    Take a look inside Audi’s new big three-row Q9 SUV

    Tach and speedo cant display your satnav though. I've seen the future and I cannot go back!

    Take a look inside Audi’s new big three-row Q9 SUV

    What if the driver needs to open the Online roadside assistance, while the passenger reads the Legal Notes?? In my poverty spec, single screen vehicle we'd have to take turns!!

    Elon Musk tried to hire OpenAI founders to start AI unit inside Tesla

    Yeah, but Sam Bankman-Altman is seemingly more of a sociopathic bullshit artist than even Elon himself. So I'm sure morals didn't get in his way.

    China kills Meta’s acquisition of Manus as US-China AI rivalry deepens

    I'm not really one to use AI, but last year I used Manus to write some scripts for me (I can't code AT ALL). It handled it pretty well, but then at some point I logged in and saw META's branding on it and just left it where it was. Thankfully I can use it again now if I need to!

    Meta’s AI spending spree is helping make its Quest headsets more expensive

    You would be shocked and disgusted if you ever went on a VR Chat deep dive on YouTube. It is exactly what you described.

    Meta’s AI spending spree is helping make its Quest headsets more expensive

    The billions of dollars went on R&D for things like Meta Rayban glasses and other AR/VR/MR hardware. They developed lenses and screens and all sorts of stuff that they showcase every once in a while. Mark is an ass, but the entire tech world pretending that they don't know how R&D works, and...

    Airport measles case reported in Idaho, state with lowest vaccination rate

    While there are many many problems with Facebook, Meta and Suckerbug, I don't think the sadvote is one of them.

    Adobe takes Creative Cloud into Claude Code-esque territory

    I've not check it out myself yet, but latest version of Davinci Resolve is supposed to have quite a few Lightroom killing features.

    Valve brings native Steam Link app to Apple’s Vision Pro

    For higher resolution headsets, SteamLink is now a better option than Virtual Desktop or ALVR. It's support of dynamic foveated streaming is better, and it transmits a higher resolution than Virtual Desktop is currently able to do. I use it with the Play for Dream MR and it's very impressive.

    Meta, YouTube must pay $3M to woman who got hooked on apps as a child

    The BBC doesn't produce enough interesting content to keep me watching, or even pay for a TV license. Other than films and select TV shows I YouTube almost exclusively. And I choose every video that I watch. Banning YouTube from your house is like not going to a library because it also has comic...

    Nvidia CEO tries to explain why DLSS 5 isn’t just “AI slop”

    If it was just a mod that some third party had made I don't even think people would be mad about it. But the fact that Nvidia is pushing it kinda suggests that this is going to be 'the next thing' and I don't think anyone wants a future where this is the expected standard.

    Apple’s AirPods Max 2 release with H2 chip, boosted ANC in April for $549

    Hmm.. so buy a product with a known fatal flaw, but then give the manufacturer more money so when it inevitably breaks they'll replace it. Sound logic!

    BYD’s latest EVs can get close to full charge in just 12 minutes

    I'm no expert in economics or politics, but I've felt for a while that where China's way of doing things really succeeds is in long-term planning. Whereas here in 'the west' it's a game of politicians trying to personally enrich themselves/friends/donors as quickly as possible before the next...

    More modular design makes MacBook Neo easier to fix than other Apple laptops

    Aren't Chromebooks generally around half the price of these though?

    MS exec: Microsoft’s next console will play “Xbox and PC games”

    RIP Steam Machine I guess. I know the PC enthusiast crowd really want to see Valve win, but the truth is most normie console gamers don't know who the hell Valve are, and if there's a Xbox that plays PC AND Xbox games, and some other PC box thingy that doesn't run Microsoft Word you can guess...
