That’s a low bar when you consider how stringent airline safety is in comparison, and that kills way less people than driving does. If sensors can save people’s lives, then knowingly not including them for profit is intentionally malicious.
“I’ll bet you wouldn’t say that joke about Muslims or Jews”. The joke they actually have in mind:
Air travel is generally safer than driving too, but every accident is studied thoroughly. Self-driving is fine, but anyone trying to implement it should be held to a high standard. Boeing slacked off and they’re facing some backlash.
“10 times safer than human drivers”, (except during specific visually difficult conditions which we knowingly can prevent but won’t because it’s 10 times safer than human drivers). In software, if we have replicable conditions that cause the program to fail, we fix those, even though the bug probably won’t kill anyone.
I was hoping after the graphical upgrade with Morrowind that they’d bring back interesting mechanics from Daggerfall, but they went the complete opposite direction for the money.
I’m glad some of them chose not to be enablers after Starfield.
In my daily experience, the voice becomes choppy when a screen is being shared. It’s the worst out of what I’ve used in the past.
The alternative I was talking about are called employee brains.
There exists an alternative that uses a lot less power. And also that power is going to get spent no matter what anyway.
When you think about it, every sarcastic comment you make on Reddit now makes Google better. Reddit is too corporate, but who wouldn’t want to spread seriously good information on Reddit, to be picked up by the google machine? People need to know about the benefits of eating a little piece of rock a day.
You never hear rumors of them just taking a break. It’s always some distraction happening that are almost always never true.
In the past few years, my workplace has used Webex, Zoom and Teams. I definitely hate that we’re using Teams now because the others are better when it comes to meetings. Teams is unusable for me half the time while the others just worked. Lag spike during the call? Now the microphone doesn’t work. Or it will work but no one can understand you while you talk.
In my work machine, mine has a special feature when someone shares their screen during a call and you go full-screen - the extreme audio lag feature.

Now, instead of debugging the code, you have to debug the data. Sounds worse.
Teams started out okay. But the recent update made it worse. The microphone constantly disconnects now. Earlier today I lost sound completely just when I was being asked to talk. And the sound starts to get choppy during screen shares. I rarely had these issues with Webex and Zoom. So it’s not even more compatible with their own software. EU doesn’t have anything to worry about. /s
This place is not only for people wanting to get away from Reddit because of their poor policies. This apparently is also a place for people who got away from reddit because they have shitty opinions that weren’t tolerated even there.
On the contrary, there are more posts here that shill for MS too, than on Reddit. But that’s probably because of too much Linux.
Happened to me on a recent Windows update too. A popup about Game Pass and a Bethesda game I’m no longer buying.
Being safer than humans is a decent starting point, but safety should be maximized to the best of a machine’s capability, even if it means adding a sensor or two. Keeping screws loose on a Boeing airplane still makes the plane safer than driving, so Boeing should not be made to take responsibility.
