Apple definitely has a way of doing what is right sometimes, and forcing the industry’s hand to move forward.
… Sometimes. Sometimes this definitely backfires, but not this time.

TSLA doesn’t even pay dividends. Appreciate you pointing yourself out as horribly misinformed.
That’s not an EV specific thing. Hundreds of people will die TODAY in traffic related accidents, EV or not. We need to shift away from human drivers entirely.
Exactly. Also lidar is important in instances where you need millimeter precision. Its useful for calibrating camera systems in self driving cars but in order to drive safely you don’t need that level of detail about the world around the car. It makes no difference if a car or pedestrian is 72 or 73 inches away.
Actually, no you don’t. Lidar cannot dentify object’s specifically. Tesla does use lidar in their testing/prototype vehicles and they have to find any instances manually where these systems don’t agree. It always falls back to cameras.
I thought the “needs lidar” debate was settled years ago? Lidar cannot read signs. It is also prohibitively expensive to put in vehicles. If you’re going to drive with a neural network you need as much training data as possible, which means as many sensors in as many vehicles as possible.
If your cameras detect something the lidar does not, you trust the cameras, every time. Lidar can very easily misinterperet the world. It works great for simple robots who need to know where walls are and don’t need to specifially identify animals, people, obstacles, speed bumps, construction zones, etc.
Theres also the simple fact that humans can drive just fine without having evolved a lidar sensor.
So he demanded that the driver assistance software be as safe as possible before public release? paving the way for full self driving 6-7 years later? is this a bad thing?
Contrary to what clickbait articles lead you to believe these spikes are incredibly brief. https://www.ercot.com/gridmktinfo/dashboards/systemwideprices
I’m really not sure how else an electrical grid is supposed to artificially encourage lowering demand than to fluctuate pricing. Lots of new appliances now can connect to the grid and shut themselves down temporarily when costs are high, this is an opt-in system that without pricing tied to it most people would ignore. If you need to use electricity at high demand time it had better be important.
And yes I realize in an ideal world every electrical grid would be 10,000% oversized and be able to handle infinite demand. That is unfortunately not the world we live in.
x86 has been the standard for waaayyyyyy too long
That is absolutely a valid reason to regulate EMR, as interference is totally a thing if you have too many devices using overlapping frequencies, etc.
Unfortunately, France is making a big stink for the stupid reasons instead: https://www.reuters.com/technology/why-has-france-banned-sales-apples-iphone-12-2023-09-13/
France’s radiation watchdog has banned sales of Apple’s (AAPL.O) iPhone 12 after tests that it said showed the smartphone breached European radiation exposure limits.
The Agence Nationale des Frequences (ANFR) said on Tuesday the model’s Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) - a measure of the rate of radiofrequency energy absorbed by the body from a piece of equipment - was higher than legally allowed.
What a sad, sad world full of morons we live in.
I really want to see someone fund/perform an experiment, that would hopefully put any doubts to rest. It might take 10-20 years to do but it would be worth it:
Create 2 completely shielded rooms. In one of the rooms, completely blast the inside of it with 5G, 4G, All the Gs, Wi-Fi, whatever 24/7. Every single kind of EMR that anyone has doubts of. You can even include future spectrum, whatever. Run it at 3x-5x the amplitude of anything anyone could reasonably expect to come across in the world.
Now, Using only organic and living material (mice, monkeys, plants, single-celled organisms, humans, whatever): confirm which one of them has the EMR turned on. If EMR was dangerous you should obviously see some negative effects. Take as much time as necessary to confirm your findings.
THEN maybe we can stop all this nonsense and point back to the study. Except I know some people would say “You tested 300 GHz, what about 301.5 GHz!!! That one is totally dangerous!”
thats assuming 100% efficiency. which is impossible
https://github.com/johang/btfs btfs lets you straight up mount a torrent as a directory and stream it. Most torrent clients also have an option to download parts in order so you can stream.
The base 15 has the processor from the 14 pro, which does not have the USB 3.0 controller on it.
Just like the base 14 had the processor from the 13 pro …and the base 13 had the processor from the 12 pro
you get the idea.
Who says the google pixel is good for privacy? Google?
you should only need to reboot when updating the kernel. Why are you rebooting? Is it because the system is unresponsive?
oh ffs. Emitting electromatic radiation does not mean radioactive.
And besides the point there is absolutely 0 evidence to indicate EMR is harmful to humans, unless it is of high enough magnitude to cause burns. Or short enough wavelength to be ionizing. None of which is even close to being an issue in any cellular device
and it was 5 years ago at least.
I wish some propaganda machine would fan these flames of positivity.
