The landing smoke isn’t for effect- it’s actually function.
Tesla didn’t say”let’s make a big smoke effect so it looks cool when it lands and peels out from white smoke”
- no, it literally flys and lands BECAUSE of the cool white smoke.
(Which is effing and literally cool)
While I do love Security Improvements, what I’d REALLY love to see on my 2020 Model X is any flavor of FSD v14 lite…
Any timeline?

What is the point of Dolby Atmos?
A practical take from a certified mix engineer. @Dolby
I'm super passionate about the @Dolby Atmos format, and proud to have earned this certification from @Avid! credly.com/badges/add90d0e-3… via @credly
Boom! After 30 years of working with Pro Tools I finally made it official @Avid. credly.com/badges/64861deb-9… via @credly
So I’ve had my @Behringer Flow 4V for a few days now. It’s very cool, and very weird.
They need to come up with a way to normalize audio files on the device itself, automatically. With normalization they sound great, no noise, no distortion: beautiful. Without normalization, importing the files into DaVinci Resolve, they are essentially unusable.

Daughter just passed her state psychologist licensing test last week. It was an online test, "supervised." Masters also in hand because it's required.
First job interview - offer is $3600/month for the first 6 months. She's expected to see 30 patients/wk. Lose 5% of those patients for any reason in that period and she's fired.
If she maintains, pay goes to $7500/month but she has to continue to "perform".
Her job here is not to help, but to foster dependence. If at any time she helps someone become self sufficient, she's risking her own livelihood.
This is the very definition of perverse incentives, and it is one of the clearest views of what we see so much of in medical field writ large that I've seen yet (and I've seen a lot).
Know this every time you talk to your therapist. You're nothing more than a paycheck to most of them. Especially if you're going through a clinic.
Most illegitimate medical field of all time
Won't completely write off "chemical imbalance" as a factor, but the way the go about treating it is garbage
You don't have a Xanax or an amphetamine deficiency
You're not lacking endogenous quetiapine
Some of the chemslop might be useful for stabilizing someone in a real crisis
But that's not happening when someone's seeing a psych monthly
They're getting fucked up longterm
They're getting numbed out
The anxiety or depression or whatever that's functioning as a signal for biological, spiritual, and mindset problems you need to address gets dulled, and therefore NEVER solved
It's the exact thing as drinking or doing rec drugs for that reason
You live the rest of your life as a lower consciousness shell of your former self and they tell you this is good
And the sad thing is most of them are brainwashed to think it is a good thing
Random thought:
“I really should clean up my language”
Next thought:
“Uhhhhh! But that’s so fucking hard though!!!!”
