if you bought IBM gear and it broke, it was simply considered the cost of doing business,

IBM produced Canadian Phoenix Pay system has entered the chat with a record 0 firings.

People also tend to forget all the compliance issues that can come around hosting content, and using someone with expertise in that can reduce a very large burden. It’s not something that would hit every industry, but it does hit many.

Sounds like that would draw even more tourists to come and see all of them and have that debate, better start building even more golden pagoda’s to account for the extra extra tourists.

You know the saying, 600 years ago was the best time to build more golden pagodas if you wanted them today, but the next best time is today if you want 600 year old golden pagodas in 600 years.

Yubikeys. I think everyone should get a couple (need 2 in case 1 lost)

I thought the point was to get them killed as fodder before they could return home.

They maybe get a few Ukrainian kills in, and no longer have to pay to incarcerate a person.

They can’t even get that right?

FAFO

I think the normalize is a big part. When I go to music festivals there are quite a lot of topless women and no one cares. It kinda feels novel the first time or two, and then it’s like, okay, this is normal.

Normalizing it in the general public would be a lot harder though.

Definitely just the guy that preached hate, they don’t care about the kids, but I am curious if they held one for the elected democratic members that were assassinated a few months prior.

Nah, it was ThisIsMyRedditName (jk)

I wouldn’t call that an ideal implementation, but if they implemented it properly, there’s no way for the website to know who you are, and there’s no way for the website to tell the authority you visited their site. If there is, it’s not actually a ZKP and it’s a failure of the technology (and I assume at that point be against the law). The only abuse that should ever be possible is that the authority knows you are using tokens, not where.

The only required trust that should be needed, is that the authority proved your age in the first place, such as when you get your drivers license, and that they actually implemented all the cryptography properly (which a 3rd party could verify)

Edit: And if there’s concern about token sharing somehow, it should be locked behind your biometics in a way that again doesn’t leak any information, which they saw you encode when they verified your identity.

Edit: think something like a programmable credit card with a key that can’t be removed, but the card can be programmed with an age by the authority and locked by a biometric. You go in, plug the card in, they add the age and their part of the key, you scan your fingerprint on it, and then you’re done. They never see your key. You then use it anywhere it’s needed and it never goes back to the central authority. Give it a limited lifespan so it has to be renewed once a year or something.

Well that’s awesome. I had heard Germany did a ZKP solution, I didn’t realize it was EU law.

I don’t really expect anywhere but the EU to do that though. ZKP are really the only way to do it if it’s going to be done.

but this doesn’t necessarily mean that the identity verification company is reporting to the government which people have initiated age verification, or for which websites.

Oh sweet summer child.

Unless it’s designed to not be capable of doing it (its not), they are doing it and it’s the intended plan.

It becomes a saftey issue when there’s enough to cause pitting or gouging, which in turn reduces the surface area you can brake on. You’ll fail before that point. You’ll fail at the point that using the brakes can clear them and let you pass.

It means the test is too strict.

Rust can be a real problem, but you can fail before it is a saftey problem.

It’s not a serious saftey issue at the level that would fail the car.

If you are gung ho on regen and never use/clear your brakes, you could definitely get to the point of it being legitimately dangerous, and that 100% needs to be found during an inspection and resolved, but that’s not what’s happening here in a lot of cases. This isn’t a OEM problem, it’s driver education around something entirely new problem. (edit: There are a lot of signs that something is wrong before it gets dangerous.)

Oh shit, I didn’t realize this was Denmark, i was thinking of the German one. In the German one, Tesla was only 1-2% above the next worst one which wasn’t an EV. And the reason Tesla would have more issues with rust is the reasons I listed above.

Where do you see the actual numbers/ranking the article you posted doesn’t show that, but the first thing it calls out is brakes (among all the others)

Edit this is the quote from the article

It is especially the fault groups “brake equipment”, “lamping equipment”, “axles, wheels and tires” and “controlldom” that the cars fail

Regulation regarding rust on the brake discs is very clear, and trivial to fix. So why wasn’t it fixed?

It’s not something to “fix” like that.

It’s there one day and its not the next. If it’s there, you fail.

It just depends on if you’re using them or not and the weather at the time. If you take the time to go to a shop for a pre-inspection (not everyone will), and they see rust, they’ll just tell you to go use your brakes. That’s the fix.

Tesla wasn’t going to be last if not for this rust issue.

Edit: Just to be more clear - If you drive your car in the rain, park it for a few days or even overnight and check it, you’ll have rust. You don’t fix that in any way other than using them. OEMs don’t just fix that.

Tesla’s high failure rate is primarily due to rust on the brakes from people using regen. Rust will form on all brakes if left unused, it’s just a matter of using them. There was also an issue with the front suspension that required a service bulletin at the time that was legit, but wasn’t a saftey thing.

There’s a few things that could lead to Tesla having higher rust rates over other EVs

• Tesla might have stronger regen so people use the brakes less.
• Tesla has a strong 1 pedal driving option which further reduces braking if enabled [0 brake pedal usage needed to come to complete stop, it will blend in brakes for the last few km/h]
• For cars that use blended braking anywhere, they may initiate it sooner than later.

Either way on an EV, you need to use your brakes on occasion or rust will form. Using the brakes clears the rust.

Edit: Essentially, this is a case of the facts are true, but the facts don’t always tell the whole truth. If you walk away from reading about this report thinking Tesla is the least reliable car, you’ve been mislead, unintentionally or not.

The Canadian and US autosector are heavily intertwined. BYD destroying the US or Canadian market, will also destroy the Canadian sector which is already on edge.
