According to the link, the local service trains will see the biggest improvements from electrification (100 minutes -> 75 minutes). This makes sense because my understanding is the the electrified system is quite a bit faster in accelera

2 bay Synology NAS' are less than $200, 4 bay are less than $400. Yes, if you need 144TB of storage the NAS unit is going to be more expensive, but the drives themselves are the majority of the cost.

Desktop computers are becoming increasingly uncommon. I'm a pretty technologically inclined person and I havent owned a desktop in years. For most people, laptops have been more than capable enough for their needs for a long time. And

If you compare a random older Windows laptop to a new or nearly new Mac, sure. But new Windows/x86 PCs have gotten pretty efficient. Here's a review showing a Meteor Lake laptop getting 15 hours of video playback on battery: http

If every past, present, and future legal scenario was explicitly and unambiguously addressed by the constitution, we wouldnt need the Supreme Court. In reality it is an imperfect document that can never possibly be complete.

If they went with a more modest goal of 250kph (155mph) maximum speed (Class I HSR), it almost certainly would have been easier and cheaper to build. The problem with that is that the Bay Area -> LA times would have been 4+ hours which w

Eh, seems like legit marketing to me. Yes, they are trying to sell you something, but they are doing that by releasing non-trivial research and open source code.

Tesla passed 1M sales of Model 3 alone in 2021, and cumulative sales of 3/Y are now well into the multi-millions. Unless Hertz drivers are orders of magnitude more crashprone than new Tesla operators in general, I dont think Hertz'

An internal AP in a gateway device isnt "directly connected to WAN" any more than an external AP. In both cases it is behind a firewall (and NAT, if applicable).

Probably a negotiating tactic. ARM is starting out by asking for something extreme (halting Elite X sales and destroying Nuvia's IP), when what they really want is for Qualcomm to renegotiate a new license for the IP with more money go

According to comments from Intel, the additional hardware that has to be added for SMT on a P core isnt much smaller than an entire E core. So, they decided it is better to just rely on the E cores for additional multithreaded performance.

Compared to the previous generation, scheduling should be easier. Meteor Lake has P Cores with SMT, E Cores, and Low Power E Cores. Lunar Lake just has P Cores (no SMT) and E Cores.

Xeon 6E launched this week on the Intel 3 process. Benchmarks of production silicon look good for performance but especially good for performance per watt. Definitely competitive with AMD.

There are only two high performance consoles on the market, and AMD happens to make both the chips. I guess you could say they are the "market leader", but that is in part because there are so few consoles out there. Nvidia or Int

Buy something else? Meteor Lake supports up to 96GB, and I assume AMD has something that supports 64GB+ as well. Lunar Lake is specifically targeted towards power efficient laptops, there are no desktop chips, or desktop-class mobile chips.

162MHz is VHF, shortwave is much lower frequency (and longer wave). More or less all US car owners already own a VHF radio. Extending it from 88-108MHz up to 162MHz would be fairly trivial.
