It’s against couple of Geneva conventions, but who cares about those…
- Comment on SpaceX's Starship blows up ahead of 10th test flight 4 days ago:
Iterations are getting more frequent, which is a good sign, right? Right?
- Comment on Trump Mobile launches $47 service and a gold phone 1 week ago:
But it has “5000mAh long life camera”. Seems good to me.
- Comment on Taiwan adds China’s Huawei, SMIC to export blacklist 1 week ago:
Besides, there is also a tiny difference that Taiwan is not a lunatic blood-thirsty genocidal war-monger child-killer state-terrorism country.
- Comment on Taiwan adds China’s Huawei, SMIC to export blacklist 1 week ago:
I have to ask, where do you see similarities between the two? How even?
- Comment on Android 16 is here 1 week ago:
They are, but they stop coming eventually as well.
- Comment on Android 16 is here 1 week ago:
IMO the only problem with using older version are security updates, or better, lack of them.
- Comment on Google confirms more ads on your paid YouTube Premium Lite soon 2 weeks ago:
If it was only few seconds. At best you can skip after 5s but then you get plenty of 15-50s ads every 5+ minutes or so with some videos. It makes it almost impossible to watch it.
- Comment on Google confirms more ads on your paid YouTube Premium Lite soon 2 weeks ago:
Yes, sure, I just don’t want watch ads. There is really too much of them
- Comment on Google confirms more ads on your paid YouTube Premium Lite soon 2 weeks ago:
I would of there was a family tier that plays YouTube without ads in my country. The content I watch is good and authors deserve payment IMO. Sadly there is currently no competition, there are some marginal subscription services and there is peertube which doesn’t have monetization.
- Comment on Google confirms more ads on your paid YouTube Premium Lite soon 2 weeks ago:
There is another benefit - it can be played in the background if I remember properly.

Yay, Vodka production in danger? Now, that a real threat to Russia stability.

US needs just an executive order for termites to stop interbreeding.

Again?
- Comment on Microsoft bans words like "Palestine", "Gaza" and "Genocide" in all company emails and fires the employee who protested Microsoft during event. 4 weeks ago:
A normal well adjusted person wouldn’t work for a genocide enabling company in first place.
- Comment on This vast 1.3 GW Indiana solar farm will power 200,000 homes 4 weeks ago:
Batteries you say? Where are those mentioned and what’s their capacity? And mind that solar works best when your other source is fossil fuel based, but it’s counterproductive economically when it comes to nuclear power.
- Comment on This vast 1.3 GW Indiana solar farm will power 200,000 homes 4 weeks ago:
You’ve got a 9.9kW install and nobody said it doesn’t produce energy during clouds, it degrades the output. While your output during night is 0.
- Comment on This vast 1.3 GW Indiana solar farm will power 200,000 homes 4 weeks ago:
Emphasis is on days, while clouds degrade power yield.
- Comment on This vast 1.3 GW Indiana solar farm will power 200,000 homes 4 weeks ago:
But only during cloudless days.

Probably only the image is linked. Here
- Comment on Trump: The EU is ‘nastier than China’ 1 month ago:
Yep, this shittalk and attitude is exactly because EU is trying to appease him, which he considers weak, instead of standing firm.

So, pay more it is.
- Comment on Switzerland Unveils World’s First Operational Solar Railway Project 1 month ago:
Huh, what? While placing solar panels on the roof isn’t ideal, it’s far from problematic. And roofs aren’t only on resident houses, you have plenty of industrial ones which are usually even better as they are flat.
- Comment on Switzerland Unveils World’s First Operational Solar Railway Project 1 month ago:
Yeah, we’ll see. There are so many possible issues with this, starting with why. We still have plenty of roofs to cover which are easy, predictable and yield better output for much lower price. Then there are issues with vibrations, efficiency and pollution at least.
- Comment on Intel to Announce Plans This Week to Cut More Than 20% of Staff 1 month ago:
It still could be a mistake in the long term, though. Imagine the wise US administration slapping 1,220,332% tariffs on Taiwan? Or China wreaking havoc there. I still think Intel could fare well with better leadership handling their fabs.
- Comment on Intel to Announce Plans This Week to Cut More Than 20% of Staff 1 month ago:
AMD did that, but Global Foundry doesn’t do that well, at least compared to TSMC. Also Intel was going strong with their fabs until AMD started building better chips architecture wise. I’m just saying that splitting might not work.

C’mon they have a video showing it! It has to be real!!!
- Comment on Qobuz reveals how much it really pays per stream, and I want to see more of this transparency to help us spend money more ethically 2 months ago:
I moved from Spotify to tidal as well. Tidal is fine except for their catalogue mess. They tend to group different artists with same name to a single artist. Here and there I feedback them, they correct it in a week or so but the first next album is wrong again. But I’m glad that at least it pays music owners better and doesn’t throw money at shit podcasts and such

It works well, what do you want more? Sure, it’s not official but the most of the important bits are official since at it’s core it’s a web app.
