hybrid/electric cars already do it with regen braking.
Not all of them. It is becoming more common, but for a while Hyundai and Kia didn’t do this, and I know my older Ford doesn’t.
Probably just in the US, since brake lights are only required when pressing the brake pedal. Mercedes illuminates them but then turns the brake lights off once the vehicle comes to a stop using regen.
Faster blink is already used to indicate that one of the lights is burned out. It’s a consequence of the mechanical part that operates (used to operate) the blinking; less resistance caused by a burned out light means it blinks faster
They also indicate slow moving road hazards like a semi carrying an oversized load
Ehh, the 100nm process is over 20 years old at this point, like older than the core2duo processors. Even ignoring power efficiency, the physical size of the chip and the amount of silicon it takes would be concerning.
Since die area is squared, you can make 100 times more processors using a 10nm fab with the same amount of silicon instead of the 100nm process
If it’s sub 10nm, it’ll be ‘good enough’ for common electronics. Cash registers, parking meters, iot and little sensors. Not all chips in cars have to be the latest tech; you don’t need the climate control or ECU to be on the bleeding edge, but it still takes up wafer & space.
windows plans to handle updates the same way Linux does
Windows will have snaps and flatpacks and user repo packages that all update separately using separate update utilities, which are themselves separate from the package manager for the general OS?
No, I’d liken it to an adult giving a child alcohol. I don’t know of any children who pay for their own Internet access.
If your liquor cabinet at home isn’t locked, and your kid steals some, it isn’t any different than not having a locked down Internet connection.
They give out free license for their data, but require following their terms of service.
