Doesn't sound much different from Britain, especially the part about long term plans and oligarchs. Except no Briton alive today voted for monarchy :)

I worked in Rome for a year, and I'd say 70% of my colleuges conversations were this. Where I live now you have 3 places to get things... depending on which supermarket chain you p…

I think something that worked well (against privacy) is in the US ISPs work with the studios, and you will get a letter threatening to be sued if you download a torrent. My country…

I'm not a mechanic but I have rebuilt an engine (common rail diesel with electronic injection) with a friend and do some work on my own cars. I don't really get the "everything nee…

Well quite a few nuclear powerplants have had to shut down recently due to droughts... So we are well on the way for that!

Used to be part of the $20/mo plan but it's not anymore (not sure if they removed it completely). However GPT-5.6 is pretty good at researching if you prompt it right, I've regular…

DeepSeek V4 Pro is ridiculously priced, especially when you take into account caching. According to the DeepSeek usage panel, 50M tokens have cost me $1.38. It's not the smartest a…

If you want slightly more affordable (they have prices listed - starting at £6k for a 48" TV) there's also Bang & Olufsen: https://www.bang-olufsen.com/en/gb/televisions

I'd just bite the bullet and get proper security cameras. I got a few 4K something or other from Ankke (rebranded HikVision) 5 years ago and they still work fine. They were about €…

The claims by the creators are it doesn't in a major way. I have a uncensored Gemma 4 I run on my Mac. Just for testing out, I haven't found any need for it... yet.

At least in my EU country, no the digital record is the primary. When you buy property you get a deed for the land, but the details of a property can change after that. The deed al…

It says unauthorized streams... but what does that actually mean? In my country they are broadcast free-to-air. Do you need to pay to watch the games in some countries?

It's worth noting that playing on string setters vs free-fall setters is quite different. The string alters how the pins move when they are hit. There's not really a "one is easier…

Well that is pretty much true. It's founder was a marketing director for a consumer goods brand.

Gemma 4 is already closer to gpt-4o level of intelligence, however it's knowledge is much lower.

I'd say Steve was actually wrong here. The move to streaming (which Apple had a big part in pushing, directly or indirectly), is actually what halted music privacy. Giving access t…

Here in the Baltics we already have an app for that. It's used to login to banks and government websites. Recently one supermarket chain added it for age verification on their self…

We hit 8 billion in 2022 btw. I think the problem is much worse than people imagine as well. Of those around 5.5 to 6 billion people live in "developed world" conditions (sanitatio…

What I really don't understand is throwing litter from cars. You literally cannot find somewhere in your car to keep the litter until you get home?

I can give an example. My parents live in the UK, and their house was built in 1985. A couple of years ago the copper phone line had to be replaced as it had degraded somebow. The …

In 2010 one of the standard configurations for the Mac Pro was $4,999. Once you customised ram, storage, peripherals and software it could easily end up above $15,000, or $23k toda…

Does it have full access to your chat history, project files, etc? That's the biggest limitation I have with voice mode right now, if I ask it about something I chatted about befor…

As a European reading these comments I never would have expected fireworks in the US to regulated at all. In my country you can buy whatever you want. The most popular time to use …

If you are just shipping code blindly without reviewing anything then that's your fault. My company heavily uses AI (I'd say 90% of code is written with AI assistance) but we never…

The article feels like micromanaging AI. If you think about it like a junior employee, micromanaging them will mean they end up doing the work you want and do it your way. But they…
