Both of my cars have a button to deactivate the sensors temporarily for exactly this reason. I know the Cybertruck doesnโt have buttons but it feels like it would be easy to have in the UI.
My Ioniq 5 knows itโs in a tunnel and turns on recirculate, maybe the Cybertruck could detect itโs in a carwash automatically?
@RebeccaSlatkin the California DMV calculates your expiration date by taking your expiration date and adding 5 to the year component
If your expiration date is 2/29, problem.
It took weeks of escalation but finally they figured it out. Solution was to change my birth date to 2/28, then change my expiration date to match, then add 5 years to it, then change my birth date back.
@TechTangents@thomasfuchs and even if you do, some people are still going to be mad about it. In this situation, particularly those who equate criticism of a certain government with religious bigotry (and Iโll admit as an atheist I do not understand why this can possibly occur; maybe itโs like how the emperor of Japan was also the highest ranking religious entity?).
Cathode Ray Dude just trolls people with his set, and that seems to not be as bad to deal with.
@thomasfuchs Iโll admit that the response to Meta here has made me less optimistic about implementing ActivityPub on the Amazon subsidiary I work forโฆ but I also recognize that if my racist relatives end up here talking about their recipes involving horse paste or 5G neurotransmitters, thatโs a big problem.
Idk enough about Mastodon the software to know if the problem is really just inadequate moderation tools. The protocol would allow you to drop messages without banning the instance.
@thomasfuchs theoretically a Bayesian filter on content on Threads would be sufficient, if Mastodon-the-software had a way for users to provide such feedback to the instance.
Re: ringing the alarm bellโฆ I am sure that is already happening. The question is whether VPs are hearing it and take some kind of action, and I donโt know they will. Hopefully they will.
