Where is the bunny suit option?

Sure, we could buy lots of solar and wind but we need to diversify our energy supply. If we only had wind and solar and one day all of a sudden there happens to be not enough wind and solar that could cause huge energy instability. Or, what if the Russians cut a cable that brings energy from a large offshore wind/solar farm leading to power uncertainty in the country.

Obviously those scenarios are unlikely but that doesn’t mean they can’t happen. Having solid, reliable energy is one of the most important things a country needs to be prosperous. Is nuclear perfect? Fuck no, but it’s way better than coal, LNG, or any other fossil fuel energy source that we currently use. I believe having more nuclear power stations to provide a solid fallback option is always beneficial even if they are expensive and are imperfect

Half-life 3 launch trailer! /s

Jk, in reality I’d love to see more about the new bond game. Was hoping they’d show more after they showed off the first trailer.

Agreed, I’m more cautiously optimistic (cause you never know how it’ll go) but IO do have a good track record. Hopefully they give themselves time to cook and make it excellent!

Can confirm your point on Manchester busses in the past. Woohoo much better now with the bee network

The interconnection between the modes of transport is another great point. At least starting with having train transfers be more coordinated (since they wouldn’t be run by different companies) is a good start.

Unsure how coordinating all the different privat bus networks would go but definitely something the government should prioritise too. If the system can actually work then hopefully that means we can get people out of cars.

I like nationalisation as a concept. I don’t like that currently it is still a concept as Labor has not made clear, concrete commitments for what it could mean.

I understand that ticket prices are unlikely to come down. It sucks but I hope they can at least commit to freezing prices for a while or something. I think nationalisation offers the opportunity to rework the ticketing system as a whole to have it be completely integrated. I hope this would mean you can just tap in and out of stations and have the lowest price automatically calculated like they are in some European countries (the Netherlands for example).

Unfortunately Labour hasn’t said anything clear about their plans other than “we want to make it better”. Hopefully we find out more in the Autumn.

Hopefully FSR 4 becomes a standard feature like dlss has become

I’d heard about reMarkable but not sure if it’s exactly a kindle competitor. Also uses e-ink but it heard more towards taking notes. Far as I can tell it created the segment that the kinda Scribe competes in.

Not used one so interested to hear a user’s take.

Damn, could have sworn it was

This address must be their European HQ. Given their telephone number starts with +1 and all other sources say San Francisco is their base, it’s fair to say not European.

To their credit though, it’s a US company that is actually doing great stuff with laptop repairability. Hope Fairphone, tuxedo or others uses their designs to make their own modular laptops that are intercompatible

I want to do this so bad. Issue is they don’t offer enough storage for me. I need like 3 tb for photos and videos. Hope they offer add-ons to make that a possibility

Proton pass has this functionality. You can also give it a separate password so if someone gets access to your proton email they can’t get into pass

Fuck the Israelis, they don’t need any more funding for their invasion.

As for other places, I’m glad they are still letting some money go outside the EU. Hopefully this results in joint development of stuff rather than reliance on those external partners

In the Netherlands there is Splitser which even has iDeal integration but never seen anyone else use it

Hopefully it’ll get big enough they peripheral makes will finally make Linux native apps for their stuff. It’s one of the biggest hurdles to me moving completely to Linux

You’re argument is very convincing. Guess I have to buy a jetski with the money I hav… Oh wait

I knew the Scandinavians where up to something with their IKEA propaganda! We need to go back to crazy embroidery with gold highlights on everything. Just need to find the money…

Can confirm, never works unless your very persistent and the ambulance shows up

As someone on the boundary between millennials and gen Z. Sometimes I am cringe as fuck and sometimes I am based. The worst part is, it’s hard to predict when either will happen.
