Its enough to prove the concept.

If it saves 1% of operating costs trucking businesses will be falling over themselves to implement it.

They already are automated trains on freight only routes like mines.

Not much competition in railways. Like literally none.

Why do you think a morbidly obese truck driver would have any luck against blaggers with shotguns ?

A GWM Ora is about the equivalent of US$20K in Australia (no subsidies). So its doable.

You can buy a mid-range loudspeaker for like $5 at an electronics store.

It will need to have a screen to comply with safety standards. A back up camera is mandatory.

The Citroen Ami is a “cycle car” under French law and doesn’t have to meet the same standards.

definition of saying yellow is a true badger

The saying “yellow is a true badger” is not a standard or recognized idiom. The phrase “that’s the badger” (or similar variations) is a British idiom meaning “that’s exactly what I was looking for” or “that’s the right thing”. The term “yellow” is often used to describe someone who is cowardly. Therefore, there’s no established meaning or relationship between “yellow” and “true badger” in the way the phrase “that’s the badger” is used.

still didn’t work.

Its a language model not a dictionary. By putting the term “definition” before the sentence you imply that the following sentence has a definintion, hence it vectors down to the most likely meaning.

Yes, that’s what its always done.

Apparently its based on the field rotations in the motor or something, remember this is a fixed gear vehicle. I don’t think ICE cars use a gear either anymore, its based on the crankshaft sensor for the EFI, multipled by a gear ratio figure in the ECU. Even pushbikes don’t have gear sensors for speedo reading, they count magnetic fluctuations in the rim.

In fact I believe the odometer reading is calculated from the electricty consumption, not from a meter in the gearbox. So if the range reading is inaccurate (and they are) it would throw out the mileage as well.

Should be super easy to prove too… Take an assortment of Teslas to a 1 mile stretch of road, drive it up and down 20 times, measure the mileage before and after.

Not necessarily, the incorrect readings may only occur at certain speeds or conditions.

“You need a pen licence because that’s what you use at work”.

Um no. Secretaries, lawyers and journalists used typewriters and engineers used propelling pencils. Builders had these odd rectangular shaped pencils that could write on anything. Fitters and boilermakers used chalk.

Only schoolchildren used biros.

There are 10 Commandments.

No - there’s 14.

And most of them also have sub-commandments, just to confuse it further.

So presumably NASA is anti-science ?

Because they have redetermined that Pluto is a planet.

Yeah but its such a hassle to find, so…

Edison ivented the light bulb in the US. No, it was Tungsram in Hungary. Edison did employ him as a result though. Bell invented the telephone. No, it was Edison labs. Bell stiole the patent from an Italian guy when he was working in the patent office. Philco invented the TV set. Nothing to do with it, it was Edison-Marconi. The CRT controller was invented in the Soviet Union hence the Philco invention story.

Stomach ulcers are caused by stress. Nope.

Alcoholism runs in families. Nope.

Heart disease runs in families. Nope.

all apps built for one distro can be run on another.

Pfft no. They won’t even work on earlier versions of the same distro. Or later. Or any distro where you’ve installed a library or driver thats older or newer than the one needed for the app your installing.

So in essence there is no difference besides the installation process, gui, and package manager.

There are three different package systems (Red Hat, Debian and Arch) and they are all completely incompatible with each other, and earlier versions of themselves. You can use containers like Snap or Flatpack or half a dozen other standards, which again are all incompatible with each other, and all of them except Snap aren’t fully containerised either - they are dependent on specific libraries and drivers in the distro.

In the near future, probably within 12 months, all the standard features of Windows will be gone. The won’t be any Explorer, there won’t be any Start menu, there won’t be any opening screen.

There will just be a prompt and you say “computer, open yesterdays word file”, like in Star Trek. There won’t be any “apps” to install - you’ll just say “phone, open the order menu for Boise City Chick-Fil-A” and it will navigate automatically to the page.

Sure, if you’re a total weirdo you will be able to install a bash shell and navigate manually, but hardly anyone will do that.

BTW, AI is being introduced into Linux as well.
