If they would use lidar you would get speed and distance from surrounding objects, which seems like valuable data for a moving object. With cameras you get a 2d picture that can only guestimate distance using multiple cameras and software.

I think the selling point is that it is less distracting because the black and white eink display does not support videos or social media doom scrolling.

Windows for home consumers/home PCs hopefully.

Bro, do you really want to ruin tech bros because they would suddenly have to PAY for the data they use? Mark and Jeff would have to sell some of their yachts and Private jets to afford paying fair prices for AI data!

Running a business sounds like something an Excel table could do so much better…

No records, no problem!

Lemmings for Amiga had a 2player split screen mode. Goal is to guide the most lemmings (yours and the other players) into your exit.

There is a browser plugin “YouTube enhancer” that lets you disable shorts, comments, recommended videos and other crap.

A 2013 Nissan leaf is worth less than 1500 euros, because it’s 12 years old, the battery has 80km range left on a good day and newer models have better range and features.

Which American companies actually manufacture displays, ram, CPUs, batteries etc. for cellphones in America?

The preferred term is “vibe coding” nowadays!

I look forward to learning more about how terrible these phones turn out.

It will be a bog standard white label china phone with android, a custom wallpaper and maybe some cover/protector like you can get on temu. It’s not like they develop their own hardware configuration, apps or phone os.

Afaik the meds they need to produce their products are more easily available over the counter in Poland than other EU countries.

I guess Putin is betting on winning this war, so he can add Ukraine to Russias population and replace all the lost manpower.

But the price difference is not so extreme that people would scrap their petrol car for an new 20000 Euro or more EV overnight. It’s only important for people who drive a lot.

German car makes rely on exports, and a lot of other countries are much more electric car friendly, or will ban the sale of petrol cars soon. They are already late to the EV market; if they delay till 2040 then they wont be able to sell any cars overseas anymore and will have to close factories.

The reason steam engines went went away was because of economics. Electric motors where more powerful, more efficient, fewer moving parts and less maintenance, can power up instantly and don’t need to heat up a boiler for an hour before it’s ready - so in short cheaper to run.

The problem I see with EVs in germany is that electricity costs are already high, and with extra fees on fast charging the price advantage is not there compared to petrol - at least not if you rely on public charging and don’t have a solar roof at home.

Vodka and cigarettes is my guess.

The same people who show German flags on their clothes or social media profile pictures usually show up when there is some right wing protest, or next to some racist online comments, so it’s no longer a flag but more like the maga hat. It also serves as a sign so guys with small dicks can find each other.

AI stands for “actually indians”?
