Because, unless you're driving a forklift, the point of a vehicle's rotation is in line with the rear wheels, meaning you can take turns at a much more acute angle when reversing than going forwards. Which makes backing into spaces much easier.
Notice that most of the half-assed parking jobs you see are generally people who have driven forward and left the car parked at a diagonal half out of the space, because getting the vehicle lined up in that situation is more difficult.
Play stupid geopolitical games, win stupid prizes...
Sold my Model 3 yesterday. In a sane world, where Tesla is not run by a fascist, I would have considered getting another one as my ownership experience was generally pretty positive.
Instead, my new Polestar arrives next week.
Yeah I can imagine it taking time getting used to as a new player. I played the original as a kid on DOS so the UI is deeply ingrained lol.
I decided to set up Fedora on my new laptop as it was either take a chance on that or spend like 3 hours debloating a Win11 install.
It's been over 10 years since I last tried dailying Linux, we have come a long way in that time. Everything just worked out of the box. No fucking around needed.
Even relatively niche stuff like my thunderbolt dock and the laptop's fingerprint sensor was picked up. And, thanks to the investment Valve has been putting into Wine and Proton, pretty much every game I've tried has worked with no issue.
Next time my desktop is due for a clean install I'll definitely be doing the same there.
Didn't he become a Commodore, not an Admiral?
In Voyager, he’s shown to have pips. In fact, switching him over to Command mode shows a deliberate animation of pips showing up on hid collar.
The EMH is never shown with pips on Voyager. The "ECH" was shown with pips appearing on its first appearance, however:

The entire ECH subroutine was created as the result of The Doctor's daydreaming, so the visualisation of a rank appearing out of thin air makes sense in that context.
The only other time the ECH mode was used in a genuine emergency (Season 7, Episodes 16/17), he did not have pips.
There was an entire TNG episode (Season 6, Episode 12) whose plot centered around this:

Moriarty was reactivated by mistake, and took the ship hostage, demanding to be able to leave the holodeck.
Geordi and Data spent half the episode experimenting with beaming (inanimate) holographic objects off the holodeck, to no avail. With that said:

Their transporter turned out to be a holographic fake (and so was Geordi), so who knows if the results were valid.
I can't speak from experience as I don't own any Amazon devices, but I have read reports that it seems to work fine with the FireTV variant of Android.
The dev has only tested it against Chromecast with Google TV, with that said I'm using it on a Shield TV and a Shield Pro and it runs fine on both.
A few thousand years later, Ed decides to create ~~20~~ 18 superhuman clones of himself, and things start to get pretty grimdark.
Unlike oil, rare earth minerals can be recycled to a degree. What is today your car battery may end up in 10+ years as someone's house battery, or a power bank or other low-load energy store. The raw materials can eventually be recovered to an extent as well.
A resource disaster is inevitable either way as nobody wants to give up the convenience that we have become accustomed to. Encouraging affluent economies to adopt EVs is pure damage limitation at this point, our biosphere is already fucked from over a century of waste emissions, the least we can do is try and find solutions that don't involve burning fossilized plant matter for every car journey.
No shit. Chess programs are specifically built and optimised to the nth degree for this specific use case and nothing else. They do not share the massive compute overhead and convoluted nondeterministic nature of an LLM.
This is like drag racing an F1 car and a Camry and being surprised at the result.
