Level 3 in the S-Class and EQS has been available since may 2022. And the speed limit is there because that is part of a UN regulation that the Mercedes is certified for. The regulation has been updated since the release of Mercedes Drive Pilot to allow speeds up to 140km/h but Mercedes needs to recertify for that.

America is the largest oil producer in the entire world

So, still no monopoly. Even IF we counted OPEC as “American OPEC monopoly” they together would only account for 50-60% of crude oil production. Far away from a monopoly, maybe you should read up on the term monopoly.

America controls …

And even then, OPEC most of the time acts against US interests. Crazy how big the “control” and influence the US has over these countries and OPEC then. They have so much control that even Russia is part of OPEC+ since 2016. AMERICA STRONK!

American OPEC monopoly

What the hell does that even mean? The USA aren’t even part of the OPEC¹, how are they supposed to be in the “OPEC monopoly”? Or do you mean Venezuela with America? And why monopoly? OPEC/ OPEC+ are only responsible for 30-40%² of crude production, that is a weird monopoly.

The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) was founded in Baghdad, Iraq, with the signing of an agreement in September 1960 by five countries namely Islamic Republic of Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and Venezuela. They were to become the Founder Members of the Organization.

These countries were later joined by Qatar (1961), Indonesia (1962), Libya (1962), the United Arab Emirates (1967), Algeria (1969), Nigeria (1971), Ecuador (1973), Gabon (1975), Angola (2007), Equatorial Guinea (2017) and Congo (2018).

…Together, Opec+ countries produce about 40% of all the world’s crude oil.

The most fun you can have on the Internet is correcting people who are wrong. So, today was a good and fun day. Thanks. ;)

Aluminium is typically used as is though

That would result in some shitty products. Aluminium is also mostly used as alloy, pure aluminium is pretty soft.

• What Phone manufacturer?
• What OS/ Version?
• When is that message displayed? When unlocking or in which app?
• What does the message say exactly?
• What mode of phone unlock is used?
• Got a screenshot of the message? Or even better a photo of the taped camera and phone with the message?

I use Binary Eye now, no ads, free and open source. It is built on zxing. I was a bit pissed when zxing scanner stopped working a few years ago. All the alternatives where ad infested crap back then.

Most Barcode scanners included in Android and iOS can’t read them though. I know at least for Data Matrix, only a few scanners can handle them.

It is possible. Maybe the peering from his ISP to YouTube is shit/ overloaded. That was an issue for Deutsche Telekom for a few years because Telekom didn’t want to pay for better peering. With a VPN it is possible to get good peering to your ISP and YouTube and in return faster load speeds.

I can’t speak for other countries, but since the article is about Germany: You have never heard of Netzentwicklungsplan, Südlink, Südostlink, Lastmanagement für Ladestationen and many more of these things? The Netzausbau (expansion of the power grid) and Lastmanagement (power distribution management) is pretty much a huge topic for all Netzübertragungsbetreiber and the other smaller power grid operators in Germany. Most of the development is slow at the moment because of bureaucracy and NIMBYs but it is actively being worked on.

October 2021. Not wishing for “good luck fighting the climate emergency.”

They did NOT toss coins for “good luck fighting the climate emergency.” Maybe some did, who knows. It was not a collective wish for something, just a stage for a nice group photo.

From the Yahoo article: “Of course the wishes can’t be revealed to anyone if they are to become true - so who knows what British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, French President Emmanuel Macron, outgoing German Chancellor Angela Merkel wished for.”

Newer studies show that the intake of aluminium through your skin is very low and that there is no increased risk to your health. The risk from aluminium in food is higher.

Link to a PDF of the SCCS (Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety, European Commission): https://health.ec.europa.eu/system/files/2021-11/sccs_o_235.pdf

Conclusion: “… The SCCS considers that the systemic exposure to aluminium via daily applications of cosmetic products does not add significantly to the systemic body burden of aluminium from other sources. Exposure to aluminium may also occur from sources other than cosmetic products, and a major source of aluminium in the population is the diet. This assessment has not taken into account the daily dietary intake of aluminium.”

There’s also the ad removal option for 20$ one time. If you don’t need the other features of ultra.

Even better: an antiperspirant. It significantly lowers sweat production on the applied area.

And every little thing on the screen makes a noise.
