I’d buy the SU7 in a heartbeat. I don’t think they make it with language localization in English though. I’d need to learn Chinese and move. Can’t say I haven’t considered those two things.

Really? I’m not the best student but I learned a lot. I always thought that if I tried harder I’d have learned a lot more. College was about 10x as effective per hour as high school but I’m not sure I’d have gotten anywhere in life without

Did you see those amazing human form acrobatic robots? LLMS already know the procedure for plumbing. They just don’t have hands and feet… yet. We’re five years from a robot who can do plumbing.

I’ve long been fascinated by places that are past their glory days. Budapest is like that. Buenos Ares is intriguing, but doesn’t feel so much past as startlingly old world. I wonder what happens to countries that causes them to fall behind
