How is it nonsense?
The EU law is that the reject all should be exactly as easy as the accept all button. 1 extra click, however minor of an inconvenience it is, is extra effort. And therefore strictly speaking in violation of the law.
Nothing will ever happen but it's valid criticism.
But MS had nothing to do with both the testing and rollout?
It's a broken 3rd party component. Croudstrikes testing and rollout procedures were inadequate.
Surprisingly, no. Most inverters in the EU must come with island protection. Meaning that if there is no AC from the grid it immediatly switches off the inverter or the battery, there is no stand alone operation.
There are some systems that allow it but they are rare here and require the mains side to be fed trough the inverter itsself ensuring it's never back feeding into the grid when there is no power with the same island protection, or less commonly there is a transfer switch of some kind also eliminating the issue. And either should obviously have a main kill switch on the breaker board for emergencies that also switches off the in home power with 1 action.
But most importantly, either of those options is not plug and play and will require an electrician that hopefully does know what he's doing.
The cables in your walls are designed for a certain maximum current before they start to heat up. This current is limited by your breaker.
Now if you introduce a plug in solar setup your current is limited by your maximum breaker capacity + whatever your solar setup can generate.
So if I'd use the specs from the article and apply it to a normal dutch home situation: 16A breaker, + 800W at 230V, which means ~3.5A = 19.5A max. which is probably still fine for short durations.
But now some genius doesn't read the fine print and hooks up 2 or 3 on the same circuit. There is no electrician that tells him that's dangerous because it's all self installed and he doesn't know any better. And all of a sudden you are up to 26.5A and you got glowing, smoking wires in your walls...
It is not, but a write amplification of 36704:1 is one hell of an exploitable surface.
With that same Raspberry Pi and a single 1gbit connection you could also do 333333 post requests of 3 KB in a single second made on fake accounts with preferably a fake follower on a lot of fediverse instances. That would result in those fediverse servers theoretically requesting 333333 * 114MB = ~38Gigabyte/s. At least for as long as you can keep posting new posts for a few minutes and the servers hosting still have bandwidth. DDosing with a 'botnet' of fediverse servers/accounts made easy!
I'm actually surprised it hasn't been tried yet now that I think about it...
Charging from the left side isn't all that either, some macbook pro models actually become slower due to thermal throttling because charging from the left creates heat closer to the CPU. Resulting in a significant CPU slowdown.
No no, they are planning to add, nothing about when it's being added yet. This patch is just a very small number of quest blocker fixed.
That sounds interesting. Do you have anything going in depth about what data is being collected by Firefox? I haven't heard about that before now.
Not 100% true according to the description on that page. It just hides the banner if possible but it will automatically accept some or even all cookies and tracking if it is required for the site to function. And their choice if they accept some or all depends on "whichever is easier to do".
And functionality of the website could be social media or video embedding which might be "required for the site to function" in the eyes of the extension maintainers. But which will send data to Facebook, Google, and the likes. That could be okay depending on what your stance but a good thing to be aware of.
There is also a much more in depth blogpost by Stephen Wolfram about his work for this movie. I don't think it goes much more in depth on the language aspect but he tells a lot more about the process and questions he got from the movie creators.

But the Dutch state instance isn't meant to assert power over user content nor is it meant to influence any information shared. Normal people won't be able to create an account on that instance, so they cannot see what people view or limit what people create.
The reason for the instance is to have a government owned instance to share things that aren't limited by another 3rd party commercial company. Now the government is in control instead of meta or Twitter and they can't decide to, for instance, limit view access for everyone with no accounts one day. (Looking at you Twitter)
Another additional advantage is that all the official dutch government accounts are now grouped on an instance with limited and screened account creation. So now everything from that instance is verified to be from the Dutch government. Possibly reducing fraud and impersonating accounts in the future once people get used to the federated usernames.
Don't get your hopes up. Apparently the latest RoR2 expansion was made by the new Gearbox crew and that didn't work out so well...
