Is Pompeii from a past geological age?

2000 years ago doesn’t seem important on geological time scales.

Let’s be honest here, if it was as close as you’re implying, a solid 50% or more of people would not have avoided the accident. Just look around when you’re out driving and see how many people are paying that close attention. I still think auto braking is better than nothing. Remembering cars have ABS and you’d still be able to steer around as needed. Presumably the car would let you override by pressing the accelerator.

The benefit to cars auto braking is that cars can start braking a second before a person, with a much quicker reaction period. Plus we saw in your video how many people driving are paying attention 😅.

But this is not an argument for self driving, cars can and do have this function with the driver also paying attention for the best of both worlds.

This is actually a perfect use case for a car controlling itself. Automatically applying emergency brakes is something cars (not just self driving cars) have been doing for a while now (in higher end cars).

The thing that puts me off a Tesla (other than the owned by a nazi who bought his way into government thing) is that the fatality rate is double the average, and the weird doors that unless you have been explicitly shown the emergency handle, you’re trapped inside after an accident because the normal door opening latch loses power as part of requirements to not electrocute emergency personnel.

The Cybertruck is scarier, because the emergency personnel will struggle to break a window to get you out or use the jaws of life to cut you out on account of the armoured doors and bullet proof windows.

If I’m honest I’m actually wondering why none if those drivers were paying attention. Cars blow tyres or otherwise stop, it’s not limited to misbehaving teslas. The tesla wasn’t braking hard and suddenly, it just slowed down.

In my mind the drivers should have been paying more attention.

Sorry, I know we like to hate on teslas here. I still wouldn’t buy one (or be a passenger).

There isn’t really a reason for the app not to fake your journey through the tunnel. It knows you’re about to enter a tunnel, and it knows you will probably lose GPS signal. It should just show you driving through that tunnel until an estimated time you should exit, then if you don’t reconnect in time it should pause at that spot until you catch up.

If you’re using Nextcloud All In One then it’s easy to enable it in the AIO settings.

If you’re not, I suggest looking into it. It’s the new officially recommended way of installing and it’s been great.

Nextcloud has an export/import data function but at the time I did it I only had a few GB of data so not sure how well it scales.

Ah I didn’t know about the android logs. Next time it happens I’ll check them. Normally I’m not near access to the server when it happens.

I just tried to force android to kill it but I opened up 20 other apps and when I switched back it was still active so I guess I’ll just have to wait.

I’ve looked and looked and can’t find this “log” entry? By global settings, you mean tap the menu at the top right and tap settings?

I run LibreELEC on an old laptop strapped to the back of my TV, with a PC connected remote to control it. It works really well but I always get the feeling it can do so much more than I use it for.

I sync with Jellyfin using the addon, but don’t do much other than that. And must have things I don’t know exists?

I’m told Melbourne is mostly the same climate as the northern part of NZ, except it will randomly be 45+ degrees Celsius (apparently 113F).

Good to know. I wonder what the issue is. It has always done it, for the year or more I’ve used it.

Haha I was gonna make this dumb joke but you beat me to it.

Or simply “…they will be deleted after Alexa processes your request and generates a token for AI training”.

Yip that’s the other mentioned app. I’ll try to remember to use it next time I am listening to something.

Thanks for the tip, unfortunately I don’t use Plex I’m on the Jellyfin side but someone pointed out there’s another app connected to Audiobookshelf so I will use that next time.

Interesting, I was expecting this to be at the beginning not recently, but it seems it was open source up to 2017 - but I’m now realising that 2017 is fast approaching a decade ago so might not count as recently.

Ooh thanks for the reminder. It’s installed on my phone but I’ve never actually used it. I think I forget to use it when it comes to actually listening.

F-Droid. Might be relevant that I’m on GrapheneOS.

I love Audiobookshelf, my main complaint is the Android app crashes when killed by Android (so when I try to open it I get a message about it crashing and then have to reopen it). That might just be a me thing.

I used the tool Libation to download my Audible books. There was a Firefox extension to download audiobooks from Libby but it’s no longer working because Libby changed something and the dev didn’t have time to fight the battle, anyone have a good solution to that?
