Always had a suspicion, but its nice to know that you can just generally assume the worst about a technology these days.

How is it legal to drive a car with like 150ms of latency minimum? That's impaired driving on a completely different level.

Everything's legal when a corpo does it.

They're not driving.

It's definitely not a 150ms minimum.

Depending on the technology used, latency could reasonably be below 50ms, even as low as about 20ms in the best case.

How would it be anything less then 150ms between LA and the Philippines? 150ms is already assuming pretty much perfect conditions.

Maybe it's just me interpreting 'latency' as being one-way.

[–] DasRav@hexbear.net 1 points 19 hours ago

That would make sens.e You have to factor in round-trip time because if the car sends video at 75ms to someone, even if they instantly react with zero delay, their reaction now has to travel back the same 60ms of time/distance before the car can act on it.
