Nobody care if Chinese models are only 99%, 95% or 90% as good as SotA US models. Because we only have weights and able to self-host Chinese ones. Gemma 4 and GPT OSS are nice to have, but nowhere close to that.

Wikimedia might be not perfect, but Wikipedia is still one of the most visited websites in the world and source of a lot of humanity knowledge in general. Firefox on other hand is just something only nerds like us care about and only alive

Iceland is one of few countries that can actually afford to have no military. They live on an island. Closest landmass to them is Greenland that's certainly not plotting to annex them and its 300km away. There's no natutal resourc

Yes, but as told by DMCA creator quoted in video congress cant amend them much unlike any other law. Congress could obviously not pass ratificarion, but you know how its usually going.

People who work on Asahi want exactly that - working on black box hardware with no specification. Most likely they just not interested in working on well maintained drivers that require 1000 times more effort to upstream code.

Normal cards not very generous. Fintech can sometimes give 1% cashback capped at 30-50-100 EUR. Some weird crypto stuff can give more cashback, but it mostly for scheming nerds.

Important context: this is US thing. EU capped interchange fees at 0.2% for debit and 0.3% for credit cards. So in US card processing is x5-x10 more expensive.
