No one is forcing you do use apps outside of the app store. It’s about choice.

If such a competitor emerged they’d not be able to trade in the EU, given the size of the EU economy that ain’t happening.

Hopefully it’ll hit the point where retirement funds divest. Once that happens Tesla will go into proper free fall.

Hell, hopefully retirement funds (maybe not yanks ones but at least those from other countries) will start to divest out of American markets entirely as they become more volatile as your flip flop president changes his addled mind every half an hour.

No that decision is, for most people, made for them. You use the server provided for you by your ISP/work/university or the one that’s associated with logging into your smartphone.

Eastern Europe collapsing in the power vacuum left by the fall of the USSR, multiple civil wars, horrendous war crimes including genocide. NATO having to go in.

Yes china has a lot of coal power. They also have a really fucking lot of solar. They are also currently in the process of installing twice as much as the whole rest of the world combined. The huge amount of renewables they’ve installed has lead to some analysis pointing to the potential that they have now reached peak CO2 output.

Whether the motivation is energy security, reducing costs or green policy it doesn’t matter. At the end of the day the results are the same.

Sitting at 60 in the middle lane, and then getting angry because people are tailgating and both over and under taking. Have some fucking lane disaplin.

Sounds like you’ve been drinking some shit twinings level Darjeeling.

I think the £3 bottle of prosecco I got from aldi and the £100 Champaign taste the same.

It worked so of course they didn’t extend it to other things with more hidden sugars (things like pasta sauce, flavoured yoghurts etc)

SNW is much better. It’s not a single story stretched to fit over a whole season helps a lot. It’s definitely one of the best of new era Trek.

Season 3 of Picard is better than the first couple, but doesn’t really add anything.

The stand out surprised at how god damned fucking good it is though is Prodigy. The first few episodes are a little bit childish, but after that it is excellent.
