"Like many European carmakers, it has been squeezed by fresh tariffs on its exports to the United States"
VW ranked 16th on the 2026 Consumer Report reliability ranking, has no hybrid models currently available in a market that is currently clamoring for hybrids and poor software that has hampered both their gas and ev models. While I'm sure tariffs have had an affect there are many more self-inflicted wounds causing them issues in the US market. I just purchased a new car on Tuesday and didn't consider a VW because of the reasons stated above which is sad because in the past I have owned a couple of VW cars including my first car a VW Golf.
If AI is going to be regulated those regulations should be debated in public and based upon the resulting laws passed by the legislative process and not determined by royal decree.
This is ridiculous. Either this is a vital child safety requirement that needs to apply to operating systems regardless of origin or it isn't and shouldn't apply to any operating system.
My daughter is an architecture student and needed a 3d printer to help with making models for her studio class. She had no desire to learn the ends and outs of 3d printers. She wanted something easy to use and reliable. The Bambu Labs printer I bought her has been just that.
Nationalized healthcare systems can reap the longterm savings from preventive care. I have had 4 different for profit insurance companies over the last 5 years because of job changes, my employer switching insurance providers and retirement. Such frequent changing of health insurance providers means that there is no guarantee that any insurance company will reap the benefit of providing me with better preventative care than required by law.
If they are drivers for devices from the last century which nobody even uses anymore why keep them in the kernel when they, as shown by LLMs, are potential sources of security vulnerabilities? Seems more logical to take the action being taken and remove them.
To get to my home you take an exit off a toll road and where the exit splits continuing straight or going to the right you continue straight to a stop light where you take a left and in 1/4 mile take a right into my neighborhood. Apple Maps will tell you to go to the right instead of going straight merging on the road and continuing through 2 stop lights, taking a u-turn at a 3rd light and then backtracking to take the right into my neighborhood. Google Maps gives the correct directions.
In the closest major city Apple Maps will give directions instructing you to perform u-turns on streets where u-turns are legal but practically impossible. Google Maps will instead correctly direct you so such risky u-turns are not needed and you actually arrive quicker.
That is just two examples. I have many more I could provide.
Respectfully the scenario you want to present seems to change. The title you submitted this under doesn’t have any mention of switching, firewalls, dhcp server or WiFi access point.
Then the actual title of the article mentions routing and switching but not a firewall, dhcp server or WiFi access point. Then at the end you seem to change the goal to being a WiFi router but really you have presented more steps than required for that. You have also setup switching, a firewall and a dhcp server which are not required to be a router with WiFi access point.
There were also PC compatible systems based around ISA backplanes. This was especially common for industrial computers but Zenith/Heathkit made ISA backplane based systems for the business and consumer markets. I own a Zenith Z-160 luggable computer from 1984 which uses an 8 slot 8-bit ISA backplane. 1 slot is occupied by a CPU card which also has the keyboard connector. My system has 2 memory cards which each provide up to 320k along with a serial and parallel port. Zenith sold a desktop version of this as the Z-150. They later released models based upon 16-bit ISA backplanes. I think but am not sure of the top of my head that the last CPU they produced a 16-bit card for was the 486.
I don’t have an EV and will not purchase one anytime soon. I would be interested in purchasing an extended range hybrid. I’ve had this discussion with many of my friends and most are not ready to purchase an EV but like myself are interested in a plug-in hybrid. A 100 range allow for all my local driving to be electric and I could still do my long range driving without adding the additional time for charging. I do drives of 9 - 13 hours at least 8-10 times a year and some years more often. Those drives are already long enough. I don’t want to add the additional time charging takes. Over that long of a drive the time adds up.
There is no legal requirement to show id or answer any questions to establish identification before flying. In other words there is no extra work required by law which the fee would cover.
I have been unable to find a SSH app for iOS that I like since I switched from Android. Just one of many reasons I will be switching back to Android for my next phone.
The article mentions a one time tax charge which resulted in the reduction in profits but doesn't explain the context of the tax charge. Likely because it doesn't fit the narrative the author tried to create. Qualcomm chose to take a one time non-cash tax charge of $5.7 billion to take advantage of changes in the tax code which were part of the Big Beautiful Bill enacted last year. By taxing the charge their effective tax rate and cash tax payments moving forward will be reduced. In other words they traded short term profits for increased long term profits. Meta similarly took a $15.9 billion charge for the same reason. Many other companies have already done the same or are expected to. Especially those which have large R&D investments.
They didn't mess up badly. They choose to take a one time non-cash tax charge of $5.7 billion which will allow them to take advantage of a recent change in tax law to achieve a lower effective tax rate and lower cash tax payments going forward. Meta did something similar taking a $15.9 billion non-cash tax charge to take advantage of the same changed tax laws. Many other companies have already or are expected to do the same.
If you have a PowerBook with SCSI support you can use a BlueSCSI v2. Besides emulating SCSI storage devices it can emulate a Dynaport SCSI/Link network device to allow wifi connectivity for Macs running classic Mac OS. https://bluescsi.com/docs/WiFi-DaynaPORT
NetSarang Computer has been offering a commercial ssh client named Xshell since the mid 2000s. They have a copyright on the name. You may want to consider renaming the project to avoid potential future issues.
