It's a reference from an old interview with Gabe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQweFurRz4g > It's a bit like saying it's okay to sneak into a movie theater because the prices fo…

If no one cared about cash flow and profitability wouldn't SpaceX stock go up instead of down?

Happened to me many times now. I'm at a loss for words. It seems like a fever dream I can't wake-up from.

My Macbook Pro 13" Early 2015 w/ 8 GB RAM and 128 GB SSD is still very usable for what most people commonly use a laptop for - browsing the web, e-mail and streaming.

Have they been successful?

Most open source software tooling Were designed to be dynamically linked. It is non-standard to statically link things together, which causes various random issues.

On what reasoning do you make this prediction? Just because corporations are mandating their employees to use AI right now does not mean it will continue.

Unfortunately it'll take time for certain companies to release their applications on Linux distro's. So right now I manage with WSL2 + Win 11.

It's easier to distribute software fully self-contained, if you ignore the pain of statically linking everything together :)

> people will still invest in grid independence Most inverters don't work without grid synchronization. E.g. you lose electricity from your provider and your batteries / stored ene…

Channel bandwidth for Cat-M is 1.4 MHz. You won't be doing any decoding w/ a tinySA either.

It'd be cheaper to buy an RTL-SDR and an LTE antenna than this tinySA. I'm not convinced that a layman would have enough practical experience with radio's to detect these signals t…

It would be nice to have an opt-in platform where you could select products that you'd like to see ads for. For example, you're looking for a TV or automobile and you want to see d…

Equipment that isn't controlled by software is also prone to failure. Unintentional airbag deployment is a very rare phenomenon.

The OBD2 port is behind a gateway so it is not the same.

Because there are regulations for the infotainment system as well. For example, you can't watch videos or read SMS/messages. Not to mention that the infotainment system likely has …

You're part of a small minority of people that want to had old and outdated _infotainment_ systems. The only exception to this is that people want to have climate control knobs and…

I don't understand the reasoning you are making here. Cars have had advanced safety features like emergency breaking for a long time now (e.g. Toyota Crown Majesta 2003). Furthermo…

You're not using a smartphone?

The more premium Opel Astra K models had a phone holder built-in (optional accessory, but you get the point) that would also charge the phone. Practically no one bought it so they …
