He said they could make a bomb in a couple weeks if needed. No specifics on delivery or quality.

Edit: sounds like kyiv is denying the claim made by some insider. So guess this isn’t likely true.

There were some patent fights involved that resulted in features being altered.

That cant explain it all though.

Just any voice assistant in the kitchen to set cooking timers.

Are they worried people will bypass a speed limiter and go faster on the 1000w motor?

Kinda defeats the purpose of doing it private and local.

I wouldn’t trust any claims a 3rd party service makes with regards to being private.

I’d be surprised if any insurance worldwide didn’t take things into account as described.

Even more important to get it sooner than later.

Maximum discount is usually somewhere around 20years so you’re already going into your 50s before you can get that now if you ever decide to drive in the future.

So, I skimmed all the answers and I think everyone is ignoring a critically important aspect.

As others have said, yes you should get your license for the flexibility it’ll give you. You never know when your life circumstances might change and you need a car, and with graduated licensing it may be over a year or two before you have a full license.

Now let’s say you decide fuck it and don’t get it.

You turn 45 and you finally need it for some reason so you get it.

How many years have you had your license when you then go to insure your first car?

0 years

You know what that means? They’ll wreck you on insurance. Even the idea of getting something semi nice (I mean you’re 45 and can afford it) will cost you thousands more in premiums for years to come.

However if you get your license today, if you were hypothetically 16, that’s 29 years of ‘experience’ that various insurers will count, and you’ll have exceptionally better premiums.

Not getting it ASAP is going to cost more and more money every year you delay it, up to many thousands of dollars in the future, if you ever change your mind.

I tried doing a dual boot to Mint awhile back, I did the mint backup at the start like it suggests, changed some things, broke it, restored from the backup thinking it was great id already made one, and broke the WHOLE pc.

I had to pull the battery on the BIOS to get it to go beyond a black screen when turning on.

It was terrible.

It seem to recall at the time recommendations about not doing dual boot, and if you wanted to dual boot, remove the main OS drive when you install Linux. Then put it back in.

I feel like something like https://www.storj.io/ is on the path to what we would want/need?

There might be some additional requirements for a true CDN to ensure data is closer to where it’s needed and in as many regions as needed though with the right amount of bandwidth. The data gets stored all over the place, but that doesn’t mean its optimal. But they do seem to claim it’s faster on their website…

Edit: For those not wanting to click, TLDR is they use excess storage around the world and make it accessible anywhere, and safe from failures. People with excess storage can join the network if they have enough storage/bandwidth and pass some tests. Their API is S3 compatible.

This boat was meant for one lake

And that’s just what it’ll do.

None of these days this boat is going find another lake.

I got this boat I gotta tow 150 miles, sure glad I can choose the better herpes, and definitely better than years ago when my only choice was cancer!

It’s the Hummer. 205kwh (311miles) vs 123kwh (320 miles CyberBeast/340 AWD).

At least the Silverado while heavier, gets more range which if you really need the range for towing, is beneficial.

Can you believe those Tesla Model 3 LR. They weigh 4,034 lbs, and it’s a SEDAN! ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS! The comparable ICE Mercedes-Benz A-Class only weighs 3395 lbs, what was Tesla thinking!

Sure, but it’s weight, for what it is, isn’t absolutely ridiculous and is actually best in class.

You can format the Mac and put Linux on it and get updates forever as well.

Edit: or you could when it was x86… not sure where Mx stand on that.

The cybertruck (6653 lbs) weighs less than a Ford 150 lightning (6745lbs) and Rivian R1T (7148lbs)

It’s not even worth looking up the Silverado or Hummer with their humongous batteries

All EV full size trucks are very heavy due to the batteries right now.

For the cybertruck, the stainless steel design actually allowed them to reduce weight by the steel being part of the structure, thus reducing or removing the need for things like side impact crash structures

I was thinking indoor hydroponics. Vertical farming.

Way less water than traditional growing. Like 90% less or something like that, but the LEDs aren’t cheap and use a lot if power. Also a lot less space.

Oh you’re right about the food for it. I wasn’t thinking about that. I can’t see any way they’d get those to parity even if it was room temperature.

Edit: Oh just a thought, but if we were able to somehow able to get the nutrients from things we were going to compost. But I have a feeling that’s not how that would happen, and that they wouldn’t be the proper nutrients for growing. Maybe way out in the future though like in Back To The Future, Mr. Fusion garbage fuel! Fresh meat from waste!

Growing plants outdoors takes a lot of water, and growing them indoors takes a lot of energy for the lighting.

Since lab grown meat won’t need all that light, energy costs might be lower, but maybe the energy to keep the growth happening at the right temperature will be quite high. You could offset some of that though with where its grown. Ultimately if we can do it close to room temperature that would be ideal, but I have no idea what the requirements are.

Overall though it might be exceptionally environmentally and climate friendly in it’s own rights, not just compared to raising the animals to kill them.
