There's always going to be a computer in it to drive it. It's just a matter of how generalised it is and how much weight/power consumption it's adding.

Yeah exactly. With realtime, a dropped packet is often too old by the time it's re-transmitted. It's actually harmful to wait for it when you'd rather just skip it and move on and stay as close to realtime as possible. It's a very different usecase from most uses.

I do wish QUIC allowed carrying streams that were useful for realtime in conjunction with allowing reliable streams. Using MPEG-TS over SRT to have it just spam metadata to handle the unreliableness is janky. It would be far nicer to have a reliable stream for metadata, then an unreliable one for realtime streaming.

A one-off consultation prior to his road racing career to see if he the right kind of fitness for road. I don't think the association should be used to tarnish Cadel without further evidence.

That seems like it would end up with police being incentivised to turn a blind eye to those who can afford expensive lawyers more than they already do?
