A popup that says [Reject All] [Accept Necessary] [Accept All] is easy enough.

What actually happens is many sites just provide a full-blown cookie management UI that is so complex users just click on Accept All.

Prop 65: "The law protects the state's drinking water sources from being contaminated with chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm."

there must be more to your comment.

"malfunctioning phone-as-a-key functionality, a useless keyfob, a keycard that rarely worked quickly, constant phone connection issues, infotainment glitches and error messages"

is not needing the same functionality that the following provides:

"a Nvidia Drive AGX Orin-based core computer that has contains over 500 TOPS (Trillion Operations Per Second) of power, which Volvo says will help power its autonomous driving ambitions"

This is for lane assist, speed limit assist, auto-braking, follow mode, and other modern cruise control systems that many don't use.

This really should not be same computer (but I presume there is a VM here with static allocation) as the keyfobs, bluetooth, and especially the infotainment system.

I suspect the wireless module in the old computer board was crap (or otherwise poor motherboard design) and the new board fixes that, but also comes with the above features as a bonus.

Well in the UK the left lane can be used for straight forward too and it's not uncommon for a driver in the left lane to continue past an exit, whilst an impatient driver who is overtaking on the roundabout then tries to come off the roundabout into the other driver.

I don't think many US people know the sheer scale of roundabouts in the UK. They aren't rare. They aren't just common. They're everywhere. You won't pass your driving test in most areas without going on several. Larger or busier roundabouts have a lot of driver assistance (lane markings and lights) that assist drivers to get to their exit (a common layout is the lane markings spiral out to the exit lanes, so you don't need to change lane once you enter the roundabout on the correct lane.

But they're simple - they're one-way roads you are joining (so don't join if there's traffic) and equally leave for your exit (so indicate and get in the correct position).

Only 8% - because a lot of holidays were booked last year and people went ahead with them.

What they should be looking at is bookings for next year.

Recovery by 2029 seems like a pie in the sky hope.

You've missed off the slowly collapsing US dollar, internationally.

Trump will put the USA back 20 years, and as China was only about ten years behind, this will be an unrecoverable situation.

The complete failure of domestic political opposition is just icing on the cake.

There was no need for that either. All they had to do was explain it as the aliens realising that they were being attacked because of the networks and data warehouses and surveillance infrastructure and that they were going to destroy it to stop the counter attack. It was reasonable (as a basic alien invasion movie where they reasonably went straight for physical infrastructure immediately) right up to that 'they came for our datas' moment.

I watched it with the same lack of pre-checks.

The amount of context switching the guy does is quite stressful. Assuming the premise of an alien invasion and a guy in a top secret locked down government office that couldn't help his family but had top secret government spying/tech hacking stuff at his fingertips - running on windows no less, albeit IIRC an Athlon system from the reboot sequence so I guess budgets were constrained - I tried to suspend any disbelief (or take it as a warning about the future) and I could see why the family stuff was there. Couldn't suspend the disbelief about the roles his children had though, that was ludicrous.

Stock footage is given for any budget film, I could forgive that.

Amazed how quickly the media got hold of secret ops info, literally seconds!

The article shows that fibre rollout was massively limited by incumbent providers - BT OpenReach (i.e., the old monopoly BT who have that old monopoly mentality still!) and Virgin's cable network, and we all know what Virgin are like.

Once access to ducts was made mandatory, competitors (CityFibre, CommunityFibre) could rollout fibre without massive street works.

Note that older cities are far harder to bring up to speed with new technology than less dense newer cities.

But mainly fibre rollout is a political problem, and once politics sorts things out like access, then things can get moving.

Yeah, I barely use the site anymore because by default it does exactly what I don't want it to do. I want to see friend posts, in a timely manner.

What I get is mostly slop videos and trash, the odd friend post from sometime in the past week, etc.

Ah what you want is a video called "10 Hours of non-stop vibration resonance"

"One respondent said they sought permission to work from home after suffering multiple strokes that prevented them from driving. Amazon suggested moving closer to the office and taking mass transit, the person said in the survey. Another respondent said they couldn't drive for longer than 15-minute intervals due to chronic pain. Amazon's recommendation was to pull over and stretch during their commute, which the employee said was unsafe since they drive on a busy freeway... Amazon didn't dispute the accounts and said it considered a range of solutions to disability accommodations, including changes to an employee's commute."

Yes, making accommodations is something the EMPLOYER has to do, not dictate to the employee that they have to make the accommodations.

This should be a slam dunk in court.

Except this is Trump's fascist America we're talking about - any more complaints and the disabled people will be getting marched to a gas oven, and I don't write that glibly.

That'll be an interesting trip to the doctor in the future.

"Your bad cholesterol is high, I need you to start knocking back 4 pints of skullsplitter every day."

So this is again a trivial application in VB pCode that was translated.

It is impressive that it worked and ran first time, and also handled the embedded resources. It isn't taking a 20+ year old multifunctional complex enterprise executable and translating it however.

The entire thing reads l like an advert for ClaudeAI.
