Yup, this exactly. I don’t think engine failures are particularly common but I have had a few friends quoted roughly what their cars are worth to rebuild the engine from a new block or about 1/3 to replace the engine with a manufacture

Very core parts of modern cars are essentially single use. Older engines could have the cylinders resurfaced or bored and sleeved. Newer engines have coatings and construction methods that disallow this. One scratched cylinder is now the en

None of this has to do with the First Amendment including the legal review you linked to. The Unruh Civil Rights Act that is discussed does not extend the First Amendment as the First Amendment does not restrict the actions of businesses. T

Yup, and instead 68k, PA-RISC, Alpha, PPC, and others all fell to x86. ARM is clearly here to stay and took some of the 68k, PPC, MIPS, and low end/embedded x86 use cases. Since the industry loves the idea of displaced incumbents we’ll
