Your question is self evidently loaded with "think of the children" guilt generation attempt.

So answer obviously hinges on "how much are we willing to sacrifice so that people like you feel less guilt when they think of the children".

The question I asked is actually THE answer to your question. But being someone who operates on totalized morality, you have problems grasping that.

Except it doesn't. Insurance companies have looked at this and it has reduced the rate of claims overall (both major and minor) to the point where they were the ones lobbying the governments to mandate the feature.

AEB has been a common feature of cars for over a decade. Some car companies haven't produced a car for years which didn't have AEB. In the EU it's been mandated for 2 years already on new cars. Fender benders aren't increasing. There's no data to backup your claim.

There are already bots that attempt to provide summaries to longer posts on X. It's a bit hit or miss, so they're not very popular. Most just use the unroll bots that unroll long twitter threads into a single post/page.

I would imagine Meta is going to be way more pissed about naming overlap with instagram stories.

Stupid analysis. All cars already have 3 of the things you list (required by mandates for ABS), most cars already have the 4th (forward facing sensors for parking). Critically a majority of cars sold right now already have the AEB in the USA, and several manufacturers don't even offer models without it, so you can't add $1k (over estimated by a factor of at least 10 by you) to the number of cars on the road, but instead only the few models currently sold missing the feature.

Please don't ever use numbers again. They aren't your forte.

A statement said by all horrible drivers.

AEB is a mandated feature on all cause sold in Europe and has been for a couple of years. It was a feature of 25% of new cars sold over a decade ago meaning that right now there's more than 25% of cars on the road that has it.

It isn't causing accidents. It's actively preventing them. The data from literally everyone regardless of which country, regardless of whether it was government, university, or private (insurance companies), all agree it causes a net reduction in accidents.

Do everyone a favour and don't drive with a seatbelt. At least then you'll kill yourself and we won't need to deal with yet another idiot on the road who thinks they are better than the safety features of their car.

Actually yes. Survivorship bias is precisely the act of using self referential anecdotal evidence. For it to not be survivorship bias the anecdote needs to explore data beyond ones self.

And? Back off a bit. If you're trying to keep close enough to prevent a car merging in front of your, you're not only driving dangerously, but you're also actively contributing to a jam in traffic caused by cars unable to merge freely.

Please stay in America, in many other countries you'll be very quickly pulled over and fined for your idea of highway driving.

They don't. That is one of the chief complaints about adaptive cruise control systems by people - they leave too much of a gap causing other people to pull into the gap... you know... like you're supposed to.

Nope, that is horseshit. There's more than enough road. In fact when roads back up due to traffic one of the biggest reasons for it is that people aren't maintaining enough following distance to allow cars to merge freely. The more space you have between cars the faster you can safely move on the road in question which also means the higher the road capacity. Many cars moving slowly, or few cars moving quickly results in the same road capacity.

Something like 25% of cars have had AEB... 10 years ago based on a quick search which started showing results from 2014. It has been mandated for all new model cars in the EU for 2 years already (and starting this year, every new car sold regardless of when the model was designed). Several manufacturers already do not make a single model without AEB.

You are not talking about AEB. You're talking about a driver assist feature that keeps a following distance. Most people will drive having never had AEB activate. AEB slams on the brakes very hard at the last minute and is a feature of cars even without cruise control or following assist. Also when AEB comes on you will get a big warning flash up in your car that it activated.

You're like a person who had a common cold confusing it with influenza. If you've had the latter you would recognize how silly it is comparing it to the former.

No they don't. They just insist that Americans invented and perfected black slavery in America. Why do they not acknowledge European slavery? To answer that ask yourself why would BLM give a flying fuck about what happened in Greece 2000 years ago which is completely and utterly irrelevant to slavery in America?

Jesus objectively existed, virtually all historians agree on this. More likely was that he wasn't some high class scholar who could read and write. What is a work of fiction is the things he did, except for his crucifixion, there's multiple sources to indicate that actually happened. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

No not like Ubisoft. Ubisoft do not let you buy and play a game for hundreds of hours only to force you to link the account several months later. The deal was known up front, from the first time you launched the game (and critically within the refund window).

Also Ubisoft accounts are generally widely available. Steam just pulled this game from 170 countries due to the game no longer being playable there due to lack of PSN access.

No it was not listed as a requirement. Steam lists on the page all accounts linkable for any game. A requirement is shown with a dedicated special warning on the right pane with a yellow highlight, an optional account doesn't show the yellow highlight.

But in any case, one of my points has been handled by Valve playing the socially responsible group. They are ignoring all refund restrictions. They have pulled the game from 170 countries where PSN isn't available and are offering refunds beyond the normal 2h play restriction.
