No one is banning them from using their care. Just from plugging their car into a device that has enough power to kill anyone who happens to use that care because of shoddy repair work.

The 2010s and Obama called - they want their foreign policy back. Most countries (including the US) have signed global minimum tax rates at this point. Effective tax rates (either directly or via clawbacks) are theoretically 25%. Of course,

With the global minimum tax rules in place, weighted by GDP and by revenue, corporate tax rates are actually fairly consistent across the world - roughly 25% worldwide. It's a myth that companies are not paying taxes, and also a myth t

This is a problem that is far far older then DOGE. And maybe, just maybe, the answer is to both raise taxes and reduce spending?

A couple of points: 1) The deficit applies to discretionary budget. Medicare and Social Security are not discretionary. 2) Really. You can't cut anything out of medicare and social security (both of which are the most expensive progra

Some intellectual curiosity: If tariff revenue is rising, and the economy hasn’t shrunk (yet), and DOGE has returned money (recission later being authorized) then some money was clearly generated. Alternatively, Doge could have been totally

My 918+ was a huge step up from my homebrew homelab server. People who advocate for a duct tape solution for systems that contain their entire lives on their disks are doing most people a disfavor. Having a well baked disk and backup storag

"The term "salvage" was a complete shock, but a deeper dive into the CARFAX vehicle history report, which he didn't pull until after the sale, uncovered a "minor accident." Photos of the damage made it look mor

What culpability? Tesla has a inspection process if a car has been damaged.

Let me guess, without reading. This is a salvage title, not a car in perfect order. IIRC, Tesla is willing to reconnect, but only after a really expensive evaluation of the car. It's too risky putting a really big lithium batter up to

I suspect that OP might be having his photos re-indexed. Running on old hardware, and not seeing this problem.

Synology has been totally sleeping to the point that they have let outside players like Ugreen come in and offer really competitive offerings, as they try to transition to enterprise offerings. Ubiquiti entered with a 7 bay version earlier

It is one of the greatest military, cognitive dissonances of all time that European generals recognized how brilliant Grant was, and failed to understand every single one of the principles by which he eventually overcame the confederacy. It

I always found this the most interesting aspect of the timing of the bombs. They occurred at the one moment in 20th century where their power could be seen in a way that everybody immediately grasp the outcome of it and that no response was

Your understanding is incorrect. Even with the atomic bombs and the Soviet entered to the war, the cabinet still split about surrendering. Before that The Japanese had started to talk about a cease-fire, but that cease-fire was expected to

by InTheArena 1y ago
This is false. There has never been any historical record at that time that shows that “warning the soviets” was any part of it. In fact, the USA disclosed the bomb to stalin beforehand hand. Anyone who postulated that was not in the chain

TrueNAS on a good bit of hardware - in my case the latest truegreen NAS is fantastic. You build it, it runs, it's bulletproof. Putting Jellyfin and/or plex on top of it is fantastic.

A great exercise, and one that stretches the platform in a way that will inevitably help. That's incredible value and a great public service by jeff. Probably not a great idea given how ZFS is architected for memory utilization and EC

In any moral framework that does not include perfect knowledge of the future, the nuclear bomb is morally defensible at worst, and morally required at best. Sheer number of lives saved? The Nuclear Bomb ended the war. Number of Japanese liv

Which religious leader? Hirohito? Hirohito rarely took any direction of the war - at best he enthusiastically endorsed what the ruling militarists wanted. As critical as one could (and should) be about this support, there is plenty of docum

This is mostly untrue. Most of this narrative comes from Soviet propaganda that was later propagated by anti-Western and anti-war groups in the United States. More recently, it's gotten more attention as Vladimir Putin and Vladimir Rud

This is awesome because of how un-Apple-like it is. With Apple, they leverage the ecosystem and force you to buy everything to make a cohesive experience. Want to have cellular on your Mac? We expect you to buy an iPhone and a laptop and te

I don't think I agree with the Go is good in LLMs. But outside of that - ML in go is basically impossible. Trying to integrate with the outside ecosystem of go is really difficult - and my experience has been that Claude Code is far le
