Europe’s economic self-sabotage: The Nexperia heist and its fallout
Under pressure from Washington, the Netherlands expropriated Nexperia. By disregarding property rights, Europe is undermining its credibility and attractiveness. What just happened in the Netherlands should alarm anyone who still believes Europe is a safe, rules-based place to do business. Under a dusty 1952 wartime statute — the Goods Availability Act — the Dutch government has effectively seized control of Nexperia, one of Europe’s few thriving semiconductor firms. The company’s Chinese CEO was suspended, its shares placed under a government-appointed trustee, and a “temporary” director given decisive voting power. The official justification: vague allegations of governance failures. The real trigger, however, appears to have been American pressure. According to court filings, Washington privately warned The Hague in June that unless it removed Nexperia’s Chinese leadership, both the firm and its parent, Wingtech Technology, would be added to the U.S. Entity List — an economic…
Can you turn off autosave in Pokémon Legends Z-A?
Autosave in Pokémon games isn’t a new feature, but things can be pretty frustrating in Legends Z-A due to how the mechanic has been implemented. Table of contents Can you turn off autosaves in Pokémon Legends Z-A? How to use manual save in Pokémon Legends Z-A Can you turn off autosaves in Pokémon Legends Z-A? As of writing, there’s no known way to turn off the autosave feature. It comes enabled by default, much like previous games in the series. However, you don’t get the chance to disable the feature in Legends Z-A. It will always remain active on its own, saving your in-game progression after regular intervals. I am unsure as to why Gamefreak made this change in Legends ZA. While auto save was present, having the ability to turn it off felt welcome at all times. In fact, it was the popular choice for me and many in the community. Unlike auto saves, manual saves can be created at any given moment (except when you’re in the middle of a battle). As long as you can pause the game, you should be able to create a manual save. To create a manual save, press the X button on your Switch/Switch 2. Then press the R button to save your progress manually. You can then quit the game or close the menu to continue your journey. Like our content?
