Yes, the real question is - to whom was it worth the effort? To imperialists that play for world resource domination - maybe. For people - no. On both sides - no.

Renault seems to be doing good with their new lineup. Stellantis on the other hand - not as much. I don't know of a single model of ev of theirs I would want to buy if I were rich enough to buy a new car. I thought maybe fiat grande panda, but it is priced exactly the same as Citroen EC3 and in that segment, it's not appealing to me at all. All of their cars share the platform with an ICE car, which includes the grande panda. They are simply not competing with Renault at this point. I hope 2CV will change that, but who knows when it's even gonna be available.

Yeah, remove it and put it somewhere safe for later, obviously. /s

Thanks, was wondering the same thing.

US is like a bully. But a huge, strong, armed bully, which is now also crazy and looks unpredictable. I doubt the rest of Nato, especially this castrated, limp EU would do anything to protect Canada. They would frown and condemn the us verbally, but probably watch from afar. That's my impression at least.

Whoa, where did January go this fast? But in all honesty, best guess would be 16 months, not 10.

2026? Are they mad? Renault and stellantis already have cheaper models, not to mention Koreans and Chinese. Very late to the party for VW.

I'd just like to add that the students/people have no official support from ANY EU, USA or Russian officials and, unlike with Milošević, are fighting this fight alone. It is going to be very hard to win. Opposing parties have been weakened and slandered throughout the years, so fair elections are currently not possible. Almost all media is still controlled by the regime, so chances of any alternatives arising are small. But there's no stopping now. I hope there won't be any (further) casualties, but some sort of physical confrontation is not going to be a huge surprise. So far, the students have resisted any violence and any provocation of it. Wish us luck.

Yes, but the amount he sacrificed is less than a pawn, if you were to compare it to chess. It's totally irrelevant that the guy is prime minister no longer, as it was just a phony position anyway.

Nah, not gonna happen. People think even this is a trick leading into new fixed elections and a try at dispelling the protests without consequences.

Yes, com ports work way better than in windows. I've done a lot of embedded development on linux and it's way more pleasant than in windows. One thing you do have to keep in mind is that access to com ports (USB and real) requires root access by default, but once you've set the udev rule up, it becomes accesible to normal users and/or group of users. After that, it works flawlessly. Android dev also works great and imo better than on win. Proprietary jtags may be an issue, but I've never actually had an unsolvable situation.

Yes no one cares, but then a big company announces they will not serve people in animal costumes. Then people go - makes sense, it's weird anyway. I've never seen a person in animal costume in person, not even as a mascot or on a kid's birthday. It's just not a thing here. And I'm from Serbia, it's provably even rarer in Moldova. I would find it weird if someone explicitly said they will deny them service. It's like denying service to dinosaurs, it's odd. It is a good cheap marketing though.
