LED headlights can be many times brighter than incandescent bulbs with no significant impact to life expectancy. Physically, incandescent bulbs produce light by heating up an element which decays relatively quickly. LEDs directly convert electricity to light.

In the US, there ARE regulations limiting how bright headlights can be, but aftermarket LEDs can be bought which exceed the limit. I've heard the EU and Asia already widely use adaptive headlight technology so it's a uniquely american car problem

they use proprietary file formats (MOV and HEIC) that need to be converted to a universal format like jpg or MP4 to be viewed on android (I think this can be changed in iPhone settings), and the conversion looks like shit

As of now the law seems to be that you'd still need to show a physical ID to police, this wouldn't be seen as valid. Tbh this doesn't seem useful

the cold war turned every civil war into a proxy war with at least one large power (the US) prolonging conflicts and fuelling large death tolls by supplying weapons to the right-wing, if not directly intervening

vietnam/cambodia/laos, both afghanistan wars, angola/namibia, liberia, sierra leone, syria, ukraine, both congo wars, occupation of lebanon, libya, yemen, and the years of lead are some examples of this

less nations legally declare war on each other now because declaring war requires UN backing, but the cold war was a violent extension of imperialism that never ended and a lot of people have been killed

Almost all children’ need mental health support Crickx also said the mental health of children in Gaza was being severely affected by the offensive, and that a million children in the Gaza Strip require mental health support.

Children in Gaza “present symptoms like extremely high levels of persistent anxiety, loss of appetite, they can’t sleep, they have emotional outbursts or panic every time they hear the bombings,” he explained.

Before the assault erupted, UNICEF estimated that more than 500,000 children in Gaza needed mental health and psycho-social support.

Wow, a new class hasn't been developed since 1987 due to the lack of a profit motive. That's somewhat nice
