Don't be silly. Trump hasn't experienced any ethical decline.

You ask a stupid question. Try harder.

Nonsense. But you nicely show the stupidity of the average person here.

First, obviously a self-driving car comes with accountability. It just sits in a different place. And second, most humans cannot adapt to unusual situations either.

The bottom line is that self-driving cars already kill less people per distance driven than regular cars or are close to it. But I guess people like you are fine with people dying just so long you have not adjust to anything new.

Trump wanting something small and cheap? That must be a first in his life.

boils down to security and being able to punch through firewalls and NAT... Really there should be a protocol to solve this problem that is industry wide.

There is. It's called IP forwarding. Your router almost certainly supports it because without it and its auto-configuration friends UPnP and NAT-PMP you wouldn't be able to play lots of online games.

That's not the problem. The problem is, how do you tell your phone what your home IP address is? That also has standard solutions but ISPs don't like giving out static IPs and dynamic DNS requires that you have a domain name. Used to be you could get a free one, but those services seem to have died off so now it's $15 a year.

Like it or not the cloud is a necessity for anything that extends beyond a few meters from your home.

It's not a necessity, but it certainly makes it a lot easier.

There is a problem with things that are not a few meters from your home requiring cloud access though. Like a garage door opener. Optional cloud integration so you can control it remotely, fine, but the base functionality should be local. The problem with cloud stuff is that it's an ongoing expense. If you're not paying a subscription eventually the provider is not going to be able to keep it going.

Assuming you live in a society with property rights, you do in fact have the right to both buy and sell that property. Like all rights, it's not absolute and can be limited in special circumstances. Corporations are just legal mechanisms for multiple people to share certain of their individual rights, most prominently property rights.

Warner Brothers is heavily in debt and has been posting big losses since the beginning of 2022. Their financials certainly look like they're in dire straits.

The deal hasn't closed yet. US regulators will be looking at it pretty carefully.

There are five. DNA and RNA each have four but not the same four. RNA uses uracil instead of thymine. The basic five can be modified after the nucleic acid is formed, methylctosine being the most common.

There are also a bunch of other nucleotide bases that aren't normally incorporated in DNA or RNA, some of which have been found in space, and artificial ones we've engineered to fluoresce or kill cancer.

And that is actually the problem with this "story": Self-driving cars are held to a much higher standard. That is neither rational nor useful.

Delivering equipment to the 3rd Reich to aid in the killing of jews. Funny how history repeats itself.

You do realize where you are, do you? This is not a classroom and some basic understanding is required to play. You clearly lack that.

Don't be a (mentally) lazy fuck. There is a large body of literature on this question.

Indeed. The difference is that everything you assume (not believe) to be a fact needs to come with evidence and need do be falsifiable (i.e. evidence that proves it is wrong could be obtained if it is wrong). Obviously, you, personally, cannot verify everything. But you can verify some things and it is expected that you did, usually in school. The only assumption that you need to be able to make is that all the other facts were verified by somebody.

In contrast, with faith/belief, there is no verification. Nobody has ever successfully verified that God (which ever one) does exist. There are some plausibility arguments, but they are all weak and many are basically not even argument but just serve to confuse the question by adding complexity. None of these meet scientific standards. And that claim is not falsifiable either: You cannot disprove God exists. What ever proof you have, it would be limited, because in some dark corner of the universe, God could be hiding away, ignoring everybody. Hence "God exists" does not even need the requirements for a scientific claim, regardless of whether that statement is true or not. This is the reason why Atheists say things like "God does almost certainly not exists".

In short, you can "believe" scientific facts (or not), but in doing so you do not participate in Science and you are not using the scientific method. Any claim to Science being about belief is simply a direct lie though.

PLA is also not very durable. In hot and humid climate, PLA can decompose in a few months. PLA is, in some sense, a great prototyping material but not suitable for most other tasks.

Yep, that nicely sums it up.
