petabyte(bit)/second hasn’t anything to do with the transmission propagation rate, it has to do with the transmission bandwidth. Transmission delay has to do with the transmission propagation rate; as you noted, latency.

I often miss the weird stuff with the teeth and hands because the eyes always freak me out. A lot of ‘staring into your soul’ vibe form these videos. 

IMO it does not make sense to buy an EV if you are planning to rely on a charging network for anything outside of the occasional longer trip. If it is your commuter car, you’d better have a 40Amp+ charger in your garage or dedicated parking space. Anything else and you’re better off with a PHEV, HEV, or just regular…

When the sequel was announced, I hated the notion with the ferocity of a thousand suns. However, after watching this, and I might be horribly and inarguably wrong, there’s something here. The first film REALLY riled people up. So much anger. So much dismissal. The ferocity of the criticisms and the condemnations, at…

Really want to like this, but total lack of physical controls, not gauge cluster, and essentially touch controls on the steering wheel make this a no-go. Assumed no gauges meant standard HUD, but apparently not.

The woman added that Thompson sold the card sometime in June of 2024 – presumably after the fuel loop home was fixed on June 1 of the same year.

only do this if we know for sure how to rehydrate the layer. always need a rollback plan

Harbor Freight of course.

Plus, that $38k in Uber fees were never his to start with? Doesn’t Uber collect everything, and then pay him out what he is owed? Attributing that $38k in fees as if it were his income, seems a bit silly from a book keeping perspective. Seems like the article should really say that the Uber driver generated $103k in…

“Autopilot is popular because of the features that make it unsafe. Tesla can’t improve its safety without killing the user experience that people like.” - E.W. Niedermeyer

Who are these people that feel forced into small talk with the cashier? They say, “Hi, did you find everything you were looking for today?” I say, “Yes,” and that’s the end of it.

That’s definitely true for people who routinely only buy a little bit of groceries.   I have functioning cognitive and motor skills, but it’s still easier and faster to have a professional bag my weekly shop rather than my doing it on that tiny pedestal with a full cart’s worth of groceries.

It’s so interesting seeing people characterize the cashier as such a terrible experience. Recently I’ve been getting sick of the wrinklies being too slow at scanning their own groceries, the dude without a bag trying to juggle his haul and swipe his card, the guy typing in the names of weird veggies and failing to…

I finally gave up and got an iPhone Xs last year, but I think an SE-sized phone with the newer screens that extend to the edges could be just about perfect.

Completely disagree.  Phones are too damn big.  Period.  6 and a half inch screen?  Seriously?  Dude, you’re like the kid with the Bowmar brain on his belt in junior high.  Nobody wanted to sit with him either.  It’s supposed to be a portable phone, dammit.  Profiles like the Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact, and the…

The smartest thing could have done was to complain about the audio quality. “Sorry, hard to hear your questions. These are not as good as ours....”
