They've already got attention-sensing tech to make sure your eyes are on the road, they can repurpose it so the cars will pull over if your eyes aren't watching the screen.

The real commercial-grade stuff you won't normally find in a hardware store because it costs five times as much and only actual tradies are going to buy it. And they buy from outlets that target trade customers.

Main Paineframe posted:Yeah, but imagine if there was a cap on the total amount of gold that could exist in the game at once, or on the total amount that can be generated gamewide in a given time period. So if people gold farm hard enough then they could literally own all the gold in the game, making it impossible to get gold except by buying it from gold farmers, who could use their monopoly on gold to charge insane prices.

OTOH a lot of the stuff you used to do to old cars you just... don't do at all anymore. It doesn't need that level of continual maintenance. It goes to a professional at the same frequency as before, and the smaller jobs that you used to do yourself are now elided entirely.

Sextro posted:I would like somebody to describe what it would look like if Tesla was "not allowed" to do the bad thing they are currently doing. Gonna pull their FCC licenses so they can't distribute the software? Is that even something the FCC is capable of doing? Find whoever at Tesla signed off on releasing the software (probably Elon), and inform them that they will face individual (not corporate) liability for any injuries or deaths resulting from Full-Self-Drive. Watch a software update disabling FSD be released 14 minutes later.

CommieGIR posted:These have actually been pretty common for almost half a decade now, and we're seeing ones that can even do chip and pin, which is why a lot of card issuers are moving to single use random card numbers that are assigned per use. Isn't the entire point of chip-and-pin that you can't read the private key off it? Reader sends a code, chip converts it into a different code and sends it back, without ever revealing the other half of the keypair.

Also presumably they get to treat you as a new hire and reset your progress towards earning any kind of benefits. They don't want anyone to be in a position for years and risk them becoming essential. Firing people regularly may be inefficient, but it reinforces everyone being an identical replaceable cog.

Main Paineframe posted:It's not as easy as "just form a union" in a multinational company with several thousand workers in a variety of fields, spread across 37 physical offices scattered across the globe, and with plenty of remote workers on top of that. And a union relies on the principle of "they can't fire all of us or the company will collapse". If the boss disagrees with this statement to the extent that they're already planning to fire everyone then you've got no bargaining power and there's nothing left to do but run for the lifeboats.
