In this day and age it’s quite ironic for any country to say that they don’t hack other countries. China will hack, Russia will hack, japan will hack and USA will definitely hack. It’s not just about control. It’s about corporate advantage

The same as would work for Uber or Lyft and be real. Right now.

As someone who doesn’t own a Tesla, but did purchase a very crappy jacket they sold in 2012. I can say without Elon I put the whole company in “meh” mode. The truck, the roadster, the 3. All great products. The sense of its technology advan

Apartments need to build charging areas. Bringing a lithium ion battery into your home is a bad idea. Any apartment complex with any liability will ban them. Tesla’s and Ferrari’s get stolen. Everything can be stolen. That’s what insurance

Who needs a built in lcd at all? No one. Butter Indian designers built maps in. That’s useful and the only reason anyone needs that. Also who needs two hands on the handle bars when you can plug in your phone and ride with one on the thrott

China also has the most share bikes too! They’re just mostly on piles of dumped to rust.

You can’t ride one of these cheaply made scooters legally on a footpath anywhere but the USA where 700w is ok without a license or insurance without finding some legal trouble. They’re mostly 350w-500w in China. Which makes them illegal to

Exactly. Because the price is no longer cheap. So you want quality and your quality to price point is a Vespa. In Asia it’s a Yamaha or a Honda. They’re the biggest markets and the quality their is still great. They only have to pivot to el

90% peddled scooters. Not scooters or mopeds. They’re crappy two sweaters with peddles and a heavy under feet lead acid battery. They’re junk. Niu is a polished version of a cheap plastic scooter around the same concept. Who on earth wants

https://www.atherenergy.com/ This is the Indian player. Trually the first real forward thinking “scooter” I’ve seen that’s electric. Completely rebuilt from the “ground up” I’d say. Niu is slapped together hedge fund money.

Most “scooters” in china are more like peddled scooters. Most people go to and from a short distance. Under 48v maybe 15Ah. That’s giving you about 30km or under real range. Most bikes use lead acid and are heavy as anything to carry around

The servers used to return your results most likely made with intel hardware (known backdoors or open holes). Sophisticated, even mind blowing levels of encryption breaking and penetration. If you think your data is encrypted online, or tha

It’s also far slower to resolve queries and returning information. Doesn’t work without JavaScript. Needs !g for a lot of things. Wish it could be a google replacement but traffic or not. It ain’t.

Still use google for “150 usd to cad” conversions. Use it for translation. Use it for relevant news. Use it for accurate localized searches. Use it for finding relevant sourcing of companies. Calling DuckDuckGo a replacement of google is no

I feel Toyota is cushy with oil interests. So they’re definitely acting the slowest. Think about the major markets for scooters. Taiwan, Indonesia, Phillipines, Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand. Going to be a very tough break up on oil for these

Yamaha, Honda + some other Japanese brand dominate this market in volume. They’re the ones that will switch over to electric without issue. The Japanese are definitely waiting longer than normal. But they’re the ones that will have the larg

It is the number 1 feature for me when writing text. I move between letters with accuracy and I don’t have to move my finger over the letters. Which often covers the letter I want to find. I can’t believe it’s not in the XR.

Meh. Look at the bandwidth pricing. If bandwidth is the Soda. DO is coke and lights sail is McDonald’s selling coke. You can get it direct at wholesale or buy it in a bottle for 5x more.

We are running a massive experiment on our own race in the search of never ending growth. Glass is fine. Reuse, recycle, cut down on waste.

The worst part is the VPN blocks even for their own content. But their UI/UX is incredibly boring and does make it hard to search for items. They seem to want to feed you their own choices instead of helping you find what you want.

The tides are turning on Netflix. People just don’t love the product anymore. I wonder if they’re pivoting for a sale to Disney or they’re just starting to be too big for their own good. Either way. I wonder what will replace it.

Have you watched the documentary or read about the pivot to profit from companies over profit from government spending? The problem isn’t the FDA it’s the government cutting its budget. In such an obvious way that they want business to be a

I wouldn’t worry too much. Just take a look at Chinese tech companies trying to enter new markets and how they’re not doing too well. Alibaba has the right idea. They just invest.

The problem with trying to replace meat. Is the unknowns about why we survived as carnivores for thousands upon thousands of years and our current obsession to suddenly play god with a food supply. We don’t know what we don’t know. And impo

I wouldn’t trust anything the FDA approves after watching the Netflix series on how it is simply a big Pharma publishing house now. It’s so reliant on company money that it can’t do its duty to protect the people it is supposed to protect.

This is spot on. China can only win in its local market with SAAS and IAAS products. With terrible offerings for the most part with a handle of offerings that are really great. When it comes to matured products I feel China can win. DJI, Xi

There are apparently 100 million VPN users in China. So people do access outside offerings. Everyone I met in China had used Instagram or Facebook. These things can’t be stopped.

The line that internet sovereignty protects against mainly American tech is false. Japan. Indonesia. Germany. Australia. Malaysia. South Korea. Lots of countries have had competition and have been able to have localized offerings that won i

Tinfoil hat on. Big industry hates Elon. Rockets are his now. And soon cars will be Tesla’s or at least Electric. Maybe they’ve been bashing him in order to break him. Don’t break the company. Break its leader. Just need to take a look at h
