Technical subjects usually have quite clear and correct wikipedia pages. As soon as politics enter it wikipedia is not reliable.

Add an RGB LED, add wireless power, sell em for 10K per buck and stick em on the wall as a screen.
Valve can have significant impact on that. It would just also significantly impact themselves.
Steam knows or can know what GPU you run it on, along with drivers etc. It could simply fall back to VGA without hardware acceleration for yet-to-be-released Nvidia GPUs.
That would significantly affect the Nvidia bottom line in the future. It would also place Valve in a bad spot.
Of course you can. You just need a $10M wirebonder to connect the IO to the computer.
Especially since at 10 bar the boiling point of water is 179C.
Higher frequencies are easier to form into directed beams dynamically with phased arrays. Not that I have any indication that Nokia has done this.
Absorption by water molecules really picks up above about 6 GHz. This limits the practical range for high frequency signals.
Just don't take the tapes to long term storage with an elevator with motors that erase all tapes before they get to storage.
High RPM drives are quite quickly being replaced by SSDs.
I downloaded a few keyboards and settled on Minuum. Default Samsung sucks, Swiftkey was way way better at typing but still took to much space. More than 50% of my screen in landscape mode. Minuum gives me the screen space to actually see what I am typing. It could do with better prediction though.
Traffic data is included in modern navigation systems. Last modern car I was in just asked me something in the lines of "Traffic congestion ahead. Reroute?".
Why do you think that I prefer to be driven than to drive myself?
I am not the one you replied to but I don't believe you will want to be driven. I just want the idiots who can't be arsed to drive with their eyes on the road instead of on their phones to be driven. I also assume you don't fall in that category because those people don't seem to enjoy driving. They probably just want to get from A to B. Exactly what a self driving car would provide.
If I had a car I would also want it to be self-driving because I find driving to be boring. I do, however, realize it is a 1 ton weapon with significant kinetic energy.

Batteries did get a whole lot better in the past decade. It's just that we do so much more with them that the drain on them more then matches the capacity gain we got. Don't blame the battery manufacturer, blame the public who wants 7" screens and oct core 4 Ghz processors on their phones.
After a Google image search for uSD pendants I'd advice a locket pendant with some foam to prevent the card from thrashing around. Those uSD things are usually ugly as hell.
By the way, stay away from the medical data lockets for this purpose. They look quite stylish and they are intent for safe data storage but any data storage device found in those will be read in an emergency because that is what the intention of that type of locket is.
