Many portable batteries (i.e. campsite batteries) have a UPS mode and can be used that way. Much more expensive though.

That’s not the jackpot prize

Don’t fine wines taste better when they’re more expensive? Lol

Aren’t people basically already doing this? There are lots of people who only have their phone and maybe a tablet, and for basically everything that might actually require computing power (i.e. photo editing) they end up using a web app or something.

Nvidia definitely isn’t Enron. It’s all of Nvidia’s customers that are mini-Enrons.

Enron crashed because they were cooking their books and faking income, declaring potential profit where none existed.

That’s not Nvidia. Nvidia is selling actual product as fast as they can make it at whatever price they want to charge.

Nvidia’s customers, on the other hand, are the ones who have to justify buying billions of dollars of product from Nvidia and explaining how they plan to make a profit from that.

Or the Taiwanese one, since all these companies are based in Taiwan

The stock can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent.

I do love the idea of having a 10" tablet that fits into my pocket.

I’m still waiting for the tech to mature more, come down in price, and increase in durability though.

Also, with mandatory AI Gamer Buddy™ so everyone will buy one themselves instead of going over to your friend’s house to play

Shiny holographic sticker = ++$$

You may as well ask me to throw away me phone entirely. I don’t carry a smartphone to make phone calls. I hate phone calls.

95% of that is spam. And an old dumbphone won’t even have auto spam detection.

I use my phone to take pictures, send those pictures, look for restaurants, navigate to those restaurants, listen to music, etc.

So what you’re asking for is to make the part I hate about phones worse, while removing all the functions I actually use my phone for.

Meh, they’re basically living tourist attractions these days with no more political power than a movie star.

Some of the smaller 4k sets work as an XXL computer monitor

But for a living room tv, you seriously need space for a 120"+ set to actually see any benefit of 8k. Most people don’t even have the physical space for that

On one hand, Musk.

On the other hand… Telecos.

You can either give billions more to the world’s richest asshole, or you can give billions to companies that already received that money last time and did absolutely fuckall with it.

Lose-lose

Well someone’s gotta pay for that small country’s worth of wasted electricity

The “rich city” in my area constantly vote against improving public transit. They don’t want “the poors” to be able to get there easily. Never mind that they have a shopping mall that obviously pays minimum wage jobs…

Nah, how about we just keep buying bigger vehicles? As long as my car is bigger than the other guy’s, I’m safe!

I was into it when I was a teenager, then got over it quickly. This was before RGB programmable lighting was even available, you had to buy your own individual LEDs that didn’t change color.

Also this was the era where CGI anime girls and/or robofrogs were plastered on the GPU and cases had giant useless hunks of plastic to make it look like constipated Transformer so… in all honesty it’s probably gotten better.

Half the military and technology assets that won’t ever actually be used to help NATO under Trump.

He’ll veto every action that goes against Russia… Which is what NATO was originally formed to do…

Honestly I don’t think it’s really due to Elon hate. Sure people might not like him there much but it’s not nearly as intense as the left/right divide in the US.

The real reason is that in Europe they aren’t banning Chinese cars outright, so they have to compete against Chinese cars that are amazingly advanced for the price.

Anyways I’m sure Tesla’s plan to drop the $25000 model is working out just fine.
