Feels like you just want to moan.
What excellent news Farage has woken up to.
Great, let's split the vote even more, to the benefit of Reform.
A party whose leader just the other day said that he thinks gay marriage was a mistake and shortly before that was talking about restricting womens' right to an abortion.
Fucking brilliant.
They said they'd probably have to if Fedora removed support for 32-bit packages, which was a proposal to the Fedora Community (who rejected the proposal).
Long-term, I imagine Valve will have to bundle a 32-to-64-bit abstraction layer, like they already do with a win-to-linux abstraction layer (Proton), and are preparing to do with an x86-to-ARM abstraction layer.
Distros do not want to each duplicate the work of maintaining 32-bit support for all eternity.
Why compare it to nuclear rather than what's currently being used in that area? Coal and gas.
Nuclear is good for providing a stable base load, but having the entire grid be nuclear would be very expensive. And if everyone were to do the same, the market cost of fissile fuel materials would skyrocket.
Lots of solar and wind in the energy mix is a no-brainer.
This is such a depressing read. So fucked up. How can people be this evil?
I'm glad this has become illegal, but I'm sad it even had to be in the first place.
One way to interpret this is "ha, people consider AI worthless!"
However another way to interpret this is the same way users view everything on the web, from social media to journalism and media streaming: this should be free and they should use my data and advertise to me instead, consequences/enshittification be damned.
I don't know why there is such a focus on levies/taxes in this article. For energy, the VAT rate is only 5% - even if we scrapped it entirely, it'd barely make a dent. I truly do not understand where the "getting rid of levies will cut energy bills by over £500" thing comes from.
The only way to bring bills down is to bring the cost of energy down by increasing supply and bringing down our average cost per MWh for production of energy.
The good news is that the government, to their credit, have been doing that.
The bad news is that this isn't a "press the 'fix everything' button in No. 10, then everything will be hunky dory" situation, it's a "take action now so that we can benefit from it in 5-10 years" situation.
E: Reading E3G's own Energy Bills Charter, the only levy they want to remove is 'legacy costs', which they claim would save roughly £80 per household per year. They want it instead to be paid from income tax on workers. Legacy costs, btw, is things like insulation schemes and solar feed in tariffs. Of course, if it is paid via income tax, that'd be an additional £3bn the government will have to find from somewhere, likely meaning more cuts.
I don't know where this alleged £500+ has come from. It seems other-worldly optimistic to me.
Break the law and pay 0.014% of your market cap, or 0.31% of their 2024 profit.
Tech firms will suggest any invasive nonsense that will make them money.
Those present included representatives of Google, Amazon, Microsoft and Palantir, which works closely with the US military
A completely unsurprising list of companies lol
Absolutely grotesque and evil. It boggles my mind how some people can be this hateful.
