My car autobrakes when it believes I’m going to hit something.
It has never saved me from an accident but it’s almost caused a few.
Disabling it is three levels deep in the menu and only lasts until you turn the car off.
It’s bad in summer when I have my bike rack on. If there’s a bike in it, i can’t reverse. It will sense slight movement of the bike and believe I’m about to hit something.

Scott Ritter disagrees.
I'll choose Scott Ritter's analysis of the this war or about any war over Tucker Carlson's analyses regarding the same.
Yes, I do disagree.
The ad couldn't have been "too much" when his campaign had played basically the same ad throughout his campaign. That's a cover story.
Again, this particular charge of "anti-Senitism"? She should get a life.
You can't legitimately violate your "principles" when you have none.
@ShiroKuro Are you going to watch more of the conference, or just do your Zoom presentation and go back to bed? Either way, I hope you feel better soon.
I did a Zoom presentation last night, and one this morning. It’s great for presenting from a different city!
I having a passing familiarity (but little) with Kant, Russell, and Wittgenstein.
I've studied Wittgenstein. I remember nothing.
While I'm on the subject, I'm into Foucault (and have read many of his works), but have no use for Derrida.
I can't give away trade secrets.
And yes, I was surprised to find that the forum has been sitting there since 2005. Someone is paying for that storage even though no one (well except me) can get to it!
Technology has become much too complicated as well as intrusive.
All of this is much more of an energy sink than a convience.
It also (electronics in appliances and devices, and cars, unfortunately) has a clear (and severe) tie in with planned obsolescence.
I started using Android for the simplicity of it, the easy to understand and use software interface.
Motorola has added so much bloatware to my phone since I bought it that it's not the same phone now. It also changes the user interface in numerous and random ways every matter of days (not weeks).
Its battery is starting to drain progressively faster for the maker's purpose that a phone with a sealed battery (or every phone) is on a downward glide path to becoming inoperable (when otherwise it would last for many years).
This is one time I won't mind it. I hate this phone with a passion.
