That’s some incredibly bad reporting and fuzzy math presented as facts:

The contract stipulates the creation of over 100,000 units of 155-mm ammunition via Expal, a Spanish company Rheinmetall recently acquired in November 2022 for a hefty sum of 1.2 billion euros.

Other, more credible reports state that the order is for several hundreds of thousands of DM121 shells - meaning the math here could be easily off by a factor of three or more.

Even Rheinmetall’s own website states that the order is for several hundreds of thousands of shells.

Which would mean that these shells would cost about as much as they always have, and maybe even significantly less.

These cars don’t even go onto highways or areas where accidents are more likely.

Accidents are less likely on highways. Most accidents occur in urban settings. Most deadly accidents occur outside of cities, off-highway.

There’s no obligation to provide a paper “Bon,” stores can just offer digital receipts by default.

Doesn’t work with Android 13 and up, correct?

I would also like to learn about this law that apparently prevents Google Maps from showing speed limits in my country, but allows Waze to do so.

Clearly the driver is at fault here, but a case can be made (and apparently, was) that this would not have been possible had you not provided access to the car to the perp in question.

This is the equivalent of holding gun manufacturers culpable if someone buys a gun from them and then uses it to commit murder - right?

Former Republican president/Republican presidential candidate has dinner with Nazi. College Republican invite Nazi as guest speaker. MAGA Republicans invite Nazi to speak at their rallye.

Republicans, when confronted with this: “Why are you calling us Nazis!?!?!?!!”

Pocket Casts is available as Android and Windows app; Apple Podcasts isn’t.

Pocket Casts syncs between MacOS, iOS, Android, Windows and Abby device that asked you to open the wenn player; Apple Podcasts doesn’t.

It’s not garbage per se, it just doesn’t fit the same use case.

The mods never had leverage

Of course the mods had leverage: they could have just walked away.

The reality is that there’s no difference between mods and users: everyone is just too addicted to their routines and habits and mindless opening of Reddit and doomscrolling that the vast, vast, vast majority of people just wanted to go back to how things were.

Many “tech journalists” are about as old as Facebook.

When they started using devices, the iPhone had been around for years, and the only discussion platforms they ever knew where centralized platforms with millions and millions of users run by mega corporations. In their personal life experience, Reddit has always just existed, they’ve never known a world without YouTube, Snapchat is what they used when they were little kids, TikTok had been around long enough that’s it’s considered an established media outlet.

They’ve never seen a Usenet group, they’ve never had accounts on phpbb forums. Choosing a smaller platform with a more selective userbase just doesn’t exist in their reality.

Seems crazy to pay $42,000 per month for the API, have the API randomly break on you, have no tech support available, and just generally witness all the insanity going on at Musk’s Twitter, and yet still hold out hope that it’s all going to be fine.
