@japan_nobunaga I love you. I wish I was capable of being even a fraction of the stoic I imagine you to be. You’re an inspiration. Don’t ever stop being you. (I love your book.)
@gatorgar You sound like someone who enters the interstate at 45 mph and doesn’t accelerate up the on ramp. Which, will be punished by being flayed alive after having the driving privileges of their entire extended family permanently revoked, when I’m the intergalactic emperor that is. 🖕
@Bruwulf@Guysloveguns Firing more than one round by pulling a single trigger makes it a machine gun per federal regulations and ATF definitions of what is and is not a thing. Kinda like how my Glock is a rifle. Because the feds are dumb.
The other night I was driving in pouring rain, fully dark, and the car randomly lost GPS.
No location. No navigation.
Which also meant no FSD.
I tried two software resets while driving just to get GPS back. Nothing worked. So there I was, manually driving in terrible conditions, unsure of positioning, no assistance, no guidance.
And it genuinely felt unsafe. For me and for the people in the car.
Then it hit me.
This feeling - the stress, the uncertainty, the margin for error - this is how most drivers feel every single day.
No FSD. No constant awareness. No backup.
We’ve normalised danger so much that we only notice it when the safety net disappears.
