Hard to say. When comparing the deaths from covid in the US and Norway per capita, there are approximately 890 k extra deaths in the US. That's obviously not all Trump, though. Norway has a much better health care system, and a much smaller percentage of idiots. And while the latter obviously caused Trump, it's not set in stone that the latter caused the increased mortality in the former by making them refuse vaccines, ignore mask mandates etc. There's more correlation than causation here.

Also, here's a rare gem - Trump did something good with operation Warp Speed.

The current GOP is not left. They're extreme right at the moment - fascist-adjacent is not "minimal state". There's nothing conservative left, it's been consumed by right wing populism with a mix of fascism The current administration. It's corruption, populism, fascim, racism, disdain for knowledge, and plain stupidity in an ugly mix.

Wouldn't the OpenJDK versions of these be supported by enterprise Linux vendors, like Red Hat or SUSE?

Granted, I don't see the "ELS-1" (extended life support) for the newest ones, but I'm unaware of whether that is because it hasn't been set yet or because there won't be any - unlike the previous OpenJDK versions.

Under this administration, you know the underlying cause is they didn't pay off Trump, his family, and his cronies.

It's sickening how corrupt the US has become. Sure, one can argue it's been bad - but Trump has turned it up to 20, on a scale from 1-10 - just bulldozing through any limits one thought existed. "Want a pardon? Sure, buy some millions in Trump coin and it's yours." Or just giving himself a giant slush fund via a settlement with his underlings.

You pay for them in Norway too, unless you're a health care worker in contact with patients or in one of the at-risk groups - old people, people with chronic diseases etc.

Some employers will offer them for free - it's common for kindergartens and consultants, for different reasons. The cost is usually around 30 - 40 USD.

Whole milk isn't much of a problem - as long as it's pasteurized. The brain worm is hawking raw milk.

Not necessarily. If you magically decrease the cost of a development effort by 90%, a lot more projects will be done. The ROI of an effort isn't only affected by the return, but also the investment.

15 GB has been enough for me. My oldest email is from 1999, as I imported some older email as accounts - and I've used it since the beta invitation phase.

If I had photos there too it would not be enough, I've got hundreds of gigs of photos and movies - but those are on iCloud where I do have to pay. I've got a local copy on my NAS as well, but the added convenience and safety is worth it. There many memories there, for decades.

The ironic part is that they claim to be against DEI because one should select the most qualified candidate... and they end up with least qualified(*) cabinet ever. You can't go lower than e.g. Hegseth and Kennedy - the worm must have eaten most of his brain. And others - who probably know better - pretend not to. E.g Bessent pretending not to know who pays tariffs.

(*)Except for boot licking, of course. That's on North Korean levels in the US now.

The storage is not just used for the inbox, but the archive as well.

Doing some research seems to indicate that it's related to a 14 day trial period of games - so one can't download a trial, disconnect the console, and play beyond the 14 days. After 14 days, the authentication is converted to a permanent one.

Beyond that, I'm also trying to see why it's a problem - the combination of a downloaded game purchase and no Internet access sounds rare. And if offline gaming is important, physical games are usually cheaper and shouldn't have that problem.

Among consoles, the Playstation 5 is clearly doing well - it's a well made product, and to be fair: The new restriction doesn't bother most users. For it to be a problem, you need to be using downloaded games and the console not being connected to the Internet. That doesn't sound like a normal combination. If offline use is important, buy physical games. They tend to be cheaper as well.

Other than consoles, their wireless headphones are among the best, maybe even the best.

Beyond that, they have popular products in the photo category - and while that whole segment is suffering from phones, Sony makes a lot of the sensors used in the phones so they get a piece of that pie too.

This is Europe, so selling that data can get you in deep economic trouble. Same if a company buys it for use in Europe.... Chinese intelligence are surely siphoning the data, though, but I doubt they're selling it.

This is not being pushed by social media. On the contrary, these are pushed in order to enforce bans of social media to children, which most Europeans want.

You don't know for sure that an attacker doesn't know of or use this problem - or keeps it at hand in case an opportunity arises. A security bug doesn't enter a plane of non-existence just because you don't know that it is actively exploited - yet. It's a problem waiting to happen. These tools make some of them easier to find, for both good and bad actors. Ignoring it won't help.
