Waymo is about to be cooked by Tesla due to the massive differences in cost to provide the service, and Waymo does not have a path to reduce their costs enough to be competitive. Tesla has 13 billion miles of fsd, and is adding another billion/month. The only hope that Waymo had was that Tesla FSD driving would fail, but that does not appear to be the case (recent events make it apparent that Waymo isn't improving very fast, if at all.) FSD isn't' perfect, but it's better than most humans and improving. Waymo has a year or so before Google throws in the towel, like they have done for so many other projects.

Tesla is worth the $99/month, but GM supercruise isn't worth anywhere close to $40/month. It's unreliable, intermittant, and at times dangerous. GM has gone down the wrong path with it, and until they get something better, i would pass.

The luddites will blame it on datacenters.

No wonder they got hacked, if they think they can get confirmation that it was deleted. It's not a serious company.

Every construction project uses water for concrete...

It's going to be really hard to compete with Starlink... they have 10k+ satellites and are constantly launching more. Amazon/Blue Origin can't compete with the launch costs of SpaceX, even if they use SpaceX. they have zero hope of competing on numbers, and their technology isn't really going to give them an advantage. The marginal cost per user for Starlink is likely close to zero (infrastructure is in place worldwide, each county is close to free, aside from adding some base stations.) Profit is going to explode, but they could also lower prices enough that they are still profitable, but competitors will never be able to make any money. Give it a couple of years Amazon will cut their losses.

It's still windows, so how good could it really be?

living up to the name. It was an app that should not have been updated.

It doesn't matter. She's 15. She can't consent.

Lethal force is legal in Texas for this sort of event...

Tech is expanding, just not with the same number of workers. AI is going to replace a lot more jobs in 2026. If you are in tech, you are on your own. Get a claude code, Gemini, OpenAI, or Grok account and do your own thing.

No thanks... I already switched away from Google Chrome due to all the ads and spying.

How exactly are you supposed to "use the Netflix app" if you are at a hotel or another place that doesn't have it? If you make it too hard to use the legal content, people have other options. If you BitTorrent the content you don't have to deal with this bullshit.

this has zero to do with tariffs.

It's not tariffs, it's AI datacenters. OpenAi basically bought up 40% of the wafers from at least 2 companies (possibly all of them). Google, Anthropic, and Grok are also going to need huge amounts. their pockets are much deeper than ours...
