Are you suggesting the system should ignore full pedal press?
I think it is very clear from what they wrote that they want Tesla's advertising practices, such as calling their driver aids "Full Self-Driving" to stop, since it creates a false impression.
Ah, so just botching in general and not at all related to the article in someone died.
If I want crass, I'll go to Facebook.
There's a fair presence of free thinkers on Lemmy, I'm certain more than on Reddit, but still plenty of those looking to get some upvotes by regurgitating prevailing opinions when applicable.
Lemmy never lets silly things like "relevance" get in the way of their hate boners.
Nor can they handle critism.
Tiny little egos with low emotional intelligence and no desire to grow, just point fingers and whine.
Who is "they" on a decentralised platform?
Who is being crass now?
I think you're telling us more about yourself than anything else.
Critize away. I love the feedback.
Good try though.
Not at all and I have no idea how you got from 'this name is misleading in a dangerous way' to suggesting it work differently.
No, I get it. You could resist the opportunity.
I sure the victim and her family appreciates you guys using her death to drag Tesla despite being on a platform where almost everyone is in agreement.
I'm sure Tesla appreciates you defending them and a check will be in the mail soon.
I didn't defend tesla at any point. You injected it that for your own personal narrative to make sense.
It's more related to the term "Full Self Driving". It implies that the car is it's own driver and therefore, that you are a passenger. A driver needs to always have control, even if some passenger messes with the pedals because he fell asleep.
