Actual stupidity, or perhaps even more likely: Malevolence.

The US is run by no Intelligence whatsoever.

Fuck this guy. Seriously.

Apple be like: People want longer lasting batteries?? Naah, let’s give them blurry UIs instead.

Yes but probably minus the good aspects.

Eew, definitely not!

They did that with their Squeezebox range of media players.

wow I’m so shocked I can’t contain my excitement *yawn*

Does it get more clickbaity than this?

My home server is a refurbished HP t630 thin client with 8 gb of ram and a 1tb SSD. I’m running various services, Nextcloud-AIO being one of them. I bought it for € 35 plus the SSD and a 4 gb ram extension. I definitely do recommend used hardware as it is usually cheaper, more powerful and more environmentally friendly than buying something new. Wouldn’t trust a used SSD though.

I obviously don’t consider fossil fuels as an option. And I do doubt that it’s cheaper to build a nuclear plant compared do building a coal or gas fired one.

Storing something extremely dangerous extremely safely for “some hundreds of thousands of years” doesn’t exactly sound cheap, does it?

nb4 someone laughs at us Germans for pulling out of nuclear power: No, nuclear is not cheap. It’s literally the most expensive way to generate electricity. Solar is cheap and better for the environment.

It’s kinda handy if you don’t want to take the time to write a boring email to your insurance or whatever.

Betteridge’s law of headlines

What a headline…!

I already wondered if it’s a daily daily newspaper.

On top of this, tap water quality is way more regulated than bottled water is, in many places. (European POV)
