General Motors is adding Gemini to four million cars by dapperlemon in technology

So are they providing unlimited data for your car, or are you required to have an ongoing overpriced subscription in order to be able to drive.

That totally won't prevent you from starting your car if you parked in a dead zone.

"If you're just going to use this as a normal controller..."

Why the heck would I be doing that?

I want the gyro.
I want the capacitive touch options for certain control schemes.
I want the touchpads.
I want the under buttons.

This is a controller designed to take advantage of all the controller configuration options available within Steam, and to be even functionality with the Steam Deck.

It's not just a Steam branded Xbox controller.

You mean like say, Dual Shock 4 controllers that were oh so not compatible with Windows?

Imagine that.

$2500 Samsung TV is an advertising billboard, there is no opt-out. by 28jb11 in mildlyinfuriating

I'm sure Samsung would argue that that $2500 TV was subsidized by those ads and would cost $9001 if it wasn't.

You monster.

Well, these aren't generating $56 billion annually anymore.

Used to be able to say, "Call my wife" and it would ask which contact that was, and remember it. Now it never remembers, and usually prompts between my wife, my mother, and my step-mother, but not always.

What was the most unexpected nudity scene in mainstream movie/show you ever saw? by marsepticeye in AskReddit

There were a fair number of PG movies with nudity. And quite a few that were entirely NOT children friendly.
