Nvidia is about 4.5 trillion, 15/4500 = 0.0033 But maybe you accounted for exchange rate, so it probably checks out.
So to put it another way, the total value of the worlds by far most valuable company, is equal to 238 Future Circular Colliders.
I think that actually demonstrates how expensive that collider is!

OK that's much much better. 👍

To me it sounds weird to "apply for an official online service". We have access to all public online services through the same login we use for banks and the official public digital mail service.
No matter if it's tax, health, prescription renewal, the bank or whatever, we login through the same login service, and every danish citizen automatically has access to all public services without applying and without delay.
Even people who are not citizens, like for instance exchange students are issued access to this system.

Goddam that looks ugly, and it seems to serve no purpose, as they are just put on the outside of the building.

They are planning a replacement for LHC:

The frontrunner is a colossal machine called the Future Circular Collider or FCC.

and:

starting in the late 2040s, would collide electrons into positrons, their anti-matter partners.

It's just a very very tiny experiment. 😋

The first phase will cost an estimated 15bn Swiss francs or £14bn.

Scientists love expensive toys, the smaller you want to go, the more expensive the equipment.
I hope this goes through, if we want to advance our understanding of the world, we need science to figure it out.

Fuck every American that voted for this. And fuck them twice when they claim they didn't, because they didn't think this would happen when voting for Trump. People were warned loud and clear, claiming ignorance is not a valid excuse.

You can still send letters as before, it's just another company handling them.

[–] Buffalox@lemmy.world 5 points 10 hours ago

We have an official digital service which provides all official letters and also has the ability to return them as legally signed.

Letter deliveries continue as always, it's just another company delivering the service.
The company taking over is already in the parcel and morning paper delivery service, and letters today are so few in Denmark, that they can probably take that up pretty easily.
Letters are so rare here that last year our household only received 3 letters, and 2 of them were small medical test kits, that would probably have been cheaper to send as parcels. So in reality I count it as only 1 letter, and the previous year I don't recall receiving a single letter!

Trump's Triumphal arch is a joke, it has no symbolism of any value, where for instance the French "Arc de triomphe de l'Étoile" has double significance as praising the success of the Napoleon army, and as a symbolic memorial place for the unknown soldier, and today it has become a historic landmark.

What Trump is doing is putting up a huge piece of garbage of no value and slab his own name on it.
It's a cheap copy of "the original" in Paris, both in concept and design. Much like a cheap Chinese copy of a Vuitton designer piece.
Trump has no style and no class, only someone completely without any sense of either could think such a project is cool.

Which is strange since Republicans usually love bible quotes.

Britons making sure the decline after losing the Empire, and later after Brexit continues.
Xenophobia and exceptionalism combined is probably the most direct route to decline of a civilization.
It's weird how USA and UK are messing up completely like they are dancing a weird dance of death together.

 

With little innovation and lacking new models, Tesla has decided to cut prices again, this time the price of the model 3 is cut by 10%.

This may be to regain some of the lost marketshare. But it may also be because they simply have too much stock.
Cutting production is expensive, and obviously producing just to stockpile unsold products is expensive too.

I have no doubt that this price cut is an act of desperation, not a result of being competitive. Tesla is losing money no matter if they cut production or they cut the prices or they stock up on unsold product.

Whichever is the case, I had a good laugh that the Swasticars are so hard to sell Tesla has to cut prices yet again, and that's despite inflation.

Allegedly the profitability on a Tesla car was recently estimated at just 2%, so cutting the price by 10% is going to hurt for them.

Here's a link to a story about it by a major news outlet in Denmark:

Anton Gerashchenko on Bluesky story about a strike at a nuclear plant with documentation:

The post contains video from the situation.

As I've been posting many times before, many workers in Russia are behind on payments. People working in factories being 3 months behind is not uncommon.
Anna from Ukraine explains the situation here. She is a good source IMO, because her English is excellent, and being Ukrainian she understands Russian, and makes frequent news updates about the Ukrainian war from various perspectives.

Anna Danylchuk:

Inside Russia on youtube was first to report on the Russian population beginning to have had enough to a degree they are actually beginning to complain:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EoR5_bJywWQ

I've claimed before I don't think Putin will last through the winter, and I see this as the first signs that the Russian people is about to have had enough.
The story reported by Anna and Gerashchenko tells that the workers are at least 2 months behind on wages, they were promised transportation to work, something that is important because of the lack of fuel, and public transport becoming unreliable. But they do not get the promised transportation. They were also promised 1 hot meal per day, but do not receive that either.
Finally in their homes, they are out of water and heat.

This is the economic and infrastructure collapse many have predicted was inevitable, that is now beginning to really show. And it isn't even really winter yet!

PS: The moderators removed my previous post with false accusations, so here it is posted again according to their demands.

FDM warns of errors in several models from Tesla, and FDM has now been successful by the Danish Road Safety Authority. FDM has previously described that there are several cases of significant veil in the rear suspension and in the steering column of the popular Model 3.

The Danish Road Safety Authority has stated that the motorists' interest organization, FDM, rightly did not approve two Tesla Model 3 by sight after the car owners had independently complained about the demand for omsyn.

FDM said in a statement.

In both cases, the sight results were due to "too much veil in bushings in rear-wheel suspension".

However, Tesla found no faults and thought the electric cars should have been approved, which led to complaints and the Traffic Agency's review. Many Teslas have "veil in the bushing"

The agency concludes that the cars had a significant veil and that the vision had been carried out correctly in both cases.

Earlier in the year, the FDM warned that there are many Teslas that have veils in bushings in the rear-wheel suspension and in the steering column. See also FDM comes with call for Tesla owners

Veils in rear suspensions mean that there is a looseness or abnormal movement in the parts that connect the car's rear wheel to the car itself.

This applies to both the Model 3 and Model Y. According to FDM, around 37,000 Model 3 and more than 40,000 Model Y have been registered in Denmark. The error is seen on newer cars

Usually you first see the problem on older cars, which have driven many kilometers, but FDM has seen several models with the error early in the life expectancy of the cars.

It creates doubts about the safety of cars, writes FDM, who has contacted Tesla to get the company to solve the problems. See also Tesla gets fined for flawed marketing

"We expect Tesla to help drivers, as it is not fair that the consumer has an additional cost of repair and possibly overhaul, because the car has a fault it shouldn't have," said Lone Otto, area manager in FDM's technical advice.

At the beginning of the year, FDM said that almost one in four Model 3 from the year 2020, which last year was for inspection, failed - among other things because of veils.

For other electric cars, the dump percentage was nine.

I'm stressing the European parts, because my post from yesterday about Russian losses in Ukraine war was removed as "off topic".
Despite this sub is about:
News and information from Europe 🇪🇺

 

Merz pointed out that the restrictions have been lifted not only on German weapons.

"There are no longer any restrictions on the range of weapons delivered to Ukraine, neither by the UK, France, nor us. There are no restrictions by the US either,"

 

Putin is getting more and more desperate. As he is running out of options, he is just increasing the meat waves!
