    If anything, LEDs having MUCH better lifespans than bulbs is saving people.

    There are 2 (4 if high beams are separated) incandescent light bulbs in a car without LEDs.
    There is at least 1 extra point of redundancy.
    Also car light bulbs are made to last longer in automotive environment.

    LEDs having better lifespan in a paper. But In real world your mileage may vary.

    I’m not against LEDs, but current execution is bad: too bright, too easy to blind other people.




















  • From the article:

    The Financial Times newspaper reported that, based on WHO figures, over 9,000 patients are in need of urgent treatment as Gaza’s health system has become overwhelmed. This number includes a list of 109 severely ill and injured children, which the WHO hoped would be treated in EU countries.

    9000 / 27 = ~334

    Meanwhile:

    Norway has also committed to taking in 20 patients.
    […]
    The first 16 seriously injured children were evacuated to Spain in July.

    Peanuts.
