Tesla has quietly updated its HW4 FSD computer hardware by removing non-essential components to reduce costs and simplify design, potentially leveraging learnings for its upcoming AI5 system. Meanwhile, Tesla has introduced a 500kW Supercharger with new V4 cabinets, offering incremental charging speed improvements and increased network efficiency, and faces regulatory pressure in China to redesign its iconic door handles for safety reasons, possibly moving away from its signature flush design.
A DIY project by The Eccentric Workshop redesigned an Arris cable modem for rack mounting by creating a custom 3D-printed case and light guide, making it more functional and aesthetically pleasing for network infrastructure setups.
DIY Perks successfully created a prototype of a portable PlayStation 5 by redesigning its cooling system and adding a 4K OLED panel, making it suitable for use on a countertop or in a backpack. However, due to its high power consumption, the device still requires an external power supply and outlet, limiting its true portability. The project highlights the demand for high-end portable gaming options and suggests that Sony could potentially shrink the PS5's form factor in the future.
