dr_rat posted:I mean the thing about this is small frequent light weight vehicles going through underground railed tunnels, if you figured out bunch of issues could theoretically work, but this just seems to be going about it in the absolutely dumbest way. It's purposefully designed so that only a handful of rich people can use it. The inefficiency is a feature.

This will be the primary way — apparently the only way — of navigating and interacting with the TV, complete with gestures for “throwing” content from one Displace TV to another.

More consumer devices should brick themselves when hitting 0% imo. Maybe call it hardcore mode, people will love it!

It’s just more industrial internet of things cruft. It’s hard for me to imagine an application where a screw is the best place for a component like this unless it’s part of some fault management system. If it was, say, an airplane, you could imagine an array of smart screws reporting airframe stress that could be used for predictive maintenance.

I think that a screw should focus on its primary purpose, which is holding things together

DR FRASIER KRANG posted:strain gaged screws are absolutely a thing even outside of aerospace. sure, but they’re not usually communicating that data with a central server in some IoT scheme, right? Not that I think there are all that many factories really leveraging all that info or even using the tech; it felt like marketing nonsense back when I was doing the marketing nonsense, anyway. Seemed like nobody was doing anything more complicated than the average library in terms of putting their “things” online.

Cup Runneth Over posted:I think that a screw should focus on its primary purpose, which is holding things together I could see a purpose for a passively-powered RFID tag in a fastener. I can wave a scanner over something and it will tell me that (6) fasteners are in place, much quicker than manually checking that they're all still there.

Potential for matience logging data too I guess, 'fastener was installed on this date by this person etc etc'.
