Just got an rtl8127 pci e card to replace my aqc113. Runs cool, doesn't have as much contention on the chipset. Price was right. Good purchase and that $10 chip will allow cheaper more power efficient home 10gb equipment within the coming years.

Waymo put a ton of sensors, including lidar and cameras, to create a truly driverless experience. Tesla put a ton of cameras to make a mostly driverless experience (but when you need a driver you NEED a driver). Comma strapped a cellphone cam to the windshield to make a semi driverless experience on straightish roads, and a driver must take over when anything complex happens.

Flock Safety is a lot more than ALPR. They just try to fit in as an ALPR because those have been used for years. They do use their video feed to find unique identifiers of vehicles, such as dents, mods, color, make, model, etc. It's also highly likely they are doing facial recognition at some locations. I do not believe they are doing gait recognition yet for pedestrians, but it's just a matter of time.

I do think that within the next 5-10 years most cars will be able to hands free highway as reliably as OP. However, cars keep getting more and more expensive. One can buy a 2015-2024 used car for much cheaper and get some very good highway cruising out of it. That's what I did and am very happy about it.

Some cars that have BSD it will work with. My car uses it, but don't forget the lane changes are not automated by default. A user must turn on the blinker and nudge the wheel by default. Positive BSD sensors read on CAN-BUS will be read by OP and it will not perform the rest of the lane change. This is how it works on my car (albeit, I don't run default so I just need the blinker).

This is a modern ADAS system, but a lot more stable. The driver is always liable for what their vehicle does. It's not claiming to be FSD and it's very apparent when the system will need additional inputs from the driver.

I have 15k miles on it. Was able to retrofit a friend's 2015 car as well with a bit of additional hardware, and he likes it. He also has FSD on a model3. But OP or FSD, driver always has to pay attention and add their inputs.

Not everyone pays that close of attention. There was a lot of confusion about Musk's doge tweets which Shiba used as marketing. Shiba also boosted their market cap by minting all their tokens at once and giving half to Buterin's cold wallet, this making it jump on the leader board with a smaller amount of initial investment. Then they claim deflationary status by having community burns in the millions (which is extremely low volume relative to the volume in existence). Plus being a eth l2, defi works out of the box so people looking to do something with their compatible existing tokens/wEth we're able to 'diversify' into it.

Funny that you use that example. That's a classic example of something that's achievable in a trustless manner. If the address has no outbound activity for x time, transfer assets to beneficiary. Something like who wins the sportsball event would have to rely on a 3rd party oracle, of which there are many, but for the right price any of them can be tampered with.

As of a couple months ago, the T-Mobile coverage maps have been very accurate for both 4G and low/mid band 5G in my areas, and from what I've seen from others on the subreddit.

I thought this was the car from Moonwalker. Was expecting it to turn into robot Michael Jackson. There's no way this wasn't modeled after that?
