Sure, but the public perception was completely different. Tesla was a leftist political statement. Electric cars? Saving the climate? What a ridiculous idea only libs would subscribe to, electric cars will never work. Teslas were keyed by coal-rolling right wingers.

The opinion went a total 180°, and many people still own Teslas from that time. I have no sympathy for e.g. Cybertruck owners, but many Tesla owners were buying them years ago, when they were seen as tech for progressives that care about the environment.

That will accomplish you preventing them from seeing the contents of your phone. It will also accomplish you not getting past the border. At best.

Yeah, I was thinking of a new repo with no existing code.

In your case you'd want to uncheck the creation of a readme so the hosted repo is empty and can be pushed to without having to overwrite (force) anything.

You don't if you just clone the repo you created.

If he didn't mean it it would be very simple to at the very least post a tweet afterwards saying he's sorry for the misunderstanding and that he didn't mean it to look thay way. Like any innocent person would do in that situation.

The fact he didn't shows all you need to know.

I mean, one would hope that whenever there is a new version it's more secure than the last one. Not that it's true, but that's how it should be, so nothing weird about the claim.

Do you have any evidence pointing at that? So far it seems SafetyCore is a local-only service that despite all the uproar no researchers actually found doing anything suspicious.

And the only thing I hate more than Google is misinformation and fearmongering.

As funny as it is when presented that way, it does make sense. After all if a company is using AI wherever possible, and yet hiring a person, then presumably it's because they want that person to do things they don't want to be using AI for.

I find I will sometimes stop the alarm instead of snoozing it while half-asleep. I need the alarm to ring again for these cases, even if rare.

His Elon Musk videos, and debunking other tech bro bullshit, absolutely, but I stopped watching him as the channel became too clickbaity/sensational for me to take seriously. I still agree with many of the opinions, but the format is not for me anymore.

Absolutely you can use it with a PC, what I'm saying is that most people don't, and also because of that companies release Quest exclusive games that are bad. Just recently Civilisation VII was announced for VR. What an amazing game it could be, but just look yourself: https://www.meta.com/en-gb/experiences/sid-meiers-civilization-vii-vr/5781689118524197/ Even in the official store images, it looks atrocious and nowhere near what the flat version looks like (and how it could look on PC). And then people will see that and think this is what VR has to offer.

I got an Index in 2019 and I'm using it to this day, definitely got my money's worth of gaming in that time.

There are great VR games on PC. Problem is Meta flooded the market with their standalone headsets that can only play very simple small games, and shifted the perception that that's what VR is.
