Short description David Brown and Paul Murrell explore the forces reshaping the automotive world, from Porsche's restructuring and Honda's compact electric city car to Hyundai's 40-year journey in Australia. They celebrate engineering heritage, review the Bentley Continental GTC plug-in hybrid and the Mazda MX-5 RF, and examine how open-source software is changing in-car technology. Along the way, they reflect on classic cars, transport planning, vehicle design and why driving enjoyment still matters as the industry evolves. Episode Breakdown • Porsche restructures and EV reality — 00:01:23 • Honda's compact electric city car — 00:08:07 • Preserving engineering heritage — 00:17:42 • Hyundai marks 40 years in Australia — 00:27:06 • Bentley Continental GTC review — 00:32:34 • Motoring memories and classics — 00:38:21 • Android Open Source Project in cars — 00:42:08 • Mazda MX-5 RF road test — 00:55:10 Full summary Porsche restructures and EV reality Porsche's planned workforce reductions prompt discussion about changing global demand, slowing EV uptake and the importance of balancing electric, hybrid and petrol models. The conversation also explores premium pricing, tariffs and why iconic models such as the 911 continue to underpin the brand. Honda's compact electric city car Honda's new small electric hatch sparks a broader look at Japan's kei car heritage, urban mobility and practical vehicle sizing. David and Paul argue that compact cars could ease congestion, improve parking efficiency and better match everyday driving needs. Preserving engineering heritage Recognition for long-time Pyrmont Bridge custodian David Glasson leads to a discussion about maintaining historic infrastructure and passing specialist engineering skills to future generations. The pair draw parallels with classic car restoration and the value of keeping mechanical knowledge alive. Hyundai marks 40 years in Australia Hyundai's evolution from budget newcomer to mainstream leader highlights changing perceptions of Korean vehicles. The discussion covers drive-away pricing, longer warranties and the brand's role in reshaping Australian consumer expectations. Bentley Continental GTC review Paul reviews Bentley's plug-in hybrid convertible, praising its refinement, effortless performance and exceptional comfort. Despite its extraordinary engineering and luxury, the high purchase price and ownership practicality remain part of the conversation. Motoring memories and classics Stories from Cars and Coffee gatherings, historic Chargers, Minis and other classics celebrate Australia's motoring culture. The segment reflects on how enthusiast communities preserve automotive history through shared experiences and restoration. Android Open Source Project in cars Alan Zervis explains how Android Open Source Project underpins many modern vehicle infotainment systems while remaining separate from Android Auto. The discussion examines software-defined vehicles, over-the-air updates, interface design and why intuitive controls remain essential for safe driving. Mazda MX-5 RF road test David Brown and Paul Murrell celebrate the enduring appeal of the Mazda MX-5 RF, using The Unbearable Lightness of Being as a metaphor for the car's lightweight philosophy. They praise its 1,100kg kerb weight, six-speed manual gearbox, naturally aspirated engine and retractable fastback roof, arguing that involvement, balance and driver engagement matter more than outright speed. The discussion explores how the MX-5 has remained true to its original concept since 1989, becoming the world's best-selling two-seat sports car while resisting the trend towards heavier, more powerful vehicles. They conclude that its modest performance is usable in everyday driving, making it one of the most rewarding sports cars on Australian roads.

L'entreprise française Lynx Mixed Reality présente, ce 21 janvier à San Francisco, son nouveau casque de réalité virtuelle. Destiné au marché professionnel, il s'agit du seul produit européen de ce type, concurrent des équipements américains et asiatiques. Interview : Stan Larroque, fondateur et dirigeant de Lynx Mixed RealityPunchlinesLynx est le seul casque autonome européen.Le champ de vision le plus large jamais vu sur un casque sans fil.La réalité mixte fonctionne d'abord dans le monde professionnel.La valeur se joue avant tout sur le logiciel.Vous présentez un nouveau casque de réalité mixte. Qu'est-ce qui le distingue techniquement ?On a entièrement revu le cœur du casque, avec une nouvelle optique et la puce Qualcomm XR2 Gen 2. Cela double quasiment la puissance graphique et augmente fortement les capacités de calcul dédiées à la vision par ordinateur et à l'IA. On a aussi 80 % de pixels en plus, ce qui améliore nettement la netteté, la réactivité et réduit la latence. Le champ de vue atteint 126 degrés horizontaux, ce qui est inédit pour un casque sans fil et change radicalement la sensation d'immersion.Vous êtes souvent comparés à l'Apple Vision Pro. Comment se situe Lynx face à ce produit ?Le Vision Pro est en 4K par œil, nous sommes en 2.5K. Notre écran coûte dix fois moins cher à produire. Cela permet de proposer un casque autour de 1200 euros, beaucoup plus accessible, tout en offrant plus de réactivité et moins de latence. D'un point de vue performance pure, c'est une vraie amélioration pour l'utilisateur sur de nombreux usages.À quels usages ce casque est-il destiné en priorité ?Il est clairement pensé pour le monde professionnel. Les usages qui fonctionnent aujourd'hui sont la formation et l'assistance à distance dans la défense, le médical et l'industrie. Pour nous, la formation, c'est du jeu vidéo sérieux : des environnements immersifs pour former des techniciens, des chirurgiens ou des opérateurs. C'est là que le marché existe réellement aujourd'hui.Comment une startup française peut-elle rivaliser avec Meta ou Apple ?Chez Lynx, nous allons vite, avec une vision claire. Notre casque n'est pas au rabais : sur certaines spécifications, il est même en avance. On est aussi souverains sur le logiciel, avec un système d'exploitation open source basé sur Android Open Source Project. Cela nous permet d'ouvrir entièrement le code à nos clients, ce qui est impossible avec les GAFAM. Aujourd'hui, être comparés à Apple ou Meta dans certaines analyses internationales, c'est déjà une victoire.Site Web : https://www.lynx-r.com-----------♥️ Soutien : https://mondenumerique.info/don

Andy's joined by a special guest this week: Jason Howell, host of All About Android on the This Week In Tech network. We replay the last episode of the first season of “Frasier” before digging into a new rash of civil lawsuits that content creators have filed against Google and other makers of AI language models. And then we talk phones: the Fair, the Nothing, and reviving Andy's Pixel 1 by installing one of the mobile OSes birthed by the Android Open Source Project.

Android - это операционка, которая работает не только на целом зоопарке мобильных устройств и планшетов, есть еще Android TV, Android Wear, Android Things и Android Auto (правда, Wear почти не развивается, а про Things все начали потихоньку забывать), но не все знают, что есть еще Android Automotive, который устанавливается прямо в хед-юнит автомобиля! Вот именно о нем и решили поговорить ведущие на этот раз, позвав в гости Федора Цымбала, CTO компании MERA и специалиста в платформенной разработке под Android. Постойте-постойте, какого хрена? Есть ведь уже Android Auto, почему два разных андроида для автомобилей? Этот вопрос ведущие задают Федору одним из первых, ну, а потом, еще кучу других интересных вопросов: какой нужен тулкит для Automotive, можно ли уже писать приложения и какие есть для них ограничения, есть ли у Apple какой-то аналог (под шумок прогнозируя, когда же ребята из Купертино запилят iCar), можно ли запустить, аппку написанную на Flutter (причем как бы это ни было странно, про Flutter спрашивает Данис, а вовсе не Александр

Join the Acquired Limited Partner program! https://kimberlite.fm/acquired/ (works best on mobile) Ben & David examine Google’s 2005 purchase of Android for a rumored $50M, undeniably one of the best technology acquisitions of all time. But will it top the list of these tough graders? Tune in to find out. Topics covered include: Welcome new listeners! We quickly review the show format for newbies. Community spotlight: Patagonia on a Budget from community member Matt Morgante (@mattm on Slack) Andy Rubin’s career trajectory and what made him “born to start Android" The undeniable “cool factor” of the Danger Sidekick in the early/mid-2000’s, including fans such as Larry Page, Sergey Brin and… Turtle from Entourage Android’s original ambition to build an operating system for… digital cameras WebTV founder Steve Perlman is pretty much the best friend ever Google’s own perspective on Android as their “best deal ever" The Android team’s reaction to Steve Jobs unveiling the iPhone in January 2007, and redesigning the initial launch hardware Announcing Android and—equally importantly—the Open Handset Alliance (“OHA”) The much-talked-about "mobile holy wars", between Android’s “open” platform and Apple’s “closed” platform The less-talked-about US carrier wars with the iPhone + AT&T in one camp, and everyone else in the Google / OHA camp (including “Droid Does”) A quirk of history: HTC at one point acquires a majority share in Beats, resulting a short-lived period of Beats-branded Android phones (still available on Amazon!) The real battleground for Google in the mobile platform wars: the economics of “default search” (briefly known thanks to the Oracle/Java lawsuit against Google) Google’s detour into smartphone hardware with the acquisition (and subsequent divestiture) of Motorola The “fork-ability” of Android via the Android Open Source Project (versus “Google Android”), and the rise of Xiaomi, Cyanogen, Kindle Fire and other platforms The ecosystem economics of the Android business for Google “Defensive” versus “offensive” acquisitions, and protecting Google’s core search business Could (or would) Google have built an Android-like platform without acquiring Android the company (or having Andy Rubin)? Framing the technology world’s shift to mobile within (surprise) Ben Thompson’s Aggregation Theory The current “moving up the stack” of the competitive playing field as the mobile landscape matures Grading: Android versus Instagram? Followups: Waze launches Carpool in the Bay Area. Much consternation ensues on the Uber board. Hot Takes: The iPhone 7 (and AirPods) announcement The Carve Out: Ben: Business Adventures by John Brooks, Bill Gates’ favorite business book David: Ezra Edelman's fantastic 5-part ESPN documentary on O.J.
