    Tariffs are paid by the importer so it will just make your feeds more expensive to import to your device.

    They are just trying to stuff you with equation of "rejecting unsubstantiated authority and propaganda" (which is a subset of nihilism similarly to rejection of other unsubstantiated things) to "sowing chaos and destruction of society". BTW, chaos is beneficial for any society. Chaos is how they evolve and find exits out of deadlocks. And rid themselves of degeneracy, which always flourishes on top, because those on top are subject to negative selection. Honestly the whole article is absolutely disgusting police boot licking piece of crap, of the "nothing to hide" and "the law is sacred even if made illegally" and "don't question demands" kind. Except, of course, it's wrapped into the boy being "anti-LGBTQZPN" and "accelerationist-extremist", which is pretty normal, Israeli and Turkish propaganda too uses these in the way of "look, we allow gay parades and have something appearing like western democracy, so we are good, and our victims are not like that". OK, so the description probably is just about a kid with some disorders who got burnt out from the idiots surrounding him. Every time you hear "he was normal and had meaning in life and we understood him and then he got depressed and closed", it's probably just that - ran out of spoons to play along to mouthbreather family thinking they understand everything. The things surrounding it - I think they are good. Between loyalty to entrenched non-transparent authority and rebellion with neo-Nazi symbols I'd choose the latter 10 times of 10. Also when "accelerationist" means that the institutions have already decayed and it's better to break them before they've born more monsters - I agree with that. I thought the same when I was 15 and realized that democracies around us are not real in the sense that they were even in 1950s. But, of course, if we assume the article is deliberate propaganda, one can suggest that this is the intended second layer - to make you more sympathetic to such ideology.

    That show was so fuckin stupid. But also weirdly wholesome. Nary a jot of creep shit for the whole run. I was genuinely surprised.

    They use adiabatic coolers to minimize electrical cost for cooling and maximize cooling capacity. The water isn't directly used as the cooling fluid. It's just used to provide evaporative cooling to boost the efficiency of a conventional refrigeration system. I also suspect that many of them are starting to switch to CO2 based refrigeration systems which heavily benefit from adiabatic gas coolers due to the low critical temp of CO2. Without an adiabatic cooler the efficiency of a CO2 based system starts dropping heavily when the ambient temp gets much above 80F. They could acheive the same results without using water, however their refrigeration systems would need larger gas coolers which would increase their electricity usage.

    It's not just tax credits for new cars, they are also getting rid of the Used EV Tax Credit which has helped to keep the prices of used EVs (relatively) lower.

    which one would sell more I mean they would charge a lot of money for the stripped down one because it doesn't allow them to monetize it on the back end, and the vast majority would continue using the resource-slurping ad-riddled one.
