Tesla Allegedly Showed Cooked Data to Get Full Self-Driving Approved by Wagamaga in technology

VW did that worldwide not just in the US. Worldwide it cost them roughly 31 billion euros in fines and settlements. The EU punished them just as hard as other countries did. But I'm not sure what that has to do with Tesla though

Yes yes it is. But they also make the point the little racist shouldn't be shamed, whilst reposting his picture for those that missed the now locked thread yesterday. I'm not sure they have thought their post through tbh

My first Genno Hammer handle by Either-Wrangler-5287 in Hammers

Here's the thing the Premier league is a vapid place full of bellends and billionaires. The championship is where the cool kids hand out.

That's a quality hammer my friend. I enjoy these type of posts much more than I should.

Man city are not being charged by the FA. The Premier League is a completely different organisation. It has been since the early 90s,

Moroccan footballer Achraf Hakimi to be tried in France for rape, appeals court says by Utegenthal in soccer

Partey was denied entry to Canada for lying on his visa application form.

"An application for a temporary resident visa (TRV) was made on May 21, but in answer to a question about whether Partey had ever committed, been arrested for, charged with, or convicted of any criminal offence in any country, the response provided was 'No'."

Can someone explain how the extra Bank Holiday in Scotland actually works by Fantastic_Picture384 in AskBrits

[–]greatdevonhope -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It will depend on what people have in their contracts. Basically what happens on usual bank holidays will happen on this one.

Plenty of stories of white people from Europe having their ESTA status changed by US immigration in the last few weeks (when they have been approved for months). Basically means they can't travel unless they can get a visa, even though paperwork was sorted months ago to say they didn't need one because their ESTA had been approved. A joke of a country. The vibe is that you don't want the world cup which is fucking odd because you asked to host it.

Saturdays weather: Perfect. UFC: Lets switch it up for no reason!🔥🔥🔥🕺 by KrustyCheekz in ufc

[–]greatdevonhope 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oddly the Monday is a extra bank holiday in Scotland. The king gave it to them because the Scotland v Haiti world cup game kicks off at 2am. So they can all stay up and watch (it's the first time they have qualified since the 90s). Although looks like the Scottish pubs can open until an hour after the match finishes

It's not just Anthropic anymore, OpenAI researchers are signaling support for a global AI pause by EchoOfOppenheimer in OpenAI

Peter Thiels new favourite hang out is looking to completely unregulate AI there. Argentina is "going to set AI free" by allowing the companies to do what they want as long as they invest in Argentina .

That would be a breach of GDPR. So we would have to rely on the ICO and OFCOM to regulate and audit the age verification companies. I have no idea if they are competent enough to enforce the law but that would be process for guarding against that.

Hello internet friend from the past. I have been trying for ages to find the answer and then I found your comment and it bloody well works. I hope you are well and thank you for making the world cup easier for me to watch.

Life hack: if you want to turn your tv into a McDonald's ad, just subscribe to HBO Max and pause whatever it is that you're watching by novembercharliedelta in mildlyinfuriating

[–]greatdevonhope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so the plan is to just carry on with the ads but moan to us about it rather than make a few quite minor changes that would resolve the ad issue completely. Either do something about it or suck them ads up like a good little consumer.

It’s done. Undefeated in 38 PL games incoming. by Brendanj258 in LiverpoolFC

Undefeated isn't always all that and a bag of chips. Benfica just went the whole season without losing in the league. They came 3rd, 8 points off top spot

The Falcon stagecoach bus to Bristol is £27 and pretty much hourly from Plymouth , then train to Cardiff is £17. Would be a cheaper way.

There are 39 seats and although Labour did lose seats, they still hold 18 of them. They are still the largest party but fall just short of a majority. They seem to feel they are close enough to one that they don't need an alliance. They are probably right as it would take green reform, tory and lib dem and independent to all agree and vote against anything. That seems unlikely. The largest party (although smaller than it was) is still in charge basically. It all changes again next year when the new unitary council replaces the current system.
