  • @MNByChoice @fpslem Yes, but the need for separation depends on the amount of traffic. The separation that low traffic areas get (paint) is ignored by pedestrians anyway and that probably leads to more collisions from cyclists expecting pedestrians in the cycle area to disappear. Without markings they are more likely to cycle around the pedestrians.

    High traffic needs clear separation (usually just give the road to the bikes, the existing footpath to pedestrians)

  • @LarmyOfLone @BR4 Safety aids can involve plenty of computing and getting those constantly improved can aid in keeping people alive.

    So there is some good reason to go that way. (But that may not be what is driving car companies to do it)

  • @Professorozone Yes that would be a bit silly (but could be useful to do for your SO when they have an issue while you are on a trip). But just from the top of a tall housing tower to a car in the basement needs something better than a RF fob

    The curfew alert could be more applicable when in another country.

  • @FireRetardant Also no one is implying network based should be the only method.

  • @MethodicalSpark But they may want to have it interact with some other hosted service they already pay for.

  • @FireRetardant @n2burns Remote start can mean different things. I'd hope a subscription based one was via a server and works where normal direct RF fobs wouldn't (like from another country).

    If it is just direct RF based remote start that shouldn't be a subscription.

  • @FlexibleToast @hexmhell Yes, but the car you own has all the capability to do the above things, why can't I use the server in my basement to provide the remote components of the services?

  • @Chobbes @Notmikey Walking 600m (as the crow flies) from my hotel in Sugarland Houston to the shopping district near it was sketchy as. Y'all are crazy hostile to people choosing to walk anywhere.

  • @grue @thantik Federated service instances need active and aggresive moderation to keep trolls under control.

    Monolithic services spend a lot of time and money on doing that.
