From what I remember, there's a very heavy emphasis on engineering in Russia, and they produce more engineers than any other country. They may have some brain drain, but plenty to spare.

To expand your palate. And also, once you get a taste for them, you ascend to a higher plane of existence.

There's a secret to liking olives. You have to keep eating them until you pass the gross-bliss barrier. I used to hate olives, but now they're like crack to me.

Can this even be considered a meme when it hits so close to home?

I don't have much of an opinion on Twitter or what Elon does with Twitter, but I'm not a fan of this rebranding.

That said, I'm going to upvote you since the rest of Lemmy is apparently all about quashing dissenting opinions.

Yes for OLED. Sometimes for LCD.

From what I understand, LCDs can have a resting state that will either stop light, or a resting state that will let light through. The backlight remains on, but a panel that natively blocks the light will require less power when showing black.

Depends on the resting state of the LCD.
