I agree with you, but there is one small caveat:
Any deal where the actual logistics of anything within Iranian artillery range is ignored, is a victory for Iran. A pretty shit victory, but it also means they get to push the same global buttons the next round so long the world is a petroeconomy. The same is true if any tribute is levied. Pipes won't really do anything if you could you know... just artillery the pipe or the end points. Or all the facilities needed for oil.

Its also very telling that Israel settled for attacking partisans instead of starting a long term ground invasion.

While you have been able to do "Hey Gemini" or "Hey Google" for quite some time, BUT its bolted on Android Auto, and Android Auto is several conflicting apps with the same name behaving like different versions of a trash fire.
This is just another update that is going to break across the 3-4 different versions of Android Auto, where they are not going to touch any of the core issues such as the app wrongly picking LOD and being too zoom trigger happy.

I also get wanting to be able to distribute something that isn't satellite tiles, since polygons are easier to cache and distribute. But bu this pomt I have been spoiled by trying the Tesla NAV(pulls satellite tiles, reasonable optios to display longer non zoomed stretches, satellite tiles correctly render roads instead of trusting the LOD to not display anything, proper routing options and being able to fully queue navigation). And a little bit by Osmand, for basic shit like topography, or easy access to precaching an entire region.
And running Android Auto Google Maps is sometimes leagues above running stock navigation, which isn't been updates since the 2010s, or the newfangled Chinese solutions where it will randomly stop working due a silly way to pull down new data.

Correct. This is attempt to use the literal FUD caused by the Trump administration. to see if its possible to have a real alternative to running banking/parking/id apps on custom rom sets.
The catch is that either the writer or the press publisher do not understand the distribution mechanics at play. Play Integrity exist to make a man in the middle attack via distributing preinstalled phones harder. If they could get a larger OEM like Xiaomi or Samsung on board, this is a very different issue, but at the end of the day the problem is that you don't want to create multiple packets for distribution unless strictly necessary. If that means stock Google Play, so is the true limitation.

A common issue in construction is that a building is not going to be built by the investor company, its going to be built by the investors shell company. And since the investor company is not a mason/lumberwork/foundation company, they are going to hire other people to do the work, which is also going to hire other companies for specialist work. A few might spot the issue here. If there is a different company doing the outer shell and moisture barriers, then the company doing the drywall or the foundation has very different responsibilities from if it where just 1 contracting company or one parent company doing all the work.
So, why a shell company?
So if there are large legal demands for quality & health issues within the warranty period, you can and will declare the shell company bankrupt. Now, this do not free up the parent company entirely, but it means any larger warranty claims will then have to go trough courts on a far less automatic less burden of proof on the suing part.

Now, there is a far more prudent example of what the original poster in this chain is talking about
"Ryanair has historically utilized a contracting model where pilots are engaged as "self-employed" directors of their own Irish Limited Liability Companies (Ltd), rather than direct employees. These pilots, sometimes grouped with others in similar setups, work via agencies like Brookfield or McGinley, supplying services to Ryanair"
This is illegal in several parts of EU, but its also partially legal in several parts of the EU.

Auto can decide to not heat the front windshield, thereby fog. Same with not circulating air to the side windows, again fogging. Another important option is to reduce the temperature to 16-18C as you are at the last 5 minutes of driving, to remove moisture buildup.
Do your car have decent HEPA filters? Its the difference between needing to manually hit recirculation when entering long tunnels, or not.

"carnot efficiency"? If R290(propane) can get a COP of 4x at 70% effectivity, what are you selling?

How many weeks of fasting or keto? Asking not for a friend, but for non-general data.

Windows CE launched in 1996 died in 2018, and never reached any benchmark of success or market penetration. It existed to occupy a market segment, and only served that purpose.
By moving away from binary compatibility, you lose the core reason to even run the OS. Now, the user do not decide what OS to run: Rather the supplier vendor do, or the software vendor do. But in my mind I don't think Microsoft can survive burning the only realistic reason to stay on the platform, even if its a symbiotic ecosystem where the OEMs technically pay them to supply the OS.

If Doland was a bright man, this would be a stepping stone to see if its possible to blackmail the Chinese into closing their fent labs. There is an entire infrastructure chain of not legitimate targets who facilitate the drug trade.
But since Doland isn't that, there won't be a longterm strategic effort.

Similarly this would be an excellent opportunity for the South American countries to band together in a NATO type treaty, which they won't due for a lot of cultural reasons in their leadership.

GM and FORD is in the situation where they are not making cars, due CAFE standards and corporate rent seeking sheenigans colliding with each other. That is all that is happening. This can be assumed is due any number of reasons, such as the marketing part of the company running the engineering division, or the old old buy club, stockholder capitalism, globalization and the rest belt, or any number of other reasons.
They are still selling 3 sizes of Ford Transit, 2 car models competing with the Tesla, and has a good global distribution network. But all its really going to take is making worse engines, fewer cars, going all in on the idea of the SUV and the Truck, and eventually 5-10 years of bleeding money might not be enough if there is another leap in technology in the BEV front.

Software defined cars is just the cherry on top. At the end o the day people use the car to drive from A to B, and the superb driving vehicle is what sells. The cherry is only going to make a difference once you have to pick between 2 superb vehicles.

As far as I am aware, there is no larger battery storage that is a electrochemical battery. There is only holding back generation on gravity fed mechanism, such as hydroelectric.
The reason to bring this up, is that so far we have only seen batteries getting cheap enough to start replacing rotating mechanical inertia. Which means you are talking about a speculative future prospect, which isn't wrong to do, but its not relevant for today.

Consumers has also looked into off grid applications(solar and cabins, for instance), and we have gotten to the point where some people have started calculating if a +>10kWh battery system could make economical sense by only leeching electricity when its the cheapest from the meter during the night hours of low demand.

"No, no, this pile of numbers that is contradictory to my statement can't be true. I won't acknowledge them"
Sure, bub. Dig yourself down, and double down on copium.

I get that you don't want to attack the argument anon, and try to skim on the technicality.
But at the end of the day, ACER has successfully homogenized the prices to the surrounding price zones to German level for winter.
>They get a lot of cheap hydropower
? Then "The wholesale price of electricity in Germany is in line with the rest of the EU." can't be true.

There is a small technicality: ACER and the project to build a connected grid
So no, that isn't true at all. PL energy is priced cheaper, so is Swedish, Norwegian and Finish. What about the Baltics?

Even worse: What about in 2007, which is as far back as your data go?

Going by prescribed OIT dosages for peanuts, you can have a allergic reaction down to about a little more than 1/250 of a peanut. That means a finely grounded peanut could contaminate up to 200-250~ portions.
That means in a poorly cleaned environment, guess what is going to actually contaminate everything? Its where the labelled concerning peanut contamination comes from.

Similarly, if you are paying for OIT for peanuts, you are paying for roughly 0,5 1 3 6 12 20 40 80 120 160 200 240 300mg of peanut per day per week , in escalating doses, for longer than 13 weeks. And about 200mg is a peanut.
And you will pay for that, since finding the dosage chart is somewhat of a hassle, but also because reducing the peanut down to 0,5mg to get the starting dose, and confirming the escalation steps is awkward to do, even more so if the patient has a very very mild allergic reaction. Such the peanut allergy really being cross reaction from pollen.
Similarly, if you got pollen allergy, to see what the treatment immune therapy/tablets costs, and see if you can get it covered. If not for the 4 weeks of the year where you don't function, at the least talk to a expert about cross allergies and see if anything else could be fixed by the pollen OIT.
