In the world’s richest country… … …

The fix is simple correct informative headlining from media “Tesla issues over the air update to resolve X thing related safety recall affecting X amount of customer vehicles”

It’s not NHTSA’s fault media does their job badly.

Plus they forgot few key words “in certain specific ways”. I don’t think say for example all of USA women are going to lose the right to vote. Something about a constitutional amendment. People shouldn’t blanket compare to Gilded Age, Dark Age etc.

I’m sure they thought themselves clever. Yeah their specific comparison in actual article was on point and then they go ruin it by over generalizing in the headline and insert

Well that could mean anything between “she died of not immediately obvious medical reason, so cause of death inguiry is needed” to “she was murdered, we are investigating”. Heck to investigate “there is no external markers, but we don’t know is it medical stroke or a poisoning murder”.

So I would say, wait until they investigated and tell, if they suspect foul play before jumping to conclusions. Not that Israel isn’t capable and on choosing so willing, but sometimes people just suddenly die of medical causes without prior warning.

Aka FPTP wasting votes in most USA states since someone thought it great idea to issue electors as state size blocks. When Constitution gives each state right to decide ways of apportioning their awarded electors.

State starts awarding 3 democrat electors and 7 Republican electors and suddenly both parties care to entice voters to try to make it 2 and 8 or 4 and 6.

Doesn’t even take removing the electoral college. Just state deciding “state wide FPTP is stupid”, we are going to start using something more proportional.

Even in swing states it would still work, work better. Since there would be fight over is it 5 and 5 or 6 and 4.

Well one doesn’t necessary need to get rid of electoral college, if the electors were appointed by proportional vote and representation. At that point it would be just a smudging filter. National popular vote with extra steps and some added in accuracy due to one being able to do so much proportionality given how many electors there is.

So the main problem is not electoral college, but the voting method. Just as note since also getting rid of electoral college isn’t a fix, if the direct popular election uses bad voting method. Like say nationwide plurality vote would be horrible replacement for electoral college.

Though I would assume anyone suggesting popular vote would mean nationwide majority win popular vote. Though that will demand a “fail to reach majority” resolver. Be it a two round system (second round with top two candidates, thus guaranteed majority result) or some form of instant run-off with guaranteed majority win after elimination rounds.

TLDR: main problem I winner take all plurality, first past the post more than the technicality of there existing such bureaucratic element as electors and electoral votes.

Always 50/50 because two party system, FPTP and electoral college.

Lisäksi jättää täysin huomiotta, että töissä käynnissä on kuluja/haittapuolia. On riski työtapaturmasta. Pitemmät krooniset ammattisairaudet ja vaivat. Kulut, työmatka, työruokailu jne.

Töissä käynti ei ole ilmaista, joten ihan ensimmäiseksi työkorvauksen määrän täytyy kattaa syntyvät lisäkulut. Sen jälkeen voidaan alkaa puhua henkilökohtaisen työhön käytetyn ajan korvaamisesta ja niin edelleen.

Statistical photography aka computational photography aka supersampling. Statistically bin together number of smaller pixels to cut the amount of noise to create picture of a lower resolution than sensor level, but better quality.

Threatening BBC in London seems like a really stupid idea. They will just call MI5 and the Metropolitan police. I would think British government takes dim view on a foreign government trying to pressure BBC in London.

P.S. You see that is the British government’s job, stay out of their turf. :)

Well the real curve ball is that some of the stuff is opposed jointly by unions and employers. Mainly stuff like starting adding crazy limitations to work based immigration.

One being a proposed 3 month rule. If you are on work Visa or residency, lose job and you have 3 months to find new one before getting deported. Which is real nice specially in summer in country where famously everyone says “Finland shutsdown in July”. So time it badly and you have only 2 months.

Then again that proposal came from the Finns party and pretty Mich National Coalitions consolation price to them for support. Rest of the labour legislation proposals is Confederation of Finnish Industries wet dream.

Also this time its more political, since goverenment proposals suggest touching actual right to strike suggesting adding more penalties for illegal strikes and narrowing what counts as legal strike.

Words like General strike has been bandied around. Well someone raises it always, but this time like more serious characters have risen that prospect. Mainly exactly regarding the more fundamental stuff like strike and protest rights. Still pretty low probability far prospect, but well this time the issues at stake arent just how many cents and euros to this dicrection or that.

i don’t agree that it keeps users locked in. convenience wise it should be alot easier with e-SIM, technically you should just be able to open up an app and install a new e-SIM and voila your on a new provider.

As long as the phone maker and the phone service company play nice. The whole point of physical sims is. “you break your phone screen and phone? You can literally in the minute borrow your buddy’s phone, slap your sim in it”.

Why would it matter? For example here in Finland we have this thing called The Mobile ID. Which is commercial high security identification method, that works on the SIM. It’s user interface is the phone, but the actually crypto and logging works on the SIM. Just as with PIN number, the phone is just keypad to tell the SIM the security code to unlock it and operate. Not only does it work on SIM, due to security it is tied to the SIM. Each ID is a cryptographic key living physically in the SIM. never to leave it. public-private key exchange between the authentication server and SIM. on first boot/activation, SIM generates in-situ the private key, sends the public key to phone company, normal registrations hand shakes. Only thing anyone else has is the publickey. they private key lives it’s live in the SIM and just on getting signatory request and then correct unlock PIN signs the request and sends it back.

Which again means in the “oh my phone broke” situation means I haven’t lost my mobile ID. Just yank the SIM out of the husk of the broken flagship expensive smart phone and slap it into the cheapest 30 euro “I make calls and send text” budget phone. Still works just as well. Any phone you find (that isn’t SIM locked) will work, since as said the ID is the SIM, the phone is just keypad interface.

Also physical external sim allows physical update of the crypto processor. with eSim, if there is hardware fault or vulnerability found with the eSim, you are toast. With physical sim? So sorry customer, there has been vulnerability wound with the Sim crypto. Do you come to visit nearest operator store to get your new sim for your phone or do you want it sent by mail. Specially on say long lasting equipment… It is a very good thing there is a physically exchangeable cryptographic component. Rest of the equipment isn’t toast, just because someone cracked the SIM crypto.

I get the “but different states sales taxes thing”, for national advert. However even then, just make them present example price

Get the new Moborola Bazer, only 549 dollars*
* price example for Buffalo new York, including taxes and fees

Since if one is going with “well the final price you pay might not be what was advertised”, make it be more representative and real. Yeah the final price might be different sometimes even lower depending on your local taxes compared to the example prices calculation locations taxes.

Local advertising or on the shelf prices? There is no excuse, you are selling in that location. You know what the taxes and fees are just add them in. Any rare special discount and discrepancy cases, well the people eligible for those know to expect the difference.

You know a stale mate is a possible state of war. One side doesn’t always have to be winning and the other losing.

SO if Russia starts lobbing around chemical and biological weapons, then Ukraine should do that too? Like not gonna work like that, for example biological weapons are one of those were you can’t just go “tit-for-tat”. Since every biological weapon used is new risk of launching a pandemic on the world and so on.

To certain level, yes if other side breakes the rules, we get to break them also. However there is a line. Line which you never cross. Under no circumstances should Ukraine be allowed to target medical facilities, even on Russia having done it multitude of times. Indiscriminate intentional bombardment of still habited cities with no allowing of civilians to evacuate should always be off the table. You just don’t do that. All it leads is to needless human suffering.

It’s one thing to aim for military or strategic target and miss and hit civilians. That is recognized as reality of war. Terror bombardment? Never to be allowed. Not to mention it doesn’t work. Every example in history has shown all it does is make the receiving end angry, instead of demoralizing them. It sets a “So it’s to the last breath then? That is the name of the game, fine that is the name of the game” and they fight to bitter end.

Sound like even a massive and monumental prank. Hope the guy likes jail. Due to the large amount this will most likely be charged as aggravated and Finnish police and courts don’t usually mess around, when it comes to explosives.

Guy has broken every explosives handling law in the books and with a lot of explosives.

Unless it’s all playdoug, but bomb squad would have figured that out quickly.

Oh and probably illegal threat with violence charge on top, since how else is one to interpret “hey, I put 12kg of dynamite in your car with detonators and called to tell you about it”

Lisäksi vastaus kysymykseen voiko poistaa kokonaan on ei. Perustuslaki kieltää. Oikeus sosiaaliturvaan on kirjattu perustuslakiin (onneksi). Ainoa tapa kokonaan poistaa toimeentulotuki on osoittaa henkilön olevan niin hyvässä taloudellisessa tilanteessa, ettei henkilötarvitse sosiaaliturvaa. Vähennyksiä voi tehdä, siihen asti kunnes ollaan ihan viime käden turvan tasolla ja sitten iskee perustuslaki stoppi.

Kyllähän ne varmaan yrittävät, mutta tulee taas törmäämään siihen himskatin nillitäjä laumaan (varmaan ainakin hallituksen mielestä) elikkäs perustuslakivaliokuntaan.

CAT, Cat Anti Tank. Disables armored fighting vehicles by missiling up to the vehicle, climbing on top and driving through the hatches to scratchs the hell out of the on board crew. Dont ask how the CAT, gets through closed hatches, practical experience just shows they do.

When asked about the hatches matter, the CAT complained about:

• questioners lack of understanding importance of operational security around classified war technology.
• where is their food, they don’t disable couple enemy tanks per day for free.

Benefit of CAT over other AT weaponry is they leave the vehicle in good technical condition to be captured. Minus gory remains of the previous crew inside.

Well it would probably “pee” on your floor. Since typically window unit air conditioners have condensation water tube going to outside edge and just letting it drip out. The condensation water after all has to go somewhere. Minisplits actually usually have a third line going out for that along with the refrigerant lines. Fluid in, fluid return and then condensate waterline for, when the inside is cooling and thus generating condensation.

Otherwise? It probably isn’t winterized, but theoretically… heat pumping is heat pumping. It would try to cool the outside air and thus heat inside. Though its thermostats probably would need tweaking. Don’t think those have setting for “please cool down to -15C”. Meaning in practice it would never run, since ambient already is constantly below its minimum temperature. Though as I remember most arcane old units didn’t have such fancy feature as thermostat. You just turned them on, they would pump at their full capacity constantly and you were yourself supposed to be the thermostat by turning the power switch off, when you didn’t want any more cooling.

Those amounts there. For comparison for example another recent plant Olkiluoto 3 in Finland was 13 years late on a 5 year original construction timeline (18 years total construction time) and 10 8 billion euros over budget on original budget of 3 billion euros. (Final estimate it cost constructor 13-14 11 billion euros to build. Technically its fixed price contract so customer price is still 3 billion. However it did bankrupt the builder Areva and litigations are ongoing about, if the French can extract more money from he customer TVO)

So doubling the price budget and doubling the build time is not at all unreasonable first estimate on the announced numbers of the builder and customers at start of project.
