unaffected by EMP were everywhere.

They called them books.

Out of curiosity what the range and/or power for an EMP pulse to brick my microSD with Zim files on it?

Wondering what's the actual risk of such a thing happening, what kind of scenarii would this require?

people on Lemmy could have some empathy and not just assume that everyone driving a Tesla is sanctioning anything that Elon Musk does.

Costs 1 EUR and takes 10sec to put a sticker on a Tesla that says "I bought this before Elon went mad" and plenty of people on Lemmy would understand I bet. It's more of a gesture to show that one having a Tesla does not support the actions of the its CEO. A Tesla without even a sticker on is assumed to be owned by someone who knows yet either does not care or even supports Musk.

True, but most CEOs are unknown to consumers, only to employees and share-holders. Usually there is a "culture" of a company that is a blend of PR, advertising, marketing, etc. Here Musk became associated with the brand though. Tesla existed before Musk and worked well... but was nowhere near a popular. I hate Musk yet I feel it's fair (and please if you have data showing I'm wrong, do share, I'd love to remove any wrongful attributed credit from him) to say he made Tesla enormously more popular than before he invested in it. So... you are right in most cases people buy cars, and other products, without knowing about the CEO but that specifically does not apply to Tesla where the hype precisely came from a self branded as IronMan.

demanding that we prove that we’re using copilot to generate code

Because that's how one gets value right? It's not because the tool is so efficient people WANT to use it even though they should not (e.g. due to commercial secrets)... no instead you force them to use it. /s

I don’t take any news written in English with any seriousness for these two countries.

Where do you get trusted news then for these two countries?

I'd take that bet. I imagine at least some drivers would notice something sus' (due to depth perception, which should be striking as you get close, or lack of ANY movement or some kind of reflection) and either

  • slow down
  • use a trick, e.g. flicking lights or driving a bit to the sides and back, to try to see what's off

or probably both, but anyway as other already said, it's being compared to other autopilot systems, not human drivers.

Seems I misunderstood, if it's solely the branding (of that implementation) then it's fine. I thought they relied on AWS itself.

Thanks for the clarification, that makes sense, closing the issue then.

I'd be curious, they use Minio which puts S3 first. Does it mean Docs (the official instance) is relying on AWS?

If so IMHO that's not a great default EU sovereignty.
