Stargate has some of the strongest franchise potential out there, and a well developed universe that is wide open. Few properties have that.
There are whole new generations that have never seen the original, nor care to, but would respond to a modern series.
Canning it because of fears it would only attract old viewers is idiotic.
However, a human salesperson probably will convince your human boss to replace all of you with a chatbot that cannot do your job.
The DOT, NTSB, or any one of a number of agencies CAN, however.
Give them 10 minutes, and they could come up with any number of claims that vehicles running non-certified software on public roads is a public safety issue.
If pressed by anyone, several Federal agencies could come up with justifications as why they have jurisdiction to get injunctions against or even seize these 'illegal' vehicles.
In the United States, simply keeping their cars running after the manufacturer died is a fairly substantial set of crimes.
Since they have admitted to conspiracy by forming an interstate group to do it, major Federal organized crime laws have been broken.
Land of the free and all that.
Neat trick. Now what are you going to get rid of all that heat that generates?
You know. IN A VACUUM.
Yes, I know there are IR radiators. With a dissipation of around 200w per square meter
Now do the math for 100GW
Gee, what would lead anyone think they were capable of doing such a thing?
I understand that we have had some very serious fires in buildings that use wood, too.
Can you explain to us why we don't stop completely using wood as well?
By your logic, any use of wood for anything after the 1666 Great Fire of London was pure idiocy
Concrete and steel should have been banned after the 9/11 building collapses, as those proved unsafe to you as well I suppose?
Bamboo engineered materials are superior to almost anything else we currently use for certain applications.
I spec laminated bamboo structural panels for designs requiring better strength, dimensional stability and vibrational attenuation than current engineered wood products
It even exceeds some traditional metal structural elements in certain applications.
It also costs about 3x as much as other wood for the panels I use, so no one uses it for cost savings. But it does justify that cost with a lot of extra value.
Bamboo does happen to also grow in China, like it does in much of the world, but that does not justify your blind bigotry and racism against a building material.
Seriously? Racism, against plants that happen to grow near by people you don't like? You must be very intelligent.
I am disappoint
Large industrial machines have an EOL measured in decades. You do not replace a lathe the size of a bus or a container ship because a Windows version changed
I have to maintain a variety of air-gapped boxes that run win 7, and two even still on XP.
After that date, manufacturers got smart and most everyone shipped Linux based control systems, but it took them a while, and still to this day not everyone has.
They are going to have to have some way to allow new installations of legacy versions.
Now try fixing it for the thousands of people who are not famous Apple Developers with C-level execs on speed dial
Apple Gift Card fraud is a well known issue. Even the official response from Apple implied the entire supply chain was compromised.
There are no surprises here, this is not an uncommon occurrence, and this instance of it is well documented.
There is nothing here that "doesn't add up" other than your personal discomfort at anyone questioning the sacred Apple. Apple is Mother. Apple is father.
What sin has not been committed in the name of efficiency?
