Because of course people are always reasonable and back people and policies that are in their interest.
It seems like by and large there's support in Russia for the invasion in Ukraine. They might not be willing to go to full mobilisation, but if they don't have to die themselves they're fine with the invasion.
Do you propose that the Ukrainians should stop fighting and plead with the Russian people to overthrow Putin?
There's not that much choice there, it genuinely takes 2-3 years to implement hardware that is radically different from what you're currently doing.
Because they're making millions upon millions of phones, they need to really nail the design before they start mass production. And that's neither cheap nor fast.
The big manufacturers can probably afford to do this faster, but the smaller ones might struggle so you need to make it fair.
By 'those privacy laws' do you mean GDPR? Because that's caused Threads not to be released in the EU, and you'll notice that all your devices now have USB C. These regulations have had a pretty significant impact.
Actually, it looks like this time it might be true.
Next is speculation on my part, but I imagine people are turning conservative more based on their wealth than their age. We saw a correlation between age and conservative sentiment because people tended to gather wealth as they got older.
But that link has been progressively eroded, so people are no longer switching. Essentially the conservatives are killing the golden goose in their incessant pursuit of consolidating wealth.
Say you have your display, this is made up of millions of lights that on their own just light up in whatever single colour you want, but together they light up to create an image.
Your software takes care of breaking down that image of a cat you want to look at into its corresponding pixels - with a value for colour and brightness.
For example it'll say this area in the cat's eye is black, so it'll request the no light to come out of it. Another area might be a pale red so it'll request red with some middle level of brightness.
Now your firmware takes that requested black for a specific Pixel and it'll physically cut power to switch off all the lights in the required area. For the pale red it'll power that the red ligh ON with hald power, whilst green and blue are OFF.
(things get more complex once you consider back-lightning)
