Re: Smart Telescope
My telescope made a right hash of that, it struggled to track the sun - I presume the AI hasn’t had much training on solar eclipses. Then it kept losing focus and messing up the exposure.

Re: Elon Musk/Tesla
The newer ones have matrix lights so they're on high beams all the time at night and above 25 ish mph. The camera still can't do a basic function such as detecting rain properly to activate the wipers so it's probably not doing a good job of dimming the correct zones to avoid blocking oncoming cars...

They're missing an opportunity to fit a hole lined with a poo bag in the overhang section.

Re: Elon Musk/Tesla
There's also an investigation on the front suspension on 1.2 million Teslas - the front lower balljoint has a sudden failure where it completely detaches causing a loss of control. Quite scary.

Re: Elon Musk/Tesla
Doesn’t the space refuelling plan have to work for NASA to have any chance of sending people to the moon again?
I can’t tell at this point who the bigger cork in the bottle is between SpaceX, Blue Origin or Boeing. They all seem equally in the shit

Re: Tent Boxes Destroying Roof Bars
Just saw a car with one on the roof now and curiosity got the better of me. I genuinely thought it would be a few hundred quid. It’s just a tent with a solid floor at the end of the day but WTAF

Re: Elon Musk/Tesla
Well apparently the FCC have to work in the public interest but we’re talking about the US government here…
The other restricting thing even more so than airspace is that there’s only a certain frequency band that the satellites can communicate to earth with. The FCC permit comes with the frequency ...

It’s a good thing he serviced the car at a specialist this whole time, otherwise it would be worth a grand less.

Re: Elon Musk/Tesla
There is the alternative take. Low earth orbit is pretty limited in terms of space for communication satellites. SpaceX by requesting the right to have 100,000 satellites may cock block competition or then have the right to sell those slots to others.

Re: Tent Boxes Destroying Roof Bars
The roof load limits are low because they’re accounting for dynamic weight, they can handle a fair bit more when parked up. I think the roof box tents are stupid though and the sudden proliferation of them just points to another passing fad.

Re: Teh Spotted Thread
Yeah it’s the latter, also I remember reading a lot of the Arab royal family are also diplomats so I wonder if many of them can just whip out the diplomatic immunity card and be excused.

Re: Teh Spotted Thread

A Revuelto. The keen eyed among you will notice the police officer preparing to drive it up the trailer to impound it.
Other impounded cars on trailers were some arab G Wagens and a Urus. Bit weird that they can’t afford to insure their cars.

One for the speed hole lovers
I wonder what the insurance process is like “hello, I’ve modified my car a bit, just cut holes into every structural component…”

Re: The AI Thread
I assume the hope is if you understand the viruses enough to make them then you also have the knowledge to make the cure and then branch out to existing diseases but that’s my optimistic take on things.
