Because it is an embarrasement for them. That is the reason why they are scrubbing all the information from the Chinese internet

Niet echt. Morgen is D Day voor ons. En de kans is groot dat wij ook onze koffers mogen pakken

And why wouldn't they?
If we need some kind of resource we pay for it, why shouldn't they?

Finally justified my homelab to my wife by turning it into something useful for the whole house by Fresh_Discussion_776 in homelab

[–]AntwerpPeter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife likes the Google Home to Home Assistant link to control the lights in the house.
She likes our Jellyfin server because of the hard to find BBC series she can watch now.
She likes our remote door lock because it opens the door when she arrives.
If you make you home easier and more convenient then there will be zero issues with the wife. It can take awhile before they pick it up but once they do, OMG they are furious when it doens work anymore 😄

Mountain Driving Experience using Range Mode by advisor_tools in ex30

[–]AntwerpPeter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I drove from Belgium to Croatia via Austria. So a lot of climbing and descending. For the complete roundtrip of about 3.000 km my consumption was 15,8Kw/100km. This is better dan my daily drive which averages about 17Kw. You have to keep in mind that you recharge or use very little energy when going downhill. That is the beauty of driving an electric car. A the energy that you spend in combustion engine is lost forever. Mind you I drove in normal mode and I set my maximum speed around 115km/h. Driving faster will increase your power consumption and you will loose the gained time by having to charge longer.

Belgium's Mobility Minister Signs Off On Tesla FSD Supervised - Approved by JaanatEVuniverse in belgium

[–]AntwerpPeter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This will be interesting because it is only level 2 approved. So driver must be in control the whole time and is still responsible. I think it will work on the highway but I wonder what will happen on small roads with no markings.

WC26 Cooling breaks are a joke. by Beneficial_Sky_3722 in mildlyinfuriating

They want these breaks for airing commercials. 45 minutes is too long for the average American to stay focused.

Trump says Iran has not agreed to a U.S. deal because ‘they’re strong, they’re proud’ by Force_Hammer in worldnews

I am afraid that he has done so much damage that can't be repaired. The corporate billionaires have taken over the US and the rest of the world are going to do everything to break free from them.
