If only there was a way to record someone's voice and play it back again, you could easily hack into any voice authentication device. It's a good thing that advanced technology like that is still far in the future.

Intel is still doomed?

TSMC To Produce Intel Core i3 CPUs on 5nm Process Node in 2H 2021, 3nm Mainstream & High-End CPUs Enter Mass Production in 2H 2022

Yes. Intel doesn't just have a process problem. They have an architecture problem. Have you seen what the Apple M1 can do? Even if you shrink down the i3 to 5nm, it still will be a lot slower and higher power than the M1 and it won't come out for two years. Intel should find something else to do because it's CPU business is dead.

I would have been super excited about this new iPad Mini about two years ago. Apple has chosen to neglect this iPad model to its extreme detriment. The iPad Mini was the perfect screen for drone flying but it always had an underpowered CPU and it overheated when used outside in the sun. The screen was never bright enough for outdoor use without a sunshade. Apple could have designed the iPad Mini as the iPad you use when outdoors or on the move as it slips easily into any bag, but no. Apple saw the iPad Mini as a lower cost entry level iPad for those that could not afford one with a larger screen. Dumb dumb dumb.

But ... the TV making decisions about how to display an image is exactly what we don't want, right? We want the director to decide how the image will look and we want the TV to display that image as accurately as possible. The perfect Sony TV should display the identical image as the perfect Samsung TV. AI is great for upscaling, however. Go ahead and clean up 480p video when displaying at 4k but leave 4k native video alone please.

I sure wish it had been Toyota.
