They way I see it this is the less important part of the regulation so saying that manufactures are just ignoring the rules set by EU is alarmist and clibaity. Same thing happened with GDPR: there was a mess with consent popups, some companies ignored the requirements, EU started giving out fines and things improved. I wouldn’t expect anything different here. So far we’re talking about sticker requirements. Now that the law requires manufacturers to actually provide replacement parts we have to let EU enforce them and things should improve.

I don’t think politicians set this law to fail on purpose. The alternative would be to create some certification authority which would add a lot of red tape. This could turn out to be a good compromise. We’ll see.

Looks delicious. And I like how the coke offsets the calories in chips. Nice, balanced diet.

slop /slŏp/ noun Unappetizing watery food or soup

Not all slop is AI slop.

I follow news in Poland and Spain and war in Ukraine is getting much more attention in Poland than in Spain. Why do you think is that?

I think that if you can get in trouble by watching something like this at work you should not be browsing internet at work.

I see no one bothered to read the article…

It complains about requirement to list prices or spare parts on a website. 80% of phone labels don’t include a URL to that websites. Looks like they are meeting other requirements and the article only complains about the missing URL. So saying that “makers don’t bother to comply” is a misleading clickbait.

The requirement was only to include this URL but since most of those manufacturers most likely don’t offer replacement parts they didn’t set up websites that list them.

Now, starting July 2026 they actually do have to sell replacement parts. As a consumer you have the right to request them and if those are not provided you can file a complaint. My guess is this will be rolled out slowly and will take some complaining and fining to reach 100% compliance. So… familiarize yourself with your rights and file complaints when needed.

But they require dark room. Where I live in summer it gets dark at 23:00 so you need great curtains or you can’t see anything most of the day. If you have curtains you have to watch everything in complete darkness. This is fine for a movie night but people like to watch news or watch a game with their friends over some food. You also need extra device to handle apps like Jellyfin. Things like BT can be more complicated to set up (my TV handles multiple BT devices nicely).

Projectors are basically great for one or two things (home theater and gaming) but are bad for everything else.

What emb said. When in the history of the universe did consumers reject a product like that? You do realize Alexa and Google speakers are still very popular and tons of people wear watches with GPS, sleep tracking, heart rate tracking and always turned on BT?

Thanks. I’m not a great cook but this looks simple enough. I will give it a try.

It’s honestly better to just have a bare wall and a projector.

From a privacy point of view: yes. From every other: not so much.

You’re all just jealous.

I think that’s Epstein.

Can you share the recipe?

I almost did the same but settled on 64GB :`(

You may want to install F-Droid to get applications graphically. Or use the Play Store if you installed a GAPPS image.

Still depends on Play Store.

Because he could be mentally ill and should not be shamed for it?

To fund the datacenter or to fund infrastructure expansion needed for the datacenter?

But how can you have any opinions if some celebrity doesn’t constantly tell you what to think?

Not in UK but way ahead of them. I have canned food for couple of days and stockpile of rice, pasta, lentils and such. From camping equipment I have couple of gas stoves (with gas, of course) and water filter. I have a barrel full of rain water and some bottled water as well. I could probably stay inside for a week comfortably or 2-3 with some rationing.
