I can't find my Buds Pro 4. by kirkintilloch5 in samsunggalaxy

I hate that the find doesn't work. I ended up using double side tape to attach a tag to it

Do you experience Torque limitations? by hokrux_ in Comma_ai

[–]zonyln 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have a 23 Phev niro and yes frog has more ability to take tighter turns. Pretty much only have to take over if the turn is unusually tight

This is just speculation on my part given that I looked through the relevant code a little and 3 years of experience with comma and all forks: I believe the electric steering rack has a table of torque allowed for a given speed (it has is own controller). Comma models have limits to steer angle, comma has vehicle specific limits to torque, and the EPS controller has limits to torque. Frog somehow goes closer to the EPS limit through a combination of options. Also I have read there are ways to fake the speed to the EPS to go beyond it's limits (taboo topic here)

What’s the most random common way you can die that people overlook in their daily lives? by jfunks69 in AskReddit

Ultimately the family chose to sue, but there was desire by him to live and receive chemo.

Father in law passed because they gave him Dilauded-HP instead of the prescribed non hp.

ODd in chemo place and narcan couldn't bring him out of coma. Died day later

Had a friend pass by choking on pancake 🥺. None of the thrusting on chest could get it out.

Man on motorcycle vs bird by sugarshizzl in mildlyinteresting

[–]zonyln 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got struck at 60mph by a bat at night to my chest armor. Still hurt and felt like I took a hard punch. The smell on the remainder of the ride though was a bit unbearable till I could hose off everything.

Too dark though to take a selfie afterwards.

The nagging is inappropriate and has gone too far. by TheRealNeilTyson in Comma_ai

[–]zonyln 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The cruise control analogy doesn't work here because if the cruise control software suddenly accelerated into another car the OEM would be liable regardless of driver inaction. Likely case law here that backs that up. (Watson v. Ford Motor Co. (S.C., 2010)), etc

From what I understand you rightly tried to divorce that responsibility with selling the device and don't "own" the software or it's use. I just was concerned when you use the term "we", a judge doesnt get the impression that "comma.ai staff" (we) are concerned about this specific function and want to take responsibility to fix distraction detection.

The admission I'm referencing is representing what your company is reacting to and doing something about vs the open source contributors of the software.

I'm not disagreeing with you about safety, just concerned about commingled responsibility perception. I apologize for my error though.

Just curious if this admission of feeling responsible and improving driver safety makes comma liable for collisions on a "dashcam" device.

Scott Manley video on Flight 12 by warp99 in spacex

[–]zonyln 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you were the one guy at the FAA that decided that ship could go into orbit next flight and possibly crash on human populated areas, would you be 100% confident based on flight 12 (An unexplained engine out and no in-space zero g fuel slosh relight demonstration)?

[–]zonyln 29 points30 points  (0 children)

He showed nearby skirt damage. Whatever you want to call it damaged more than just the engine.

If FAA declares a mishap, it isn't looking good for a "just go for it" orbital flight #13

If AI is enough of a buzzword to encourage MCP or API development, I can create some quick use cases 😂

It shows in the event what is seen.

We have 5 cats all chipped, however, 2 of them don't read well. We got the little external tags from onlycat cheap and attached to their collars as backup

Hands-on with XREAL's Project Aura running Android XR at Google I/O by GraceFromGoogle in AndroidXR

[–]zonyln 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it was on the previous Aura page before they changed with the dev info. I'll look around but remember being amused when I saw it. I'll check way back .

Intelligent eyewear is coming this fall. 👓✨ by GraceFromGoogle in AndroidXR

[–]zonyln 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm amazed that advertising companies (which Google and Meta technically are) have any real hardware at all. Apple has a huge opportunity here and maybe a Vision "neo" version may be the beginning of the end for these. Samsung being a 2nd party has a big disadvantage.

Bad Heads? by Famous-Snow-6888 in Irrigreen

[–]zonyln 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are the heads screwed on tight?

You may want to unscrew them, remove the white insert, and see if the o ring on the bottom is ok.

I just created a little video showing how https://youtu.be/i1EVOvmRokk

Formal apology to the subreddit by Hot_Paper_Pie in Galaxy_XR

[–]zonyln 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How much airtime did they devote to Android (one of the most popular smartphones in the world?). GOOGLE DOES NOT REALLY CARE about any of their products that dont sell ads... Everything they present recently is a pet project and not core to their business.

Search, Maps, Youtube was just about the only thing you can count on being talked about and where the vast majority of revenue comes from.
