I'm actually an engineer at [company name]

Bro it's petty revenge time. [Company name] needs to see these messages and asked if this is representative of their company values.

One of my greatest pet peeves is random folders appearing in my home folder. Thanks for this

I hope the 16 has a headphone jack so that "everyone should steal this revolutionary new feature from apple" as well.

Not sure what it says about the current state of gaming that so many of these games are quite old

We can teach them about how once-upon-a-time common sense copyright laws got perverted by the mouse so badly.

An easy first step would be making licensing more strict. Where I am there are classes of licence for passenger vehicles, larger transport trucks, busses, and finally semis/lorries. Each step up requires further testing and more stringent requirements.

I feel like it'd go a long way if your typical American pickup was moved up a class. How many people just wouldn't bother with a big truck if it meant another driving test and visit to the DMV? Any vehicle over X height, X length, X wheelbase, whatever would become a "commercial truck". Smaller trucks from back when they made small trucks wouldn't meet the requirements.

Sadly I don't think a politician running on a policy like that is winning an election anytime soon.

Not saying it's a bad product, but all I'm seeing here is "we're releasing yet another new product while our existing lineup languishes in the quagmire of Soon™ regarding relatively basic features."

I have three, I'm a car enthusiast. I want to enjoy my car without the entirety of society being required to own them to exist.

Even if the dream is achieved and taking my car is more expensive and slower than public transit (which it should be), I'd still drive most of the time because I actually enjoy it. I'd rather not share the road with people that also actually want to be there. It'd be a safer and more pleasant experience.
