Ist halt eine Partei mit autoritärer, nationalistischer und xenophobischer Ideologie, dazu natürlich reichlich Geschwurbel, um diesen Unsinn zu unterstützen. Das gab und gibt es auch reichlich im linksextremen Spektrum, auch wenn es öfter mit Rechtsextremen assoziiert wird.

The difference is that these companies have to adhere to EU regulations, e.g. on harmful chemicals. Cheap Chinese products famously do not, often times to an absurd degree, exceeding limits by thousands of times.

They recently added the ability to pay with an EC card upon delivery.

Good ol' moving the overton window.

The more unstable the world becomes, the more frequent and aggressive moves towards authoritarianism will be.

Polestar doesn't do cheap EVs. Their cars are far too powerful and sophisticated for this. You can't exactly take out features that customers in this segment are expecting.

Look into the upcoming Slate truck, which is set to be one of the cheapest EVs in the US. It doesn't even come with an infotainment system by default - just a holder for your smartphone. If you want, you can access advanced vehicle functions via an app, but you don't have to.

Better education, more measures against fake news and propaganda. Some nations (like, as per usual, the Nordics) are working hard on this, including even with providing courses for adults on how to spot fake news (as well as incorporating it into the general curriculum), but most are complacent at best, far too slow at adapting to rapidly changing times.

This reminds me that Epic, unlike Steam, allows crypto games on their store. For a while, it was being absolutely flooded with crypto shovelware, drowning out more worthwhile titles. It was one of several reasons why I stopped using the store for anything but the weekly free games.

In other words: Sweeney is wrong once again and it's not doing him and his money pit of a store any favors.

Sie müssen nur einmal Erfolg damit haben. Bürgerrechtler hingegen müssen immer und immer wieder dagegen angehen.

Es ist definitiv ermüdend.

Yeah, the UK adopted 1984 as an instruction manual ages ago. I last visited it almost 20 years ago, but even then, the level of public surveillance alone was just ridiculous.

Microsoft has been quite transparent about the fact that the Series S can only do 4K with upscaling:

The primary difference between the two consoles is that the XBOX Series X displays games in native 4K, is available with a UHD Blu-ray Disc player, and you can choose between 1TB SSD or 2TB SSD. XBOX Series S is designed for disc-free gaming at 1440p (with the ability to upscale to 4K) and you can choose between 512GB SSD or 1TB SSD.

One might argue that even the Series X upscaled to 4K more often than not, but still. It can actually render a number of games at native 4K, just like its predecessor. Interestingly, the Series S GPU is weaker than the one used by the One X, albeit more modern, which impacts backwards compatibility, limiting it to One S resolutions and performance with Xbox One, 360 and OG titles.

It's not like the Chinese are any better. I want both sides to lose.

 

Mit ihrem Verhalten im Bundestag hat die Union einen demokratischen Tabubruch begangen. Falsch sind nicht nur die teils rechtswidrigen Forderungen, falsch ist auch die entmenschlichende Sprache von Parteichef Merz.

 

A surprisingly interesting video that taught me some new things about the NES and this era of gaming. Highly recommended!
