The Volvo EX30 is right now only manufactured in China, and is built on a Chinese car platform (Gheely SEA). It is a Chinese car. I also think that this is likely to sell incredibly well in Europe. > https://en.wikipedia.org&#

BYD have conflated their hybrid and pure EV sales for several years now to try and make their EV sales volume look more impressive. It's disappointing they still do it. Here's the same misleading press release from Jan 2022: http

As other comment mentions, the tax credit system makes it harder for them to compete with a China-built product. BYD have had some successes selling electric buses in the US though (the tax credit applies to consumer vehicles): https:/

YouTube premium has no ads on the AppleTV app, which solves the TV side for my home. I have to imagine Android TV and other solutions are the same for the most part - is your TV using some kind of odd built in YouTube app that doesn't

Bought both back roughly just after Covid era so a while ago. It was even worse during the Covid chip shortage, I had to pay a significant premium over list price for the 2nd one. Haven’t had tried to buy one since so don’t have any advice

I've also used the same solution, although I ended up scaling from a Pi to a larger 13th gen Intel box with two USB Corals due to number of cameras. It's been ridiculously reliable running from a docker compose stack for years now

The 1070/1080 are absolute champions of longevity if using a GPU... for graphics/gaming. I still have a gaming machine with my old 1080ti from 2017 in the house, for the most part it will play most of the latest games like Cyberpu

There's still some slip though in all these virtual solutions - a wheel has to start slipping for the software to notice and modulation to kick in. With a real locking diff, it's physically impossible for one wheel to spin faster

It's not yet clear virtual locking diffs on quad motor cars will be as effective as a fully locked diff. A software system will likely have to detect some small degree of slip before intervening to sync the wheel speed again - that sli
