It’s optional for an ESTA, you can just skip right over it. It sounds like they want to make it compulsory

Yeah pulling nearly 600w through a connector designed for 600w maximum just seems like a terrible idea. Where’s the margin for error?

Elite - BBC Micro Model B originally.

If you want a really simple way to run a variety of local models with a nice UI take a look at https://jan.ai/

Probably more likely to be related to the Sora release or any of the other stuff they’ve announced this week.

Yeah which ports are folks actually missing here? Looking at various ports.

Magsafe: This has returned on the new machines. I like it for the green / orange charge indicator. RJ-45: Ok I kinda of get it, but it’s such a tall port. Personally I’d prefer a thinner laptop in this instance. Mini DVI: long dead. Replaced with HDMI. The MacBook pro’s have HDMI FireWire: long dead USB A: Replaced with USB-C. Ok one A port here would still be useful. Headphone / Mic: Still there, just as a combo port on the other side. SD card reader: The MacBook Pros have this. Mini Display port: Long dead. Replaced with DP over USB C

In short if you want HDMI and SD card reader and are anti dongle you get a MBP which has both.

Either way now have ports that can push insane bandwidth and route USB, PCI, HDMI and DP over the same cable which is incredibly versatile.

Yup. Investors have convinced themselves that this time AI development is going to grow exponentially. The breathless fantasies they’ve concocted for themselves require it. They’re going to be disappointed.

I doubt they’ll ever come to Europe. They don’t meet even the most basic crash safety standards. These things are designed to annihilate pedestrians, not to try to reduce harm.

It needs to be way way better than ‘better than average’ if it’s ever going to be accepted by regulators and the public. Without better sensors I don’t believe it will ever make it. Waymo had the right idea here if you ask me.

If anyone was somehow still thinking RoboTaxi is ever going to be a thing. Then no, it’s not, because of reasons like this.

For now, Discord users in Türkiye face limited access to the platform, though it remains unclear whether a full ban will be implemented in the coming days.

Still working for me on hotel wifi.

Edit: it won’t launch on my laptop now. Stuck trying to update. Still works on my phone.

They’ve committed to support AM5 (the LGA socket launched 2022) through at least 2027.
