Yes. It does suggest it might be a bit more than precautionary.

Mind you, The Donald has spoken on the matter. Wise, wise words.

Meh. Software issue ain't it? They just need to leave it plugged in overnight and download the new iOs.

Thought they did that after the Lion Air crash a month ago, clearly needs a 2.0.1 update

:nod: The Donald's right. We've made it too complex, left it up to the machines and they've basically fvcked it imo.

My sister used to live near the Mulhouse crash site.

They're fooling no-one trying to pronounce it 'Mooloose', btw. It's Mulhaus and we all know it.

Self checkouts at supermarkets - fúcking unexpected items, rescan item, plase bag item, can't buy alcohol without human interaction, etc.

one of the local supermarkets has given over, probably about, two-thirds of their checkouts to self-scan or self-checkouts.

The place is constantly teeming with píssed off shoppers and assistants dealing with flashing red lights.

They do keep unfortunately running people over. Mind you, if you only stick one Lidar unit on the roof despite even the people who make Lidar saying that's not enough AND employ ex-cons as your 'safety drivers', you are probably going to kill pedestrians.

I'm looking at you, Tesla.
