What they're trying to say is capitalism is incompatible with the current climate emergency situation.

either capitalism goes extinct, or we won't be able to do anything

this will be the most epic fail ever... mark my words

Full disclosure: I was somewhat involved with the Quake development, helped Mike Abrash a little bit to optimize the asm code that actually made a pure SW 3D rasterizer fast enough to be playable.

The Castle Wolfenstein - Doom - Quake progression might seem from the outside to be a fairly linear upgrade path, but in reality Quake was at least an order of magnitude harder to achieve.

Just the number of amazing ideas John Carmack managed to come up with in order to make a real 3D game possible will forever give Quake a special place in my programming heart.

probably keep it quiet and don't say a thing... also, are able to use something else in case this sort of thing happens; and were probably already doing so

stupid idea turned out to be stupid

is this major media conglomerate MAGA affiliated in some way ?

your world seems to limit itself to a very tiny portion of the planet composed of the united states and their vassal countries

the finns were allied with the nazi germans... that's gotta put a stain on a country's history they'd rather hide to the world and complain about being invaded...
well, they'll have to accept their mistakes.

the US are soon to become irrelevant, as China is slowly taking over. all this sanctions business will start to slowly be ignored into oblivion.

FOSS Nvidia drivers may be coming faster ;)

besides, there is no smuggling going on, it's just one country commercing with another, and a third party that has no say in the matter attempting to object about such commerce

there is no such thing as a country "smuggling" goods when commercing with another country.
the US / west have no say in the matter. they're not the international commerce police, no matter what they pretend being

get monkeys !

Thatâ(TM)s patently false.
France had issues due to maintenance delayed from the covid period. Looks like the whole system is back at selling a number of GWh to Germany right now

I'm Norwegian, have driven EVs since around 2000, and only EVs since March 2016:

This was the first time I could buy an EV which had both a long enough range to drive up to the Telemark mountains to go skiing, and had the 4WD to reliably get up hills on snowy/icy roads. At the time, this was a Tesla Model S, which we since sold to our son, replacing it with the "made for Norway" Model Y (which has been the best-selling vehicle in Norway for the last 3 years).

As noted above, we started with a lot of EV incentives, we saved over $5000 per year in gas and toll road fees until around 2020 when they (as planned) started to roll back some of those incentives.

However, all of that doesn't really matter: By now it is pretty much inconceivable for most Norwegians to buy any new non-EV vehicle: They are just so much better!
