While I think the car is ridiculous too, that's a cruel thing to say.

I don't get this advocacy either, makes me wonder why? Constructing a nuclear power plant usually takes decades, they are not a solution for the more immediate problem climate change. They also introduce lots of new problems, and it's not sustainable either.

It isn't that surprising.. they are shipping AI chips, but there is almost no software that makes use of them yet. Unless people require them for a certain use case, why bother?

Reminds me a bit of "5G ready" phone contracts, just meaningless marketing. Don't need to chase every hype.

That is a depressing viewpoint. Money doesn't make happy, it just provides financial security. There are so many more important things to life.

You are deluding yourself if you think Bitcoin can only climb in value. At the end of the day there is very little you can buy with it unless you trade it in for a real currency. And for you to make a profit, someone else had to lose money. It's a zero sum game. Eventually there will be no more fools to invest in it.

The biggest mistake was to make it a "hub" for all sorts of other uses in my opinion. It shouldn't be browser based, it should be native and just focus on chatting and calls, that's it. It could be so much faster and intuitive.

The interesting part is, if they say the game is complete or at least in "1.0" shape, it will suddenly mean that people will judge it as a product and not just a vision. CIG won't call it finished as long as they possibly can.

Why have I not heard of RLCD before :/ I recently bought an Onyx Boox 13" reader, and while I like it a lot, it's still just black and white, but also has some ghosting.

It certainly made me question whether my next car will be another Tesla, likely it won't. They definitely deserve credit for making EVs more marketable and practical, but that technological advantage they had over the competition is gone. So at the end of the day it's just another EV brand but with a tarnished reputation.
