*Women are actually pretty happy that I’ve decided to finally treat them with respect. I’m doing it for them, sure — but also for myself, and honestly for society as a whole. This kind of situation won’t happen again. They’ve basically agreed to respond better to me now that I’m acting different. I mean, when I show up, they’ll probably appreciate it — maybe not say it outright, but you can tell.

We’re working together now, in a smarter way, and it’s going really well! Isn’t that better than all the conflict and rejection??? BUT REMEMBER, I could go back to how things were before if I wanted to — I just don’t, because I’m choosing the better path now.*

I've had 2 cards in the past 10 years. One was AMD and it was a nightmare to find the one driver that didn't crash my PC at least twice a month. The other card was NVIDIA and never had a crash on any driver ever.

Maybe it's just bad luck but I won't buy AMD again after that crap and probably won't go green either. I'll keep waiting to see how Intel advances.

I know the feeling. Similar thing happened in a discord I'm in. Rate limit ban on a leader account, no response from support even via burner, then jumped ship to a new one that could actually be managed.

At least discord has to foot the storage costs of a dead server pestered with bots because of their own incompetence.

Anyway, human computer interaction folks (HCI) have been talking about these issues for literally a decade. Tesla vehicles are prone to sudden unintended acceleration. Tons of people have gotten locked inside a Tesla unable to escape. Etc. Etc. Tons of terrible UI issues and human control issues. It’s well known at this point.

These folks just wanna fanboy/girl over being scammed by their favorite billionaire for the lol memes.

The main problem is that all these companies have no experience with ISO26262 or Functional Safety for Road Vehicles. Replace "Tesla" with "BYD" and look at the number of news headlines regarding exploding cars in China.

Only benefit that comes from cars coming from the big 3 is that there's at least a few years of experience behind the design (even if its a bad one) so that it at least it doesn't blow up, or lock you in when its on fire.
