  • There are places delivery with drones makes a lot of sense and is the best way to do it. It depends what the most important metric is.

    In an African country they are delivering medicin and bloodbaths with a drone plane to hospitals that need them for emergencys. That way they only need to have one central stock of these supply’s that can be quickly dispatched. Driving wouldn’t be an option that would take several hours over bad roads. Veritasium did a video about it.

    For Amazon deliveries it makes no sense at all.


  • They were bought last year by epic games. Now they were sold to songtradr, probably because it wasn’t profitable enough for EPiC. As part of that more than half the people were let go.

    They’ll want their money’s worth, so prices fo up, or in this case the percentage cut. My bet is also the enshitification is starting soon. For now it’s fine, the future, probably not. But that’s just my guess.

    As for alternatives, I’ve got none.




  • We don’t have our own trade deals. The EU makes all the trade deals for everyone to the outside and on the inside it’s completely free trade. That was one of the points the UK wanted from the Brexit. To “great” success.

    Switzerland can pass any law they are happy with. The are not part of the Union. They are only part of the trade federation and allow free travel. But they are not part of Schengen either. (I remembered that wrong.) It’s complicated.

    The rest is spot on.
