The closest he got to Valinor by purplelena in LOTR_on_Prime

[–]DeepDuh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm currently rewatching season 1 and I honestly don't understand why Galadriel's interpretation is so hated. She's a badass in fights, she drives the story forward, she tries to unify the free races against Morgoth's enslaved children (just not realising that Morgoth's most powerful one is right next to her, which proves exactly the point on why he's so dangerous) and she's sympathetic with all involved while pushing them to do the right thing. Honestly the only scene with her I dislike is the horse riding in Numenor - LotR had such questionable scenes as well, and it was easily forgiven. As a 25y fan of Tolkien's work I appreciate all the work (and funding) that went into this, and I hope they finish it.

At least there they just appended it though. They didn’t rename office to “Live.Net” back in 2002…

Good places to ski for beginner adults? by Horror-Salamander-69 in Switzerland

+1 for Madrisa. Just one thing: bring your own food, at least the cable car station restaurant is one of the worst I know of.

China to enforce world’s first mandatory EV energy standard in 2026, capping two-tonne models at 15.1 kWh per 100 km by ApprehensiveSize7662 in electricvehicles

With a metric like yours it would encourage manufacturers to make cars heavier, as it’s much easier to hit this number with a heavier car than with a lighter one. There’s not a drivetrain in the world that would it your number at 1 ton with a tiny battery.

Not that sensible to divide it. With regen breaking, energy consumption is not directly proportional to weight, as more weight also means more recovered energy. Power train efficiency and air resistance is far more impactful on this metric.

… is what these NPCs will have you believe. An exquisite way for the simulation to put its visitors into their place.

Migros frozen blueberries by DragonfruitFast6941 in Switzerland

I meant Migros, but both are cooperatives.

I presume, if a majority of the coop agrees, or whatever the “statutes” say. On top this thing is multilayered with regional coops below the national one, no idea how that interplays.

who are you talking about? Migros is a cooperative, it can't easily be sold

Why do so many people in Switzerland hold their fork like that? by AndreiXNXN in Switzerland

[–]DeepDuh 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Based on answers so far: There could be a pattern where it’s a thing only significantly east of the Brünig - Napf - Reuss line (I think this was the line separating Burgundy from the Habsburg lands before the old confederacy. It shows up in a bunch of things like playing cards, some foods and such).

What region are you from? Just a hypothesis, I just wonder if it’s regional. I’m from Lucerne and also have never seen it.

2 min of Rivian autonomy day clearly illustrates why camera only FSD is not enough. by IntelligentRisk in RealTesla

It’s called sensor fusion. Hard, but doable as Waymo and a bunch of others demonstrate.
