Where did I say drunk drivers shouldn't use this technology? All I said was that I don't want to use technology that may get me into an accident, which I think is a perfectly reasonable stance. Especially until the day that insurance is paid for entirely by the technology company in question and not myself.
I"d say at the least the onus is on them to guarantee that it will never create an accident in a situation that I, as an individual, would be able to deal with. And that should go for anyone buying an automated vehicle.
Most thieves just want to break open the door, grab a TV and run out. I know someone this happened to while she was in her back yard. Knowing exactly how your house is laid out before hand will help them immensely. Sure thre are thieves that are after jewelry but that's not necessarily the kind of thief we're talking about here.
Wow that's quite a sweeping generality you're making there. You don't think people in modest houses and with modest cars ever buy nice electronics? I know in the area I live in, we all have generally same sized houses and same cars but some people have put their money into nice TVs/game consoles/stereos and some haven't. Furthermore, some people have alarm systems and some don't, also something that will become evident to the Amazon delivery guy.
None of this prevents the Amazon delivery guy from telling his buddies which houses have good stuff to steal. Thieves can come back months later without any connection to Amazon whatsoever. Sure they could throw a brick through a window on any house but why risk attracting them to yours?
After trying to use linux for a nice 10-foot viewing environment for years, and dealing with codec issues, and screen tearing, hardware compatibility, third party launcher glitches, and most recently inability to view Netflix and no HEVC acceleration I bought a couple android boxes for $200 and they do exactly what I want. So, yeah, I can understand how linux has fizzled. I still use linux for some tasks/development but not nearly as much as I used to.
I thought Pandora was really spectacular at making playlists. I would set some qualities and it would make some surprising picks; a country music artist that did a cover of a song I like even though I don't like country music, that sort of thing. But yeah their library didn't seem to be extensive enough and it always seemed like the playlist algorithm could be awesome if it just kept doing new obscure picks instead of same repeats.
I've tried OwnCloud and SeaFile but both of them seem to have trouble with directories with open files. Seafile was a bit better but ends up with conflicts it can't deal with even when I am the only user of the directory from one location at a time.
EVs are not yet convenient enough to be a working man's vehicle. Many of these people live in apartments or dense housing where charging is difficult or impossible.
Maybe if you're a professional poker player. If you're not, you are waaay overthinking it. You sound like you might be the type of worker that I stay at home to get away from.
My XBox 360 still works. The kids still have fun with it. News to me that it is obsolete. I generally consider something obsolete when it doesn't work any more.

Sure that's unacceptable. Why would I want a technology that will get me into an accident? Why would anyone want that?
So it's going to stop for a large garbage bag blowing in the wind then? Wonderful.
Some humans that may decide to use an automated vehicle are. That's all that matters.

...until the moment that you invite them into your home and become a target. My point exactly.

Last one I tried was Kubuntu 17, downloaded a few months ago and it had the same problems.
This article is about 'desktop linux' which does not include Android.

We're talking about the same thing. A result of having not enough music selection to bridge the gap between the two types.

Ah the Apple fan, always willing to buy something else to solve a problem that shouldn't have been there in the first place.
I've tried OwnCloud and SeaFile but both of them seem to have trouble with directories with open files. Seafile was a bit better but ends up with conflicts it can't deal with even when I am the only user of the directory from one location at a time.
But you can't charge at the same time, so lets call it a 'handicapped' headphone jack.
How many macos targeted applications work on linux?
It's still a phone to me, like every other phone.
What's the difference? It still means someone else needs to pay more for the roads I drive on.
EVs are not yet convenient enough to be a working man's vehicle. Many of these people live in apartments or dense housing where charging is difficult or impossible.
I'm not comfortable buying something that involves a handout from people that probably need the money better than I do anyway.
I can focus on conversation and shaking hands OR my work. Not both.
