The Sony Walkman has such an iconic look. Disappointed that the best look they could come up with for this showpiece was "Pixel in a formal corset"

This from the company that cuts corners (e.g. no LIDAR, beta release self-driving) and then works out afterward how to stop breaking. Or maybe start braking around walls and pedestrians :D Quarter million dollar and invite-only no-price named versions? These are mostly going to be rich people toys. And I'm not saying they'll be less safe than say a tourism submarine driven with a game controller. I'm just looking at the company and owner track records and thinking if this ever gets out of the concept car stage Tesla's going to be in the news again.

I'm interested to see the "Bluetooth pairing is more reliable" improvements. Couple of years ago I was on a team trying to get a Bluetooth data logging device working. We found the datalogger worked perfectly with anything not running Windows 11; digging into the nitty-gritty there were issues with pairing, dropping paired devices, and general Bluetooth interaction in Win11. I've slept since then (but only a couple of times) so I don't recall all the issues we found, but the best solution we found in the time allocated was to use a Renesas dev board as a Bluetooth-to-USB bridge to Win11 machines. I've noticed it with my not-Airpod headphones too; same ones pair and work fine on all my home equipment (non-Win11) but have poor reliability with the Win11 machines I have to use at work.

Joy! Another chance to pay Amazon $75 to sell me more stuff!

There this administration goes again, renaming things "Autonomous Warfare Command" - everyone is just going to roll their eyes and keep calling it Skynet.

In this case, there will be a log of when the SMS / pic was received, so any duration of retention would be tacit acceptance. If you didn't want it, you delete it.
