Tesla might soon be planning to limit Autopilot, but just for those drivers who abuse it.

Following several crashes and one fatality, Autopilot updates in Tesla's version 8.0 software may include programming that limits functions for Tesla drivers who disregard safety prompts.

Tesla is planning to disable Autopilot's Autosteer function for drivers who habitually ignore the car's commands to retake the steering wheel, according to Electrek.

If a Tesla driver habitually ignores reminders to "Hold Steering Wheel," Autopilot will disengage. What's more, it will not allow the driver to reengage the system until the car has come to a complete stop and put into Park. Read more...

      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
