Exactly this. Here in Denmark, 48k plug-in hybrids were sold in 2020, falling to 4k in 2025. The same numbers for fully electric cars were 38k in 2020 and 144k in 2025. Once the public charging infrastructure was here, the change was dramat

EVs are probably not going to depreciate as much in the future. The depreciation mostly happened because new electric cars have become cheaper. As an example, let's say a 2 year old car is only worth 80% of an identical brand new car

I don't think you're entitled to an equivalent phone. If we're talking patents on essential things like a cryptographic algorithm required for banking or a technology required to implement 5G, sure, the patent holder should b

What other mechanism can there exist that would have the power to change the behaviour of these giant corporations, except government?

I am from mainland Denmark, but have visited Greenland and a have number of native Greenlander friends.

No, Greenlanders are working towards independence and gaining independence from the US seems much less likely than from Denmark. Additionally Greenlanders aren't looking with admiration at how the US has treated other indigenous people

Compared to your average site using the Google Funding Choices dialog where I just counted 11 clicks to reject everything. https://tvtropes.org/ is an example, if you dare.

How so? It's two clicks to reject everything. There aren't even any "Legitimate Interest" shenanigans like Google Funding Choices has.

No, the laser printer was revolutionary. Xerox' previous business was photocopiers that could only make copies of existing physical documents you'd already typed out or pasted together. The laser printer was connected directly to

Yeah, no, the ROI on Xerox Parc was excellent for Xerox, because of the technology they _did_ successfully commercialize on their own: the laser printer. It helped Xerox to $8 billion in revenue in 1984, a level Apple didn't beat until

They are. Sometimes the managers are smart and voluntarily listen to the workers, but that isn't the same as workers having power. What should happen is that better run companies both get more value out of their employees and attract e

Exactly this. There's no guarantee Kagi will never get worse, but it will become worse in a different way than Google has since Kagi isn't ad supported.

The EU as a whole has a pretty large oversupply of food, so using arable land for other things than agriculture is no big deal.

The Japanese, family-owned, generally pre-WWII conglomerates were called zaibatsus. After WWII they were (nominally) dissolved and the now more loosely connected groups of companies are called keiretsus.

Depending on how stringently you define "no extra electronics" you can get there with a 1st generation Hyundai Ioniq. The only things I need to use the touch screen for in daily life is navigation and choosing media. Be aware that

I love the clearly Starcraft-inspired look of the statboxes for the pieces.

Yeah, the relevant definition of unemployed is basically "did you reach out to anyone in any way about a job within the last four weeks?", even asking a friend if their workplace is hiring would count. And the survey is surprising
