The link that I posted previously was the first result of a duck duck go search for 'Tesla door handles fire'. There are literally dozens of articles from different publications saying the same thing. You believing Tesla's lies that the door handles are safe doesn't make it so.
@randahl
The point isn't that they're electronic or mechanic, it's that real-life experiences have shown that flush door handles are death traps.
Yes the design is done in such a way that the handles should come out when the car is involved in an accident. The key word here is 'should'. When (not if) it doesn't, you die.
@randahl
There is reliable data out there that people have been burned alive in multiple incidents in Teslas because the car was on fire, and the door handles were recessed so people couldn't get them out.
e.g., https://www.autoblog.com/electric/report-at-least-15-fatalities-linked-to-tesla-doors-failing-to-open-in-fires
Sure they're pretty, but they're also a death trap.

The FOSDEM server team runs mirrorbrainz on video.fosdem.org, I don't know how that decides that the video is available on at least one mirror, but what causes the spikes in availability of videos must be in there somewhere.
@fosdem
The dispatcher does a HEAD request for a single file of every talk that is in the publishing state, then inspects the returned data. If that indicates that the video is public, it moves to the next state.

@fosdem
Pity. My colleague sighed up for that and is wondering if there is space in another workshop that he could still attend instead?
See https://review.video.fosdem.org/overview and https://dashboard.fosdem.org (the 'SReview stats' dashboard) to follow along at home.
If you are doing genuinely good things, and making the world better, I don't give a fuck why you're doing it. You want recognition and attention, so what. You're just doing it, because your friends are idgaf, you feel pressured from other people, who cares. We can spend so much time tearing apart motives and guess what, it doesn't matter, and most of the people screaming, "They're just doing it for attention!", aren't doing jack shit. We don't need to wait to do good things for the "right reasons", we can just do them. And we can most definitely shut up, about why other people are.
