No need to buy these, unless you need to compensate something. You can get pretty good Android phones with security updates for a while for $200-300. The reason Samsung is even offering these is that there are enough fools that can lay their hands on enough money.
No. And you forgot to state in your hypothetical that the vehicle in question is dangerous even without the software problems and requires you to be perfectly healthy and agile to get an approximation of a safe ride.
Do not write critical real-time software if you do not have what it takes to make it work right. This cannot be done on the cheap successfully. But I guess you are learning that now.
I am not tied to AMD64 if I can get the same or better performance elsewhere at the same or better price. However, I expect that single-core performance will be pretty lacking and that would be a show-stopper.
Why are you on Gnome if you do not like it? I use a decades old fvwm config that works exactly as I like. This is not windows where you have no or very little control over how your desktop looks.
Well, the nuclear fanatics (that want nuclear power for one reason: it gives them the bomb) were never above the most outrageous lies to justify their stance. Today, there is zero rational reason to go for terrestrial nuclear power. Cheap and reliable storage for electricity is about to become available and had been demonstrated already. Solar, wind, water is quite enough to deliver all energy needed. The problem of processing and storing nuclear waste safely is _still_ unsolved. We now had 4 "happen at most every 100 years" size nuclear catastrophes. And the list goes on.
"Real Facts" is an instance of the "Big Lie", first described in writing by Goebbels: Basically, when you know something is untrue, you claim repeatedly and forcefully that it is true. Many people fall for that.
I have no problem with the data-plan. Main uses: Access my calendar (read only), occasionally check my email, like 3-4 times a day and use the phone as a hot-spot for my laptop. I also carry old-fashioned paper and that is what I used to make notes in meetings.
The online-junkies are really doing it to themselves. Time for them to grow up.
.. is enough for "centuries", then what we have should run out in less than a year? Seems somebody has trouble with numbers. While Uranium that can be mined is not nearly as plentiful as the nuclear-mafia wants you to believe, it should be enough for a few decades, given that no new reactors are constructed.
Indeed. In fact, I consider a not easily replaced battery a severe design defect and will not buy, but many people do not really understand what they are getting into by not insisting.
Does this include, say, calls to murder specific people and the like? Usually you place a limit on calls to criminal activity and for very good reasons.

Nice idea, needs more time.
Well, they probably have some nice piece of software that is supposed to assure that. After all, software does not have faults, right?
No. And you forgot to state in your hypothetical that the vehicle in question is dangerous even without the software problems and requires you to be perfectly healthy and agile to get an approximation of a safe ride.

You mean people made a grave mistake and are now trying to push the blame for that on somebody else? Makes sense to me.
Could not agree more. And anyways, it is not "the engineers", it would be marketing people and designers.

Yes, indeed. That is right on the mark.
I find it fascinating that you Trump-fanatics never have any good arguments _for_ your choices, only the usual, invalid "the others are worse".
Ah, I see, it is indeed "fusion", but in a completely useless way.
1. It is electricity at 50kV. Voltage is not an "amount" of electricity.
2. You can get HV generators for 50kV cheaply on eBay.
Fusion is something else. Nobody will build that privately for a long, long time.
Learn to read. I do quite well understand how this works. I am just complaining about the situation.
Does he even understand what that word means?
Hyped wunderkind, complete fraud, and now she gets to walk away? That is not right.
Well, yes. But now anybody can do it in a minute with minimal effort.
Indeed. In fact, I consider a not easily replaced battery a severe design defect and will not buy, but many people do not really understand what they are getting into by not insisting.
You think I am easy to replace? I am not. But you are a dime a dozen and all equally incompetent.
