The list should have been most influential computer tech TBH, not just tech. TH is a computer enthusiast site after all and not an overall tech site. Thats why the majority of reviews and stories focus on PC technology and news and not all tech. Thats more Toms Guide.How does the Tesla Model S or Model 3 not make this list? They showed that not only are long range electric cars are viable for mass production. Also that they are safe, long lasting, fast and consumers are willing to pay for them. As they butchered luxury car sales. Now most of the major car manufacturers are jumping on the bandwagon. This is also pushing the rush to electrify bikes, motorcycles and dirt bikes.
Speaking of which. Electric scooters have also had a major impact on the world far beyond many of the items in this list. Also fueling the rush for more electric products.
AI is making advancements in scientific research, productivity, transport and advertising. Although I can't name off hand a single most influential advancement for AI this decade.
CRISPR is revolutionizing medical research.
The Falcon 9 put the viability of commercial space travel front and center when it landed. By illustrating that costs can be greatly reduced.
Some solar/battery product should also be on the list. As there is big shift occurring in energy production and storage. I'd say Molten Salt Reactor or WAMSR. But those are mostly on the drawing board. They'll probably have a big influence over the 2020's or 2030's.
While many of the items in the list are cool. The list seems mostly geek/gamer centric. Not tech products that have had the greatest influence over the 2010s. The iPad, SSD, GPU, multi-core CPU and Macbook definitely belong there. Although I'd say something like the Samsung Galaxy outshines the iPhone 4 for influence. As it showed people wanted big phones not tiny screens. Undoubtedly the iPhone has been a big influence. iOS itself is the big influencer not the phone.

Well if you really want to go back to where it started, the Tesla Roadster was the first electric car that showed that it really could be done.How does the Tesla Model S or Model 3 not make this list?

Movies are recorded video with a soundtrack, games are drawn in real time.IMO Gsync and Freesync are theft. Cards manufacturer put them in monitor instead on the GPU just to take more money from us.
They can easily make it on card and the output to monitor just like a stream , full screen frame by frame.
did you ever watch a TV 4K movie that stutters ?
they can make it the same way.
I thought about the Roadster. But very few units were produced. As far as influence goes I'd say it goes with the Model S or Model 3 as that's what finally caught the attention of global automakers. If it just stopped with the Roadster. The upcoming electric car options would probably still be only those tiny cars with a 40 to 80 mile range.Well if you really want to go back to where it started, the Tesla Roadster was the first electric car that showed that it really could be done.
And yeah as annoying as Bird Scooters are, they definitely are changing the future of transportation as we know it, and they can be accessed via an app on your phone.
Exactly ! and Their real time drawing is BROKEN by design! it is not the monitor problem it is their problem.Movies are recorded video with a soundtrack, games are drawn in real time.
Ah yes, the environmentally friendly Tesla. Built on billions of dollars in Tax Payer subsidies, allows for less reliance on fossil fuels by using lithium that is mined in africa, and asia by slave labor, and ruining millions of acres of habitats and causing irreversible environmental damage. Not to mention the billions of tons of lithium cells that will sit in landfills in the next 20 years because lawsuits against 3rd parties that attempt to refurbish the batteries. Don't bother with a rebuttal that we have recycling programs in the US, because once the cost outweigh the benefits, the US and Canada are more than willing to ship their waste off to Southeast Asia for "recycling."How does the Tesla Model S or Model 3 not make this list?

Yeah the thing is though, we wouldn't have the Model S and the Model 3 without the Roadster, and we wouldn't have a lot of the current EV tech without it. I'm really interested to see what EVs are capable of. I'm about due for a new car next year and I really want to get an EV. The Ford Mustang Mach E is looking like a winner in that department. I wouldn't mind a Model 3 either if I could afford one.I thought about the Roadster. But very few units were produced.

If they're counting the Nintendo Switch as tech, then they can certainly count car tech. There's some pretty impressive car tech out there right now and it's not just limited to EVs (check out Mercedes, Subaru, Hyundai, and Honda among others). I would think we could incorporate Apple Carplay and Android Auto into the mix as being some of the most innovative tech products of the decade.Err...... you sure you are in the right website???
Tomshardware is a computer related website. So, whats litsted here obviously is about computers and related stuff. Its not about cars, or medical or rockets.......
Autopilot is the correct term. By your quoted definition it is the correct term, it self steers.I want to like Tesla and I appreciate all of the new tech Elon Musk has brought to the world.
But naming your automatic driving system autopilot, but then saying you must be attentive at all times sends mixed messages.
The literal definition of autopilot is "a device that steers a ship, plane, or spacecraft by itself, without a person."
I am highly curious to find out if Tesla's autopilot is more advanced than a 747's navigational computer.Autopilot is the correct term. By your quoted definition it is the correct term, it self steers.
Its the same as an airplane, with its autopilot. An airplanes autopilot requires an attentive pilot. The same with a ship, its autopilot requires an attentive helms person.
A plane can 'lane keep' with auto pilot, and 'park'(land/takeoff, sometimes) with auto pilot, but it is not self-flying, it cant handle many situations.
A ship can 'lane keep' with auto pilot, but cant handle many situations.
A tesla can 'lane keep' with auto pilot, and park with auto park(sometimes), but its not self-driving, it cant handle many situations.
The biggest difference between a plane/boat and a car is there is a lot less to hit. The lanes are virtual, they don't twist and turn all over the place, and there are multiple orders of magnitude less vehicles to hit in a boat/plane.
Tesla's auto pilot is far more advanced then a plane/boat. But its no where near self driving. If they called it self driving, i would have a big problem with it, because its not(in its current form, maybe someday).
I have no personal experience with Tesla auto pilot. But me personally i either want full self driving, so i can go to sleep in a car and wake up somewhere else with no human intervention, or i don't want it at all. Auto pilot has no value to me, if i have to watch over it, id rather just drive.
Just wanted to say, you have no idea what Gsync and Freesync do if you compare it to a movie.IMO Gsync and Freesync are theft. Cards manufacturer put them in monitor instead on the GPU just to take more money from us.
They can easily make it on card and the output to monitor just like a stream , full screen frame by frame.
did you ever watch a TV 4K movie that stutters ?

I think USB C is great - it will be the standard for a long time. The biggest difference can be seen lately, I was search data on my usb drives for something. I gone though a lot of different drives and what a pain it is with all those confusing drives - some of which do not work. USB 1, 2, 3 and micro and mini connectors.I don't think USB C rates the list. It has still not made it's impact.
