Terrified friends burn to death trapped in Tesla as doors won't open after crash
  • He's getting flamed because convertibles have been doing frameless door windows forever with manual overrides. It's not something super special Tesla has done. Musk just doesn't want to spend the extra money doing it right.

  • Terrified friends burn to death trapped in Tesla as doors won't open after crash
  • I read an article that Teslas are designed to have thier electrics in a daisy chain to avoid big ugly bundles of wires. But that just means a failure propagates down the chain so non critical systems can take out critical ones. Clearly he doesn't listen to or hire car engineers.

  • We should defederate lemmy.ml
  • Fwiw, even reddit has the "quarantine" and "nsfw" flags so you aren't seeing every sub with cookers and porn. If we can't have that, I think we should be defederating from the servers filled with cookers so the new user experience is better.

  • Fans Cancel Kingdom Come: Deliverance II Pre-Orders Because of Denuvo.
  • They MBA types treat it as something you just do these days. It protects the game from being pirated in those first few critical weeks of sale. Then they remove it as a gesture of goodwill and the anti-denuvo fans come back and buy the game anyway.

    Dean is part of Labor's right faction. Might mean he's more likely to work with the Liberals. Our native forests may not survive this.

    Where are the numbers, Mason? If we had the numbers then maybe people would be able to tell if it's in their best interests. The more you hide this shit away under "commercial confidence" the more people won't trust you.

    Tasmania has become the first state in Australia to officially add the letter 'A' to its LGBTIQA+ gender and sexuality acronym on government documentation.

    Could a tax against empty homes help end Australia's housing crisis?

    www.abc.net.au Could a vacancy tax solve Australia's housing crisis? Canada might have the answer

    In 2018, Canada's British Columbia introduced a tax against vacant homes. Three years later, more than 20,000 rentals were back on the market.

    Could a vacancy tax solve Australia's housing crisis? Canada might have the answer

    My first instinct is "yes" but then I thought about it and I think it's just going to exacerbate the short-stay problem unless combined with other measures.

    More of the same problems plaguing the country. Yet nothing is going to be done about it aside from providing subsidies that go straight to the parasites.

    The mountain has claimed another victim. The place catches so many off guard because it's 15mins from the CBD and you can drive straight to the top. But the weather can turn on a dime and you're very exposed up there.
