I've seen similar stories before, and I'm wondering whether (some?) US pumps might work slower than ours? Or maybe it is just larger fuel tanks due to larger cars... Here in Finland typical pumps fuel 40 litres/min, i.e. 10.6

I think there are too many people that have no computer and no home internet (and just use the their phone for internet browsing) for that to happen, at least generally.

I just got an email from Google saying > The Google Play Movies & TV app on Android mobile devices in the U.S. is now Google TV. I'm not in U.S., though, so I guess no rebranding for me...

In Finland in 2019, 625000 used cars were sold vs. 114200 new car registrations. I believe these include both private and company cars, though. This would be 85% used cars, 15% new cars. The average age of a bought used car was 13.3 years.

They seem to have lied elsewhere like in store pages (per other HN comments), but the datasheets specifically only mention "Performance Class" being "5400 RPM Class", which may be misleading but is not a lie IMO.

I believe most people just don't notice the judder, and many of the rest don't care. E.g. it took a lot of convincing to get Google to add "use 50p output" to Chromecast settings years ago (and that didn't fix 24p o

You can use a Club3D CAC-1085 DP1.4-to-HDMI2.1 adapter to get 4k120 with current GPUs with LG 2019 OLED TVs. No VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) though, so I'm just waiting for new GPUs myself.

Yes, they are able to track original sources (by never putting commingled units in the same bin), per seller help pages (and e.g. Amazon comments in this article: https://ftalphaville.ft.com/2019/04/03/1554287

No idea. I haven't experienced that either and I use amazon.de a lot. I've had one item sold by Amazon as new that was clearly a fraud return, though, i.e. the item inside the product package was switched for a different model.
