It's still a new code base and one that can access hardware so it's understandable that people would be nervous.

At the very least it should probably be something that has to be enabled in settings. And maybe it does I haven't looked into it. There are too many examples of security vulnerabilities that can bypass permissions. That's what the grandparents is worried about

The ads I have seen say "only in cinemas". Is that no the case?

From an immediate switch is billionaires want to be in control of the energy supply so they are slowing the transition in order to make sure that they control the solar farms and the wind farms and you have to go to them to get electricity still just like you did when they controlled the coal mines and the oil wells. This is acceptable because the alternative is to make energy production publicly owned and people really really really really hate public utilities and the concept of just having something that we all benefit from. It doesn't feel Fair because they can't own it.

Also it's hard to explain to people that just because you won't let Elon Musk own the electric grid doesn't mean somebody is going to snatch your car and your toothbrush... It's really hard to get people to grasp any level of nuance. It doesn't help that 60% of them read at the level of a 12-year-old...

I think they are expecting it to dry more on streaming, and just want the prestige of it being a "real" movie, not a made for TV one. No need to spend money on ads, it costs nothing to promote in the app when the time comes.

Being put in the theaters. They did this with the Star wars 3D cartoon back in the day. The one with a young ahsoka.

Basically it's streaming content they're putting in the theaters. It wasn't so bad when they did it with Ahsoka because they made kind of a fun event and did stuff like got the guys who dress up as Stormtroopers to show up at movie theaters. This one seems kind of cheap like they're not putting anything behind it... It feels like the windows millennium of Star wars releases where they just wanted something in the theaters so the public doesn't forget that Star wars exists and that you can see it in movie theaters.

Fun fact, to get to net zero the UK needs to dedicate a bit less than all the land currently used for golf courses to solar.

Just sayin'.

Proven ability from a list of game credits goes a long way in the industry. The job is more to do with knowing how to get stuff done effectively, and dealing with collaboration issues, than about raw talent.

You just rip the dummy out of the driver's seat and use the mounting pole like a joystick /s

Seriously though, it's probably manually drivable via app or wireless controller.

I'd much rather spend my pre coffee half awake time in work, then have the best hours for myself.

You are right, they did get a dual input warning, but for some reason ignored it.

It adds daylight hours to the time of day that people would be likely to be shopping. That was a heavily implied by what I said and I just kind of figured you could understand that without me saying that sentence in that blunt a fashion but well, here we are.

The problem with this country is the majority reads at about the level of a 12 year old. 6th grade that is. This is a fact you can look it up. Even pretty well educated people often read at the level of a 12-year-old.

So you have to be insanely blunt with them and that's tough to do when you're someone who reads at say freshman college level.

For unionization when you've already fired 1/3 of the entire industry. At a certain point you're running it so a bare bones staff that the threat of layoffs no longer really exists unless the company is just completely shutting down. And you can't really offshore anything that you haven't already offshored because at some point you need people to make art that resonates with the locals.

You don't have a lot of managers that don't do anything. You basically have three types of managers. The first are Union busters. They are just there to keep the employees in line and are useful to the company not you. They aren't getting in your way because they are incompetent it's because they need to make sure you don't unionize.

After that you have accountants you also have to do your HR paperwork.

And finally there are line workers who have been promoted into management in order to give them or work for about the same pay.

It's extremely unlikely Tesla fired their Union busters they kind of need those guys to keep pay down. And the same goes for their managing accountants.

That means they more than likely lost some folks who do actual work and wound up with a manager title.

Or even their 30s sitting around for hours on end challenging voter registrations and signatures. That takes a retiree. And older people lean towards the Republican party because they're fucking obsessed with Ronald Reagan and the feeling like they were winning that they had back in the '80s.

I called it like I sees it and I sees it like it is. If you don't like how old people are fucking everything up then try to get old people to stop fucking everything up. I can't do it.

The reason we have daylight savings time is because brick and mortar stores like the extra daylight hours because people shop more when there is light out. Every time there is a serious attempt to eliminate daylight savings time they just splash out a little bit of cash and shut it down. Doesn't even take that much cash since this is mostly local politics or best state level
