Futurology@futurology.today•Earth’s climate is approaching irreversible tipping pointsEnglish
97·7 months agoI don’t think we’re past all the climate tipping points; that’d start to cause runaway changes. Swift action right now would still provide a chance to lessen the impact.
The worst case scenarios would be truly disastrous though, and would cause secondary human conflicts due to unavailability of basic resources.

3·9 months agoIt has to be Tesla that’s liable I guess, when there’s no safety driver. Although I didn’t find any good example of a legal precedent in such cases.

Autonomous Vehicles@futurology.today•Tesla's social media posts falsely implied that its cars are robotaxis, NHTSA warnsEnglish
8·1 year agoDamn it looks even more likely as per this article:

But with Musk now firmly in Trump’s inner circle, the billionaire is in a stronger position to influence development of federal rules that would put more of the cars on the road — an approach he proposed in a recent call with financial analysts.
