I just looked up the dimensions and it's ridiculously big. You'd have trouble parking in it most places where I am from.

The car park there has been falling down on it's own for years and the office spaces vacant for decades. If they could knock the flyover down too it would be a boon in my opinion.

For years I've used this as a home page of sorts for Microsoft products. It's very annoying not to be able to use it now.

I'm also from 'across the pond' and think this is technically unworkable and is likely not going to fix any problems at all.

> Never investigated myself, but some car-knower once told me that running the tank on low always isn't good for the fuel pump, or something like that. The main issue is that it ri…

Loads, you can usually tell if something is limited to 2.4Ghz only. Cabled up an EVSE the other day and the brains of that was a ESP32 chip.

That's why the whole NCAP safety table is topped with Chinese vehicles then.

Why would you assume you can become a skilled blue collar worker in a year?

Nobody in Europe thinks that healthcare just exists for free, but that it should be available to who need it for free and are happy to pay for that via tax.

Seems easier to comply to the single market rules though than 50 odd different states.

It's also down to vaccination requirements for EU based farms who take far more preventative measures than US ones. It's why you can eat raw eggs and keep them out of the fridge in…

If the US pisses enough countries off with this Greenland stuff that they shut down US bases around the world, that substantially curtails the US Navy's ability to be effective glo…

Putting the timing chain at the back of the engine away from the front is generally done to reduce torsional vibrations and tends to help with space claim, especially for pedestria…

From this year all EU cars will have physical buttons for heater controls, media etc.

Modern cars are far more reliable than old 'analogue' cars - primarily because of the integrated electronics. ECUs can detect when engines are running rich or lean, knocking or 100…

Personally, the additional complexity and overheads required for a P2P phone network is not worth while and I'm not sure it would fix that many problems that haven't already been f…

As a Brit (an actual one, not because my great great grandfather was one) I'd have to say that pub culture in the UK is not strictly about drinking alcohol at all. It's a social pl…

Yet because of it's existence, thousands of people have been able to love beyond their countries borders.

This is Hacker News is it not? I'm sure if this guy wanted to buy an Apple watch, he could have just done that.

The EU aren't a member of NATO, so that's simply not true.

The last line of that news article is quite important here. He was also arrested for a harassment charge which if memory serves was more serious than his tweets alone.

My Polestar 2 (shared design from Volvo's EVs) only uses brakes once it's hit its regen limit, this changes based on battery capacity and temperature but in the real world it means…

Given that we have shows on the state broadcaster which criticise the government, there truly isn't a shadowy force supressing it amongst the population.
