Why would Biden, Macron bother with this company, and not others?

Yes I agree, Biden is also very tough on corruption[1], historically so in fact.

Barely went to Biden in 2020, yes, but Gov and Legislature are GOP dominated, and have been for some time.

But this is only because of Trump's lies and Fox news collusion with Trump. If they gave Biden and honest wrap and told their viewers how historic a Biden presidency would be and how Biden would fight like hell to bring the prices of kitchen table issues down then he would have won Arizona in a landslide.

It is not just a pledge as so far he has not broken it https://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/promises/biden-prom...

Files expose attempts to lobby Joe Biden, Olaf Scholz and George Osborne

They can't be very smart, Joe Biden is the least corrupt president ever and has committed to total transparency: https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-biden-briefing-idUSKB...

To a carbon negative anti-racist economy that values LBGTIQ+ lives and the rights of birthing people.

If you rush and do what you are saying without finding an efficient way to store a surplus of energy then you will have blackouts come winter.

But this is only a problem while the economy is still in transition[1], once the transition has completed this will not be a problem.

https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases...

They're not arguing it's an economic harm to decarbonize, they're pointing out that it cannot physically be done, at all, without some way of storing energy.

If this was true why is the US economy doing so well in the transition off carbon based fuels while being the most inclusive in history[1]?

This is especially true if you do not classify nuclear energy as green energy

But nuclear is not green [2], and labelling it as such is just green washing.

Here is an NPR article which shows that media coverage for Trump was less positive and more negative than for the 3 preceding presidents: https://www.npr.org/2017/10/02/555092743/study-news-coverage...

And you can trust them because they rightly recognize Biden as a historical president: https://www.npr.org/sections/president-biden-takes-office/20...

No matter how much you try and disparage the US press, for the most part the mainstream press are warriors for democracy and one of the reasons why US has such a healthy and vibrant democracy.

We will need it later, you can't go 100% 0 carbon without it.

I think this is just what capitalist is trying to make people believe, the economy will adapt and jobs are already booming as the unemployment in US is at a historic low which shows just how historically strong the economy is [1].

[1] https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases...

Well this is not true because Biden has already started transitioning the US off fossil fuels without any long-duration energy storage and he is doing it in a historically inclusive manner[1].

The Biden-Harris economic strategy is producing historic results: https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases...

Also he is the first president with a female black LGBTQI+ press secretary, He also appointed the first female four star admiral and nominated the first black female supreme court justice. He also has a historically strong mandate as more people voted for him than any other presidential candidate in history.

I can go on but I think if you Google Biden and historical you will find many more examples.

Also CNN made a list here https://www.cnn.com/2020/11/30/politics/historic-firsts-bide... and this was from before he even took office, which should be a good indicator of just how historic he is.

And another list by people https://people.com/politics/here-are-all-of-the-historic-fir...

Biden is likely the most historically significant president in the history of the united states[1].

I think nothing is a better indicator of a robust democracy than press who recognizes greatness when they see it.

Being against hate and for protecting black and Trans bodies and birthing people is not exclusionary.

Not sure how what you cites implies the media was fawning over Trump, if I recall correctly the coverage was not exactly positive, and I explicitly mentioned singing the praises of, not just reporting.

The guy is pretty contemptuous of legal authority; he thinks he is above the law and he might be right

Of all the funny things I have read this week this takes the cake, Biden will not allow him to get away with it, not a joke.

I think it is just a typo.

Maybe you linked to the wrong article, that article mentions "Duque’s spraying campaign" - fairly sure that Duque is not US.

Also Biden is the most progressive president in history, and I think with Colombia's track record when it comes to black and trans bodies you should maybe look in the mirror before pointing fingers.

That is some word salad of a title, makes it sound like some accident. This was an assassination. Shinzo Abe was assassinated.

Look at the price of Yen to USD.

The instantaneous exchange rate between two currencies does not give any information about the strength or weakness of the economies that operate on those currencies.

Mostly just foreign EV makers qualify, which cannot be the real intention of lawmakers when they made the law.

Of course it is because the capitalist state prioritizes shareholders over stakeholders.

They are allowed to hide behind the false narrative because governments only care about shareholders and not stakeholders.

I'm surprised that they haven't heard of the possibility of energy storage.

Have we not? I think the real issue is that we have capitalist pigscum that are greedy and want to burn the atmosphere if it can give them an extra buck and the EU is beholden to them that is why they made this change.

I'm fairly sure this differs for different project/organization, not sure there is a rule, and not sure there are really any considerations that are specific to open source, good practices are good practices regardless.

That being said, I rate Canonical's practices as rather poor.

You can do interesting stories in any setting.

While it may be possible, money grubbing capitalist pig scum like Disney seem completely incapable of it, so I doubt this will end well. Capitalists destroy everything because instead of focusing on stakeholders they focus on profit above all else.

I'm in Europe, I can unsubscribe with 3-4 clicks, depending on how you count:

1. Click user icon in top right hand corner (I would not count this one)

2. Click "Account & Settings"

3. Click "End membership"

4. Click "End on {Month} {Day}, 2022"

Two clicks will also be nice, but not sure there was a problem that needed fixing. Maybe it is worse in some parts of Europe than others, or maybe I get a different menu because I'm an immigrant to Europe and not a European.

I have also done it many times before and the process was more or less the same, prime just simply does not have enough content to subscribe for more than one month at a time, so I always cancel immediately after subscribing.

I see, forgive my English, I guess because I'm not a native speaker I miss the nuances of how what you quoted at all matches the definition of cover up, thanks for explaining. I will listen and learn, and I hope Americans can listen and learn to not murder BIPOC and that BIPOC lives matter, but I guess with the poor schooling system there is no funding for this, and likely even if there was funding to teach children that BIPOC lives mattered the US supreme court will ban it.

coverup attempt around this killing might have contributed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Ahmaud_Arbery

Did a quick search through the article, can't find a mention of any attempt to cover up the killing of Ahmaud Arbery, can you elaborate? Is there an ongoing investigation into this and is there some way we can help? It is insane that in 2022 the authorities in America are still complicit in lynchings and that nobody does anything, it disgusts me. How long will this indiscriminate murder of BIPOC continue, why can't America do better? What is it about Americans that drive them to murder BIPOC?

A redundant solution doesn't have a perfect uptime just because it's redundant, in fact sometimes it might have even less uptime because of failures in the redundancy mechanism

I'm fairly sure that google does a better job keeping cloud spanner and cloud run working, and their redundancy mechanisms working, than whoever runs your single linux box will do.

most of the time it's better to be on a simpler setup that's easier to debug and less costly to maintain

Keeping a whole linux box running is more complicated and requires more maintenance than Cloud Run and Cloud Spanner.

Also, I wouldn't underestimate the cost of maintenance in managed solutions compared to self-hosted.

It is not 0, it is just that if you manage cloud run and cloud spanner you don't manage all the other things you have to manage when you self host, and managing cloud run and spanner is really not a lot of effort, it is a lot less effort than managing a standalone database at least.

You also have to add the cost of adapting your solution to their infrastructure, which is not trivial either.

Cloud run can run stock standard docker containers, you will have a bad time if your processes are not stateless though, and you will have the best time if you have a 12-factor app, but I would not count that as adapting to infrastructure.

And you can use AlloyDB if you want Postgres.

Scrum is mostly defined.

Then cite the definition? If you will cite the https://scrumguides.org/ - I have yet to work in any team that uses scrum that follows this even slightly.

In the limit, there are some startups that could run production on a single Linux host

I guess redundancy is not really a thing then?

With serverless offerings you can get rather good deals, I don't think you need your own K8S cluster if you can get away with a single Linux host, but a single Linux host is pretty pricey maintenance wise compared to google Cloud Spanner and cloud run.

Products carrying the CE mark should adhere to these standards.

And what evidence is there that Logitech MX products don't?
