Be seeing you.

Its like McDonald's jingle: Bah bah.. bah dat bah ..I'm lovin it !

These are not systems intended for economic every day drivers.

This is a supercar. You use features like this on an autobahn or similar road where there are no obstacles of that nature.

This is a feature like a maximum speed unlock on Veyron. You don't use it unless you know exactly where you are.

I'm unconvinced that rear and side facing thrusters will be road legal due to problems they will cause to other cars around you. As for jumping thrusters, I can already see some old rich boomer stuck in an overhead road sign because he thought he was adjusting music when he told the car to jump.

Fans sucking car to the road on the other hand are an excellent idea.

Technically you can still die from rupturing of carbon fiber pressure vessel with this thing.

This car uses them to store compressed air after all.

"A big part of that work is making smarter use of memory and system resources," says Navjot Virk"

How about getting it right the first time....

AI is a scapegoat here. Prices, and the cut to SNAP benefits equates to the loss in jobs here. We can blame AI for every thing that goes wrong in the meantime.

Whats a point of a screen when you've got a dead battery? If you skip the screen, the battery will llast and you'll look healthy. Its a hipster gadget, not a yoga class.

Who is Al ?

The guy in the Paul Simon song?

I'm certain that the courts agree he must find a way to pay billions of dollars of damages to our pain and suffering.

Said the frog to the scorpion "cough up the green!"

....Unless we can be bought off with crypto fascist free speech corporate oligarchies. If Democracy and Communism both lose and make everyone pay, then the leadership is the problem. When our enemy is the best solution then winning is suicidal. Suicide is still homocide, it really doesn't matter who you murder as long as you win, even if it kills you. Like a marriage. Then you win after you suffer to death. But at least you win, and you were already born right. You just had to prove it to the losers, who are dead. Ironically, thats when you get the 72 virgins, a pension, healthcare and free swag. But no taxes ..or elections... A place where democracy and communism are gone. No Voting, No Work, Death is the only escape. Do unto others, you're already screwed. The irony runs deep since everyone here already escaped. Now, we are the native savage welcoming committee. Humanity, what a concept: Civilization is for losers. War and Markets prove it with human casualties. Life was so simple before scarcity.

Same as it ever was. Soylent Green is people. Now in extra crispy

If you go old enough, you have to take into account that memory bandwidth was terrible.

On a Pentium 1, I believe RAM can do somewhere around 100MB/s. And sure, it gets better later, but still. If you consider that a serious RAID-5 for instance, you're reading at a minimum 3 drives, and computing parity, then yes, you can easily take most of your memory's bandwidth just on that. It makes a lot of sense then to offload stuff to a RAID card.

These days hard disks are laughably slow compared to the rest of the computer, but it didn't use to be quite like that. A high end SCSI drive of the era might do maybe 20 MB/s, which is a good fraction of the system RAM's capability. Put just 3 there and it's starting to get tricky.

Also, we have the benefit that some slowness stopped to matter. If you're RAID5-ing 3 x 8GB/s NVMes and not getting the ideal performance out of it there's lots of cases where that doesn't matter because you don't have a workload capable of doing anything with what even a single drive is capable of providing anyway.

Just imagine, if you could be taxed more for unproductive infrastructure. Everything in the world would be solved, if you would just pay everything to the government, and they could re-distribute all of your income to others.

The entire reason why industrialization has delivered the promises of socialism, while socialism brought mass scarcity everywhere, is that productive activity generates resources that can be spent elsewhere.

Meanwhile taking more and more from existing industries, only to fund unproductive things (i.e. electric lines that don't allow for more production to offset their costs) improvershes everyone. It's why PRC has as many problems with useless infrastructure they built as they do. It's why their property market collapsed a few years ago.

Loudoun county is a well known example. There are several others.

This isn't really new or interesting. If you manage to get a lot of new industry in, you can tax that industry instead of your residents. Meaning you can fund more services, while taking less tax.
