Trump is actually right here. Tax havens benefit themselves at the cost of their neighbours.

Close down tax havens!

Seeing musk, trump and a Tesla in a single shot just makes that toxic association so much stronger. I don't think this is going to play out like they hope.

Plus, you know the boycott is working, talk about desperate.

Haha. Nah, you're good 😊 . Brits like beans because they're cheap, easy and available. They're ok, hardly a culinary experience worth seeking out though :)

Although they are one of your five a day!

Using Twitter and so on for official government channels was a short sighted decision.

Sync for Lemmy is a good app' if anyone is looking for RIF like experience. Sync

"not very good". I'm actually getting really rather angry about this. In fact I think this might be a hate crime.

Big tax incentives for business to buy ev's - 2% Vs 30% tax as a 'benefit in kind'. The two Tesla drivers I know both bought through their business and then gave it to themselves as a company perk.

However, Britain must try harder here. Other EVs are available.

You're correct. I guess they're comparing against compressed pngs. Judging from the image at least.

But still, I think they're cherry picking one of the worst formats to make the comparison look good.

Not to say that means this is bad. Just the cost/benefit is not nearly as good as it appears. We need comparisons against ETC or DXT.

The performance cost is not insignificant.

And comparing it to uncompressed original pngs is disingenuous. No games are using uncompressed textures.

I think a lot of people down voting this need to read it again. They're not saying you should go faster because someone is close behind, they're saying go slower.

If they're 5m behind you, the safe speed is 20. If they're 2m behind you the safe speed is 10. (Numbers pulled out of my hat).

The lengths we go to hand medical cannabis to the pharma industry...

I mean it's a plant. Throw some seeds in a pot of soil. Done.

There's a whole section of law that determines when the police are able to take DNA samples or fingerprints, and more laws for how long they can keep that information.

It's regulated. And bringing face recognition under biometric regulation is a no-brainer.

I'm on a Poco right now. The hardware is great, so once you remove as many invasive built in apps as you can you've got yourself a great deal.

Look up how to use adb bridge to remove apps. Most are safe to remove, SOME are not. There are lists online that will tell you which is which for your make and model.

I remember this being announced to a big fan fare... And now it's being quietly dropped. Shame on them. 1%? They didn't even try.

Anyone who hasn't played this game should do so now. It's a thing of real beauty.

Thankyou for digging past the headlines and showing your findings. No one has the time to do it all the time but together we can.

The headline says

A record 35% of people aged 18-24 were classed as ‘inactive’ this year, driven by a mental health crisis.

The FT article references this as its source of data - https://explore-education-statistics.service.gov.uk/find-statistics/neet-statistics-annual-brief#dataBlock-58d70635-dc1a-4172-997b-fb5bc73d7166-tables .

But that source says

The percentage of the population defined as ‘not in education, employment or training’ (NEET) in 2023 is estimated to be 11.9%. This is 0.5 percentage points lower compared to the same period in 2022 where the estimated figure was 12.3%.

So where is FT getting its figures from? Or did they just pretend that training is the same thing as inactivity? (•_•)

He's got a book to sell or a gig or something. He'll try getting into headlines in any way possible right now.

It was banned because twitter failed to appoint a legal representative, a condition of doing business in Brazil. Failing to appoint a legal representative is kind of like sticking your fingers in your ears 'nya nya nya nya' and hoping your problems go away. They didn't.

He's just trying to sell books now. Ignore him.
