Well China did subsidize that industry massively, to a point were their domestic market is flooded with very low margins. So the market is already very distorted. But I find it hard to hate on that because flooding the market with electric vehicles and solar panels is better than anything economists are coming up with.
Don't worry too much. If the EU passes legislation for this, you'll likely benefit from it as well, similar to all the other pro consumer things spilling over.
Maybe. But to me exile is what happens when a King has to live in another plushy castle because he's no longer welcome in his own country. Deportation is what happened to the Jews and minorities that got sent to Auschwitz. And if you're calling it mass deportation I don't think you are trying to hide the cruelty anymore. Cruelty is the point.
This completely ignores the fact that the AfD is a key part of encouraging that sentiment. They get paid tax money to promote hate and undermine democracy. Millionaires get tax credit by funding them. Media is forced to give them space. All this ends when they're banned. Will the same people try again and again? Yes, but democracy is about fighting again and again for your rights.
Full disk encryption is non standard and a PITA without a secure boot chain where the disk can be unlocked by the OS itself. If you have fun tinkering with your OS go nuts, but I want something that works every time even if install it for my mom. The current distro offerings aren't that.
No. You can edit the Kernel command line directly from GRUB before booting into anything else. That is the default behavior (with Debian).
Yes, it is more aimed towards "casual" users that want something that just works. But auto-updating policy is not really the point of the blog. Every distro is deciding that by themselves and will always be able to.
The default GRUB setup basically provides no security, even with UEFI secure boot enabled. On my default Debian install I can just edit the Kernel command line and get root without any password required. But beyond that, check out design goal 2 in this article https://0pointer.net/blog/fitting-everything-together.html
If I didn't miss it, no wireless charging again... Some one told me they refuse to do it because it wastes electricity. To which I'd say, even just turning on a car probably uses magnitudes more energy than charging my phone wirelessly. I don't want to mess up the USB C port if I don't have to, thanks.
If you're interested in getting into it, download Ghidra and open an older program/game in it that you like. The decompiler is pretty amazing imo, so you rarely have to look at the assembly. But it also cross-references them so you can look at the decompiled C Code and the associated assembly. It's pretty fun 😊
The likelihood of getting 12 seasons (or more, not sure how many books they covered per season) was practically zero from the start. I wonder what those execs think when planning absurdly expensive fantasy series. Maybe customers don't care that much about cancellations.
Depends firstly what you are building. For a Node backend, it of course matters a lot. For a JS frontend you always only ship a fraction of the dependency code, so the meme doesn't really apply. Modern JS frameworks are alright as long as you know what you are doing 🙂
He is just coping because they fucked up establishing their own hosted solution. Companies are not buying advanced SaaS solutions that only hyper-scalers provide. For SAP they buy beefy VMs and S3 for backup. Both of these are available on any hoster.
Also energy prices are such a dumb argument not to build data centers in Europe. Where does he think aws-eu-west 1-3 get their energy from?
Can we not? Silicon Valley sucks and imo hasn't done anything innovative for a long time.
