Can you quantify and elaborate more how much GC is an issue for something like Unreal engine?

No idea, but companies refusing to buy a 2000$ laptop once every 3 years, a new mouse, keyboard, or screen for < 500$ are very common, more common than the other type.

So I'd expect those to not suddenly change into "let's waste money" companies.

- Watch stuff (alarms, etc.)

- Health stats tracking (HRV, sleep, steps, training readiness)

- Offline navigation when hiking in the mountains (its really nice to have a route available right there on your wrist)

- Workout tracking - the watch can receive accurate HR data from my strap during swimming or other activities.

- Scuba diving - the Descent is a diving computer tracking nitrogen loading and making sure I don't get decompression sickness. It also receives tank pressure information from the air tank and calculates consumption and air time left. It can send messages to other divers and show their air status as well.

- I can read notifications so my phone is permanently set to silent.

- On the new models (sadly my Descent doesn't support that yet) you can call for help through Garmin's satellite network if you get hurt away from coverage.

I don't think these features are gimmicks - they make my sports activities safer, help me communicate with folks in dangerous environments and prod me to do more sports.

How about you actually read the topic in question before putting a bitch in?

This is what's attractive about the "Mittlestand" - having a wide variety of companies competing in the same market so they push each other to improve services.

21st century consolidation is a direct opposite of that.

Yeah, people get upset when you spew out total bullshit.

I work as a performance specialist and "AI writes code like that" is utter nonsense. AI writes the same terrible performing code that was the mediocre developer standard on Stackexchange and other codebases it ate.

You still need a lot of vigilance and time to make well performing software and most software engineers just don't give a damn if we don't outright block their PRs/feature launches before passing performance tests.

Again, vote out the ones that are in favor and replace them with ones that will vote against the proposal.

Everything else she does needs to be confirmed by representatives of your own member state.

Just like EVERY OTHER democracy.

Please stop spreading fabrications - even when you dislike the result. That's fascist behaviour.

The next election is in 2029. I suggest you show up instead of spreading fabrications online.
