  • EU drops 2035 combustion engine ban as global EV shift faces reset

    Jump

  • I wonder how plug-in hybrids are that bad in terms of gas-to-electric ratio. Might need a proper source on that. Most usage should be from work-home travel, and that should be reachable with just electric power.

    Maybe the solution is not simply to block hybrids, but to solve the reasons they don't drive electric. This could be putting more chargers at home/workplace or something else entirely (idk what the analysis pointed out as reason)

  • But have you considered that those assholes lobbied very hard to protect their interest? Shouldn't their money and time investment be rewarded?

  • This is why we can't have nice things.

  • To be fair, if most of your funding (source needed) comes from industrial customers, not supplying them is a good way to lose their patronage.

    So even if it sucked for hobbyists at that moment, keeping a big player like RbP viable for the long term might not be too bad of a tradeoff.

  • The while the US talks a big game, China plays a big game.

  • Same with power generation/grid. The EU is finally realising that if they want everyone to go electric they are massively fuckt in terms of clean electricity generation and power distribution. Meanwhile we had china's power grid as a case study in uni because it's way ahead of ours.

  • If WW3 breaks out, what countries are going to be on which side?

  • HDMI Forum is unwilling to disclose the 2.1 specification for open-source (Linux): according to AMD, they had submitted a functional, HDMI 2.1-compatible driver [for linux?], which the Forum rejected.

  • Except DisplayPort has high data transfer speed requirements and many cables that fit the nice reversible ports do not support it.

    Source: me testing every cable at home to find one that supports DP + PD

  • Zwarte Piet is 100% a slave with all the traditional symbolism around the character. The fact that people call their role 'helper' or 'assistant' really does not change anything about the historical background of "zwarte Piet"

    We are basically portraying a white man with black slaves as a great thing, and celebrate it. Combine that with the fact that it's mainly directed at kids who are very easily influenced in such regards... It's a bad tradition.

    I know that for 99% of the people this probably isn't the message they want to send, but even when not malicious it will influence the way children look at the world.

  • You should go read the blog post explaining how everything works! They basically pull out a shipping container of tricks to establish a connection when necessary. (Depends heavily on firewalls/NAT on the path)

  • YSK that in all developed countries, traffic fatalities have been falling. The only exception is the United States. In the U.S., the opposite happened. People die in rising numbers

  • I love taxes, I would gladly pay even more taxes if that meant everyone would be provided for.

    Except at the moment our taxes here in Belgium are already quite high, and our tax system is a complete cluster fuck with plenty of loopholes for the strongest shoulders to not have to carry their weight. Some part of that is even fraudulent, and they're trying to get a law through right now to find those cases of fraud more efficiently... But it is being opposed by parts of the govt with privacy as the excuse (which I'd normally agree with, except what they're trying to change is not that egregious afaik and the ratio of found vs investigated fraud is insane)

  • Help! I sold my soul for instruction in the immortal science but instead of alchemy Satan is talking about coats and linens? WTF

  • That's why you don't substitute the goats blood. It can be hard to find compared to other requirements... So yeah, a rookie mistake. If you're able to keep your soul make sure to follow all instructions next time.

  • What's the worst of your daily used apps? Be specific regarding the flaws: Performance-wise, usability, bad UI ...

  • For Visual Studio, the new release (2026) has improved the startup times. As for your other points... They still stand I'm afraid. Actually it got worse in terms of AI if you hate it, basically half the release notes were about AI this AI that.

  • Why do some people have so many browser tabs open?

    Jump

  • In terms of unique features there's a few places where it shines.

    Glance: You know how you open a link in the background to not lose the tab you're currently on? Well in Zen you just click it with Alt+click and it pops open in an overlay which you can easily click away when you're done with it (or open it to a 'full' tab if you need it)

    Split view: exactly what it sounds like, have multiple tabs open side-by-side or above each other in the same window

    Side tabs: exactly what sideberry does except the browser is fully designed around it with features like workspaces (with per workspace themes), essential tabs (are shown on top in each workspace) and pinned tabs (per workspace) all just being great.

  • Why do some people have so many browser tabs open?

    Jump

  • It's great, it does basically what sideberry does (or at least what it did for me, iirc sideberry had a config page 3 miles long so ymmv) but it's built-in and that allows for things an extension just couldn't do.

    And then there's glance and split view which I pretty much can't live without anymore
