I think most of the “requirements” they’re referring to are the technical ones, not governmental.

North America’s residential HVAC landscape is pretty simply and dumb compared to a lot of what is happening in Europe. Dumb forced central air systems dominate residential HVAC.

It sounds like they don’t like developing for all the weird hardware configurations that appear in Europe.

I like nuked food

My dad: “boiled hotdogs in store-brand white bread are what the real athletes eat.”

Yeah, he might be trying to do that.

He might also be trying to turn his polling on immigration around. All this shady deportation stuff has pushed him underwater on immigration. Americans were majority positive when it was all about slowing crossings, but they’re not down with deporting documented people, deporting people without judicial review, accusing people of gang crimes because they’re brown and have tattoos, or throwing people into gulags.

Trump is scared about his polls on immigration and he likely wants whitehouse protesters to protest with this in the background.

A lack of due process has broken through, and he’s freaking out.

It has a camera on the tailgate and the instrument cluster is a display.

Aside from being backed by Bezos, this seems like Lemmy the car. Under 20K, an EV, no stupid touch screen, designed to be repaired and modded, and even crank windows.

I bet the catch, aside from Bezos, is the range or charge speed.

The only reason people debate whether or not this is an issue is because bad faith actors get conservative media to tell people that this fake problem is real.

The data has never supported their argument, and when you point that out, they fall back to their old counter arguments of a) a couple random cases out of millions, and b) “there must be corruption, because I live in an echo chamber, I only know people who vote like me, and I can’t imagine that my views are not shared by the broader population.”

The rendering is, but the patent isn’t.

A bunch of rich folks with massive portfolios of inherited wealth telling the world that they need to rely on “merit” to come up in the world.

Pah-lease

Apple patents all sorts of weird shit. 99% of it never gets made. They just want the money from patent litigation and licensing.

Honestly, Intel has been up shit creek for a while now. No one big wants to use Intel’s fabs because they’re afraid that Intel’s design team will copy their homework.

Vertical integration has fucked Intel. TSMC’s fabs get all the important contracts from Nvidia, Apple, etc. And the massive client volume allows them to accelerate the evolution of their fab tech.

Intel needs to break their chip design business and fab into two separate businesses, otherwise it’s a continuation of the death march.

All his shitposts slide out of Truth Social now.

Looks like the market, once again, scared him back to down.

And the approve rating is our stereotypical 35ish percent.

36% positive. It’s always about 35% approval with the crazy authoritarian stuff in the US.

They do. That said, now that it’s really easy to mask whois data, I would argue that’s a less than perfect solution.

Imaging trying to explain the Curb Cut Effect to these morons.

That is 100% some “no paper trail” money.

Least shady thing you’re going to do with that money is to pay some undocumented contractors for work on your garden / home.
