Thanks for pointing that out! It turns out that the latest update to qBittorrent started binding to all available adapters. I just set it to only use my VPN's adapter and all seems to be fine now. Thanks again!

They're only opening it up to residents bit by bit. They've shown no interest in opening it up to tourists.

Presumably it will only be available for tourists once it's available to absolutely anyone.

I know I'm late on this, but..

"That means residents and visitors to San Francisco will be able to pay a fare to ride in a driverless taxi, ushering in new automated competition to cab and ridehail drivers." [1]

I'm surprised that no one has said anything about the fact that this is put out by a VPN company!

I also could not find their name on the map. It doesn't mean that it's not there, I just couldn't find them. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

The only thing I find a VPN useful for is torrenting w/o your ISP knowing. In my case, I use Surfshark for torrenting so that Comcast can't send me any of those pesky letters.

While I differ from others responding, in the fact that I do find pain relief from cannabis, this is not the place to get your information from [1].

> we tried to duplicate the experience a tourist might have bopping around the city in a driverless taxi.

Tourists are probably going to be the last cohort to get access to Waymo.

clsec · 2 years ago

Why is that? It's a fully public taxi service that will probably be heavily marketed in Fisherman's Wharf/Pier 39.

It only recently went from “closed beta for free” to “charges anyone who wants to get on”. SF just cleared them to take fares.

clsec · 2 years ago

No, the California Public Utilities Commission just approved them to take fares. Unfortunately San Franciscans have had very little, if anything, to say in any of this.

A yearly food cost of $4,686 for a single adult w/o children in San Francisco County? Not quite, more like $6,000-7,200 per year or $500-$600/mo.

A lot of it isn't actually news at all: it's news entertainment.

It's very similar to how professional wrestling isn't real wrestling, but actually 'wrestling entertainment'.

I call this the 'WWE-ification' of the news and politics.

I can't even count the number of times Taylor Swift and her concert tour have been on the news in the past two weeks.
