But why not display the capital, especially when it has higher prices than The Hague?

Clearly you meant:

string = "foobar"
length = 0
_ = [length += 1 for _ in string]
print(length)

Much more readable!

Edit: Damn, doesn't work, was hoping to make something cursed but you can't make an assignment during comprehension. Oh well, maybe Python 3.14!

The problem isn't function or safety, it's cost. It isn't cost effective to build or renovate a nuclear plant compared to wind or solar. If you have one in good condition, it makes sense to let it run its lifetime, but it makes little sense to build new.

Hah, you think they could spend all their money in only 50 lifetimes? What are they, poor?

2% and shrinking with every major service that isn't compatible

But the energy usage is quoted as peak for the entire venue - which is literally a theater / concert hall. It opened with a live U2 performance. The energy usage isn't just for the displays, it includes all the power for the entire building, the concert speakers, heating/cooling, indoor lighting, any kitchen equipment, etc.

Yes it is. It's not in mainline wine, it's been in kernel for a long time now.

It's annoying all the articles are focusing on performance versus stock wine here when basically everyone uses Proton or a fork of it anyway, which has had fsync for years now that does similar performance uplift.

The story here should be that we're getting fsync level performance with fewer bug and it can be upstreamed to wine. There is no relevant performance uplift for Proton users, but I guess performance gets clicks so that's the story all the press are going with.

It's not merged, but the benchmarks are against upstream wine. Proton has hacks (fsync) that have almost identical performance uplift but were not suited to upstreaming.

So basically this will improve "correctness" versus current Proton, not performance. Should fix some bugs and improve compatibility.

Versus stock wine, it's a huge perf uplift though.

What's wrong with the Flatpak permissions system on Linux?

True. So he goes to prison for a few months and then pardons himself? What's the significant difference here?

That's today's justice department. The one that replaces this one with their project 2025 playbook will have different plans.
