I want the move to tell me a fascinating story that would be hard to convey as pure text. But I concede that others may want something different from the experience.
I hate it when I'm backing away from danger into some tall grass and my car gets all dirty. Oh wait that's happened exactly never outside of movies. And surely there will be an override button for the foreseeable future. If for no other reason that you will need it while backing a trailer for quite some time until the trailers start having to have secondary cameras and a standardized connector.
When somebody is too close in the rear, the correct action is just to let off of the gas. Slow down enough and their short distance will be the recommended safe distance for the speed you are traveling.
Nobody is worried about you reversing and denting a car. We mandated backup cameras because you can't see small children behind the vehicle. If you reverse over a child, they will usually die and it doesn't matter whose fault it is, you've still got a tragedy. So at the expense of not letting some people feel like superior human beings based on their supposed skills backing up a vehicle, we put in a camera and a sensor that reduces human carnage.
I've had backup sonar for a decade and been in all kinds of climate. Never been a "condition" in which it didn't work except having a trailer behind the vehicle.
No idea how this got modded up. They said rearview cameras and sensors. A camera can't determine depth. Most backup sensors are sonar and unless the car is filthy they don't seem to be impacted. You have a camera for the driver to see better so that hopefully they apply the brakes themselves. But if not, a secondary sensor will determine that you're too close to something and do it for you. Is +1 Poor Reading Comprehension a new moderation?
All of the posts on here are about the technical aspects of shooting with a phone. (Mount it like you would a normal camera and other than lower resolution it should work about the same). But a good movie doesn't need great camera effects (just enough to not make you feel nauseous from the shaking). If the movie is truly good, you don't even need the dialog. Less focus on "production" values and more on storytelling seems refreshing.
They have people who are paid to work on this stuff. And they have people who are paid to do other jobs. If you're paid to write software but you're spending your time championing diversity, you aren't doing the job you were hired/paid to do. If you want to do that kind of work, apply to transfer to the diversity department or whatever it's called. I read one of the articles on this and the particular employee was warned about spending too much time on social activism prior to getting fired.
And there is at least some truth to this. Occasionally a rearview mirror will fall off if they are held on with adhesive. I've never seen a side mirror spontaneously break, though. You have to have a collision. Although looking at the number of broken side mirrors out there, people sure do have a propensity for whacking into things with them.
This should have gotten a -1 Misinformed. It's illegal in the US for foreign actors to provide campaign contributions, collude with a campaign, and a host of other activities. This was passed in response to Chinese support for Bill Clinton, I believe. Individual Russians trolling on FB wouldn't be a crime but when they start purchasing paid advertisements and coordinating with the campaigns, it's a serious crime. Maybe it shouldn't be, but it is. The reason that this is a hot button item is, of course, that the Democrats tend to put forth foreign policy much more friendly to the rest of the world. So normally this interference would happen on a Democrat's behalf. The Republicans are now walking a tightrope. Ignore the Trump campaign's behavior and risk having the rest of the world support his opponent more openly. Don't ignore it and get caught red handed.
Well if they aren't willing to directly pay money for the features and they're not willing to provide telemetry data, seems reasonable that no company would pay any attention to their wishes!
By "mess up" you mean drop features that a small number of "power users" use (whatever that means) in favor of features that a large number of "normal" users use? Seems like something way more useful. If these "power users" really want certain features, they should make it know that they use them... by not opting out of their opportunity to do so. Otherwise, given what most people pay for Ubuntu, I'd say they seem to be making fairly good decisions here.
And if you buy something on Amazon or eBay or Craigslist and it turns out to be shit or faulty or fraudulent you want them to pay up too, right?
You cite three grossly different examples. If I buy something from Amazon, I expect Amazon to make me whole if something goes wrong. eBay and Craigslist are a bit different since, in those cases, they clearly aren't the sellers. Amazon muddies the waters a bit with "third party" sellers. But certainly if Amazon is the seller, they are on the hook. And Steam is the seller here. They just happen to get the game that they're selling from a third-party. It's more like Amazon than eBay so yes they should service the sale.
Right but Valve also has a contract with the customer who purchased the game. A default by the customer doesn't relieve them of any obligations to the game publisher and vice versa.
Congratulations on your +4 and I hope you get to +5. Even "high load" applications generally have very brief periods of CPU idle time. Maybe they are waiting for a page swap or to write out the result of some calculation to disk. If the CPU power manager sees 100ms of idle time, what should it do? Seems reasonable to cut the clock down as, for many (most) workloads, this would indicate that the CPU-bound portion is over. If CPU demand picks up, you can pick up the pace again. But how many ms of load do you need to see in order to decide that this is another high-workload period? For almost everything that normal people do, the latency to pick the clock rate back up when CPU demand rises is immeasurably small. For those specific situations where it would make a difference, it's not possible to tell the power manager to never slow the CPU even if completely idle for decades. The actual use for this is probably close to zero but you'll probably see people turn it on for the same reasons you see giant wings strapped to the back of 90 horsepower sedans.
30% of take home pay is not nearly as much as 30% of gross pay. I have no idea why these things are measured in gross pay. I live in FL where 30% of my gross pay might be tolerable to pay. In CA, 30% of your gross pay may be 80% of your net pay.
Yes many library cards include digital versions of books. This question seems like it was an attempt at snark rather than trying to find out information. Because even a cursory search would have answered this. Yes you might have to pay your outstanding fines first.
The NYT has plenty of problems and, yes, there is clearly an unfortunate bias. But it's very easy to read through and still have some idea what's going on in the world. I just looked at the NYT web site (I'm also a subscriber). Do I like headlines like "Citizen question on census will be bad for your health." Of course not. But it's not too hard to figure out that there is debate about whether the question has been proposed (it has) and whether that will affect all of the things we use the census for (including healthcare). "Trump lawyer says he paid porn star out of his own pocket." Well, he said that in a filing with the FEC so yeah I'm pretty sure that's accurate.

And in this case you could limit the backup speed to something below normal idle speed.

I wish I could mod this up. Being homogenous really doesn't make sense at all if you ave availability requirements.

A 7" tablet is way better for reading on the train. It's hard to open up a newspaper without invading your neighbors' personal space.

Have you seen meth addicts? I don't think they are spending any money on Oxy skin care. Oh wait you meant Oxycontin, nevermind.
