I swear if I get another Word document with nothing more than a screenshot pasted inside I’m going to run off a cliff. Everyday at work. Microsoft must love this.

Too many families in America, sadly.

The mother was on CBS this morning and while the story is sad my wife and I looked at each other with the same question when the mom stated the teen shot himself. Gayle King would have been horrible to start questioning the mother on the gun question but you kind of wish she would have especially in light of the lawsuit.

Earlier this year, after he started getting in trouble at school, his parents arranged for him to see a therapist. He went to five sessions and was given a new diagnosis of anxiety and disruptive mood dysregulation disorder.

Sounds like he received some therapy, but this can be an expensive and difficult to access form of healthcare for many.

He put down his phone, picked up his stepfather’s .45 caliber handgun and pulled the trigger.

A tragic story for sure, but there are questions about the teen’s access to the gun he used to kill himself.

Reading is hard.

Pillows on the bed look pretty plush, so I dunno.

You need to charge your phone

Good point

My new Hyundai did this, sorta, and it also had to be recalled. Shifting into reverse would immediately display the rear view camera (good) but then about 25% of the time it would flash a dialogue box on top of the display with instructions on how to operate the display (bad). You could select “Dismiss” or “Don’t Show This Again”. Selecting “Don’t show This Again” did nothing (worse). With the dialog present you could not see the rear view camera display and if you are one of many drivers with muscle memory, the car was already rolling backwards when you realize you cannot see (unacceptable).

Elon sucks and I would never buy a Tesla but just adding this as a reference point that software in cars generally sucks.

He’s a great developer but he needs to find a way not to be so reliant on giant tech companies to make his apps viable.

Do you both have the same type of phone?

Indeed. They discovered that:

shit in = shit out.

Nope

I think he had no god dammed idea what he was doing and still doesn’t.

Except for obvious typos

Sir, this is a Wendy’s.

It’s anti-competitive to other search engines and advertisers.

No but that was a similar story that came out at the same time. I think I may be thinking about the Cruise vehicles.

But didn’t it come out recently that Waymo has human “drivers” behind a remote control and that it is nearly a 1:1 relationship of driver to car because the self driving tech just hasn’t made it far enough?
