You will find the exact same items on Amazon, except usually more expensive. There are many items sold on Aliexpress that are of decent quality. I think the point is to buy what you really need, and focus on quality, rather than impulse buy

Universal import taxes on everything make no sense. If you want to protect strategic production, you apply selective tariffs to support that local production while ensuring it can ramp up and import what it needs until it becomes self-suffi

Tesla car’s don’t have a great reputation for quality or service. They were among the first and the cars were good enough to persuade people, but there are many alternatives now. People are less likely to pay a premium for Tesla. And the br

China has little to nothing to gain from being an allied of Russia. China needs to export to the West to survive. The Russian market is not able to absorb what China needs to sell. China has already distanced itself from Russia. China’s hap

Why is it the responsibility of the US to single handedly stop the war? We don’t know what Harris would or wouldn’t have done. But we know that what Trump is doing is not going to end up well for Ukraine. Dealing directly with Russia as if

Why? If censoring s a problem in these applications, they’ll just make two versions: one lawful-adjacent for the government and one with all the chains that will be mandated for the pleb.

10 minutes reading into the madness of this project, it's claimed sustainability, and you realize that the amounts to be spent there, and the fact that it's build on the necessity to solve dozens of huge technological hurdles, mak

And what if the car swerves, and you aren't able to correct in time and end up killing someone? Is that your fault or the car's? I would bet that since it's your car, and you're using a knowingly unproven technology, it

I wish there were more offerings for socialising around hobbies. Strava looks great for some sport activities, but I’d like to meet other nerds into 80s computing, hobby electronics, comics, sci-fi, home automation, kayaking, city explorati

Would mineral deposits be sufficiently large and conductive that they would cause an actual issue between components? They would probably represent nothing more than minor stray resistance/capacitance. Assuming it was conductive enough

Tangential question: as I now start suffering from arthritis in my hands, I was wondering if there is anything linked to diet that could help reduce it? I had read that fatty fishes were a good source to reduce pain but in your experience,

Having conversations naked is actually a great way to level the playing field: nobody hides anything, everyone is just as vulnerable. One of the great principles of Naturism.

Could it be psychological? The fact that caffeine doesn't seem to play a role, it looks like the act/ritual of drinking coffee and probably expecting some effect from it has a psychological impact? You could always run a double-bl

When you see the size if the impact across the world, the number of people who will die because hospital, emergency and logistics systems are down… You don’t need conventional war any more. State actors can just focus on targeting widely de

That wouldn’t help. The proposal “got around” weakening encryption without outright removing it. They “just” wanted anything you sent to be scanned before it was sent encrypted. Stupid and dangerous, the even have sections in the proposal t

What do you object to exactly if the biometric data is on device only? I’m not sure what is the privacy risk there. The apps that authenticate you don’t have access to biometric data. The main risk I see is if that data was compromised and

No real contradiction: MS implementation is probably in line with current data protection regulations. Everyone has eyes on them. Doesn't mean others will take as much care, or that new cool tools will not push the boundaries of what&#

Isn't MS Rewind/Recall supposed to be encrypted and offline, on-device only? I don't see how it could be anything else and pass any data-protection regulation (in the EU, at least). It's a hazard and its usefulness needs

Parquet is not a database, it's a storage format that allows efficient column reads so you can get just the data you need without having to parse and read the whole file. Most tools can run queries across parquet files. Like everything

Are messages to self even safe on Telegram? Secret chats don’t work between the desktop client and the app, so I would suspect that, like the rest of the messages, everything is saved on telegram’s servers in the clear. Or am I missing some

What Tiny Tapeout is doing is amazing. Who would have thought that makers and students could have their own chip design made real for so little money? The tools look amazing as well. You'll won't design the next Intel CPU on that

My guess would be that since they need to record a shot without knowing when it happens, and then forward the sound of the shot to an expert to confirm it was gunfire, they must have the capability to locally listen and record continuously,
