Google Maps

Edit: one interesting thing about their mobile app is when you use the GPS for directions, it changes where the audio comes from depending on what your next direction is. If your next is “turn left” then the instructions come from your left-side car audio.

I didn’t sound like a centralized system from the article. More like they want a third party like Verisign or something.

It’s going to be both. Bluesky will verify users, but they’re also going to have other authorized verification entities.

From what I’ve seen, there will be two distinct types of blue check- users verified by Bluesky will have one mark, and users verified by a trusted authority will have a different mark.

Now who will those third-party verifiers be, and how will they be selected, hasn’t been announced yet.

Right now, venture capital investments - same as all tech starts out.

How it’ll monetize to become self-sufficient remains to be seen.

It would absolutely not surprise me if Teslas calculate miles driven via GPS instead of tire rotation or some other mechanical means.

It’s the kind of “reinventing the wheel, only worse and more expensive” that Musk would do.

Given his track record with real rockets and real rocket scientists, I would consider it a win for him to make it off the launchpad and back in one piece. 😂

No, he cares for Twitter.

SpaceX lets him pretend he’s some great tech genius, but Twitter is what gives him the validation he craves. All the pro-Elon bots and stans there who fellate him feed his narcissistic desire to be loved.

That’s why he “sold” Twitter to xAI. So if Tesla does tank hard enough and he gets margin called, he can’t be forced to sell Twitter to cover it.

It’s been a minute, but off the top of my head:

• The story was ass.
• Not enough content for a “live service” game.
• Enemy levels scaled heavily with your gear level, so better gear didn’t make you feel any more powerful.
• The stats system for the gear was trash. Like, equipping one piece of high level gear and then keeping your starting gear for everything else was legitimately better than trying to get BiS for all of your gear.
• Gear had randomly generated buffs, and those might buff other gear. But sometimes it would you would get a drop for something your class could equip (not every class could use every weapon, for example) but with buffs to a weapon your class couldn’t use.
• For a game that was essentially “be Iron Man” they included an overheat mechanic so you couldn’t just fly wherever you wanted.

Anthem was a really great idea for a game that had an absolutely terrible execution.

Tesla could literally never sell another car again, and it wouldn’t matter as long as people continue to buy the stock.

It’s been wildly over priced for a very long time, so clearly the people who are keeping it afloat aren’t interested in whether the company is actually profitable or not.

This, exactly.

The whole point of CVE is to make sure everyone is on the same page regarding exploits. That necessitates a single point of truth for the whole operation.

Well this is just flat out wrong.

The fact that people started appending “Reddit” to their search terms to find answers to what they wanted to know would probably be a gigantic indicator that Google’s results without it were less than helpful.

A useful search engine returns the most relevant result the user wants as fast as possible. An advertising company wants its users to look at as many ads as they can for as long as they’ll tolerate them. Thus it’s apparent the goals of Google (the search engine) are diametrically opposed to the goals of Alphabet (the advertising company).

So yes, it’s in the best interest of Google’s bottom line to figure out how many ads they can show you (read: before you stop using Google altogether) until they show what might be relevant to you.

They said “useful,” they didn’t say “relevant.”

In this case, “useful” means “the most results we can get paid to show you without you going to a different website.”

Which is somehow still less ridiculous than tariffs on penguins.

The one that smells like a piece of Nazi shit.

Nick Fuentes did this last year when he assaulted a woman who knocked on his door.

Of course, it’s not hard to figure out what building is in-between numbers 1824 and 1828…

It’s most likely because Nintendo is going to use it as a launch title for Switch 2, so they can’t announce the release date of MP4 beforehand.

And that just goes to show:

The only time rich people are held accountable in the US, is when they fuck with other rich people’s money.

Once you have paid the Danegeld, you never get rid of the Dane.

And by “Danegeld” Kipling meant “bribe money” and by “Dane” he meant “the fat orange fascist fuck mob boss 77 million people were too goddamn stupid to realize should be in jail.”

Yeah, but we’re not talking about Amazon guy, we’re talking about Google guy.

Something about him is different, but I’m not white sure what it could be.

Is that Sam Reich in a penguin suit!?
