BRN Discussion Ongoing

Just noticed the page that displays when you link a hot crapper page here. View attachment 9004

I got banned from that site for saying it’s interesting how the down ramping increases when shorts get taken out.

"More range, less battery:" Lightyear launches world first solar car

Dutch EV maker officially launches world's first production-ready solar car, the Lightyear 0, which can "run for months" without need to plug in.

thedriven.io

Would be nice to be involved here.
"the Lightyear 0 unveiled this week promises up to 1,000+ km driving range between the battery range of 625km (WLTP) and up to 70km of additional daily solar range – in European summer conditions."
Personally all this vegan stuff with these cars lately is a bit puzzling for me. I prefer my cars with a bit of meat incorporated within.

Vegan leather is such a joke. It is vinyl! It's just been rebranded.

You're not wrong there, not only that but its technically not vegan when the oil used to make the vinyl is made from decomposed dinosaurs!!!!
Wankers comes to mind with this one (and clever marketing from the vinyl guys)

With all said and done ,AGM now gone everything spoken, all the companies linked to us, are we still a risk or are we ready to take off

CEO of that company published my first name on a meme on Twitter which he got from the crapper database

Pretty dodgy site/company indeed.

And their CFO came out and supported/justified it. Have saved all that as a screenshot, might come handy one day.

Trust factor of that site has gone down substantially and hence I do not visit that site anymore, who knows how much they misuse our data

I agree, I think more and more companies are turning to vegan leather to show their support of climate change.

Surprisingly, ‘A hefty slice of global greenhouse gas emissions come from the smelly bodily functions of livestock’, in the US cow contribute to 4% of all greenhouse gases produced.

Personally, I’d prefer Betty covered seats.

@Rocket577, I can confirm it’s only a wig.

The following research does not reference AKIDA but comes to an interesting conclusion which I have extracted:​

“When it comes to AI-based autonomous driving, ensuring functional safety of both software and hardware is a critical issue. The principles that are currently developed to support machine learning models (Henriksson et al., 2018; Mohseni et al., 2019) will also apply to SNNs. Similarly, neuromorphic hardware will have to fulfill the same standards as any automotive electronic system: adhere to temperature ranges, be resistant to vibrations, be deterministic and redundant, or contain self-monitoring. For that reason,

only digital neuromorphic systems are candidates for integration in cars,

while the use of analog or mixed-signal neuromorphic hardware seems out of scope at the moment due to their intrinsic variability.

Hence, we suggest to focus on advanced digital systems such as SpiNNaker2 (Yan et al., 2021) or Loihi2 (Orchard et al., 2021) to further explore neuromorphic hardware for automotive radar processing and automated driving in general.”

Their opinion places AKIDA digital SCNN with LSTM at the very head of the queue.

My opinion only DYOR

It would make it the first country to charge farmers for the methane emissions from their animals.

Well at least this wasn't a hit piece. It does however prove the point that "so called experts" don't know as much as the "1000 eyes". A classic case of knowing a little about a lot (but not really understanding) and not a lot about a defined subject. Warren Buffet and Peter Lynch often talk about this approach, ie like "1000 eyes".

It’s idiotic;
leather is a perfect use of a byproduct of the meat industry.
Replacing it with a plastic alternative will do more harm then good for the environment and will not stop the byproduct from being produced
Some vegan people just can’t use their brains properly and marketing is just taking advantage of it.
I will still be ordering leather in my car and furniture

 

[Izzzzzzzzzzy]

Just shy of 2400

But about 20,000 people per month routinely read the forums.

Das alot of advert revenue

In the good old days you could buy genuine Leatherette but now there are so many good fakes it is almost impossible for a lay person to tell the difference.

Hi mkm,

Like you I think leather is aesthetically pleasing.

However, the use of the pejorative term "plastic" is misleading in this context. The "leather" used in Mercedes is made from mushroom mycelia reinforced with bamboo fibres. It is not made from oil.

https://www.mercedes-benz.com/en/ve...rs/vision-eqxx-the-new-benchmark-of-effiency/

The interior: between luxury and nature.​

Mercedes-Benz has forged new paths when developing the interior. The VISION EQXX features a surprising mix of sustainable materials in its interior: from mushrooms to bamboo, cactus and vegan silk. These show that it is still possible to achieve the utmost in automotive luxury without using animal products, whilst creating an inimitable feeling of premium comfort. This fascinating journey has halved the carbon footprint of the leather alone.

Late edition: The mushroom leather is used in the EQXX.

As @alwaysgreen points out, the current production artico leather used in the C Class is vinyl.

Apologies if this is old news…..

Welcome GR. Probs best you read the 4C announcement that the news item quotes and understand it, and or ask questions if things aren't clear.
Most of us are sitting on the edge of our seats waiting for Receipts from Customers to hit $12M in a new 4C ann later this year.

Brainchip Holdings (BRN) | BUY HOLD SELL |​

I for one am delighted to have it closed on Monday 13th June

Before the DOW wrought I was buoyed to see the trading towards the EOD friday. It seemed encouraging with a pull off the low, support for the tripple bottom and buy sell numbers evening up.
Ill take the close and hope a bounce softens the asx day on tuesday.
