That sounds a bit contradictory but there's an important details. Part of the accusation seems to be about picking winners, ie giving subsidies to specific companies rather than the sector as a whole.

The anti-subsidy investigation has been intended to confirm the Commission’s allegations that manufacturers of battery electric vehicles (BEV) in China benefit from countervailable – i.e. specific and advantageous to the receiving companies – subsidies

If that's true then a tweak to subsidies might technically solve the issue without changing the EU-China competition balance.

IMHO the EU should focus on carbon border tax, and on doing it quickly and efficiently. The idea is taxing import from countries that don't tax pollution, or at least less than the EU does, to make competing companies subject to similar emissions tax/regulation.

Thanks for the explanation. I'm considering Matrix but will hold off, at least until v1.11 or v1.12 solves the unintended CDN issue described in another comment here, cf https://matrix.org/blog/2024/06/20/matrix-v1.11-release/#continue-reading

Neat. I wish OpenSSH better support this use case. The instruction involve multiple moving parts on top of OpenSSH (s6-ipcserver, socat or custom scripts) and a number of extra options for the client. That probably adds overhead. It would probably be easier and more efficient if OpenSSH would directly support Unix sockets.

I'm interested into the technical details, not actual URLs. How come servers cited in the video keep hosting/seeding chatrooms despite closing corresponding accounts? Is this impossible due to Matrix's design, or is it poor moderation from server admins?

About URLs: the author is absolutely right to blur these. The only people he should be sharing this is police, or maybe admins if they're not aware of the abuse on their server.

That's the first time I hear of Matrix having this issue.

I'm curious to know more, but the video only cite an anonymous source. Are there evidence or more technical details available regarding this?

The article cite a peer-reviewed scientific paper paper which indicate satellites reentry has a significant effect.

Have you published (or know of) a better research paper that show this is incorrect?

the population of reentering satellites in 2022 caused a 29.5% increase of aluminum in the atmosphere above the natural level.

[..]

As aluminum oxide nanoparticles may remain in the atmosphere for decades, they can cause significant ozone depletion.

The incident, he added, amounted to "piracy".

That exact word came to mind when reading about the incident.

And there is international law on piracy:

there is universal jurisdiction over piracy on the high seas. Pirates are denied protection of the flag state and all states have the right to seize a pirate ship on the high seas and to prosecute in national courts.[

They were years ahead of the curve with AI hardware, and they're well placed to benefit from the AI craze.

Regardless of whether a company's AI product is useful, or profitable, they need lot of hardware to make it run.

The commission said 29 people have so far filed to run for the presidency. But after today's decision, Mr Putin remains the only candidate to be able to register as a candidate.

Not just this anti-war candidate. It appears all candidates are banned from challenging Putin.

Social media divides us, makes us more extreme and less empathetic, it riles us up or sucks us into doom scrolling, making us stressed and depressed. It feels like we need to touch grass and escape to the real world.

New research shows that we might have largely misinterpreted why this is the case. It turns out that the social media internet may uniquely undermine the way our brains work but not in the way you think.

Be aware that Middle East Monitor is rated "Factual reporting: Mixed" and strongly biased as it sometime use poor sources and use loaded words.

La Croix published an alaysis of this Isaiah Prophecy quote (french). They found it's a poor and/or convoluted reference, and that article do not mention "Holy War" so this expression is most likely editorializing from the Middle East Monitor.

If a car is advertised as smart or connected, there's a good chance it collects too much personal information.

That's too bad because most new cars are, and it may cause some people to keep their old polluting but privacy-friendly car longer.
