This kind of spam is luckily pretty rare in europe, I get maybe one or two spam calls a year.

Probably not. It is still fun though

I don’t think the world needs more AI images about politicians.

I wonder if this explanation given in the article is true for France and other EU countries or some overly optimistic hope from desperate EV fans:

Despite the delivery debuts of the much anticipated Citroen e-C3, and Renault 5, the French BEV market is still significantly down in volume YoY, a deeply disappointing result. One suspects that manufacturers may already be starting to slow-pedal the delivery of BEV volumes for the remainder of 2024, in order to release those volumes in 2025, when EU regulations require tighter fleet average emissions to be met.

True. I really wonder why they’re not tackling the issue more. It seems that there are several different areas to adress, from farming to industry to vehicles.

The “more toxic than ever” part seems to be based on subjective opinions, not on data.

Of course, Waymo faces some likely competition from Tesla, which announced its self-driving Cybercab robotaxi at its We, Robot event. Tesla already offers a ride-hailing service for its Bay Area employees, but the company relies on safety drivers for now.

I might be wrong, but my impression is that Tesla is years behind Waymo as of now.

No cure has been found yet for factorio.

I’ve started Cyberpunk 2077 recently. Runs pretty flawlessly now with patch 2.x, I’m glad that I waited a few years

The article says that the influence on battery usage is low. But the higher resolution might result in a higher power draw.

That car looks … interesting.

Forever together. Because their hands are connected ;)

No USB power plug operates at 5 V when providing 65 Watts. That would be 13 Amps. Both power plugs most likey use 15 or 20 volts internally. 19 volts is not allowed over USB.

Edit: Here is a short summary of the USB-PD spec from Wikipedia

They’re well suited for commuting, but for larger distances, your’re out of luck if the battery is empty after an hour or so.

Fleet is an open source device management software. Calling it literal malware seems odd to me.

How would you manage hundeds or thousands of devices without Intune, SCCM, Ivanti, Ansible or whatever tool your org uses?

I would be more worried if the company had no means of controlling their devices, keeping them updated, secure and compliant.

When it comes to protect the rights of thw users, there are typically laws in place (at least where I live).

Thanks for the explanation, I tried it myself:

I think many electric motorcycles are pretty bad. 5 kwh battery and 4 hours charge time? Sounds like 2010 to me.

There are better models, but they’re quite expensive in comparison.

Thank you! I’ll publish one later today.

No, these trucks are actually useful.

When the neighbor looks like the one in the image, even five seconds is too much for me.
