Is the German version of La Suite: OpenDesk? Because to me (Dutch) I like the OpenDesk name better.


> I do think that there is an aspect of money laundering going on.

Definitely yes, a similar thing happened across the pond in Amsterdam: https://www-groene-nl.translate.goog/artikel/ze-zijn-hier-zo... (Dutch article, used Google Translate)


Same here, maybe one of my "anti-bullshit" extensions is blocking it..


Also interesting that average age of people in the line was about ~30, I have the feeling that a large part of the population (older people) have no idea what is going on.


The older population knows exactly what's going on and already keep their savings stuffed in the mattress. The younger generations are now having to learn the hard way.


Hopefully one day we'll have a perfect digital twin of the human body and can test drugs like this without harming animals..


The powerful thing about GA is the link with Google Ads, does that work nice for Plausible as well?


Plausible founder here. There's nothing automatic but you can track your campaigns with utm_campaigns manually.

Google has made sure that analytics for Google Ads works best within their own walled garden. Same with Facebook and Twitter with their Pixel products.

Instead of using the Referer header or utm parameters as intended, these large corps send obtuse random IDs (gclid, t.co/<id> links) which only they can correlate to an ad, search query or tweet using their internal database.

So until there is anti-trust action in this space towards more oppenness and competition, you're stuck with the ad provider if you want tight integration between ads and analytics.


Not Google, a company. Because not GA on it's self is illegal. The use of GA is illegal.


Now I'm wondering how many EU government sites are currently using GA.


And don't think it stops at the US border, this is a segment from the Dutch TV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLoR2Spftwg Funny thing they just copy/paste the US conspiracies on Dutch politicians.


What about full electric F1 cars, but where they switch out batteries four times during the race during pit stops. High speed racing without the need to carry a heavy battery pack.


Switching out batteries in Formula E has been problematic up until this point from a technological point of view, so much so that in Formula E they simply have 2 cars and when the drivers pit they hop out of the first car and into the second car. Batteries are extremely heavy and need to be protected so that in the event of an accident they don't explode or kill the driver. Thus far the battery has been more or less part of the chassis. Its not clear that battery technology is advanced enough to provide the energy density required to propel the cars at racing speeds while also being portable enough to be swapped out mid-race.


They don't swap cars anymore. But the races are shorter than F1 races.


> subpar F1 driver will win in the best car

I agree, Bottas is a living example. But I think any of the current drivers on the F1 grid will start to win races in the Mercedes car. Beating Hamilton is another thing however.
