Tried upgrading the Bios and the firmware?

The tariffs are paid by the importers. It’ll negatively affect things in Canada.

Agreed, which is why it’s funny that certain crowds think gloves are magic.

Considering the cable was likely cut by just dragging the anchor over the seafloor, there’s not much to find.

Dropping an anchor isn’t done accidentally. There’s a pretty high risk for things to go wrong. Your assertion just doesn’t make sense. It isn’t “perfectly plausible” to drop anchor accidentally, nor is it to drag it for ages.

That’s the intention behind that back to work decision.

Wondering if you really meant that word or if it’s a typo.

A salary maximum (as per the article) of 79k USD per year seems low. This as the accident rate amongst longshoremen can be significantly higher than average. It’s often not reported on enough (at least in Europe) but significant injuries and deaths happen often enough. This partly because (obviously) a mistake has way more consequences on a terminal vs e.g. working in an office.

That’s a stupid way to eliminate efficiency

In case of port/terminal automation the workers usually do not benefit. So it seems pretty understandable that they’re against it.

In Europe there’s way more automation. Still, workers often tried to prevent it.

im qualified enough to know better

Maybe if you make YouTube videos you’d achieve that.

Regarding experts, there’s so many topics where experts are ignored.

Only for certain people, likely based upon race. The usual rules for some, not for others.

There are different type of smoke alarms. Some detect smoke. There are two ways of doing that. Near a kitchen area it’s usually best to get a completely different one that just uses changes in temperature. Though they will only notify you way matter. So highly recommend keeping the existing one and moving that one somewhere else.

McDonald’s is not consistent though. A hamburger can often be flimsy thin. I don’t get why you’d go there. There are enough fast food options with lower prices. McDonald’s is often really terrible.

A lot of that research isn’t done by these companies. Further, their marketing budget is often huge, the research budget is often lower than that.

Obviously, the EU hasn’t the spine to eject Hungary

There’s no way to remove a member. The EU could remove their voting rights, but Hungary used to be helped by Poland.

I wonder how many extra thousands of EU troops

There’s no EU army. There’s NATO, the EU countries have armies, but there aren’t any EU troops.

Interesting that Putin went to North Korea. Especially as he didn’t go there for 25 years. The meetings they had during this 25 years, NK had to go to Russia.

Anyway, more shells and do on for Russia is not good news. The support for Ukraine really needs to be stepped up.

You don’t know the Ape? It’s really everywhere in Europe.

I haven’t seen those in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany except maybe once in 5 years. Further, it’s seems not comparable. In Netherlands it likely wouldn’t be considered a car. It likely would fall under the max 45 kmh regulations.

Ah, so you can exclude gays. And that means:

Republicans don’t by default have anything against gays.

Because hey, every time they do everything against gays there’s an excuse! There’s been loads and loads of excuses over the years, but hey, they really don’t have anything against gays!

Jeez, done critical thinking would be good.

They say migrants, but mean asylum seekers. While actively encouraging as much as possible foreign workers for e.g. ASML. Asylum seekers only make up a tiny portion of the migrants. Knowledge workers however, …

Far right thrives on stuff like this.

Do more for the poor.

It’s really that simple.

Netherlands had a right wing government. They messed up greatly. People voted even more right because “obviously” the previous government was actually left wing.

Perception matters a lot for a large group of people.

And it’s funny because when certain parties make promises there interpretation differs depending if they like the party or not.

E.g. making promises to improve things: who will pay for it? E.g. left wing is spending money they don’t have, or they care too much about lazy people.

If a right wing party makes a promise to improve things and financially it is pretty much certain it’ll not work out: don’t be negative, just saying that because of x/y/z.

It’s too easy to blame left wing parties for what is happening. Pretty sure there’s various causes, and people often aren’t logical or rational.

In the EU any bank requires customers to use 2FA. Dutch customs requires critical logistics companies to use 2FA (amongst other stuff).

From what I recall critical companies must address likely methods to breach their security. It is highly likely that a company will get loads of attempts to check. Similarly, a critical company is expected to deal with employees leaving and ensuring their access is revoked.

From skimming they seem to say that there isn’t a breach because an account of an ex-employee was used. But that’s too easy, the processes sucked. The way they got in is just one of the things that some EU regulation requires critical companies to address. Same for perhaps not forcing customers to use 2FA. That’s crazy.

The EU is usually really slow in regulating things. If they got in using a method that the EU said you had to address then it means you had ages of time and nothing was done.

Really unresponsible. Especially as I think they seem be pretty critical part of the economy.
