Now you have desktop printers you can buy off the shelf that have almost the same quality. It's almost cheaper to throw them away and buy another one when the toner cartridges run out!
how hard is it to make a robot
that picks tomatoes?
Is this from the Onion? Or is some Bill Gates technodicks pipe dream?
Please feel free to elaborate.
Don't worry. I wear port protectors.
People,are ot going to give up cars or driving like we always have done. The,only plzces this works are places where theyve done it already , specifically,NYC.
The idea that the grid can be counted on and never fail and screw ip millions of people in vehicles depending on systems to be up all the time. Its just too impossible.
Further just in time cars rdducing car numbers 95% is total bs. It will fail because since nobody owns them, the tradge dy of the commons will occur and nobody will want communal cars and the diseases that come with them.
This is just bs libtard panacea projections that nobody ever thinks of the real world outcomes and downsides. Its like the libtards thst tax something and say projected revenue will be X, and thry are always surprised it is always far below X.
My daughter has been going to school in England. She’s used Airbnb a couple times when traveling. Always worked well.
It’ll be a long time before I trust electric or driverless cars. I like to drive too much to trust it to a computer.
My pastor told me the same thing
THE FUTURE IS NOW!
If I recall we should already have flying cars, the earth should be freezing now, no one dies, no more wars.
They idea is to preserve the files, not alter them. Then they can make pictures anytime. And the dyes in negatives fade, too. Try to get a good color print from Kodak 100 film produced forty years ago ... and good luck.
“I like the concept of having a self driving car. But I like the concept of being able to choose, because I like driving. And having a car that drives you, but belongs to someone else who runs what controls the car is repellent to me.”
DriveApp has detected that you, John Doe, Citizen #OU812 is restricted to a 10 mile travel radius. The destination you have chosen is 22 miles away which is outside of your restricted travel area. Would you like to re-route to a destination within your assigned travel area?
See how JIT cars work when a natural disaster or emerency hits and everyone wants cars but as they claim only 5% of the people can actually get a car because 95% of car numbers are gone.
This isnt going to happen. Kost people want to own their car. They dont want to share with strngers. We have illegals here with diseases that can eff you up for life. Yeah will the elite give up personal cars?
Totally moronic. These predictions deny the reality of the human spirit and the human experience.
I hate using my phone for photos. It’s an Apple but the photos are always blurry. We prefer the separate camera.
Ummmm, decaf is in the orange handled pitcher.
That’s the guy who calls me a couple of times a month to tell me my windows computer is throwing error messages.
But in a good way. Sometimes I'll go over to his place for a beer or two and he'll play me some vintage rock on his turntable. Maybe some Steppenwolf or ELO. It's kind of fun to watch his routine. He'll pull the LP off the shelf, carefully remove the paper sleeve and then carefully extract the vinyl. He'll blow on the vinyl and maybe wipe it down with a cloth. Then he'll mount the record to the turntable and go through all the motions of getting the needle to come down on the right track. Then after a few snaps, crackles and hisses, the rich sound of the vinyl will come over the speakers.
I agree that vinyl records produce a more satisfying sound with a quality hi-fi system but the deal-killer for me is that they aren't very portable.
Kodak was actually one of the early players in digital photography. They produced a professional quality dslr by putting their digital back on a Nikon N90s film camera.
Back when 1.3 megapixels was considered pro level, it was used by a lot of newspaper photographers. That was ample resolution for newspaper photos.
They also produced good quality P&S cameras except they had them made in Japan. I have an old 6mp Kodak, probably around 12 years old. I got it out a few weeks ago and noticed the batteries were all bad. I ordered a couple of new ones and the pictures are indistinguishable from my DSLRs unless you really enlarge them.
I have no idea where they lost their way with digital.
NOW IS THE FUTURE AS OF YESTERDAY!
