This comes across as naivety to the point of trolling their own employees. It might be worth following where those particular executives go, and to maybe avoid being involved with those companies with services and the like if you have options.

r/TCL is worth a mention

People very much need this. Making them visually more fitting, less distracting, would be a nice next step.

This won't replace the mixer I run my audio through, though. A bit of a pain, and you need a mixer, but try it if you can.


It is bad audio processing; "too good" rather, as if the silver screen was the only place anyone watched movies.


It's not even that, I couldn't hear large parts of Oppenheimer, having paid a hefty premium for a cinema with a good sound system.


I've watched these developers make the game for years now. I hardly believed they would succeed. Big congrats.


you might be thinking of skyblivion that's a separate thing this official remaster was only announced and released today.


Indeed I was, thanks. I had a late morning, thanks for catching that.


Fujitsu has been an astounding company ime, just premium hardware

Has been. Now they are making "quantum". Whatever that means. (But hey, if Microsoft can do it, everybody can do it)


>Tesla Model Y is the best selling car in the world.

In what way?


In the sense that it was the best selling vehicle in 2024. 1.09 million units sold.


There will be no 'Volkswagen' tesla, the model Y is going the way of the GT-R, and Tesla's other ideas are vaporware. Lidar is a superior approach. Refusing to use it, while claiming superiority, reminds me of how a child copes with losing at their favorite video game.


It doesn't need to be superior, it just needs to be good enough. It's something that has been proven in many technology battles. FSD has made an amazing progress over the last two years. If they solve last 1% of cases they will be in good position to beat Waymo on price as they scale. With ride sharing price is everything. People just go for cheapest rides. That's why cybercab is two-seater, they are trying to minimize cost per mile. Smaller car means cheaper car and less energy per mile.


I agree on your point about good enough. I don't see how they defeat foggy weather and the like with cameras alone however, so I'm wondering if they will ever get that last 1% as things stand. I think they need more sensors to stand a chance at that.


My model Y has trouble with sunny weather today, so even that isn’t quite solved. Driving east into the morning sun constantly gives warnings that the camera needs to be cleaned.


I don't think people think through to the end enough. Lidar can't be tricked as easily. If Tesla were to attract a group of malicious actors that hated Tesla I wouldn't put it past those actors to figure out ways to confuse Tesla's non-lidar self driving to make it frustrating to Tesla owners but more specifically to cause financial impact on a self driving taxi fleet that wouldn't be possible with Lidar.

Has Tesla accounted for malicious actors trying to sabotage it's vision choice and not just plain jane driving scenarios?

I think at scale and once rolled out malicious actors are going to be one of the number one economic impacts of self driving taxi economics.


I’d argue “Good enough” is different when you’re selling to someone a life critical system.


> doesn't need to be superior, it just needs to be good enough

And not hated. I’m personally pressing for heightened street legality requirements for cameras-only self driving in California, New York, Canada and the EU.


Talk about your wife some more?

The emotional churn when watching russians throw their lives away in belligerent assaults in flattened cities, mined fields and the like, is difficult to convey; righteous fury I've never felt in another context.


My grandfather was in the Pacific theater during WW2, but only the military knows why he had nightmares.
