Why? Combustion engines are a dead end. European car companies ignored this and kept focusing on ICEs. Now they're falling behind on EVs, and the solution is... to focus more on ICEs?

At best this will buy the car industry a couple additional years, but doing so will make the crash afterwards even worse.

Sure, that's fair, but 1) you're just one user out of many thousands, and 2) stuff like "multiple 4 minute ads in a video" is usually rolled out through A/B testing, so many users probably never saw it.

Hm... It's suspicious you haven't mentioned any money going to Bavaria. Are you one of them dirty Greens?

Apps and video games have been thoroughly enshittified, at least on mobile, but also partially on desktop. Amazon Prime is also still very successful and people have not stopped watching Amazon shows entirely.

Do you see the major difference? In audio streaming, most providers have most content. In video streaming, single providers have most content. That means video streaming will get enshittified much more quickly.

Ah yes, who could forget that the US is at war with Venezuela

The article opens with:

LOCAL AUTHORITIES HAVE been instructed to implement 30km/h speed limits in built-up and urban areas “where appropriate” by 2027.

Now, do you really think "where appropriate" includes roads built for 100km/h?

Great initiative. I really feel like people over 60 believe everything they read online - age limits should really help protect them from misinformation.

Do you think they'll finally announce Silksong?

And some percentage of those 95% should consider trying a real prison, because the frequency of minors being sexualized - even in mainstream animes - is disgusting. Yet some people keep putting that shit in, and some people keep liking it.

With a broken containment field, the reaction will simply stop. Fusion is hard because at small scales everything has to be perfect.
