May I ask why? I’ve never felt it was really a necessary feature.

I love scam posts. They just make me all warm and fuzzy inside!

And not because of the clearly scammy nature of it all, but mostly because it means that there are sufficient users of Lemmy to make it worthwhile to try and scam 🥰

So, thank you Matrecovery and RaymondBucks079, for letting us all know that the lemmy is infact well and truly alive.

Thanks for pointing this out. It is imperative that people understand the reality of the energy transition and move away from the spotty doomsday or otherwise reporting on the topic.

Yeah the requirements are for USB-C power delivery for devices capable of charging @ (if I remember correctly) > 15W.

The requirement was placed in the radio equipment directive of the EU so unlikely they will amend it to add requirements for USB-C cabled data transmission.

They did 2 things well (from an economic perspective) in my vaguely shit memory:

• built of the success of castaway a few years earlier and survivor
• marketed the absolute hell out of it pre-release. I remember hundreds of ads showing in the months leading to to it.

It paved the way for a lot of long running, high budget tv shows like heroes, supernatural etc…

I also severely disliked it.

While I think your comment is over simplifying the issue, there is strangely little mention that people’s animosity toward Musk are responsible for the downturn. Tesla used to be almost the only premium EV available, now there are significant numbers of competitors.

Additionally, there are too many people with similar views to him in Europe to consider it purely a revolt against him
