What jurisdiction are these laws you're talking about? Because they are absolutely not universal. Especially a mandated COL increase. Just lol. That sounds like something that happens in some of the Scandi countries but it's not a fixed amount. And caps on rental increases are absolutely not a thing in most places.

If you point out it's possible that making bad financial decisions is the cause rather than the effect you are called all kinds of names. I believe "victim blaming" is the one most commonly used by people who want to infantalize the poor by telling you they have no way to be personally responsible for making those deicsions.

Nvidia is therefore a bubble. This article is complaining that Europe is an obstacle to further bubble inflation.
No amount of Nvidia etching IP onto wafers is worthy of a 4.6 TRILLION market cap - bigger than the 4.2 Trillion market cap of the ENTIRE name-brand pharmaceutical industry.

I hope you got a good relationship with them! My son can't even talk yet. So, right now, he's just this cute thing that runs around and causes trou^H^H^H^Hgood things to happen.

Yes, I'm positive. You seem to have a passing knowledge of this, but obviously not a complete one. None of thoe things you mentioned are capable of getting firmware and configuration from the manufacturer to program a new replacement module or update modules with new firmware. "Just replace all of your car's electronics with things that can be flashed with linux software" is not a reasonable or sane solution to anything. Again, more white noise nerd rage over linux and the state of how things actually work in the world, not limited to your parent's basement.
