It says that in the article, yes


I guess I missed the last paragraph,

> The importance of the chipset can't be understated. As proof, to this very day, VMware virtualization software always uses the Intel 440BX as the default chipset, even with Windows 11 as both the host and guest.

It raises the obvious question of whether that will need to change, or already has.


My Tesla drove me to the supermarket today. I pushed a button and it took me there and parked in a good spot. It drove me to another state this summer. It works and works very well. Not sure if you’re up to date here because the full self driving is incredible. Nobody is even close to touching Tesla here, they’re 5 years ahead of any other car maker in this respect.


If by that you mean in terms of fatalities, then you would be accurate. Tesla advanced-driving systems have more recorded fatalities than the entire rest of the automotive industry worldwide combined.

It does not matter how you dice up the statistics (i.e., miles driven, risk levels of the drivers, by year, by location, etc). Tesla AP and FSD are the most dangerous driving systems on the road.


Tesla AP is a basic ADAS system like Toyota Safety Sense. So using FSD and AP in the same sentence basically reads like Microsoft Windows 3.1 and Microsoft Windows 11.

Waymo is better


Waymo is different. Waymo evolved over a period of 15 years into a mature and deployable robotaxi service. Waymo has a hardware strategy, enormous data infrastructure, real time data from 2 billion Maps and Navigation users, a support infrastructure that makes opex sense, which makes an ambitious expansion program possible. In other words it's got what it takes to be a real product and it is a real product. Possibly uniquely since the three Chinese Robo taxi services operates smaller fleets. Probably due to support requirements and a large number of interventions.


Mac pros


Why on earth would you buy an Intel Mac Pro instead of a much faster, cheaper, PC?


If you can buy one used for a steal, an Intel Mac Pro would make a sweet homelab server.


Even used Mac pros go for many multiples of their actual worth.


You mean "multiples of what I believe their actual worth is."


I mean many multiples of what it would cost to build an Intel desktop machine with identical specs.


Why not MongoDB?


The question should be the other way around: why mongodb? It’s not ACID compliant so has major down sides…


According to mongodb it is acid compliant.

I guess they didn’t need anything web scale.


Because it's web scale...


Mimestream is the best one hands down!


This is great!


What windows laptop is that?



> but we need to remember enough that when we encounter you again, we recognize that you've objected to further processing. How are we supposed to know in future interactions that you've opted out if we've deleted all mentions of you and your PII?

Just hash the PII, delete the original and reinsert the hashed version (perhaps into another table). On insert check if hashes match and the opt out bit is set, if they match and it’s set then act appropriately.


You used the word "just" there, but I don't think storing hashed PII is necessarily an out here. Clearly, the whole point of the suggestion is that we can still match the person against a record, and the hashed device id or ip or email or whatever else is functioning as an identifier.


Or the manufacturers will just not sell their phones in France. Ultimately it’s the French citizens that will miss out.


My guess is that France will soon have followers in form of other EU states.

Both left and right are contesting who can be more authoritarian these days.


The only left wing governments in the western world are Portugal and Spain. And PSOE is barely left-wing imho (I won't fall into the 'no true scottman' here, but I really wanted to).


Manufacturers already throw their principles out of the window to sell in China, Russia and UAE so I don't think they'll have a problem selling in France after this either.


What would stop manufacturers from selling their products in France with whatever customizations are required by law?
