Pretty bold to have launched in a city that already has a functional driverless cab service, and with people that now have expectations of something good. I don’t know how delusional they must be to think they will compare well to Waymo.

These guys should try the existing Waymo service in Austin to get an idea of what an actually good ‘robotaxi’ is before tying this junk.

Hard to believe ‘Fat Woman Falls Down Hole’ is 18 years old. It had a renaissance when featured on Alan Partridge Alpha Papa.

The crazy thing is, it’s not 5% of the budget it’s 5% of GDP. Usually a government budget is somewhere around 20% of GDP. So spending 5% of GDP on NATO would mean about 25% of all government spending going on the military.

I once went through a BART gate line by mistake, I was trying to get to the trolley service and misread the signage. I immediately exited. The charge: $6.20. Still can’t believe it.

Jet lag must be pretty tough at 78

is expected to serve as Air Force One

The security implications of this are mind blowing.

I tried this on my 6700XT I had to play in 720p, the performance was that bad. Any of the available upscalers just made it look worse.

I upgraded to a more modern card since then and it works fine, but if you’re on something like a 6700xt I’d be wary or prepare to refund if you don’t like the performance.

When I think of the Online Safety Act I think of Humphrey Appleby in Yes Minister. There’s a line where he says “The Official Secrets act isn’t to protect secrets, it’s to protect officials”.

The Online Safety Act exists to protect the safety of the government, not its people.

‘Soar’ is fine. It’s taking about the relative value of the currency vs the dollar. Not the attitude of the countries toward the dollar, where indeed ‘sour’ would be appropriate.

Ripples from Friday and Monday’s record rally in the Taiwan dollar are now spreading outward, driving surges for currencies in Singapore, South Korea, Malaysia, China and Hong Kong.

‘Vibe coding’ is where you code only with prompts and never look at the generated code.

Seems like a great way to create insecure unmaintainable code if you ask me.

The Tory party purge during Brexit doomed them. All the heavyweights were booted out and there was nothing credible left.

Absolutely the most terrifying aspect of driving on the Interstate.

Yeah this article is woefully uninformed. Author seems to be butt hurt about GPU pricing rather than any serious interest in how the protocol actually works.

You mean just maybe Tesla isn’t worth more than all other car makers combined. I can’t believe it.

Maybe if that $56bn bonus goes through he’ll think of something. Heh.

As a British guy who worked in the USA for a while, my colleagues couldn’t fathom that I had no interest in going to Disneyland. It was kinda weird the obsession some of them had with it.

“The same thing happened in my First Term,” he added

And somehow they voted for him again

I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s due to the ‘don’t call them exemptions’ covering the console but not separate controllers.

Ah yes. The beautiful clean coal we heard so much about.
