Bipedal robots make sense only because the infrastructure around was made for humans. Wheeled and tracked robots can have trouble though spaces designed for humans. Designing with wheelchair access is mind had to happen on purpose. A small set of stairs or uneven terrain can create a big challenge.

Technology makes possibilities and not outcomes. The idea of a bipedal mechanical assistant that can carry , move and lift items for the elderly , on call 24/7 could be another possibility.

It’s likely things would go as you say. Still there is a possibility that some other applications could come out of this kind of bipedal platform as well.

Delivering mail is a complex task for a machine. This is a technology forum so at some point we should be excited that there are possibilities in the future.

The distance these devices could go gives many more possibilities than a similar platform that can move shorter distances.

My first thought for a platform that could move through human spaces at 13 miles an hour was a military robot for urban combat similar to a terminator. So mail delivery robot is the optimistic version of the future.

Pretty impressive. The ability to operate 13 miles continuously makes un-teatherd humanoid robots viable for a lot of tasks. Once the AI is developed they could deliver mail or stock items in a department store.

It’ll be interesting to see how long it will be from this race before we see bi-pedal robots completing a full marathon.

Depends on how deep your node graph gets. My friend who does video has a pair of beefy gpu’s(4090?). To get fully smooth and interactive video.

Resolve is the only application that I see 128gb or more of ram as actually making a difference.

Perfect sentiment! Change your tools so they work well for you.

I was surprised to see the camera tether feature.

Photoshop is much easer to use for photo editing. Still this might be free. There are typically resolution restriction on the free version of resolve. We’ll have to see if that applies to photos.

Resolve is notoriously bad with high resolution video. I wonder how well it will handle 40Mp and above images.

This is due to the demographic crunch. There are just fewer young people to go around.

Less choices from smaller trade focused colleges like the one in the article will focus into larger city focused colleges.

The article is talking about a farming specific school that was small and hands on. Some tasks can be learned in a trade school, but stuff like running a farm will be learned from family, or in places like this.

So you’ll have to be born into it or be wealthy enough to go to a top tier school to run a farm. Now working on the farm would be a trade.

This is about "nonprofit four-year colleges and universities, " These are NOT for profit colleges.

Years ago with Catholics during the first Trump presidency they would side with Republican talking points over church guidance, and that was on the Wall.

It’s going to be a short fight where the Catholic church realizes that in a choice between Fox news and the Church, Fox News is what America Catholics believe in. I bet they could even get a bishop or two to follow.

That’s one way to solve the AI data center cooling issue. Of course it would make the data centers deadly to support staff, so I anticipate that will make it to market.

This article seems to be focused on manufacturing for the Chinese domestic market, not the export of cars. They are worried about being shut out of the Chinese market.

So there is a joke in the USA that if you don’t have a girlfriend you pretend you have one. She’s always super pretty, but your friends can never meet her because she lives in Canada.

Let me guess, this super ai lives in Canada and we can never meet it, but it’s totally real.

There were many other formats that came and went between vhs and dvd. There is a lot of media history being conveniently forgotten to make it seem like VHS was the only video format until 1995.

I owned many of them at the time they came out. They all had advantages and drawbacks.

when using the tv’s in most homes at the time, the advantages didn’t matter. You needed to use high resolution composite computer monitors with the video sources and surround sounds equipped receivers to get a significantly different experience. That was such an expensive niche .

The killer thing that vhs had over the numerous formats that came and went was price.

Once dvd got inexpensive enough it took over. That was about a decade after DVD’s introduction.

I agree that dvd will likely outlive the legacy of VHS in pure years.

It’s a pretty obvious graphic pattern. It wouldn’t be crazy to think that it would have been developed independently of any influence.

Still what you mention looks dead on

Wouldn’t that just be a soccer ball?

Maybe I haven’t used it enough, but I don’t think it’s that big of a deal. I may just need to game more, or play the ‘right’ games. I DO like the crt I have. I don’t at all feel issue jumping on to a modern OLED 55" LG.

I went though quote a hassle and around $900 getting the CRT I have working. If this was for gaming it wouldn’t have been worth it.

I have

When an objects time was nearly 5 decades that puts a bit of context around it. By modern standards nearly everything from decades ago is garbage.

VHS has many competitors, but they were too expensive to really challenge for regular people.

The quality of the media determined the quality of your experience. Cheap tapes broke and looked bad. The fact that a tape could be rented from blockbuster dozens of times really showed the durability of the media. Many tapes I had were pulled from rental pools and they looked acceptable.

VHS stood for nearly 30 years before it was credibly replaced. Just because something was eventually replaced doesn’t mean it was bad. It was an awesome format because it was affordable. You could have always mortgaged a home and purchased a professional deck.

There were plenty of other formats that came and went during VHS. Many took away consumers control of content. Only when flash cards came commonplace was the VHS and the ability to make mix and match your own media replicated.

You could deck to deck make your own tapes if you wanted and edit with scissors and tape.

I went looking for data and it seems cd sales are on the decline again. So my info is outdated. It looks like it was trending younger with Taylor swift and k-pop titles as the top sellers. It appears to be less of a revival and more of a fad.

It looks like vinyl is still growing in 2026 even while cd decrease again.

It’s a bummer since artist can get a bigger cut of physical media sales and cd are easier to make than a records.
