This is a post about people who don’t understand encryption.

That’s what, five people?

It’s a lot different when it’s thousands and thousands

Debt is a concept not a physical thing, there isn’t anything intrinsic about it that must make it transfer to others.

If I’m ok with forgiving $5 they my friend owes me for lunch, that doesn’t make the debt mysteriously transfer to a 3rd party.

Also, airplanes have spoilers!

Hopefully the TVs don’t won’t require that connection to operate.

Or they are used because of the ability to be bypassed, e.g. japanese porn censorship

What was stupid, really.

Maybe I just didn’t phrase something exactly how you wanted but the conversation was basically.

‘i think ai can do a good job at subtitles’

‘no it can’t, because translations are nuanced’

‘i meant subtitles in the context of captions, not translations’

I think it’s a fair misunderstanding and I felt that I did a fine enough job clarifying when it was presented, but I guess not.

I mean sure, whatever.

I meant subtitles and I stand by subtitles. But I’ll be sure in the future to say ‘open captions of the language in the audio stream’ so that you don’t get offended.

Understand that it didn’t need to be an argument and there wasn’t really much of a reason to be defensive.

I stated something, it got muddied in the context, I clarified within the context of the conversation, and now you are mad. Contextually I would have been wrong before it was very much clarified.

If your point is about translations, I never made a claim about them, I don’t have an opinion one way or the other. I also think it’s helpful to understand the community you are in, which is not an anime focused one.

Additionally I often watch anime with English dubs and subtitles, is that not an equally valid scenario? I understand that colloquially the term can be used to mean translation, but the conversation is broader than niche insider discussion.

And finally, I really think I made myself very clear after an initial confusion, so I don’t really even get what’s happening here.

Edit: also, the conversational word is pretty firmly ‘subs’. I would say specifying the whole word actually indicates that it isn’t the colloquial usage, but I get that that doesn’t really matter.

Translation or subtitles?

Maybe I should have been hyper specific and say open captions.

But that is a localization / translation, not a subtitle.

Translating between languages is different than open captions for a given audio stream.

Ai actually does pretty decent on subtitles, there isn’t a lot of wiggle room and you don’t need need as much creativity.

Where it shines is in first drafts though, it’s much faster to proofread and correct, than to type it out to begin with.

Also, it’s not like the paperwork isn’t important.

It’s pretty common for wealthy people to trade in their car every year or two, keeping in mind that a cyber truck is 80k+ the demographic is people who can afford to always have a new car.

Having to make a ton of insurance claims is not a good thing.

Eventually you become uninsurable, which is a lot harder to overcome than a sales slump.

I completely disagree.

You are using the hand brake as an example. 95 percent of people (including you, evidently) don’t even understand that the handbrake is not an emergency brake, they don’t get how the behavior works, or the fact that it’s meant to be used as a parking brake, I consistently see people slam their parking pawls verytime they get out of their car. (Not to mention that it doesn’t even work while you are driving on most modern cars and has no modulation, as it’s just a button)

If not being an idiot was good enough to drive a car, then it wouldn’t be so deadly. It’s also possible to fly a plane with common sense, but you wouldn’t be happy if your pilot told you they don’t have training.

Driving isn’t easy, it’s just that we accept an absolutely catastrophic amount of accidents as a cost of doing business.

I find the scariest people on the road to be the arrogant ones that think they make no mistakes.

I would t consider anyone who hasn’t done at least a dozen track days, experienced several different extreme scenarios (over/under steer, looping, wet grass at speed, airtime (or at least one or more wheels off the ground), high speed swerving, snap oversteer, losing systems, like brakes, engine, or the steering wheel lock engaging, etc) to be remotely prepared to handle a car going more than 25 or so mph. An extreme minority of drivers are actually prepared to handle an incoming collision in order to fully mitigate a situation. And that is only covering the mechanical skill of piloting the car, it doesn’t even touch in the theoretical and practical knowledge (rules of the road, including obscure and unenforced rules) and it definitely doesn’t even broach the discipline that is required to actually put it all together.

If you a driver has never been trained, or even have an understanding of what will happen in an extreme scenario in a car, how could we consider them trained or sufficiently skilled.

We don’t let pilots fly without spending time in a simulator, going over emergency scenarios and being prepared for when things go sideways. You can’t become an airline pilot if you don’t know what happens when you lose power.

We let sub par people drive because restricting it too much would be seen as discrimination, but the overwhelming majority of people are ill equipped to actually drive.

I don’t particularly care about what your position is, was just commenting on your debate technique.

I get your sentiment, but I think this is a bit of a straw man.

Their argument isn’t that dealerships are small businesses, but that your position also affects small businesses.

The United States operates on what is called a common law system.

Generally rulings about what can and can’t be done are decided with court cases and upheld with precedent.

This is a fundamental aspect of how the system works, if any one person doesn’t believe that laws are being enforced properly or that laws themselves are against the ideology of the country, they have the right and the ability to challenge it.

It’s not really relevant to Elon musk in particular, anyone, including regular people can and have challenged existing case law to change (or create) both federal and state rulings.

Don’t gaslight me. The games you play may work fine, but the games I play don’t always. And the games I play are almost exclusively single player small scale indie games. I play games on Linux just about every day, exclusively. My experience is that, while serviceable it’s just strictly not on par, as you claim. Though you contradict yourself anyway by hand waving games that don’t work.

I don’t understand the need that people have to pretend like it’s all perfect. Attitude like yours is toxic, diminishing the experience of others in order to pretend like there are not any issues, trying to put the onus on the user for playing the wrong games or not conforming to the idea that proton is a perfect solution.
