Assuming it's truthful, she wouldn't have been able to make the claim without already having the data meaning there is no reason why we'd all need to 'wait and see' especially with something so damaging to the company.
Assuming it's a lie, all she needs to do is make the false claim and hope it leads to good PR before everyone forgets about it and the news cycle moves on. This explains why she'd tell us to wait and see.
It means someone isn't using a crosswalk but still has the right of way by virtue of being a pedestrian.
Europe actually has incredible adaptive headlight technology that AFAIK was illegal in the US up until very recently. It'll be great to see this rolled out here as it's better for everyone.
"Data will show" if they had the data, they would have shown it already instead of making false promises about the future.
I think the difference this time is that P/S2 to USB was about mobing from a proprietary connector to a universal standard while USB-A to USB-C is moving from one universal standard to another
Its a worthy goal but I don't see it happening for decades as everything still uses USB-A and again there isn't a whole lot of downside to the current configuration as long as you have at least one or two USB-C for the tines when it's uniquely suited.
To be fair, the incident they're referring to was from a driver hitting a pedestrian which then knocked them into the path of the Cruise vehicle. They actually do a pretty good job of not hitting things but every incident gets amplified greatly.
Still any more than 2 seems like a waste since PCs also have dedicated video, audio, power, and data ports. USB-C makes sense on laptops and phones because you can lump all those things into one or two ports. This isn't necessary on a PC and just adds extra cost with little benefit.
My board from 2018 has a rear USB-C and header for front USB-C. I've only used only one of them a handful of times in all these years to transfer large files to/from a phone and this is coming from someone with a lot of different devices that use USB to interface with the PC.
And if you're spending all that money, why not get the bigger board that allows you more options/room to grow in the future? I imagine SFF PCs are more common for dedicated builds or aesthetic reasons
How the heck is USB-A a legacy port and what would I do with 11 USB-C ports on a PC when everything I plug into it besides my phone (depending on the cable) has a USB-A connector? Like how would I even use something as simple as a flash drive or Bluetooth/wifi/radio transmitter?
USB-C makes a ton more sense for mobile devices, docks, and charging, but not so much when you're plugging them into a suitcased size brick that doesn't move. I could see useful applications for something powered that needs a lot of bandwidth, but PCs also come with dedicated ports for all those peripherals too.
That's too bad because the specs OP listed are pretty great plus I'd love to see the Raspberry Pi Foundation (or whichever corporate entity controls production and sales) knocked down a few pegs due to their anti-consumer behavior over the last several years.
