Samba vw classifieds

So I was playing FH1, with all DLCs installed, and I just beat Ramona.
I had enough money, and thought, since I used a VW Scirocco R for the last time, I thought I’ll use a rather oddball car.
The two I had in mind were the HPD Fit and the Focus RS500
I first bought the HPD Fit, and threw a lot of money to bring it to B class, including an engine swap, upgraded drivetrain and turbo as well as some weight reduction.
However, I was shocked, no, flabbergasted because apparently
THE GAME DOES NOT CONSIDER THE FIT AS A HATCHBACK
It suggested the Corrado VR6, but I was keeping it stock for any C class races.
So I’m wondering, how exactly is a hatchback classified.
Also, should I proceed with the RS500? I don’t think many people have used it, so I wanna give it a go.

Mineral Resources
Until mineral deposits are actually mined and processed, mineral resources must be considered as estimates only. Mineral resource estimates that are not classified as mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The estimation of mineral resources is inherently uncertain, involves subjective judgement about many relevant factors and may be materially affected by, among other things, environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant risks, uncertainties, contingencies and other factors described in the foregoing Cautionary Statements on Forward-Looking Statements. The quantity and grade of reported "inferred" mineral resource estimates are uncertain in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define "inferred" mineral resource estimates as an "indicated" or "measured" mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in upgrading "inferred" mineral resource estimates to an "indicated" or "measured" mineral resource category. The accuracy of any mineral resource estimates is a function of the quantity and quality of available data, and of the assumptions made and judgments used in engineering and geological interpretation, which may prove to be unreliable and depend, to a certain extent, upon the analysis of drilling results and statistical inferences that may ultimately prove to be inaccurate. The quantity and grade of "inferred" mineral resource estimates are uncertain in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define "inferred" mineral resource estimates as an "indicated" or "measured" mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in upgrading "inferred" mineral resource estimates to an "indicated" or "measured" mineral resource category. Mineral resource estimates may have to be re-estimated based on, among other things: (i) fluctuations in mineral prices; (ii) results of drilling and development; (iii) results of geological and structural modeling including stope design; (iv) metallurgical testing and other testing; (v) proposed mining operations including dilution; and (vi) the possible failure to receive and/or maintain required permits, licenses and other approvals. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of a "inferred", "indicated" or "measured" mineral resource estimate will ever be upgraded to a higher category including a mineral reserve.
Mineral resource estimates disclosed by the Company were estimated and reported in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 of the Canadian Securities Administrators ("NI 43-101") using Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum ("CIM") Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (the "CIM Standards"), which govern the public disclosure of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects by Canadian issuers such as Excellon, and applying the CIM's Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves Best Practices guidelines (as applicable). For additional discussion of the Company's mineral resource estimates at the Company's projects and La Negra, as well as an overall more detailed discussion of such projects, the reader should refer to the AIF and the applicable Technical Reports.
U.S. Readers
The terms "mineral resource", "measured mineral resource", "indicated mineral resource" and "inferred mineral resource" as disclosed by the Company are Canadian mining terms defined in the CIM Standards (collectively, the "CIM Definitions") in accordance with NI 43-101. NI 43-101 establishes standards for all public disclosure that a Canadian issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects. These Canadian standards differ from the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") applicable to United States domestic and certain foreign reporting companies under Subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K ("S-K 1300"). Accordingly, information describing mineral resource estimates for the Company's projects and La Negra, may not be comparable to similar information publicly reported in accordance with the applicable requirements of the SEC, and so there can be no assurance that any mineral resource estimate for the Company's projects or La Negra would be the same had the estimates been prepared per the SEC's reporting and disclosure requirements under applicable United States federal securities laws, and the rules and regulations thereunder, including but not limited to S-K 1300. Further, there is no assurance that any mineral resource or mineral reserve estimate that the Company may report under NI 43-101 would be the same had the Company prepared such estimates under S-K 1300.
Preliminary Economic Assessments (or PEAs)
A PEA, including the La Negra PEA, is only a conceptual study of the potential viability of the subject project's mineral resource estimates, and the economic and technical viability of the project and its estimated mineral resources has not been demonstrated. A PEA is preliminary in nature and provides only an initial, high-level review of the subject project's potential and design options; there is no certainty that a PEA will be realized. The conceptual LOM plan and economic model in a PEA include numerous assumptions and mineral resource estimates including inferred mineral resource estimates. Inferred mineral resource estimates are considered to be too speculative geologically to have any economic considerations applied to such estimates. Under NI 43-101, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility studies, pre-feasibility studies or other economic studies, except in prescribed cases, such as in a preliminary economic assessment under certain circumstances. There is no guarantee that inferred mineral resource estimates will be converted to indicated or measured mineral resources, or that indicated or measured mineral resources can be converted to mineral reserves. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability, and as such there is no guarantee the economics described in any PEA, including the La Negra PEA, will be achieved. Mineral resource estimates may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant risks, uncertainties and other factors, as more particularly described in the foregoing other Cautionary Statements of this news release.

2023.05.13 00:44 Keksy24 Engine oil.

Oh boy, here we go again. As I came into possession of this wonderful VW T2 Westfalia with a 1800cc engine, I'm now rapidly learning everything about it. I do however have a question, for that exact engine, what's the best oil and how often do I have to top it up? I've already done about a 1000 miles from the last oil check. Which oil is the best for the moderate UK climate and the upcoming heatwave, would it be 20W50 or something different? Are my reading comprehension skills completely screwed, or am I reading this correctly on TheSamba - T2's gearbox has a different oil that also needs changing? Please help :(

2023.05.08 18:28 Flimsy-Union1524 The Citizen Hearing on UFO Disclosure - Held at the National Press Club, Washington D.C. April 29th - May 3rd, 2013 - IF THE CONGRESS WON'T DO ITS JOB, THE PEOPLE WILL. - Short Videos (147 Videos!)

The Citizen Hearing on UFO Disclosure set out to accomplish what the U.S. Congress had failed to do for forty-five years - seek out the facts surrounding the most important issue of this or any other time - evidence pointing toward an extraterrestrial presence engaging the human race.
Held at the National Press Club, Washington D.C. April 29th - May 3rd, 2013. Forty researchers along with military/agency/political persons of high rank and station came to testify to six former members of the United States Congress.
The main ballroom of the National Press Club was configured to resemble a Senate hearing room. There were press areas, an audience area, witness tables and committee tables. Protocols for congressional hearings were followed as closely as possible during the testimony. Committee members received written statements from witnesses, heard oral statements and asked whatever questions they wished about the subject matter at hand.
Hearing witnesses testified for thirty hours over five days in five morning and five afternoon sessions, each composed of two panels of witnesses, each panel lasting approximately ninety minutes.
In the evenings, additional lectures were given by a number of top researchers in the field up Ufology.
The Citizen Hearing on UFO Disclosure was a historic event. We are excited to be able to make the footage available, and allow these brave testimonies to become part of the public record on the topic of UFOs.
Citizen Hearing on UFO Disclosure:
IF THE CONGRESS WON'T DO ITS JOB, THE PEOPLE WILL.

The Citizen Hearing on UFO Disclosure set out to accomplish what the U.S. Congress had failed to do for forty-five years - seek out the facts surrounding the most important issue of this or any other time - evidence pointing toward an extraterrestrial presence engaging the human race.
Held at the National Press Club, Washington D.C. April 29th - May 3rd, 2013. Forty researchers along with military/agency/political persons of high rank and station came to testify to six former members of the United States Congress.
The main ballroom of the National Press Club was configured to resemble a Senate hearing room. There were press areas, an audience area, witness tables and committee tables. Protocols for congressional hearings were followed as closely as possible during the testimony. Committee members received written statements from witnesses, heard oral statements and asked whatever questions they wished about the subject matter at hand.
Hearing witnesses testified for thirty hours over five days in five morning and five afternoon sessions, each composed of two panels of witnesses, each panel lasting approximately ninety minutes.
In the evenings, additional lectures were given by a number of top researchers in the field up Ufology.
The Citizen Hearing on UFO Disclosure was a historic event. We are excited to be able to make the footage available, and allow these brave testimonies to become part of the public record on the topic of UFOs.
Citizen Hearing on UFO Disclosure:
IF THE CONGRESS WON'T DO ITS JOB, THE PEOPLE WILL.

2023.05.02 01:42 _Revelator_ Clarkson's Columns: Who Really Starts All the Wars & Auf Wiedersehen to the Volkswagen Golf

Who really starts all the wars? It’s the green-eyed monster
By Jeremy Clarkson (Sunday Times, April 28)
All week we have been reading about the plight of British people in Sudan and how they’ve been trapped in their homes by fierce gun battles in the streets. We’ve been told that the British ambassador was on holiday when the fighting began, that the Germans were quicker to respond to the crisis than we were, and that food is running out fast. We’ve even had witness accounts from those who successfully fled.
But we haven’t been told what the fighting is about. One well-spoken and eloquent man claimed last week it was a proxy war between the US and Russia, but he was speaking to me via TikTok, which is home to many of the world’s most swivel-eyed lunatics. So I have to take his views with a pinch of salty scepticism, I’m afraid.
Even the BBC has been unable to fill us in on what’s happening. Is it really another flicker of flame in the Cold War’s recent reignition? Or is it a tribal squabble over the country’s natural resources? Or is it perhaps a burst of wayward Islamist extremism that threatens to engulf the entire region? Selfishly, I’m quite interested, because by the time you read this, I’ll be camped out, in a minefield, in that neck of the woods. And if I do encounter some kind of IED, it’d be nice to know, as I rapidly disassemble while flying through the air, who put it there and why.
I do know that I can’t run from my current position because that would eventually put me in Mali or Chad and I certainly can’t go to either of those places, unless I want to wind up in an orange jumpsuit, being beheaded on the internet — the Foreign Office is very clear about that. But who is it that wants to cut off my head? On that, there’s no clarity at all.
I’ve just checked and last year in each of these countries armed conflicts claimed between a thousand and ten thousand lives: Colombia, Niger, Nigeria, Afghanistan, Iraq, Burkina Faso, Mali, Syria, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Somalia, Yemen, Mexico, Myanmar and Ethiopia. And were it not for a bit of poor marksmanship, Cameroon, Mozambique and Pakistan would be on the list as well. And do you know what all these conflicts are about? With the possible exception of Mexico, where I think we all have a pretty clear idea, the answer is no.
Except of course, we do. As often as not, it’s envy. A drug lord is envious of a rival’s turf, so he breaks out the MAC-10s and pretty soon people are dangling from every motorway bridge in the land. Or a tribal leader is envious of another tribal leader’s shiny new Chinese-made helicopter gunship, or an impoverished Malian camel herder is envious when a fat westerner cruises past in an air-conditioned 4x4.
Envy doesn’t just cause armed conflict either. You look at all those people running around in France, setting fire to bin bags and making mooing noises in the expensive bits of Paris, and it quickly becomes obvious that their main beef is not Macron’s bid to raise the retirement age to 24, or his insistence that civil servants should turn up for work at least one day in their lives: it’s envy of people who are so rich they can not only afford to have bin bags but also to fill them every day with stuff they don’t even want.
Closer to home, we have those fools who keep glueing themselves to things. You’ll notice they don’t do this in Pontefract or Phnom Penh. It’s always Knightsbridge or Mayfair. They don’t care about loft insulation any more than you or I do. They just want to annoy the comfortably off, because they’re envious of our holidays and our golf bats and how we can go to work in a car, rather than in a mist of sweat and danger on a two-wheeled children’s toy.
I don’t understand this mentality at all. I’m not a religious man and think that five of the Ten Commandments are absolute nonsense. But I do go with the one that says you shouldn’t covet your neighbour’s ox. Or even your neighbour’s helicopter.
Here in Chipping Norton, I have three neighbours who regularly fly over my house in their Agusta 109 choppers, and I never think, as they whomp off to yet another amazing caviar-and-champagne evening: “Right. I’m going to behead you for that.” I’m happy for them.
I’m reminded at this point of the observation that when an American tramp sees a rich man cruise past in a limousine, he thinks: “One day, I’ll have one of those.” But when a British tramp sees a rich man purr by in a limo, he thinks: “One day I’ll have him out of that.”
Which brings me on to Ryan Reynolds. He was born good-looking and, thanks to a quick wit and excellent comic timing, became not just an extremely successful film star but also the owner of a Welsh football club. And I never want to remove a single ox from his foldyard.
I can understand that you might be a bit aggrieved if you’d been born in poverty in wartorn Yemen. You see clips of western pop stars on the television, getting into their G-Wagens, and you’re bound to think: “Why should he have one of those when all I have is this goat?” Luck’s a hard concept to grasp when you don’t have any.
But I will be jolly cross if I am blown to smithereens in the desert this week because someone thinks his camel will be less manky if someone with a better camel isn’t alive any more. The world doesn’t work like that, and no one should want it to.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
My fond auf Wiedersehen to the Volkswagen Golf
After 49 years, it’s the end of the road for the car Jeremy Clarkson has recommended to everyone
By Jeremy Clarkson (Sunday Times, April 28)
A few months ago Ford announced that it would soon stop making the Fiesta. This was a surprise, but it was nothing compared with what came next. Because not long after Volkswagen said that there would soon be no more Golfs. The Fiesta is one thing but no more Golfs?!?! That’s like saying there will be no more shoes. Or no more nitrogen. Or no more soil.
I dimly remember a time before the Golf. It was all very monochromatic and dull. The Houses of Parliament and Westminster Abbey were obsidian black. Women wore bloomers. Miners wore ties and boys wore shorts. But then, in 1974, along came VW’s little hatchback and suddenly everything was in colour.
Designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro, the man who gave us the Lotus Esprit, the Maserati Ghibli, the BMW M1 and just about every other good-looking car ever made, it landed in a world full of brown Austin Allegros like the Ramones landed on the music scene in that same year.
But it was the GTI version, which came along three years later, that would really put it on the map. I know people who scrimped and saved to buy a GTI. And I know people who part-exchanged a Gordon-Keeble to get one. Like the Mini, it was a classless car; if one pulled up outside your house, you wouldn’t have a clue who was going to get out of it, the plumber or Mick Jagger.
And it not only covered all the people, it covered all the bases too. It was fast, a blast to drive, easy to repair, cheap to run and it had a hatchback and a folding back seat, so it was practical as well. All on its own this car hammered a nail into the coffin of the traditional sports car, because why have an MG or a Triumph TR when the Golf GTI was so much better in every single way.
Let’s not focus too sharply on the GTI, though, because it was the ordinary version that accounted for 85 per cent of the sales. And I shall miss it because it has been my standard answer to anyone who has ever asked me what car they should drive. Have you just passed your driving test? Get a Golf. Are you old? Get a Golf. Do you need something for the school run? Get a Golf. It was the only car anyone ever needed.

Clarkson with a Mk 5 Golf R32, 2006
Which is why, when Volkswagen announced that it’s soon to die, many commentators took it upon themselves to write soppy pieces about how they used a Golf on their honeymoon and how Princess Diana had one and how brilliant that Paula Hamilton ad was, and how it was the second-best-selling car of all time — after the Toyota Corolla — and I’m afraid I wasn’t thinking like that at all. Instead I was thinking that something sinister is going on
It has long been suggested that if the motor car were invented today, there isn’t a government in the world who’d let ordinary members of the public drive one. The military maybe and the police. But ordinary people? Going where they wanted? In a two-ton steel missile? Not a chance. In a modern-day democracy that would be considered absurd.
In Nazi Germany, however, it wasn’t absurd at all. Hitler had built his autobahns and was keen for the German people to use them to move about at whatever speed took their fancy. So he hit upon the idea of a “people’s car”. Literally a Volks Wagen.
A thrusting young engineer called Ferdinand Porsche came up with the design, a factory was built and, hey presto, the world had the Beetle. And the world, incredibly, wanted it. Even though it was a product of Nazi Germany, it went on to become part of the uniform in hippy-trippy California and even the star of the Herbie film series for children. My mum had one, and as a child I’d lie in bed every winter morning listening to it being used to bump start my dad’s Ford Cortina.
I prayed it would succeed because, God, I hated that car. I hated the smell. I hated the noise its air-cooled engine made. I hated its rear-axle arrangement. I hated the sloping bonnet and the upholstery and its slowness. And if I’d known about the Nazi connection back then, I’d have hated it for that as well.
I was alone, though. Because there’d been a battle between Herbie and Hitler and Herbie had won. Which meant that the world had the first car ever to come with a personality. And the world loved it so much that, over the years, 21.5 million were sold.
And it wasn’t just the Beetle. France had the Citroën 2CV. Italy had the Fiat 500. Britain had the Mini. Japan had the Datsun Cherry. America had the Ford Mustang. People were being mobilised. They had the means to travel and see things and do stuff and become cleverer. And on this went through the Seventies with the Golf and company car culture and factories everywhere churning out millions of people’s cars every month.
Except in the Soviet Union, North Korea, Cuba and places like that. Lefty states don’t like their people to travel and get cleverer. They want them queueing for bread and trying to make brake fluid out of shampoo. And then, after a 12-hour shift at the People’s Tractor Factory No 47, they want them at home watching a state-sponsored news channel about the country’s glorious success in that week’s weightlifting competition.
All of which brings me on to modern-day Oxford, where residents may not use a car to see their relatives if they live on the other side of the city, and outer London, where you must give the glorious mayor all of your money if you wish to drive to the shops to buy bread. And that’s before we get to the motorways, which are no longer provided to shorten your journey. They exist solely to catch out the inattentive and fine them. Hard.
In just 20 years an unholy alliance of pink-haired climate enthusiasts, bossy local authorities and a succession of national governments guided by the madness of Twitter has turned the car from a tool of the free to something that should be sneered at. And then turned upside down and burnt.
We have now reached a point in the UK where two out of three people aged 17 to 20 don’t have a driving licence. And in a world like that, where you’re fined for driving too fast and made to feel embarrassed for driving at all and there’s never anywhere to park, what does a people’s car look like?
A Golf? Not really. It’s now too big and everyone sort of knows they can buy exactly the same car, for less, if it has a Skoda badge on the boot lid. Plus, it’s not electric.
The people’s car of the future will have to be electric. Everyone knows that. But everyone is wrong because electric cars will always be too expensive. And you can’t have a people’s car if the people can’t afford it.
I fear then that the people’s car of the future won’t really be a car in the accepted sense at all. It’ll be something like Citroën’s dizzyingly slow Ami, which will be operated in much the same way as the Boris bikes in London. You put your credit card in the slot, drive to wherever you’re going and then leave it at the side of the road for someone else to use. State-run utopia.
I hope I’m dead by then. But in the meantime I’ve just had a quick look in the online classifieds, and you can buy a Mk 1 Golf GTI for about £25,000.

Jeremy’s love letters to a classic
May 23, 2004
“The Golf GTI made a deal of sense. Here was a car that had a big practical boot at the back and a fuel-injected 110bhp engine at the front. It was the car for all reasons, the automotive pig, capable of producing ham, bacon, sausages and pork. You could even eat its ears and its feet.”
December 6, 2005
“My Golf GTI reminds me of the good old days in the White Horse in Fulham when everyone had one, with Val d’Isère mud up the side.”
June 11, 2017
“It’s equipped like a Bentley, it goes like a Ferrari and in traffic, because it’s just a Golf and it’s grey, no one takes my picture.”
July 28, 2019
“You may think that Volkswagen puts its best brains and engineers into Bugatti or Bentley, but it doesn’t. The real boffins work on the bread that pays for the jam.”

2023.04.20 20:47 mvis_thma Let's Talk Business. Innoviz AMA with Omer Keilaf and Tali Chen

Just watched the Innoviz AMA. It was hosted by Omer Keilaf, their CEO and co-founder, and Tali Chen, their Chief Business Officer. Both of them were very good at presenting and provided an easy and comfortable way of answering the questions. These were selected questions provided by the audience, but I don't believe they were taking any questions in real-time, as they had printed pages in front of them. The highlighted parts below signify my commentary.
EDIT: I had a chance to rewatch the AMA. I have made some updates below where all updates are designated by the word "EDIT".
I did find it interesting that the title of the AMA was "Let's Talk Business". In my opinion, this was the key element of the Microvision Investor Day. Coincidence? You decide.

Innoviz has either been awarded or working towards an award with 9 out of the top 10 OEMs. that is impressive. EDIT: Many people are saying that Innoviz stated there a 9 RFQs currently. They never said that, but rather they said they have either won or are competing for RFQs for 9 out of the top 10 OEMs. We know they already have won something with VW, BMW, perhaps they count Audi as a win over and above VW, and perhaps there are others.
Still working to launch with BMW this year. Seem confident it will happen. COVID contributed to the delays, due to travel restrictions.
Inflection point for LiDARs is 2025 regarding volumes - 100K volume. I am not sure I interpreted this accurately. It seems 100K volume is a bit low for an inflection point. Perhaps this is simply the beginning of volume ramp up. Sumit has said this is 2026 for Microvision. Which makes sense since Innoviz is ahead from a timeline perspective. EDIT: They actually stated having multiple customers with 100K volumes. Omer said 100K + 100K, so they expect at least 200K volume for 2025.
NRE revenue will help sustain them until 2025. Can be between $10M and $50M for a given OEM program. They are competing for a program now that will be $50M of NRE. I think this is interesting information. It provides us with some understanding of the potential NRE revenue if Microvision is awarded a deal. EDIT: Someone pointed out that these dollar figures would be for a Tier 1. Since Microvision will not be the Tier 1, the NRE revenue would most likely be lower.
They feel they are very close to winning several programs.
What are the reasons an OEM will choose a LiDAR supplier? An OEM chooses a supplier by product performance (KPIs), pricing, computer vision (is a must), and industrialization (He said other OEM validation goes a long way here). He mentioned that BMW is planning to use the Innoviz computer vision. I believe he is using the term computer vision to mean perception capabilities.
What is the process of a sales cycle? The RFI is the beginning. OEMs send their RFI to a subset of LiDAR suppliers (ones they believe will possibly have the capabilities they are looking for). The RFI is mostly technical but has some commercial aspects. After 6 months or so go by, they send out an RFQ. The RFQ is sent to a subset of the RFI suppliers. The RFQ is a very long process, in addition to technical capabilities it also contains questions regarding commercial elements, pricing, and legal aspects. Many, many meetings are required throughout the RFQ process, including travel by the OEM to the providers locations. EDIT: They did say the RFI process is about 6 months and the RFQ process is about 6 months.
All the wins that Innoviz has announced in the last year they consider "Series Production" wins. Previously, they considered their wins as "Design" wins. I don't think I fully understand this. But that is what they said. They talked more about this, but it was confusing to me. Perhaps there will be a recording of this AMA available. I would like to relisten to this part. EDIT: Upon relistening to the AMA, I got this wrong. They classify two categories of wins, something they call "Pre-Production" and another type they term a "Design" win. They consider a "Design" win a Series Production award. All of the wins they announced over the past year have been of the "Design" win category. They alluded to the fact that the annoucement they made last week with the commercial company is somewhere between a "Pre-Production" win and a "Design" win. That is, they are under negotiations and believe it will soon turn in to a "Design" win.
Omer said they got a lot of questions about dynamic view LiDAR vs. static LiDAR. He mentioned that Innoviz could do dynamic view LiDAR if needed (implying they don't today). He referenced the fact that they could focus their laser points in a specific Region of Interest (ROI) if required. However, he said that the OEMs would never allow this type of setup. He said the variability of this type of runtime capability would not be allowed by the OEMs, they want a fixed (static) capability that is highly predictable. He referenced the fact that various use cases may need different configurations, but these would be pre-configured and fixed for a particular application. He said he got a lot of questions on the "dynamic view" topic. I am guessing these questions came as a result of the Microvision Investor Day last week, but I can't be sure. If he was addressing the Microvision version of Dynamic View LiDAR, he either did a poor job of refuting it or he does not understand the Microvision solution. My guess is that he does not fully understand the Microvision solution. The Microvision solution is actually a static "dynamic view" LiDAR. That is, the Microvision solution is a fixed solution, it does not have runtime variability with regard to the scan patterns and views. Microvision simultaneously provides up to 3 different views. There could be 1 view, 2 views, or 3 views, but those will be predetermined and fixed and their FOVs will also be static. Other vendors solutions may or may not be variable during runtime. For instance, Aeye touts their software definability. However, that too may be fixed during runtime and not variable on the fly. The good news here, at least according to Omer, is that the OEMs will not allow variable behavior from the LiDAR on the fly. My thinking was the competition could perhaps use this type of capability to help solve the resolution at range problem. But it appears that type of solution is verboten by the OEMs. Again, from my point-of-view this is good news for Microvision!
Could Innoviz switch to a 1550nm laser if they became economical? Yes. However, Omer believes that Innoviz is currently outperforming the 1550nm solutions today. In addition, they are concerned about the 1550nm wavelength damaging cameras. He referenced something published by Sony in the past few weeks which referenced this type of camera damage. EDIT: I could not find any recent article about Sony referencing 1550nm LiDAR damaging cameras. However, there are some articles from 2019 and 2021 on this topic.
There was a question about penetrating the China market. He said they tried this with InnovizOne a few years ago, but could not overcome the pricing issue with the local LiDAR suppliers. They now have InnovizTwo, and they believe they will be competitive in China with that product.
There was a question about one of their competitors being the preferred supplier for Nvidia. Omer acknowledged that Hyperion 8.1 does use a competitor product as the baseline LiDAR. He referenced that fact that Hyperion 9 is coming, and he feels as though InnovizTwo will be competitive as a candidate for that platform. Luminar is the competitor on the Hyperion 8.1 platform.
Innoviz has OEM "Design" wins working with 2 of the 3 computing platforms. I think the 3 platforms are Nvidia, Qualcomm, and NXP. I am not sure which ones Innoviz' OEM customers are using. It is interesting that he said "Design" wins here, rather than "Production Series" wins. Interesting only in that I am not sure what defines each category. EDIT: Per my earlier edit, a Design Win is the same as a Series Production win.
A question was asked about the 1280 channels in the Innoviz360 or something to that affect. Omer said that Innoviz360 is based upon a single laser and single detector. They are excited about this product and are expecting to receive their first RFQ from a truck company soon.
OEMs are keen to work with Innoviz as a Tier 1. It facilitates better overall communication and they are not paying double margins. Innoviz designs the production process. They can freely move between contract manufacturers if needed.
A question was asked about their 2023 revenue target, as to why it was lower than expected. Omer said their targets were based upon already committed deals including NREs. Any new deals would be additive to their targets and the revenue targets would increase accordingly. NREs are the meaningful element to revenue targets. Each OEM win would be a minimum of $10M in NRE revenue. He said their revenue for 2023 will consist of NRE, sample sales, and production sales. EDIT: The revenue categories are NRE and samples associated with a Design win, non-automotive sales, and automotive production sales.
In conjunction with an RFQ process (I believe), Omer said they have recently passed a financial audit directed by an OEM. This bodes well for them winning the nomination. I would agree. I would not think a financial audit would occur with all of the RFQ vendors, but only the 1 (or possibly 2) who were in the running for the award. EDIT: Yes, Omer said the audit was in conjunction with a current RFQ process.
Omer said that the non-automotive customers, which may not have large volumes, will benefit from the automotive volumes regarding price. EDIT: Actually, it was Tali that said this.
They were asked a question about the current Israeli government regime and how that may affect their business. Omer does not think there is a problem with the current regime. Some other companies have been talking about leaving Israel. Innoviz is not contemplating that.
How important is it to have a slim LiDAR for roofline placement? Tali answered this. If they can have a slim LiDAR they will. However, they are not sure there is a demand for this yet. I don't think they answered this question well. She actually said if they are able to make a slim LiDAR, then they will. Huh? I took her answer to be something like, "If I am able to fly like Superman, then I will." Perhaps I misinterpreted her answer. EDIT: I definitely need to provide some slack here as english is not either Omer or Tali's first language. She didn't phrase it well, but she did mean to say that if the requirement was for a slimmer LiDAR to enable behind the windshield or roofline integration they could do that. Just to reiterate though, they are saying they are not seeing that as a requirement from the OEMs.
Is windshield integration important? Omer answered that the big risk is the tight integration with the windshield and that special windshields are required. He also said that the linkage with LiDAR and the windshield becomes an insurance problem. Windshield replacement is fairly common, and this is generally covered by insurance. Having a LiDAR associated with a windshield would increase the replacement cost and thereby increase the insurance. I am not sure if he was meaning the LiDAR unit itself would need to be replaced (which does not make sense to me) or that the calibration for the new windshield would increase the cost. He did say calibration at one point. I am not sure how real this is. If there is an IR notch in the windshield, I would think the LiDAR unit would not need to be recalibrated for a new windshield with the same IR notch. If there are other levels of calibration required, I would hope the LiDAR unit would self-calibrate.
Are there any technologies out there that could make LiDAR obsolete? He said that he didn't know of any. He went on to say that a BMW executive told him that by adding a LiDAR the other sensors become redundant. However, they still would need other sensors for redundancy. But then he did make the case that the other sensors (cameras and radars) may not be needed in the future. He also said that OEMs would most likely shut down the ADAS system if the weather conditions were poor. I am not sure if this was an attempt to echo Sumit's comments around total cost of ownership with sensor reduction. If it was, it was kind of weak. In addition, there was no talk of sensor fusion throughout the entire AMA. In fact, they almost seem to argue that sensor fusion will not be required. That the LiDAR sensor will eventually win out. Anyway, either they believe the LiDAR sensor replaces other sensors, or they don't think sensor fusion is important, or they are keeping their own future plans under wraps.
There was some discussion about something called MRM. MRM is currently based on cameras, and Omer thought this function would move to LiDAR in the future. Full disclosure: I don't know what MRM is. EDIT: MRM stands for Minimum Risk Maneuvers. From the way Omer described it, it is when the ECU fails. For Level 3, the idea is that some subsystem will be able to drive the car for a small amount of time until the human driver can take over. Currently, the main sensor for this is the camera, but Omer says this may be changing from Camera to LiDAR.
Omer shared some thoughts regarding AVR being a driver for 3D becoming ubiquitous in the world. He was alluding to future potential capabilities of the Innoviz LiDAR technology. However, he reiterated that the window is closing for the automotive OEM LiDAR market and that is where they are focused today. Hmm. Sounds very similar to Sumit and Microvision, who actually have technology that supports the AR market now.

2023.04.19 01:31 stlatos Hungarian szëmérëm from Iranian *ǝvsarǝma-

It seems that Hungarian szëmérëm is a loan from Iranian *ǝvsarǝma- ‘shame/genitals’. Known cognates include Indo-European:
*ǝbhk^ar-mo- > Av. fšarǝma-, MP šarm, Os. ëfsarm, R. sórom ‘shame/disgrace’, OE hearm ‘distress/pain/damage/pity’
which seem to come from a very odd root, which could be:
*ǝbhk^ar- > *ǝk^bhar- > Rom. azbal- \ azbad- \ azbav- ‘hurt’, *ǝbhk^ar- > *k^arbh- > Skt. śárb(h)ati \ śárvati ‘hurt/hit/kil’
These Rom. words preserving a cluster not found in Skt. is part of the reason they should not be classified as Indic https://www.reddit.com/usestlatos/comments/11r4n6t/dardic_languages_romani_domari_domaaki/ .

Hn. szëmérëm resembles Os. ëfsarm most closely (and this is the source of a few other loans), but why would f > m happen? Other Hn. words show m > v after a vowel, and cognates show that v existed in Os. with vs > fs later, and the opposite v > m might come from an Iranian change seen in Pashto https://www.reddit.com/Pashtun/comments/128a24x/pashto_m_entries_by_georg_morgenstierne/ . Thus, Hn. szëmérëm would be evidence for a language or a stage of one no longer seen in native Iranian words (like H. imád ‘pray’ showing the older meaning of Av. miyazda- ‘sacrificial meal’ and preserving *miy- not later m- in Ahura- Mazda- https://www.reddit.com/usestlatos/comments/12282lq/uralic_languages_and_pie/ ). The metathesis of miy- > yim- and ëms- > sëm- might be Iranian or the result of the loans adapting odd clusters. This might indicate that Scythian changed v > m and th > l by s, maybe unlikely Os. ( https://www.reddit.com/mythology/comments/12q4r0e/oneeyed_birdhaters_vs_iranian_horselovers/ ). The change of vz > mz in Ps. was supported by Georg Morgenstierne and I have added more data:
*pk^ten- ‘comb’ > Latin pecten, Greek *ktens > kteís, *ǝfsṣan- > *vẓan-čī > Ps. ẓmanj
Skt. vyāghrá- ‘tiger’, *vyārágh- > *vzārágh- > *mzāráγ > Ps. mzarai
L. viēre ‘bend/plait/weave’, Skt. vyayati, OCS viti ‘wind/twist’, Ps. *vyay- > mazai ‘twist/thread’, Waz. mǝzzai ‘thread/cord / twisted/turned’
Av. xšudra- ‘fluid’, xšaōdah- ‘stream/current’, *xšavðā- > Ps. šómle ‘buttermilk’
*ǝbhk^ar-mo- > *ǝvsarǝma- > *ǝmsarǝma- > Hn. szëmérëm

Morgenstierne relating xšaōdah- & šómle seems to support this v > m before some fricatives, which requires that w > v was old (even for Vw > Vv). This is seen in https://www.reddit.com/etymology/comments/10a9qpf/etymology_of_daphne_laura/ and for Skt. lohá-s ‘reddish metal’, *rovðya- > MP rōy ‘coppebrass’, >> Arm. aroyr, Dk. riíl but *arovri > *orvari > Georgian rvali. This v > m is seen outside of Iran. in *ploudh(y)o- > MIr. luaide ‘lead’ >> Dutch loot, OE léad, E. lead; *plovðo- > L. plumbum ‘lead’ https://www.reddit.com/etymology/comments/zzdwfp/latin_plumbum_lead/ .

2023.04.03 18:38 Reverend-Cleophus Vintage VW Service Recommendations Needed

Hi all—Does anyone have a recommendation for a shop that services and/or restores vintage VW vans?
Context:
I own a 1989 VW Vanagon and owned it for about 5 years. While I’m pretty handy with basic maintenance and repair, I need the hand of a skilled mechanic who knows older model VWs to do some more critical restroative items/repairs. Over the years, finding a mechanic who is close to ATL (within ~50 miles) and more importantly willing to work on these old rigs has been the toughest part about owning the van.if this was anywhere west of Colorado, or even a little more north, like near Asheville, this wouldn’t be an issue. So far I’ve found 1 mechanic in Dunwoody (MVP German Automotive) who has agreed in the past to work on it, but given its age, part availability, and time it takes up in their shop, I’d like to find another shop who, ideally, specializes in these old gals. It seems that something close to town is just not an option.
Thanks in advance!
Additional info: I’ve searched common van message boards like VanAgain.org (most shops are either closed, out of date, or specialize in air cooled), the Samba, VanAlert, etc.

2023.03.31 00:32 dmit0820 CompPilotAI - working document

This is a working document that will record the current progress of CompPilotAI, a system that allows a large language model to take direct control of a computer to complete a specified task. Users will be able to use it to help with research, troubleshooting, software deveopment, and much more.
The goal is to send a large language model(LLM) such as GPT-4 a neatly formatted text document outlining everything currently on the screen including visible text, currently open programs, and the coordinates of buttons, and the LLM will output X and Y mouse coordinates, mouse clicks, and keyboard commands in order to complete the specified goal.
Here's a high-level outline of how the program could be structured and developed:

Capture screen and extract relevant information.
Convert the information into a structured text format.
Send the text to a large language model.
Parse the LLM output to extract mouse and keyboard commands.
Execute the commands using a library or framework
Create a plan > action > reflection loop that repeats until the desired task or action is complete

This code appears to be part of a script that performs several steps of the UI Element Detection (UIED) process. The is_ip, is_clf, is_ocr, and is_merge variables control which steps of the process are performed.
If is_ocr is True, the script performs OCR on the input image using the text_detection function from the detect_text.text_detection module. The OCR results are saved to the output_root/ocr directory.
If is_ip is True, the script performs image processing to detect UI components using the compo_detection function from the detect_compo.ip_region_proposal module. If is_clf is also True, a CNN classifier is used to classify the detected components. The component detection results are saved to the output_root/ip directory.
If is_merge is True, the script merges the OCR and component detection results using the merge function from the detect_merge.merge module. The merged results are saved to the output_root/merge directory.
Is there something specific you would like to know about this code?

2023.03.30 18:12 TheSlyGoose What is the legality for the ranger raptor as a commercial vehicle?

Hi all.
Bit less life and death than the usual posts here...
I'm looking at getting a 2023 ranger raptor in the next year (when you can pick them up second hand) and wanted to know if its possible to put it through my business? From my research and understanding it needs to be able to carry 1 ton to be classified as a lightweight commercial vehicle, which the raptor cannot. But a vw caddy load maxes out at 700kg but is obviously a commercial vehicle? What am I missing?
