I’ll do a one-time payment gladly — I did with Apollo — but not a subscription.

Honda’s sensing system will read shadows from bridges as obstructions in the road that it needs to brake for. It’s easy enough to accelerate out of the slowdown, but I was surprised to find that there is apparently no radar check to see if the obstruction is real.
My current vehicle doesn’t have that issue, so either the programming has been improved or the vendor for the sensing systems is a different one (different vehicle make, so it’s entirely possible).

‘Cyberpunk 2077’ Used AI For A Dead Voice Actor’s Performance, With Permission

World of Warcraft would benefit from this. Local processing power is quite up to the task these days, and it’s jarring to see your name on the screen but the audio says “champion” or something similar.
Maybe in 11.0…

Most people of non-African origin (a fact that helped pinpoint where the mixing happened and when) have 1-3% or so, the amount varying by person and region.

This is how I did it, using my Mac laptop. You can’t do it with the phone app, but a Mac or Windows computer can.

Porsche will adopt Android Automotive, complete with Google apps
Reply in thread
Android Automotive (the car OS) does support phone projection (Android Auto and CarPlay).
From what I’ve seen in reviews of cars that have it, Automotive is pretty solid, and I’d take an EV that had it as long as CarPlay were an option. (So no GM for me).
They can’t gather data from my use of the built-in apps if I don’t use them.

Can’t figure out how to save images
Reply in thread
Ugh, I was afraid of that. I’m also testing Memmy, and after some prodding I managed to get its image viewer to present a save icon when tapping on images from the post view, so I can do it there for now, but I’m sure not everyone runs two clients.
I’m really used to a long press popping up a context menu in addition to whatever other UI there may be, so hopefully at some point one of the apps will add that, and Mlem will add save in some fashion.
(I love to keep cute cat pictures. Missing mine a lot!)

Star Trek tech explained: starship navigation lights
Because everything has to be a video now. Ugh.
Ship navigation lights and aircraft lights.
The intended purpose is to indicate a vessel’s current location and course so that other operators can see and avoid, especially at night.
Larger aircraft are also fitted with collision avoidance systems that automatically prompt pilots to climb or descend (and synchronise with the system on the other aircraft).
Bonus: day shapes are displayed on vessel mastheads to indicate the operating status of a vessel during daylight hours.

Some keyboards also come with software that lets you disable or remap keys. I turned Caps Lock into something more useful to me, for instance.

And finally added a rear wiper. Its absence is why I didn’t consider one of these.

My experience with those was that they proved formulaic and repetitive after a time, but the first few were good. They did have problems with shallow characterisations, though, at least to me.

Job losses likely at VW as the people’s car brand becomes uncompetitive

That vehicle had a recall out to replace the badly-designed shifter. It was ignored.
The fix would have been free.

Why stand in line to board an airplane?

Hard of hearing also. It’s so frustrating that text signs that list announcements are so rare.
Captions on television/movies and games are commonplace, but in the real world, very few places care.
Might be because I’m in a red state for a few more years due to family; blue states likely tend to be more aware of issues like ours.
I did see written callouts of upcoming tram stops once, but I can’t recall which airport. It may have been ORD.

Honda previews its first electric SUV arriving in 2024 with estimated range, pricing
This is one of two options if you like Ultium (GM) but want to use phone mirroring. Honda has refused to pull CarPlay and Android Auto like GM is doing.
The other is the Acura variant of this same vehicle, though of course it has Acura design cues.
I like both, though for now we already have an AWD ID.4 that we love. I’ll be looking at these, though, for the future if we need to replace the VW. Hopefully they’ll have amber rear signals (the VW doesn’t) and allow temperature display in Celsius (my past Honda didn’t).

Both options is the best way, I agree. Easy enough to do, at least on iOS. Let users choose.

I never liked it because I didn’t want to accidentally change the face, which happened a few times.
I was always surprised that there was no way to disable the feature.
But now we can both be happy. It’s a shame that the simple solution of making it a toggleable option took this long.

Same issue for me. Can't find a way to do this. Apollo had a message at the bottom of the screen that said "view all comments", essentially. So far, Lemmy doesn't seem to have an equivalent anywhere.
