How about we coin a term today, "LEDlighting"? (Pronounced Led-Lighting).

"When a digital platform's state is altered in an opaque way without input on the user's behalf that directly commanded it to, and as a result causes them to question reality in the form of either their memory, the actual state of the system itself, or whether or not the system was intentionally made to do it by an unseen human."

Shadowbans, whether you think they're a good form of moderation or not, would be an example of LEDlighting.

In a game if the chat system stops working but the rest of the game works and everyone thinks they have been muted for some unknown infraction of the rules by an overreaching moderator, that's also LEDlighting.

I suggest obtaining a copy of Windows 10 LTSC, much better stability and no mandatory updates/forced reboots. Might make it a bit more reliable.
One thing I'm very happy to see on their configuration page is the choice of keyboard layout.

It feels like most companies assume that you must want the standard layout for the country you're currently living in, when personally I just want a us layout.

Do wish they had some more options for the display, but still looks like a pretty compelling and reasonably priced product.
I agree 100%, material conditions are the initial cause, but that outside the affected area that simply causes disaffection - terrorist propaganda directs that disaffection towards killing civilians. Given that far right radicals are created by the material conditions of late capitalism and misdirected towards hating minorities by propaganda, the only thing we can really do about that (aside from trying to change those conditions, which we should already be doing) is to try to avoid them being contacted by fascists looking to utilise their anger.

Not true. At all. Fossil fuels represents the accumulation of green energy reserves over millions of years. We cannot beat that with the green energy of just today or tomorrow.

Whatever green future awaits us, it will be much less convenient then the days of the past.
Of course it's political. Schroeder went with Greens for various reasons - some of them include his voters being coal miners on verge of protests. Others may be connected to him being on board of the Gazprom.
Looks very similar to the TUXEDO Pulse 14, to the point that I'm wondering if it's the same OEM. I've been using the only Pulse for a while now, it's okay.

Though I basically only use it plugged in to external everything and frankly would prefer to use a desktop computer, so I guess even after a few months I can't say whether it's a good mobile device.

I looked at the nautical charts for Black sea[0]. It looks like the area near Odessa is quite shallow (less than 100m (~300ft) deep). I'll hazard that it was a total loss from a get go, but they towed it just far enough to be able to let it sink to deeper waters (like 1000+ m deep (~ 3000ft)).

1) No one expected them to be so weak and miserable. Note that every western analyst gave it at most 3 days (some might have said 7, but no one said more) before Kyiv would fall. Note also that even over a month into the invasion, and it making no progress, the narrative in western circles was that it was a result of a temporary logistics problem and/or using conscripts as cannon fodder. The professionals would come anytime soon and then Kyiv would be taken.

2) Nukes.

3) Even though the Russian military appears increasingly incompetent, they are still capable of creating immense damage and destruction.
> It was cynical political calculation to go for the cheapest energy source, global warming be damned.

Are you talking about the US who went all in on gas for its electricity production or Germany that replaced nuclear power with renewables? And France, the Hacker News nuclear energy utopia, is struggling year-round with its electricity production, but that is easy to ignore if you have no clue what you are talking about.

Also, let me give you a brief history lesson, because Americans like to rewrite it: The US was never tough on Russia. Bush was a Putin fanboy like Schröder. When Schröder called Putin a "perfect democrat", Bush looked into Putin's eyes and saw his soul. And speaking of good advice: That was a time when Germany and the rest of Continental Europe asked the US not to start Iraq war. The US did not appreciate that kind of advice and considered Continental Europe some terrible allies.

These were the early 2000s, there was a thing called the war on terror. Now Americans claim that it was clear as a day that Russia (who also opposed the war and seemed to steadily prosper) was the real enemy back then, and Germany should have bought more ethically-sourced oil and gas from the region with the lack of human rights, the never ending wars and the state-sponsored terrorism, and not from the guy who speaks of brotherhood in fluent German - that would have been the right decision of course!

Anyway, after Bush came Obama, who also treated Russia with baby gloves. The US had no shame to give Lavrov the symbolic reset button months after Russia resetted Georgia - a country that hoped for US support. Remember Obama's "Let me do you favors in my second term" mic leak with Medvedev? Was any of that controversial in America? Not at all. Americans laughed at Mitt Romney when he called Russia the enemy. Biden summed it up in 2015:

> All of us, we all invested in a type of Russia we hoped - and still hope - will emerge one day: a Russia integrated into the world economy; more prosperous, more invested in the international order.

And it doesn't stop here. Americans went and elected the biggest Russian puppet in history. The guy who publicly said he trusts Putin more than his three-letter agencies. Now Putin enjoys a popularity among Americans that would make the old red-scare republicans spin in their graves. On top of that, the US had an ever increasing oil trade with Russia - after they annexed Crimea.

But one time Donny with his "America first! Screw NATO and screw the EU!" stance (which totally doesn't benefit Russia) told German diplomats in one of his incoherent speeches that they are too reliant on Russian gas, after they banned US companies from fracking in their densely populated country and can you believe it, the diplomats laughed!?
I wouldn't be surprised to hear that those being thrown under the bus have mysteriously "committed suicide" by shooting themselves in the back five times before jumping off a bridge or driving head on into a tree with no brakes, so they wouldn't talk.
I never had problems with USB-A ports but I'm not using them much. All my laptops had barrel ports and I'm not using external keyboard or mice. A USB-B port started to get loose on a phone of mine after 6 years of use. I didn't use any USB-C port for more than 4 years yet. They look sturdier but time will tell.
I do entertain a faint hope that the rot has also infected Russia's nuclear arsenal, rendering some noticeable fraction of it inoperable or otherwise inert, but not enough to act on it.
> My advice is to try out the trackpad on a laptop before you buy it if this is something that matters to you, not trust the opinions of Internet strangers.

This really applies to most products, especially those that you interact with so frequently and directly. It's one reason that in the EU you have a 14-day "right of withdrawal" for all purchases made at a distance (most commonly being internet purchases).

It's become clear to me that a lot of us who grew up during the cold war, kept thinking that Russia was still as much of a threat as the Soviet Union was, which is why so many of us are surprised at this turn of events.

But the Soviet Union fell thirty years ago, an entire generation ago. The Soviet Union had 280 million people, more than the US had at the time. Big. Scary. But Russia today has only 140 million people. Over half the population just up and left when given the chance. They said "thanks, but no thanks" to Moscow.

Sure, Russia still has a big military budget, but their GDP isn't that great. Their GDP is much smaller than Italy's, alone. Smaller than France's, alone. Smaller than Germany's, alone. Hell, even the five Nordic countries have a higher combined GDP than Russia has. Growing up in the Nordics during the cold war meant having to think about Russia as an enormous big bad who could crush us completely if they wanted to. But now, our combined economies are larger.

Russia is corrupt, and has been corrupt for an entire generation. And it's been corrupt on a scale that is unprecedented compared to itself in the past, and compared to the rest of Europe. We complain about the military-industrial complex and how much waste there is, but military contractors in the west actually deliver stuff, whereas all the corrupted half-assery of the Russian military is being exposed now.

The combined defence budget of the EU is about 4 times larger than Russia's. Since the end of the cold war, the EU has been prosperous, peaceful, and happy. We've invested in our defence and grown stronger over the last thirty years, while Russia has declined.

We in the EU have over three times the population, over four times the military budget, and ten times the GDP of Russia. We have nukes and tanks and aircraft carriers and submarines and stealth fighters of our own. And yet so many still view Russia as a threat, as a bigger and stronger foe.

This debacle sure has been eye-opening to me, and I hope it's been that way for everyone else stuck in the cold-war mentality.

Yes. And it's fine to consider this a problem, and criticize them for it, is my point.
These Europeans are coming out of a phase of almost no perceived threat, so they have to increase spending even if they don't think the Russians are very good.

Plus you have to plan for the adversary being better than what you have evidence for, that's just prudent.

My impression is that the UN is a place where all nations come together to negotiate and communicate.

Kicking nations out or overriding their vote would defeat the purpose as this would trigger several of them to leave the organization and turn it into a Western club. A “world police” does not exist, nor is it attainable. No world power will accept any foreign court to decide on its fate, as can also be seen from who’s vetoing what in the UN.

Furthermore, other countries have certainly taken note of the actions of the US, EU and allies and their attempt to impose their will on other countries. While that may be morally correct, I assume that it will be politically very problematic especially in relation to China.

All in all a poor article. It’s incredibly hard to get quality information on this war.

Wherever you are, that's where the world is. Do what you think increases harmony while giving you some kind of flow. It's likely there are people right in your back yard who could use some help. All there is to remember to make sure you are increasing harmony (to a good approximation) is that people are ends in themselves, and not means to ends.
It’s in the interest of everyone to keep communication channels open between superpowers and even lesser powers.

1. Russian military performs worse than was expected by western experts but still has enough explosives to flatten out large swaths of land - as we see they don't care at all about collateral damage or outright target civilians as an easy prey.

2. NATO military was not really tested in full scale combat and can perform worse than expected too.

Russia seems to be much weaker than expected but definitely they are not harmless. Ukraine fared much better than expected but they have seen enormous destruction on their lands.

Also, Europe was depending on the idea that if you integrate Russian economy with the Western economy there wouldn't be reason to wage wars, just the way EU integrated historic enemies into completely peaceful union therefore there's no need to maintain large armies. Unfortunately, the method that works for EU countries doesn't work for Russia(too corrupt? too autocratic? too eastern mentality? who knows) and as a result European countries now increase their budgets for their defence.

I think it's tragic. Would have been much better if Russians sent their gas as Europe gradually transitions into renewables and Europe sent their produce to Russians and improve their lives as they diversify their economy as the fossil energy is phased out. It should have worked, EU definitely tried make it work.
Trump is a toxic individual that used the platform to bully and lie. His lies about Covid got his followers to avoid the vaccine and some died. His lies about the election undermine democracy.

USB-A (or quasi-USB-A) charge ports on laptops were a weird abberation for a while. I had a dell with that, and it's now one of the few laptops I've got that I might never be able to power on properly again because the power delivery over the port is 100% proprietary and the AC adapter for it is busted. I don't think there's ever been a high wattage PD standard for USB-A? Even with USB3. So any version of it was just some manufacturer's attempt to jump the gate on PD over USB-C.

USB-C is a completely different ballgame here. It has its flaws but it's nothing at all like that weird little era of laptops.

I bought the first ZBook 15 in 2014. I'm running Ubuntu 20.04 on it now. One of the reasons I got that laptop was the physical buttons, plus on site next day support. Too bad for the 16:9 screen and I absolutely hate the numberpad. I don't have any use for it and it puts all the keyboard off axis. It's a world of compromises.

>The combined defence budget of the EU is about 4 times larger than Russia's. Since the end of the cold war, the EU has been prosperous, peaceful, and happy. We've invested in our defence and grown stronger over the last thirty years, while Russia has declined.

Simple. The EU is not military united but it's pretty much a "every man for himself" kind of thing outside of NATO or a direct attack, but the EU or NATO is currently not under attack so some people see Ukraine as "more of you problem than a me problem"… so other than sending some aid to Ukraine most people don't want to go to war with Russia or suffer crippling energy shortages for Ukraine.

EU leaders are also not immune from kleptocratic greed and external and internal corruption.

Austria is more than happy to keep pumping money into Russia in exchange for cheap gas, as that gas runs 80% of their industry, and several elite Austrian politicians were given top jobs on boards of Russian oil and gas companies to lobby for them and against nuclear or other alternatives, or have straight up offered their support to Russian oligarchs in under-the-table business deals ( the infamous "Ibiza scandal").

Good luck replacing that gas on a whim after several decades of Russian lobbying that lead to the current status quo.
Russia still has the sheer numbers. Wikipedia lists

They only deployed less than 100k in Uraine, and it's tied one of the largest armies in Europe.

Europe hasn't had an army to speak of for decades (and for a good reason). So "doubling military expenditures" for most of Europe is "going from nearly zero to slightly more than zero".

> air campaigns against anything remotely "dual-use" and the massive civil casualties that would follow.

They don't have to be "pushed". They have been basically doing that since the war started.

In Ukraine a nuclear power station was recently shelled with artillery.

If a power station was shelled in Germany what measures would avoid an exclusion zone?

And to be clear, there are plenty of groups that would deliberately cause an issue exclusion zone.

European countries are ramping up expenditure simply because Russia has increased instability in Europe and they can't be trusted to uphold their treaties anymore. While its military has been embezzled into oblivion by the elite, Russia still has one of the largest standing armies.

Moreover, lots of proper military research projects have been done. It's the actual production where they run into the corruption bottleneck: that could be solved and the giant might awaken.

>f) Because long-term storage of nuclear waste is still not properly solved.

>g) Because mining nuclear materials is an ecological disaster. Also, guess who's a big exporter of uranium in Europe? Russia.

These are real problems, however I've seen people state that they are entirely results of political decisions that could be revoked.

That's because the reactor waste can be recycled to make more power, reducing the fuel and the waste problem tremendously.

I guess that there are conventional excuses not to, something about proliferation of weapons-grade nuclear material.

But I don't understand why this matters if climate change is real and lots of countries have nuclear weapons anyway. Though I suppose not Germany.

> Framework are so far the only ones in this market segment who have ever marketed >1080p laptop displays AFAIK.

This is weird to me because I feel like I have the opposite problem. I don't want retina displays I derive no joy from and that eat more power for that lack of joy, never mind cause problems with differential scaling if I plug into a lower res desktop screen. I find I can't get high quality laptops that don't force me to have a too-high density screen.

I have settled for the framework because everything else about it is perfect for me, but I kind of hope someday they sell a replacement non-hidpi screen for it and I will very much buy it. The possibility of those kinds of choices down the line is why I bought into it.

> There was some corruption in Soviet Union ... but if[sic] was not fatal

It was actually fatal. I've studied the corruption that emerged under the Soviets; it was systemic and, in fact, necessary to mitigate the crippling adversities created by Soviet ideology. It is the primary reason the Soviet Union collapsed 30 years ago.
