So it has three battery packs each the size of an iphone, yet the battery capacity is only twice that of an iphone? Seems pretty meh, and they lock you in with proprietary connectors.

It’s 25km/h. There is also a 45km/h category with stricter regulation.

Just call up Linustechtips and ask to collab on a zetabyte project. Probably get the storage drives for free, right?

Moreover, killing Youtube will be harder than killing any of these social media. Serving video content is very expensive.

Ads are making a comeback on streaming services. Not only Youtube, which is now getting more serious about blocking ad-blockers, but even on paid streaming. Netflix has an ad supported tier, Amazon runs ads for its own stuff (so far)…

Firefox is behind in some areas, but ahead in others - eg. privacy/tracking.

That is generally true, with exceptions like leaking someone else’s private information.

But it implicates the adjacent “right to be forgotten” rather than narrowly defined “privacy”. This could be a real legal issue in the EU.

what practical nonenterprise uses are these speeds going to have?

None. These are very much enterprise-oriented updates. These extreme speeds are so difficult to achieve that it outweighs the simplification of scaling down the number of lanes. It’s better to use a PCIe 5.0 x16 connection than PCIe 7.0 x4 in consumer hardware.
