Same here at 52 degrees, the evenings feel so much more useful when the sun is out than in winter when it is dark, an hour extra sun would be massive. So I am wondering what the percentages for these preferences are, is t 50-50 split or is

You see electric Volvo's everywhere in the more electrified markets in Europe like Norway and the Netherlands. Especially the smaller models like the ex30 and ex/xc40. They fit very well design-wise and I think software quality w

It is not a model, it is "just" using openstreetmap labels.

In europe the connections are a lot lower amperage, around here for example 35 ampere per phase. But having 3 phases is pretty normal and the standard in any new house, which means 3 phases can let you charge at 22kW with a few Ampere left,

I don't think you understand: It has to be USB-C or better. So if USB-D (or a worse name knowing the consortium) comes out, the idea behind the law is that it should also be allowed _instead_ of a USB-C port. IANAL though, so I am unsu

They are more and more working on doing the separation at the garbage company though instead of at the source. Generally the reason for this that that consumers aren't very consistent in the separation and a few mistakes makes the whol

But it is also extremely easy to filter out aluminium from the general waste stream, so no real need to separate them, especially as the average consumer is not very consistent.

In Europe it is also likely the plastic packaging industry that's mostly paying for it as its cheaper for them to make it seem like plastic packaging can be recycled, that it is to get regulated to not cause so much waste. A more gener

Any application that uses certificate pinning would fail in this situation as that's specifically what it is trying to prevent.

Because all the natives pay using Debit cards, so it is only foreign visitors that have this problem, and stores in the really touristy parts do support credit cards. I am pretty sure that contactless payments around here do all support cre

From the neighbors in the Netherlands: it is interesting to see these local differences as at least in my circles you don't need to get married to become part of the in-laws or other social circles. Really, most couples I know really o

Hmm, living in the Netherlands, in Europe, it seems the reverse in my social circle. People mostly see it as a personal choice they make because they don't see the point, with other legal possibilities also being available. Looking aro

That's the main revenue stream of Google it would pretty much mean Google itself would be forbidden. The EU gives companies the option and only requires all this hoopla if you want to use the data for something else than the user reque

Google is an advertising network, they don't need to sell the IP to make money. It's on the original website to prove that they only use your data for what you asked them to, if you want to do anything else, you need to request in

Under the GDPR, an IP address is personally identifiable data, so you can't leak it. And for someone with masses of extra data like Google it is enough to identify who is doing the browsing, so this isn't some crazy overreach.

We can if we want to, but right now it is totally voluntary and so left up to brands that want to look good, but also not pay too much extra. If a block like the US or EU suddenly puts a whole lot of strong regulation on the coffee market,

Its pretty much pointless though, if you can't move all your revenue to an ip holding company, you just have to make it slightly more realistic. In case of Starbucks: they move a ton of their profit to a coffee bean exporter from Switz

What exactly should they pay tax on? AFAIK, most countries like the US go for a tax on profits, but profits of a multinational country are extremely hard to "locate", as in: in which country was the profit made? Some obvious examp

Those RFIDs make it possible to not just scan them when the article gets bought, but also to very easily scan the inventory of the whole store by just walking through the store with a scanner. Just as useful, although currently still more l

Especially as all these "mild" hybrids have enough of a battery to move the centre of mass so far down that they are lower than older sedans. This is why Teslas won so many safety awards at the start: they were pretty much unrolla
