totally agree. driver assists are huge for driver safety (probably saved my life when riding with people driving while tired, which was a bad choice on their part but a big part of the reason why it's so important to have them) and Elon trying to make autonomous driving a thing instead of improving the shit we already know is gonna cost lives

i think this is why i'm such a fan of driver assists - not so-called "autonomous" driving, but driver assists: they literally help you stay more aware of your surroundings (in your case, blind spot monitoring) so you can make better driving inputs. we should have them as standard by law on every new car, not whatever bullshit sci-fi stuff fElon is trying to get up to

when I was working in the residential ISP space some years ago during the FCC credits, we had some basic plans (25/3Mbit, 35/5Mbit) that were entirely or mostly covered by that discount program. it's by no means a flashy number but it gave thousands of our customers access to broadband, that most of them lost the ability to afford it as soon as the discount ended. go California, I hope this works out because it's super important for everyone to have broadband

I rode in a 2019 Subaru Ascent (like a big Outback) a few years ago, the lane keep assist was great even back then, not to mention the blind spot monitoring and all that. and it was all included. wtf is Tesla even doing with all that time and money??

yep - and if you all want to see the serious meat and potatoes of what we know about Israeli spyware, check out TheCitizenLab at the University of Toronto's recent write up exposing Israeli spyware campaigns.
