There is legal lock out, and there is practical lock out. EU countries are going to be looking for other options for the 2% as well. Much of that 2% already doesn’t go to the US - there is paying soldiers. There are several different EU tank manufactures and other equipment. The EU is looking how they can bring some what is going to the US away even if it means worse equipment (that is buying 4th generation EU fighters instead of the 5th generation F35)
They still can’t build F35 and other things, so the I can still make enough money.
Not if the EU buys Griffons from Sweden. In that case the US I makes very little on that deal. The amount made stands to go down if the EU starts building their own jet engines (which they already build some), and computers. Sure today they are still making some money, but not near as much as if they sold the entire F35, and long therm the amount made stands to go down.
the MIC is not a single entity. The I part in the US is very big, but they are locked out of the deals in Europe. Thus the MIC in the US objects to this because it hurts them. Things they used to make a ton of money on in the US are things they are not making any money on at all.
https://www.home-assistant.io/installation/ Home assistant container - the version for docker - doesn’t support add-ons. If you go through a lot of effort you can make it work, but you won’t get help. (easiest is to install some linux in the docker and then home assistant supervised on top of that)
There is no reason HAOS couldn’t run just fine in a container (qemu not docker), but they intentionally detect that and break it (I tried, I probably could make it work but I don’t have that much time)
Home Assistant insists that it must run on bare metal hardware and will not work well. This is a purely artificial limitation that home assistant puts on you. You can work around it with a lot of effort, or the limitations might not matter to you, but it is a limit to be aware of. I personally went to OpenHAB instead, but YMMV.
Since you have Proxmox why would you switch? If you don’t like it, then by all means, there are lots of other options. However there is a good reason Proxmox comes up a lot. (I don’t personally use Proxmox so I don’t know those reasons, but the people who recommend it give every indication they are smart people who understand the problem and so I trust them enough to say it is a good option)
Best is a subjective question. There is no objective way to say what is best. We can argue about pros and cons. We can argue about what we prefer. However that is all subjective and there is no one best answer.
What do you call old? John Paul II was 58 (? - I can’t find the exact dates he took power so I might be off by a year depending on birthday) which is relatively young. He then remained in power for 27 years (again because I can’t find exact days I might be off by a year). Which as others have pointed out is a problem: that was 27 years where anyone (read cardinal) who didn’t like the current direction had no ability to do anything. IIRC the previous popes before him only served a few years and so there was concern that they hadn’t served long enough to be useful leaders and at the time someone who would be around longer was desired.
Of course if you are 20 58 seems really old. However when you get older it no longer seems old. With average lifespans of about 80, at 60 you still have 20 more years. OTOH, starting about 65 deaths from natural causes start taking off (younger than that death is nearly always an accident) . How do you want to define old?
The mic in the us objects as they are cut out of any deal.
The EU sends far less freight over rail than the US.
Trucks have limitations, but their door to door ability it a nice win for some applications. Trucks are not that much less efficient than trains when you account for door to door and differences in freight types.
California has done enough to kill that proejct even without Elon/Trump. For the amount of time and money invested they should be operating the entire line from San Diego to Oregon as of a few years ago.
As an American I’ve never heard of a place so dangerous that things get stolen from the back at a traffic light. I know carpenters who leave all their tools in the back when they go to bed and never have a problem. Maybe you need to clean up the crime problem in your country. There are pros and cons to a van vs truck. That you come in on one side does not make the other side wrong, it just means you have lack of vision to understand theirs.
Have you ever tried to rent a truck? I know many people who tried and discovered the place was all out that day. Then when you find one read the fine print - often you cannot haul your fridge in one. Mean while because I own my truck it is there when I need to do something, no thinking required.
A small block V8 weights 680lbs. While there are larger engines, that is still a big engine, most cars have much lighter engines. Transmissions have some weight too, So do electric motors.
Vehicles are expensive. Having one for each need is expensive. Renting is expensive (and renting typically comes with no using it as a truck restrictions). If you need a bed for 2% of trips it is often far cheap to own and drive a truck for everything. Particularly if you can use the bike for a lot of trips that makes just owning a truck for everything compelling if you must have a car.
A station wagon would be nice to see as well for a family hauler.
Kohls doesn’t have it always on sale. They carefully rotate stock each week to half their stuff is up front and on sale, while the other half is in the back at normal prices. The staff will direct you awat from the normal priced stuff - they don’t want anyone to pay the normal price, they just need to have it as normal price once in a while so they can claim to have a sale. (they fear if you buy the normal price you will be mad enough to not come back and repeat sales are worth more than one full price transaction)
Trains, and trucks. Trains can run from overhead wire but so far that has remained too expensive to be worth installing. Trucks are also significant and it isn’t clear what we should do about them (there are many options, but what it the right one isn’t clear)
There are a few people in the world who have no native language anymore because they forgot the language they were born using. Some of them are terrible in any language and so cannot be said to have a first language.
If someone is fluent in some second language is it fair to call them a native speaker - this is a philosophical question with no objective correct answer. Some would say yes, some will say no.
I have personally switched my answer over time - I started out with native is a strict definition and so you can’t be native if you were not born to it. These days the anti-immigrants are using that same argument and I’m in favor of open immigration, because native speaker is currently an issue I’m switching my position because previously it was a matter of naming that didn’t affect anything else, while now it is a political issue.
No real surprise to anyone watching the alternatives take over. Last year my utility told me that the previous year (ie 2023) they generated more power from wind than all customers combined used. California has been building a lot of solar. Texas leads the nation in wind, with Iowa and Kansas both having large installations. There is still a lot of room to go in transport, but for most people EVs would cover everything they do with minimal impact (on road trips they will still need long recharging times, but not unreasonably long) The writing has long been on the wall for most fossil fuels. Anyone who pays attention to the economic factors involved has long known this.
Most fossil fuels is not all. For sea and air transport we still don’t have a useful option. Long distance freight over land is possible, but requires large investments and it isn’t clear what is the best investment is. there are other industrial processes that still need fossil fuels. However the vast majority of energy the US uses today would be cheaper long term using renewable sources than the current ones and that is driving investment in switching.
I finally gave up. iiwant to keep in touch with what distant friends are doing. Finding and sharing memes is not doing something and that seems to be all I ever saw. Some people need to get a life. (unless you are confined to a hospital bed there are better things to eo with your life.) Too bad - I miss the rare contact with those distant friends.
Maybe, but the documentation says it can’t be done.
note too that I wasn’t running docker but instead a vm.
