The strategy is to raise prices and get more sales at the same time

Good strategy if he can pull it off. 🤣🤣🤣

That is true, but for instance Ian M Banks predicted AI being able to make art already back in the 70’s in his Culture series of books.
Even accurately simulating famous artists. And his conclusion was that AI should not make art at all, because it would end up detracting from the value of art.

I think the reason the CEO is wrong, is that it will be a legal shitshow, and I think AI art may become illegal, or at the very least required to be clearly labeled as AI art.

We will see how it turns out.

It’s true it’s not as accurate, but I think it can tell for more than 1, as long as it’s not in the wrong pattern.
Also if all 4 are going flat, there is either something seriously wrong or the user hasn’t checked tire pressure for a very long time, and you still need to do that.

I suppose that’s the thing that can measure the rotation with high enough accuracy, I didn’t even think of that.
So it’s based on a sensor that is already there! Very clever. 👍

What cost?

I’m arguing to convert to metric when posting on an international forum, because metric is the international standard.
But I’ll have you know that I often also post Imperial units when posting things that are in metric, because I know there are also a lot of Americans here. I’ve seen others do the same.
But Americans very rarely do that. Hence the claim about American arrogance.

Finally to make the car show bar instead of psi and use it for recommended tire pressure has no extra cost.

This is especially bad in USA, but usually a bit better in European countries that have representation of the unions on the board.

I must admit I’m a bit of an VW fanboy, I just bought an ID.4 and I am waiting for it be ready to drive home.
It is such a brilliant piece of engineering in so many ways, I am very impressed with what VW achieved with that car.
Goddam the driving of that car is excellent! 😀 😎

Seems to me it did the job, maybe not as accurate, but it’s a way simpler system and less error prone.

It’s not just different, it’s less intuitive, and it’s based on other obsolete units, and it is only used by a minority.
I bet if some other country had their own national standards of measurement plastered all over the net, that you would be pretty annoyed by that too.
But somehow USA doing this shit constantly is OK because AMERICA!!

Americans are fucking annoying with their constant special pleading, it’s OK to post psi or other imperial units, but for fucks sake post the metric units too that the majority is using.

The VW ID.4 uses actual/expected rotational speed to calculate pressure.
No sensor to ruin there.

This Imperial shit is getting ridiculous.
And the arrogance of expecting the rest of the world to understand it without converting to a more widely used standard is astounding.
PSI = pounds per square inch.

WTF Really? Anybody is using that? POUNDS PER SQUARE INCH!!! That’s what you are going with??
Instead of the much simpler and way more intuitive bar which is based on atmospheric pressure.

For anyone not using tribal Imperial 24 psi is 1.65 bar and 50 psi is 3.45 Bar.

Epic Games CEO and Fortnite boss Tim Sweeney:

everyone will have to 'fess up to using it eventually as AI will become “involved in nearly all future production.”

Once again Epic games act like the moronic villains they are.

Or maybe just “I’m sorry, you should go get tested.”

That’s a good one. 😀

Yes, but among friends is different.

I don’t give a shit about such insults.
They just show I’m facing another moron, which I can beat intellectually with hardly any effort.
How about a reply along the lines of, OK I’m sure she enjoyed that, how was it for you to fuck a 60 year old woman?
Or alternatively: Oh were you the impotent one she mentioned? It’s easy to throw back an insult twice as bad.

I was once in a bar in the winter where some local was trying to be harass me because we had signed up for the billiard table.
I was wearing a IMO very cool scarf, and the local walked up to me, feeling my scarf and asking if my mom had made that for me.
And I responded (truthfully) that no, it was not my mom but my sister who had made it.
He had no idea how to respond to that, because I had at once told him that no, I am not a mothers baby, but I do have a nice family. So yes indeed I probably did come from a better family than him.

He was at a complete loss for words, and simply walked away, because he had no response to that.

Insults about family are moronic, some random stranger don’t know your family anyway, so it’s 100% made up and not worth getting offended over. On the other hand it shows an infantile mentality that can be easily manipulated if you keep your cool.

It’s so easy to throw such shit back at them doubly, and they tend to get confused, because they know they were beat with next to no effort.

It doesn’t translate anything automatically, you have to choose translation manually for a site in a foreign language. It ALWAYS shows the original first.
So that’s complete and utter made up bullshit.

this would be nice if it were opt in, I guess.

It doesn’t do shit if you don’t use it, why would you want opt in for that?
The same goes for the other features.

Delivering total nonsense, with complete confidence.

Just like a real CEO.

Because Mozilla isn’t the scumbag company the blog tries to paint them as.

They won’t, it’s a stupid blog that is making shit up.
