Temperature changing rubber pushing studs outwards that add grip as the tire cools, absolutely brilliant if the outer layers haven't been softened so far as to make the tire life impractical.
Upsides
- significant reduction in slide and sudden stop accidents
- significant drop in hydroplane events due to poor maintenance (the ride will be awful once the studs are exposed)
- possibly longer tire life
- incredible off road potential
- reduction in price of conventional full rubber tire
Downsides
- Increased road maintenance
- possibly decreased tire life
- increased pedestrian, consequential,and head on collision damage due to increased traction
- Decreased ride comfort as mass production will inevitably lead to increased tolerances
- which will also increase / complicate balance weighting which limits top speed rating
I dunno, previous generation Hakka tires were a revolution that has since been duplicated by other brands. Studless snows are really good, retractable studs can only add so much.
I mean...it works just fine without internet...host your own registry...or just build your own from Dockerfiles locally. Not saying it is the right use case for everything but I'm confused what you mean by docker doesn't work without the internet. Neither does pip, rubygems, apt, etc...unless you build locally or host your own repository. Can you elaborate on what exactly you mean because you probably have a point that I am just missing.
