in all fairness, there's no way I'm buying a Chinese car (nevermind an American one) when I can get a Japanese one
Serious question: Are people going to buy Chinese EVs in Mexico and then pay whatever to get legally registered here?
Because that might yet be far cheaper than Tesla, for a better car, and without paying Musk.
It seems possible! www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/vehic...

I hate these charts so much because they imply chatgpt is comparable to the internet or phones
You could create the same graphic for full screen pop-up advertising on websites and make them look like ultra-rapid technology adoption when really they were just baked unavoidably into the internet

In 2025, AI became pervasive in American life and the economy, with ChatGPT surging in adoption much faster than any other major technology in memory. @nytopinion.nytimes.com

Intentionally killing innocent people is always wrong.
Wherever in the world it happens.
You might think everyone agrees with this simple moral principle, and yet far too many people, on far too many different sections of the political spectrum, try and make exceptions to it.

It’s Second Sunday of the month. Shortly, just off Trafalgar Square, I’ll be running Captain Dan’s laundry for homeless and/or destitute asylum seekers, refugees, and migrants. I’ll probably annoy all the right people

Chic hits #1 today in 1978 with “Le Freak”, a song originally titled “F**k Off!” — and written after the band was turned away by the bouncers at Studio 54.
“We go back to my apartment really pissed off,” said Nile Rodgers, “and Bernard starts singing, ‘Ahhh, f**k off!’ .. and that became the hook.”
