At a minimum it increases your cognitive capacity. You may forget all about it, but you trained your brain, which is always a win.

Apparently not

What kind of moronic idea is this? How does giving away the most coveted technology help Europe in any way?

In order to forget, one must first have remembered something, so probably no.

Yeah, for the EU, China will have to open up its economy for open and fair competition, get rid of its IP sharing requirements and stop manipulating the Renminbi to keep it artificially low. Even then it should be quota based to stop them from dumping practices to take out local competitors.

Not expulsion, there is no mechanism for that. Voting right suspension and no cohesion funds are the maximum punishment possible under the EU constitution. That would require ratification by all other members though, so as long as there is one government (Slovakia being the most likely) blocking that, not much happens. That wouldn't make the point moot to take those steps. Governments change and the groundwork can already be laid for it, or pressure piled on the blocking countries.

There is no way that will happen. Zuck bet large on Trump precisely for stuff like this. The FTC will be disbanded if they try to force this. More likely is that whoever doesn't do Trumps bidding will be fired until they find someone who does.

And then what? He will just ignore them, then stack the courts if not simply replace the SC judges. Who is going to stop him at this point? He got away with every single crime in his life, of which there are too many to count. He's ignoring court orders and ruling by illegal executive orders. Nothing but an armed insurrection is going to stop him now.

This ship has sailed and won't change course without a mutiny.

Ban engagement driven algorithms!

This graph probably not, but it's one of the reasons why south east asian countries like Vietnam also got slapped with hefty tariffs. Not to mention the nefarious Penguin Kingdom.

Yes

Trump can raise them to 1000% and China won't care too much. It will hurt, sure, but China has all the cards. They've been preparing for this since Trump v1.0 and know exactly where to hit the US. And they have already proceeded with a surgical strike you don't read much about. It's not a tariff increase, it's more a bureaucratic measure. They sent all US buyers of certain rare earth metals required for high tech electronics to the back of the queue of buyers. Not an outright block, just "extra investigation" required before rubber-stamping the export, indefinitely if need be.

Given his tendency to just play with whichever golf ball has the best position, whether it's his or not, I would say he probably won.

That's not even a joke: https://uproxx.com/sports/donald-trump-course-golf-championship-stole-childs-ball/

On f1tv they recalled the 2013 Japanese grand prix where Grosjean in the lotus vs two red bulls was the exact same situation as today Verstappen vs the McLarens, but RB got the strategy right and both cars passed Grosjean. They pitted one early and one very late, forcing Lotus to cover one or neither, as covering both was impossible. The pitstop window was laps 19-25, Verstappen pitted on lap 22, smack in the middle trying to cover both. Piastri had already pitted so Norris had to go long and pit in lap 25 or 26. But they botched the strategy, Piastri got stuck behind Norris and neither got past Max.

Our tabbie cat loves biting my wifes ankles when she is working, preferably when she's in a meeting and talking. We call her (the cat) little Satan for a reason.

That web page is asking for camera access for some reason...

It's quite easy actually. Just google linux surface and you will find the project website where they list all surface models and potential issues with installation guidelines. I have a pro 8. The only thing not working are the cameras as nobody has figured out the drivers yet.

Edit: Project GitHub page https://github.com/linux-surface/

I wonder what the white houses april fools joke will be. Probably something along the lines of "We're sending humanitarian aid to Myanmar" or something tone-deaf like that

Now look at what you did!! The time-space continuum is ruined and we have oompa loompas with long necties wrecking the geopolitical and economical landscape!
