you need to support yourself with.

It doesn’t change the amount of jizz but the original count of grandparents is making the almost certainly false assumption that the family tree is incest free.

If Linux gets popular the mega corps will just follow them there and then you’ll be asking them to uninstall Dell os or at least remove the Linux recall (powered by bing) that it comes bundled with. Just look at the modern state of android.

Bats are the leading source of human rabies infection in North America. Agree they are adorable, but keep them at a distance.

He’s not a Pedophile unless he comes from the Pedo region of Epstein Island, otherwise he’s just sparkling child molester.

You kinda have to edit trump to get him to form a complete sentence.

I’ll take the coat from the left and the shorts from the right please.

Always forget.

On the left we have Baghdad Bob the Iraqi “Minister of Information” for Saddam Hussein, who made famously inaccurate and at times comical propaganda about the Iraq war. On the right is Karoline Leavitt the US “press secretary” for Donald Trump, who famously makes inaccurate and at times comical propaganda about the fall of the United States.

Biden giving people 1400 cheques to offset a huge natural global disaster

republicans: 🫷🤬

Trump giving people 2000 dollar cheques to make up for an emergency of his own creation

republicans:: 🥵

When I was in highschool 5% of math tests was in the presentation of the math, lining up your equal signs, not using × or ÷, putting units where appropriate and stuff like that.

Conversely if taken in an empty stomach it can have a delayed impact until you eat something.

He’s a “radical, Muslim” not a “radical muslim” :D

Can you imagine how great it would be if every class of item had to come in the same container. It would make reuse of those packages viable which would be way better than recycling ever could.

Plastic recycling really sucks, but paper recycling is usually a net positive and compost is such a no brainer I’m always shocked it isn’t everywhere.

🙈 uWu What if we kissed at the ICC 😶
