  1. Here's one guy who went to a remote road to test. The Tesla failed against a carboard box with reflective material on it, but stopped at all speeds up to 55 mph for a pedestrian in the middle of nowhere. And this is a year-old version of the software. And this guy's soundtrack is horrible, but lots of real world pedestrian interactions with FSD where it almost looks like FSD... anticipates?
  2. I'm counting the pro-shot as a movie:
  3. Literally thousands of videos of FSD in action on YouTube showing it stopping for pedestrians of all sizes. The problem with that video isn't that it is crappy quality, but that the quality is good enough to see that there is an alert notification on the screen, but bad enough to not be able to read the notification. It just so happens that the notification on screen looks exactly like the one that comes up if you press the accelerator to go faster than FSD/autopilot is currently set at.
  4. O'Dowd has done several shady Tesla FSD takedown videos in the past. For example:
  5. I'm willing to have my mind changed by a good, transparent, test. I'm not willing to change my opinions about Tesla's FSD based on random BlueSky/X/Twitter/Reddit post without a lot of verification about the source, and surely not based on a Dan O'Dowd video, which this turned out to be. Show me time-synced video from inside the car showing system status and driver actions side-by-side with the external video, and I'll start paying attention to his videos. If I had realized from the beginning that this was an O'Dowd video, I wouldn't have even acknowledged it.
  6. I’m not absolving FSD here. It fucked up and that needs to be fixed. My issue is with the anti-Tesla “testers” who start with a pretext for their “testing” and work backwards from that. They are fundamentally incapable of testing in good faith. They had an important result but then had to manipulate a dramatic flair at the end.
  7. Dude. I’m not going to do a geometric proof that the child was hidden, but that screen grab doesn’t show what you are claiming. That dummy sure looks to be in line with the back edge of the car, thus hidden from an approaching vehicle.
  8. No shit. Stipulated from the beginning. If the organizers of this test would have left it at that, they would have made their point clearly. Throwing in a dummy smash at the end in an impossible timing scenario takes away from the validity of the test. They had one very valid test result but then tarnished it by throwing in a manipulated “child” strike at the end.
  9. Which I have already conceded is a huge fuck-up. The dummy smash at the end is just meat for the mob.
  10. Minus the school bus, no human driver was spotting or anticipating that “kid” in that scenario.
  11. That’s not what I said. Has nothing to do with the rate at which the “child” enters the roadway. It’s that the “child” is completely hidden from view by a parked vehicle until less than a second before impact. It’s an impossible scenario.
  12. Huge fuck-up not stopping for the school bus with its lights flashing and the sign out. I’m not quite as concerned with the extra dummy test thrown in for dramatic purposes. There isn’t a driving system on the planet that will stop in time to avoid the pedestrian with the timing they show in this test. The completely hidden dummy moves in front of the car less than a second before impact. Minus the school bus as a cue in this scenario, a human driver would hit that kid every time. You can see the car react and begin to stop - there just wasn’t enough time in this scenario.
  13. Zero. This is a great sportswashing opportunity for a corrupt regime. Playing nice when all eyes are on you provides great international cover for bad actors. Hell... the actual Nazis played somewhat nice in '36.
  14. Awesome. Someone to root for in the CWS.
  15. ell oh ell
  16. 100% this. I did a rewatch of the first immediately before watching this one on Saturday and the difference is jarring. The way he depicted someone with ASD in the first was nuanced and believable. He went full-on caricature in the second movie. The Justine twist at the end of the first one was great, but the army of kids on computers in this one felt like pandering.
  17. FUCK!!! This song has lived quietly in my sub-conscious for five decades, and now it's back with a vengeance.
  18. I know TV isn't real, but deep down a part of me was looking for liver damage on the list.
  19. I'm a bit disappointed that it took until posts #24 and #28 for these two replies.

    This false belief comes from a complete misunderstanding of scripture. In Matthew 21:18-19, we see what Jesus really meant: The real message of scripture is that "God hates figs."
  21. That was more obstruction than Goode got called for.
  22. Hell… I ain’t never even heard of anything like that.
