The point is she doesn’t know what a banana costs. I doubt these CEOs know what a gallon of gas costs and thus don’t care that people complain about it. The fact that reality is meeting up with the suppose to be exaggerated dollar amount is just depressing.

Every dealer here is slammed…with oil changes. So yeah, it’s just that time of year. It’s crazy to me people pay dealer fees for oil changes. Guess I’m too cheap for that.

They did away with rear hydraulics…for awhile. After testing incidents they added back in a one time use hydraulic emergency system for the rear.

Kind of but if the electricity goes out it doesn’t matter how many circuits you have. They all don’t work. You could say the same about the brake fluid but I can’t flip a switch in the cab to drain the brake fluid but I can leave a light on to drain the battery. That’s why I’m curious what the fail safes are. They could have multiple power sources. We don’t know…

I was simply responding to your comment that there weren’t any fail safes to losing a brake line and there are. Losing a single line or two lines in the same circuit doesn’t cause a catastrophic failure and you can stop the vehicle albeit with reduced braking performance.

My car has a valve where you might lose some wheels but not all with a line failure. It’s better than nothing. The parking/emergency brake is a manual cable. Don’t know how that is implemented in this new system either.

Most vehicles have some form of dual braking system as a fail safe. Random internet image…

I don’t have an issue with a new system per se. This gives me pause though.

The announcement was light on details about both the system itself and how its fail-safes are implemented

The system they propose is a brake by wire system that uses electric motors. What happens when you have no power? On an EV this might be moot. What happens after an accident and this system is damaged? I’ve seen plenty of cars start to roll after an accident until the driver applies the brakes. Tesla and their door handles not working is an example of critical systems not working after accidents. I’m mostly curious about what failsafes are in place in this new system. Seems premature for name calling without all the information.

For this system to catch on it needs to either be better than the current systems by a large enough margin, cheaper, or more reliable(aka less warranty claims).

My understanding was GitHub was primarily hosted on AWS when Microsoft acquired it. I’m assuming a lot of that instability has been caused by moving it over to Azure in bits and pieces.

I love dark humor and sarcasm so Daria was my jam…

I use to watch this before school.

Rather than a dedicated release (or update) for Windows 11, project K2 is Microsoft’s effort to maintain high quality across current and future versions of the OS, prioritizing consistency, and ultimately win back the trust of users.

This reads as a big nothing. So they’re going to focus on making quality software now? Can I ask where that ranked on their priority list prior and where does it rank with ‘project K2’? Something tells me it’s somewhere in the double digits still. But it’s an ‘effort’ now!
