idk… I would say I have a good sense of humor and can make a joke out of anything, but did you really think this post was funny or necessary?
The definition of casualty:
Crash detect works! Even after they copied it from Android.
Thanks for that. I went nearly 30 years thinking casualty = death.
You were probably thinking fatalities.
What is wrong with you?! One person was killed, who knows what injuries the other victim suffered. Grow up.Someone upset with the Genius bar "repair" estimate?
Yes, and metal detectors, full body scanners, and a prohibition on liquids over 2 ounces.
Not true. The stories generally claim that self-driving was active when there is no evidence of that, and the system was actually off. Even the first responders have been documented lying - saying that "no one was behind the wheel", when full investigations prove them wrong. Most news stories sensationalizing Tesla crashes turn out to be partially or fully false. It's the nature of "news" - profit is the goal, not accuracy.
Although I understand your thought, the article says that the driver is in police custody, which would argue against a medical condition.
Everything is possible, but I don't know how much we're helping anyone by speculating.
You’re right. I was responding to someone else’s speculation with my own. I contributed to the problem that I was saying was reckless.
Me too. Unless I’m mistaken, I think the term is primarily used to describe military-related deaths/injuries, or at least this was the initial use of the word. I think it is more common for a report to list deaths and injuries separately.
Many Apple stores already have some type of barrier in front of them though.
That only works if you haven’t hit the limit for how many people you can block.
It can be confusing because sometimes all the casualties are deaths, like in many airplane crashes - so you get used to them being equivalent (Venn diagrams overlap completely), but, indeed, casualty is “killed or injured”. And, yeah, the military uses the term a lot (for them it has the implication of “how many soldiers are no longer fit to fight”).
