I'm not sure, but let's live a little, try something new and see where it goes.

The problem is that it can still be used as a PC. In this case they cannot sell it at a loss and expect to make up for it with their 30% cut on steam games, because other people might buy it as their cheap office PC without ever using steam.

Will the steam box have slots for ram or SSD so the user can upgrade the hardware later?

While I agree, I think you might not find a monitor that sitze. tvs and monitors have different use cases:

Monitor:

• High dpi

• Low distance to viewer

• Must support high resolution, high frame rate for games

• Must be compact enough for a desk

TV:

• low dpi

• greater distance to viewer

• 120hz and 1080 resolution enough for most movies and shows

• price and size more important than technical aspects.

Use the Trans Putin picture, so it would be illegal in Russia to own or Fabrikate Fake Euros.

Great; i hate people!

Spoiler: the houses are run down or abandoned and need expensive renovations to be habitable and up to modern standards.

No records, no problem!

A 2013 Nissan leaf is worth less than 1500 euros, because it's 12 years old, the battery has 80km range left on a good day and newer models have better range features.

Afaik the meds they need to produce their products are more easily available over the counter in Poland than other EU countries.

I guess Putin is betting on winning this war, so he can add Ukraine to Russias population and replace all the lost manpower.

But the price difference is not so extreme that people would scrap their petrol car for an new 20000 Euro or more EV overnight. It's only important for people who drive a lot.

German car makes rely on exports, and a lot of other countries are much more electric car friendly, or will ban the sale of petrol cars soon. They are already late to the EV market; if they delay till 2040 then they wont be able to sell any cars overseas anymore and will have to close factories.

The reason steam engines went went away was because of economics. Electric motors where more powerful, more efficient, fewer moving parts and less maintenance, can power up instantly and don't need to heat up a boiler for an hour before it's ready - so in short cheaper to run.

The problem I see with EVs in germany is that electricity costs are already high, and with extra fees on fast charging the price advantage is not there compared to petrol - at least not if you rely on public charging and don't have a solar roof at home.

Vodka and cigarettes is my guess.

The same people who show German flags on their clothes or social media profile pictures usually show up when there is some right wing protest, or next to some racist online comments, so it's no longer a flag but more like the maga hat. It also serves as a sign so guys with small dicks can find each other.

Oh no, the billionaires in the US will now think twice before spending 40000 on a handbag, 2000 on a pair of shoes or 800 on a T-shirt!

German car manufacturers already have plants in the US since many years. The US cars have different regulations and need different parts, and they take advantage of the lower manufacturing costs and don't have to add expensive shipping from Europe to US ports to the sales price.

This doesn't make the electricity cheaper for you. It just means a lower number is printed on your power bill, and a higher number on your sales-, income or other tax bill that the government then gives to the power plant owner.
