Genuinely great blog post!
This is perfect for !linuxmemes@lemmy.world though: "nah I don't want to switch to Linux, it's hard. I'll just compile QEMU with some patches to run VMs on Windows"

A permanent exception may actually be OK: China is much further along in the energy transition and the CCP are not doing that out of the kindness of their genocidal hearts: economic forces make electrification inevitable, as we can already see with EVs.
Also, the European market is big enough to have global impact, even if our rules aren't matched by other world powers eventually.
That was my first response too, but on second thought, this may be a good balance between keeping European industry strong and green incentives:
- EVERY COMPANY pays carbon tax over what they sell in Europe: the EU made sure that carbon tax is paid over imports too so it is not worth it to companies who want to sell in EU to move production out of Europe
- By not taxing exports, European heavy industry gets to compete fairly outside Europe too: American companies don't pay European carbon tax on what they sell in the US. If we would tax European heavy industry exports, they would be at a severe disadvantage.
European heavy industry isn't doing great overall. This is partly their own fault: lobbying has focused on keeping grey tech alive instead of enabling a green transition, but also largely because of high wages and regulation in Europe.
We need to push European heavy industry through the energy transition, not into bankruptcy. I'd rather do the energy transition a little slower than be completely dependent on American and Chinese companies for steel, aluminium, etc.
And I've been arrested at many climate protests, so don't tell me I don't care enough about the climate!
OG Crysis!
It's a pretty great Deck game, and I'd never seen it run as consistently as it does on Deck at 40fps limit.
keep it on cache since I do a lot of code compilation, but I will usually switch it to frequency for gaming and stuff.
Isn't gaming the most cache-heavy CPU workload there is? The X3D CPUs have consistently topped gaming benchmarks, even outperforming much more modern CPUs that lack 3D cache.
I'd sooner do it the other way around: frequency for compiling, rendering, transcoding, etc. Cache for gaming!
@Smorty@lemmy.blahaj.zone this feeling you describe, is exactly how I feel every time I see one of your posts on Lemmy.
Thank you for the good vibes!
It's not something to be proud of, that's obvious.
But Rutte was not made secretary-general because of his personal pride. I wasn't happy to have him as prime minister, at all, for all those years, but he is very good at one thing: getting everyone in the room to agree and making everyone in the room feel heard.
This is how you get Trump to be enthusiastic about your project. He is using Trump's ego to get him om board with NATO. This is top-tier manipulation, and it's working!
Rutte is the perfect man for this job, and this is exactly why. No pride, no ego, just doing whatever it takes to keep the unity in NATO and to ensure we are strong enough to deter Russia.
Nothing is too big a task for the armed forces that flew the MiG-21 for 61 years and turned it into a precision bomber.

Yes, it's called CBAM and it's the most beautiful tax I've ever seen:
