Comment Patient probably was going to die regardless (Score 4, Informative) 75

While not defending Cruise, the report states that the patient had a GCS score of 3 (the lowest you can get), agonal respirations, no peripheral pulse, and massive bleeding from the leg (Police had to tourniquet it),

The GCS score indicates this person likely had massive brain injuries, and the other information is indicative of massive hemorrhage and hypotensive shock.

This patient had virtually no chance of survival given the injuries. That said, I'm sure its only a matter of time before one of these automated vehicles DOES directly get someone killed.

Comment Sorry Google, but my browser, my rules, not yours (Score 2) 243

With the amount of ad servers that get compromised and serve out malware, blocking ads isn't just reducing annoyances, its basic system security.

Further, its up to me what system resources and bandwidth get used for. If I don't want to waste resources for crappy ads that only annoy me and get in the way, that's my right to refuse them at a client level or redirect them to /dev/null.

Comment Not the least bit surprised (Score 1) 32

20+ years ago (2000), my senior project for my undergraduate degree was rebuilding the entire network and server infrastructure for a high school that is a part of LAUSD.

It was a complete disaster before my team rebuilt everything (2 Windows NT DHCP servers that were conflicting with each other, a file server that was being run on Windows 98, etc ).

I have no doubt LAUSD is just as incompetent now IT wise as they were back then.
