During one of my last Waymo rides the car stopped on Powell between Bush and Sutter (facing South stopping on the regular lane a bit before the Powell/Sutter crossing). This caused…

After a total of 41 Waymo rides so far: Yes, absolutely.

Yes. Most of the plans of the provider that I use in the US (T-Mobile) include free SMS and MMS to any country (also free data roaming in almost any country). I think it's similar …

> The best thing to do is for the city to own both fiber and electricity, and let providers compete for both. Something similar is the case in the European Union, as the electricit…

With Google Voice I have a phone number not tied to a particular SIM card or to a particular phone. When I travel internationally I can use a cheap local SIM and I'm still reachabl…

Did you have the number configured as forwarding number? At some point I got asked to verify an old forwarding number, but I just deleted it and Google Voice continued to work fine…

Main downside of Skype is that you afaik can't port a number into it. Otherwise it would be a great alternative to Google Voice.

For day to day use I use Apple Maps, but when hiking Organic Maps is my absolute favorite. A lot more useful than Apple Maps or Google Maps (as it includes routes that are missing …

Slightly offtopic but related: One of my mobile providers supports configuring public (non firewalled) IP addresses for mobile devices and when choosing that option my phone batter…

For some reason lots of Android phones (even the Pixel models from Google) seem to use a whitelist approach that is quite restrictive regarding where VoLTE is supported. For exampl…

My personal Internet connection is a bit too slow to wait for re-uploading all the data and my vserver doesn't have enough disk space to temporarily store all the data so I pretty …

I did not notice direct data loss yet, but I noticed other behavior that made me reconsider how much I trust it. For example in the past I had several occurrences of duplicate phot…

This works fine for smaller accounts, but on larger accounts it seems to be regularly failing (based on my own experience and based on other postings and reports that I found onlin…

"and purpose built to run openpilot" would be the main issue here. Everything else is also required by a regular dashcam. The legal question here would be (and I don't know that an…

I didn't mean to say that they are not the owners, but that those two items (Comma devices and the software) are two different things. Yes - Comma owns that repository and there ar…

> Comma selling this product like it's some car accessory looks pretty reckless to me. Comma is not selling openpilot (the software that makes your car self-driving), but they are …

As add-on to this comment: There's another Lucene issue from 2 weeks ago that provides some more details on different approaches that were considered: https://github.com/apache/luc…

Even worse with transit in Vienna/Austria where if you buy tickets in advance for a specific day or date range they seem to take your local time into account if those tickets are b…

Just a heads-up if you're planning to use passkeys with iOS/macOS: Might be fixed already, but last time I tried it out it seemed like iOS only stored a single passkey per domain. …

There's an interesting Twitter thread about that topic here: https://twitter.com/GergelyOrosz/status/1651256082424012806 Based on that thread it sounds like only AWS guarantees tha…

Are there any new ICE vehicles currently selling in the US for less than $20k? I'd expect the Model 2 to be priced at least at $30k.

The quoted CoinGeek site is owned by Calvin Ayre who works together with Craig Wright. All their BSV related articles are very one-sided and extremely biased. A more objective view…

"Faketoshi" already tried that in the past and was successful in the UK due to a default judgement: https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2021/06/29/uk-court-orders-...
