You have created an ignorant wordsalad of requirements without understanding why they fit together.

You want no backlight bleed? Well for that you can increase the contrast ratio (which you claim doesn't worry you). If you eliminate backlight bleed and have a high contrast ratio you will get banding, so for that you want 10bit colour processing. And funny enough some of the screens with the better contrast ratios, colours, and backlight darkness which don't have burning (aren't OLED) have ...... viewing angle issues (specifically around the blacks / backlights, not the colours of the light).

It's all linked.

Except for stuck / dead pixels. That's not linked to anything other than the past. Seriously it's been 15 years since I've heard of that being anything other than a manufacturing defect covered under warranty.

We don't develop technology based on the practices of most of us. We develop technology for the best of us, and let it trickle down to consumers later. Just because you watch a compressed stream doesn't mean videophiles / cinephiles, don't exist.

Gaming isn't a good example of people who make good use of technology such as this. We have HDR displays with defined gamuts and yet a pathetic few games actually implement it correctly. Conversely unless you actually have a proper HDR monitor any deviation from the sRGB gamut will result in wrong / hyper saturated colours for games due to a lack of colour management, this goes for anyone who games on a video editing monitor following the DCI-P3 gamut, or photo editing monitor following (typically) AdobeRGB. Wide gamut monitors cause games to look wrong.

Sorry that was probably a Australianism to call it a "roadworthy".

On I know how it was interpreted. Those are the owners you'll find on Fox News / Daily Mail. It's a tiny subset of EV owners.

Don't generalise. There are plenty of scenarios requiring safety certified software lawyers that don't require the precision of an RTOS. We're not talking about deploying airbags here. Many applications in a car already are too complex (e.g. machine vision) to be baked into firmware on an RTOS. Yeah this won't replace your ECU, or your airbag system, but there there is far more to a modern car.

Hydrogen isn't stored at low temperatures. Hydrogen is dispensed at low temperatures. There's typically a standard storage bullet > compressor > small high pressure storage (enough to fill only a couple of cars per hour, sometimes no storage at all), and ... a chiller. The hydrogen is specifically cooled prior to being pumped to the car as pumping hot hydrogen is painfully slow, will prevent your tank from being filled to rated capacity, and can potentially cause a pressure spike if mixed with cold storage in a tank.

Quite the opposite. Hydrogen storage at stations is at a low pressure. The feed the hydrogen through a compressor directly on the way to your car. The issue here isn't cold, the issue is heat from the compression stage. The hydrogen then goes through an additional chilling phase cooling it down below zero before being dispensed into the car. The nozzles and hoses are insulated.

If the cold isn't maintained there's a few issues:
a) the filling process is slow. I mean REALLY slow. 20+minutes to fill a car.
b) you can't get the tank full. Hydrogen volume for a given pressure is governed by temperature.
c) you do run a potential risk in the worst case scenario: feed of high temperature into a nearly full low temperature tank can cause a pressure spike beyond safe operating point (which for a consumer car being 700bar should scare you a little).

What I like about their FUD is that in some cases hydrogen is actually just as bad. One of Toyota's talking points is how it takes more than 10 minutes to charge an EV. Yeah well Toyota loves telling people that you can get 300km of range out of a Mirai in just 5 minutes. They don't tell you that to do so you need to use a chilled high-rate dispenser (not all are), and they don't tell you 300km means the tank is actually less than half full.

Hydrogen isn't expensive. Heck we produce a shittonne of it just to get gasoline and diesel into your car, and some refining processes actually produce net hydrogen as by-product, in many cases well beyond current demand to a point where you're borderline giving it away.

No the issue for hydrogen vehicles is far more ... dangerous. People don't understand hydrogen isn't gasoline. People don't understand gasoline pool fire burns down a petrol station, while a hydrogen bullet BLEVE levels 4 city blocks. People don't understand that gasoline is actually hard to ignite (throwing your cigarette at it only really works int he movies), while hydrogen is just standing there saying "common m*****uker move your jumper causing some static build up, I ****ing dare you!"

That's one of the reasons hydrogen infrastructure is going backwards. The companies have done their risk modelling and realised what a completely horrible idea it was. I've seen modelling from one oil major saying you can't build these fuel stations within 300m of any building. Then you see on the Toyota Mirai Europe website a lovely picture of a Shell / Vattenfall branded electrolysers / fuel station right in the harbour district of Hamburg. Except look at it on street maps, and it's obvious Shell actually realised what a horrible idea it was and backed out of the project *after* construction. That should give you moments of pause.

I generalise this far more. See I'm immediately suspicious of people who turn the concept of someone using a distro into some culture war labelling others. Somehow the people who judge others based on a distro they use are all the same gatekeeping arseholes, typically with some anti-systemd thrown in for extra toxicity.

You're like a vegan. How do you know someone hates systemd? They'll tell you, loudly, publicly, angrily, rant about it, then announce to the world that they judged you for daring to not give a shit.

Yes let's equate violating privacy with contributing to a regime very likely committing war crimes. Tooooootaaaly the same thing worthy of the same response. Fuck you for gaslighting the protestors.

At work yes. Work is not a democracy. It is not there to look out for you. It's not your family, your company is not your friend. You are paid in exchange of services under a contract. Nothing more, nothing less. The contractual terms allow parties to part way often for all manner of simple reasons. If your employer permits atrocities your choice is to ignore it, leave the employer, or argue with them and be shown the door.

That's all there is to it. No more, no less. If you bring your politics and free speech and pointless rights to a place defined entirely by a work contract and limited contract law you should expect to lose any fight you start.

There's a place for politics. Work isn't it. You're not paid for politics, you're not paid for your opinion. You want to have an open discussion in a public arena, go your hardest. You want to bring politics in a place in breach of your contract, well not liking the contract was your idea, and I'm with you, lets tear it up and don't forget to take your stuff with you on the way out the door.

No they clearly do. You can see that from the sales of the Quest (which since you compared it to something like Nintendo, is actually more popular than the well regarded Gamecube). What people don't want to do is pay $3500 to wear obnoxious heavy goggles on their head. Devices which lose the trailing zero sell extremely well.

Actually that's not true. In many countries we actively try and regulate away the addictive component or regulate to counteract the addiction (when it's chemical). E.g. You're free to buy cigarettes as an adult. But manufacturers are not free to show them to you. Here they are literally allowed to not be on display, because seeing something strengthens your addiction (as does marketing, something which is banned for cigarettes and gambling in many countries).

Additionally gambling companies here need to provide a cooling off period too.

You're out of touch. It's all about AAAA games now.

I wish I was joking. https://www.ccn.com/aaaa-game-... Mind you at this point it looks mostly like the number of As in the game is an indication of how big of a turd it will be. So far there's been one self proclaimed AAAA game on the market and it is ... no I'm not going to call it a shitshow. A quick look on some questionable porn sites show that even some people out there get pleasure from playing with shit, whereas Skull and Bones has appealed to precisely no one.
