I just quit Classic Shell and tried out the stock start menu, and it no longer appears to have the issue. It's possible that it was a problem with the RTM version of Windows 10 that they've fixed since. Since it still takes more than half a second before the search box even shows up (with whatever you've already typed in it), they're probably just buffering input sooner now than they were before.
*shrug* I've got a reasonably modern system (an SSD-backed i7-3770) and there are other people replying to me who have experienced the same thing. This was not a problem on this machine with Windows 7, Windows 8, Start8, or Classic Shell. Only the Windows 10 start menu causes it.
The problem is the delay between pressing the button and the menu appearing. It does not buffer input in that window, and is typically enough time for the first keystroke after hitting start to be missed. It is not related to computer performance.
It's free. I installed it when I got tired of the Win10 start menu lag (if you press the start key and begin typing, the Win10 start menu will delay opening just long enough to miss one or two keystrokes).
No, what I want is an automated taxi. In the case of autonomous cars, the car manufacturer will accept responsibility for any accident caused by the autonomous car, and the insurance of the automated taxi company will take care of the rest.
zfsonlinux hit both unstable and stable releases on Linux earlier than btrfs: if your only definition of stable is how long it's been around on Linux, then btrfs is still less mature.
Being in-tree says nothing about the stability of a module, but ZFS doesn't need to be under the GPL to be in Linus' tree: the GPL does not forbid code aggregation. That said, neither Linus nor the ZoL team want ZoL in Linus' tree.
SSH is my primary interface to the server, but sometimes you've got to get on a box locally, like if you mess up something network related, or you mess up a change to grub, or who knows what. It's not common, but I don't have a serial terminal, so having video output when needed is very important.
Because BTRFS is and has always been redundant? ZFS is far more mature, and stories abound of BTRFS failing on people. BTRFS is still unstable, particularly their RAID5/6 support. Developers should be putting their efforts into ZFS instead of BTRFS.
My file server has a very low-end nVidia graphics card in it. There was some sort of issue with the stock drivers that shipped with the distro, such that I got no video output at all, and I don't have any GUI installed, just text-mode console. I had to install the nVidia drivers to get it working.
Time warp helps, but the more frames you have to interpolate, the worse the inconsistencies are. Using it to quadruple the framerate is not going to fly, because as your head moves, your perspective shifts, and time warp can't account for changes in perspective. There's also the issue that time warp does nothing for the game world itself, and your view moving around at 120Hz while everything in the world is moving at 30Hz is not exactly ideal either.
Motion blur in VR makes you sick to your stomach and makes it really hard to see what's going on. The DK1 suffered from lots of motion blur, and it was very unpleasant. The DK2 added a low-persistence display (the OLEDs turn off while the pixels are changing, and only stay on a shorter amount of time, tricking your brain into reduced perceived motion blur) and it was a huge improvement.
There is an after market HEPA upgrade for the Leaf, it does not come with it, nor does it appear to be available from Nissan. Lots of cars have air filters. None have HEPA filters. Not standard/OEM.
The Rav 4 has ~6" of ground clearance. The Outback and Forrester have ~9" of ground clearance. The Model X has adjustable ground clearance that goes up to 9".
There were photos of 6'1" tall journalists standing under the open doors with a few inches of clearance above that. Most normal people are not a few inches taller than 6'1". The Model X is around 20% larger than a Toyota Rav 4, and gains additional storage space from the lack of a gasoline engine or drive shaft.
You also won't find a budget SUV for $15k, so I'm not sure why you'd expect to find a luxury SUV for that price.
I think swapping has proven to be something that sounds good in theory, but that nobody actually wants in practice. The reason Tesla cited for not going forward with their battery swapping was that there turned out to be no interest in it among their customers. This would suggest that the inconvenience of supercharging for actual customers is lower than non-customers expect it to be.
The base model of the Model X will likely go for $60000 or so.
They've said that the Model X will sell for around $5,000 more than the equivalent Model S. The base Model S (70D) sells for $75,000. As such, we can expect the base Model X to sell for $80,000.
Tesla's production capacity has been slowly ramping up. You're comparing figures over 7 years, and yet they went from building 20 cars per week in August 2012 to 1000 cars per week in 2015. They're going to continue ramping up production, and probably won't hit full production on the Model 3 until 2020 (they say 2018, but history shows they'll probably be a few years behind schedule).
It's likely that Tesla will be capacity constrained for a few years after the Model 3 is released, but I'm not sure how that's a problem. Eventually their production capacity will catch up.

Taxis work fine, they just cost too much. $20 in taxi fare just to save a 30 minute subway ride? No thanks.

Why would I need to give any instructions to the automated taxi other than where I want it to drop me off?
No, what I want is an automated taxi. In the case of autonomous cars, the car manufacturer will accept responsibility for any accident caused by the autonomous car, and the insurance of the automated taxi company will take care of the rest.
In what way is development on ZFS frozen? Development is extremely active, probably far more so than btrfs.
The home kind?

In terms of volume, yes. The point is that it's not smaller than the X5.

The car is 20% larger than a Toyota Rav 4. It's a crossover SUV, and not a particularly small one.
The Model X is larger in volume than your BMW X5. It's ~5" longer, ~6" wider, and ~5" shorter.
The Rav 4 has ~6" of ground clearance. The Outback and Forrester have ~9" of ground clearance. The Model X has adjustable ground clearance that goes up to 9".

Most modern cars have a HEPA filter for the cabin.
Citation needed. I can't find a single car that comes with a manufacturer-installed HEPA filter.
Many cars have cabin filters. None of them are HEPA filters.
The base model of the Model X will likely go for $60000 or so.
