But the phrasing should be about losing money, not "losing" cars.

"malfunctioning phone-as-a-key functionality, a useless keyfob, a keycard that rarely worked quickly, constant phone connection issues, infotainment glitches and error messages"

is not needing the same functionality that the following provides:

"a Nvidia Drive AGX Orin-based core computer that has contains over 500 TOPS (Trillion Operations Per Second) of power, which Volvo says will help power its autonomous driving ambitions"

This is for lane assist, speed limit assist, auto-braking, follow mode, and other modern cruise control systems that many don't use.

This really should not be same computer (but I presume there is a VM here with static allocation) as the keyfobs, bluetooth, and especially the infotainment system.

I suspect the wireless module in the old computer board was crap (or otherwise poor motherboard design) and the new board fixes that, but also comes with the above features as a bonus.

Abandoned hotel rooms? How is anything abandoned in NYC in 2025?

Just bc rent is high in NYC does not mean they have no buildings being kept empty.
There must be, since the news indicates the seized network was scattered across 5 sites. In short; they were hidden within rooms in 5 different abandoned buildings - not just one.

If not, why and under what authority was it dismantled?

Police can seize equipment in order to investigate possible crime, so long as they have probable cause to suspect the gear might be evidence, then they can take it in.

Also, the location being Abandoned hotel rooms, and the unauthorized nature of the presence of many racks' worth of gear being installed there by the owners of the property is probably plenty probable cause.

Was the installation used to commit a crime?
It sounds like they are still investigating. The article does not mention any crime as being alleged, Only that the network they seized in theory would be capable of causing disruption if the operators had wanted it too.

Even if AI saves a lot of labor the people developing the AI have to find a way to monetize it.

For example a mechanical engineer making $150 K / year it's not uncommon to pay maybe $7500 for CATIA.

For a stock trader it's about $30K / year for a Bloomberg terminal.

Or maybe it will be like operating an MRI scanner which is $5 million to buy, and the MRI technologist who operates it makes $88K / year.

Or a mining dumptruck that costs $7M and the driver is paid $80K.

Nobody knows where this ratio will end up for any number of jobs to be impacted by AI.

That TLAs cannot actually break the TOR system itself?

Probably not true. Presumably the third-letter-agencies can break TOR, but I would guess the criminal spies they're trying to recruit from the Russian government or whatever to betray and sell their own countries' secrets aren't just hopping on Tor from a device identifiable to them without additional safeguards.

It's likely for example that possibly the US or UK can track down Tor users much more quickly, and the Russians can't get physical access to the nodes to subvert the crypto as easily.

I dont know, I would like to have a an HTML page back as an option

Microsoft just needs to add option of "pinning a Window to the background". To make the Window become fullscreen with no title bar, and prevent focus or interaction with the Window while it is pinned -- with your Desktop Icons and UI simply stacked on top of the Window, so your background could be any Window.

if you want HTML, then you could pin a shortcut to open a dedicated chromeless full-screen browser app.

This would be better than having a Video file or a HTML file as background - the background can be any application.

I recently read that the sales price is $105M but the lifetime maintenance cost is budgeted at $300M.

I don't know it's anything with the plane, the F35-C first launched from the land-based testing version of the electric catapult back in 2011:

and has been taking off from carriers with steam catapults for over a decade

yeah, that's why SCOTUS was not given Judicial Review powers in the Constitution and just declared fifteen years later that it had that ultimate power "because we have to".

The Legislature is supposed to manage this nonsense. It has been in a coma since 1995.

My guess is this was done right after ChatGPT hit and it just didn't occur to them that it might make up citations.

Why? I doubt the lawyer took this risk intentionally or will be doing it again. It sends the message clearly, you are responsible for your legal filings, regardless of the tools you might use.

That's what you think.. but AI makes coding so easy in management's eye that they can create temporary seasonal coding positions for the winter each year - bring on a bunch of Desk Clerks. Add AI usage and basic coding to the job skills equirements, and stick them in the coding positions.

I live in Trinidad, CO, just north of the New Mexico state line. Several years ago there was a major brush fire up near Colorado Springs, about 124 miles away. The wind was from the north and strong enough that the smoke from that fire came past us and kept going south over Raton Pass into New Mexico. The particulates from the smoke were bad enough that it was impossible to take a deep, full breath without coughing. You don't need to be near a fire to be affected by it, just down wind, and how far away depends on how strong that wind is.

H1-B, you're only going to need a reasonably low number of people in the team to setup a remote office for the entire team

This is why we should make sure Offshore work performed for a US company by contract employees has to be legally classed as US source income - offshored services, and establish a tariff rate per hour on that higher than the H1B visa costs.
