Games will disable it during play, just as they do for the windows key

People joke that the editor Emacs' name is an acronym for Edit Meta Alt Ctrl Super (all the modifiers but Shift on a very complex keyboard of the past) since it uses modified keystrokes for most of its functions, though really only Ctrl and Meta

I think they were typing on their phone. The error looks more like autocorrect than a keyboard typo

Many Linux laptops are also sold with windows

Also some people are afraid of people of the other gender hearing them shit

In the context of drinks it means to drink the drink quickly. I try not to quaff my beer as I want to enjoy its flavour

Quaffing a pint would be emptying a glass of beer like an Australian on a hot day

You could Google your best boy question easily.

Tesla say it crashes enough to deploy an airbag about one fifth as often as human drivers (once per 3,200,000 miles versus once per 600,000)

So safer than the average driver, presumably less safe than a safe driver

About 1 in 5, though recent changes to price and the widening of the full self driving beta will have changed that since the stats were released in 2022

That's all the people who were asleep on the highway or driving at very high speed in town

The recent versions don't allow either of those behaviours now, so those crashes aren't happening anymore.

Full self driving doesn't do that

And the deaths I'm interested in are these ones being caused by FSD, not lane keeping and cruise control. Loads of brands do lane keeping and cruise control and implement it no better than Tesla

Australian rules are (we keep left and go clockwise around roundabouts)

• If turning left, indicate left throughout the entry and exit
• If turning right, indicate right, indicate left after the exit before the one you are using
• If going straight ahead don't indicate on entry, indicate left after the exit before the one you're taking

I'm sure most people follow the rules, but I see a lot who indicate wrong, and the drivers of the various premium brands don't indicate at all ever

I think you're right. People in this thread are forgetting that this steering yoke doesn't have anywhere to put your hands other than right next to the buttons

A driving instructor saying "I couldn't use this on my first go" isn't a fatal argument for the control

Sure a stick is probably superior, but I bet you could build muscle memory on a wheel that works like a race car's

That's law across the whole country

It regularly kills people

Could you link an article saying so? I couldn't find anything with a quick google search about people being killed by Tesla FSD

Edit to add: this fairly recent article https://insideevs.com/news/655983/tesla-full-self-driving-beta-crash-stats-revealed/ says they're pretty safe.

The point of the article is to say "new Tesla indicator controls are bad and unsafe"

Where I have driven the chargers are always in the furthest corner of the carpark

I'm 46 and have never used a cheque

You and I can choose our tools as the best for our use case and for the good of the internet in general, but our non-tech friends can't.

I convinced a friend to use KeePass, but he wouldn't spend the time to learn it. I now tell him and others like him to just use Chrome's suggested password.

Yes, one of those "confirm it's you" emails. They're less intrusive than regular 2FA, and are only needed when a user logs in from a machine without the right cookie
