I've been waiting for someone to do this for years.

I can't speak for other manufacturers, or even in other countries, but Mitsubishi Canada at least has an opt-out for data collection. You need to call their customer care number and they will remotely disable it.

When cruise control is on, yes, but it's extremely gentle. The slightest bit of resistance from the driver will overpower it.

Can't also for Toyota, but yes, my Mitsubishi has the option of simple cruise control without lane keeping.

I've never had any issue with the lane assist in my Mitsubishi. It's absolutely built as an "assist" and not something that will actually try to take control from you. It's trivial to "overpower" it manually and turn out of your lane without signaling if that's what you want to do, but does a perfectly reasonable job of steering on its own when left to its own devices.

That said, I wouldn't be driving a vehicle new enough to have the feature yet either if I hadn't been rear ended a couple of years ago and had my 2012 Lancer written off. :(

With imagery, or in abstracts. I have an internal monologue but not everything is a monologue. If I'm working on a project of some kind I'll usually keep a mental model of the current piece I'm working on in my head. There's no monologue attached, it's just a "working copy" of my current task.

Or for example if I'm reaching somewhere I can't see to plug in a usb port or something I'm visualizing in my head what my hand is doing, but I'm not talking myself through it.

Same. I learned this was a thing just the other day.

I don't use them often but do find them nicer for parenthetical remarks sometimes.

A friend of mine is albino and turned down a job offer in South Africa around that time. The thought of even being on the same continent with that going on made him profoundly uncomfortable.

This is really what blows my mind the most. With all this talk about how much power LLMs and diffusion models use companies are still constantly cramming it into places where it's just running all the time passively doing things no one asked for.

Overall power use by these things would probably be cut down by an order of magnitude by just limiting it to directed, intentional use only.

"Conduit" is the word for those tubes for wires. Probably a shared etymology with "conductor" though.

Having the pipes in the mortar/bricks sounds like a maintenance nightmare.

Ah, if you need to build a .NET project that makes sense

Nuget is a the .NET package manager. Like npm or pip, but for .NET projects.

If you needed it for a published application that strikes me as fairly strange.
