Not even in a Toyota will collision control override the driver’s accelerator pedal.

Why does your cruise control not brake if you depress the accelerator? In this case you conveniently forget it is “FSD (supervised)”. A driver’s command overrides all else. If it wasn’t convenient for your argument you wouldn’t have it any other way.

Oops, you have never driven anything under the conditions you describe. All accept input from the driver to override. If collision avoidance brakes and driver depresses accelerator, the driver’s command overrides. The Tesla on FSD was driven into the house with driver’s foot depressing the...

I seriously doubt this site is hosted on a PC in someone’s garage, most likely in a virtual machine image that can be moved between CPUs professionally hosted. Multiple images run simultaneously to handle load. A data center, most likely multiple data centers around the world. As for AI, lots...

You never know what is inside the data center. If AI is more profitable and they have customers then other hardware gets moved out. Fact is the “other hardware” is necessary to access the AI.

You posted your message on a data center. Don’t see much good coming from them?

But that is the way our economy works these days. Nobody builds so much as a Walmart or subdivision without government incentives and giveaways. We are solidly in a State Capitalism Economy.

You are ignoring the value of services that can be sold on each type of cpu. If one can get $10 for an hour of h200 time then 400W is 0.4kWh or 4¢ at 10¢/kWh. Spend less than 4¢ more to cool.

This site is undoubtedly hosted at a data center. You don’t think it is any better or useful than a dialup BBS of 30 years ago?

Yes, a prescription is required for a handicapped parking pass. But the question is whether the person using the privilege is the one who qualified for the pass? I think this is widely abused. If you can push a cart though the grocery store you don’t need a close parking space.

The heat doesn’t originate in the range so much as the heat is sitting on top in your pan. There is heat generated in the electrical switchgear driving the inductors.

Yes, one has 6 followers the other about 200.

Some say EVs are heavy but fail to note EVs wear appropriately sized tires for their load. When shopping for EV tires one should pay attention to low rolling resistance. Can make a huge difference in range.

Oh, you doubt there is a difference. So they must be the same. Right! Brands never lie about CCA. “Pretty sure.” Not at all. Battery manufacturers easily put different components in the same package. Next you’ll tell me a Yokohama tire made exclusively for Discount Tire is exactly the same...

You exactly misunderstood my post. I said Clarios batteries made in the same factory are only as good as the brand name wishes to pay for. You know nothing of plate spacing or alloy. Battery manufacturers will build junk for your brand if that is all you are willing to pay for. Is your brand...
