Honestly, everything you have said is dishonest and/or disingenuous. The idea that the price of the vehicle is going to be reduced by 90% as a result of subsidies and innovation is both stupid and dishonest. You should also look up the definition of authoritarian.
They responded
You’re saying “they”, but it’s you. And no you didn’t, repeating what you said before isn’t addressing the issues.
Adressed twice.
Never addressed at all, you pivoted to the oil industry. You didn’t address the subsidies from China or the unfair trade practices.
America will not subsidize to that level, if they could, and no amount of innovation is going to combat subsidization or the unfair trade practices.
According to a Bloomberg article, China will sell EVs at under $10,000, undercutting the price of the average American EV by $50,000. Are you seriously arguing that “investment to lower cost” will reduce the cost by 85-90%? That’s simply a ludicrous assertion.
You think US products won’t have spyware?
I don’t think that collecting anonymized usage data, is the same as unlimited spying going back to an authoritarian government. So no, absolutely nothing comparable.
You’re literally just talking to yourself, ignoring any mention of selling below cost, which is the biggest issue, with spyware being a close 2nd.
Americans get cheaper EVs…
For a few years, until the American automakers go bankrupt, as you said, then the Chinese automakers increase prices 10x.
…and the legacy auto industry gets taught a valuable lesson as companies who refused to modernize go bankrupt.
What a valuable lesson, get subsidized by an authoritarian government so that you can offer vehicles below cost. Also be sure to add spyware for the aforementioned authoritarian government.
Do you even understand what below cost means? No amount of modernization will counteract it.
China is subsidizing EV production and selling cars below cost. Allowing them to be sold in the US would kill the domestic EV market. How is that better for Americans?
They may not know step 3, but they know that step 4 is PROFIT!
I don’t pay attention to the news (haven’t for many years now) and I firmly believe it’s okay that I don’t.
I also don’t vote because, at this point, I’d consider myself the definition of an uninformed voter.
You’re essentially keeping yourself ignorant, and then saying you’re too ignorant to take action. Just ridiculous.
So much of what’s presented by the media doesn’t impact my day-to-day life in the slightest.
Trump was elected and as a direct result: Roe was overturned, pregnant women are having their lives risked over non-viable pregnancies, others are forced to have children they don’t want, gun control has been struck down, Christian Nationalism is heavily asserting itself at a time when fewer and fewer people are religious, the pandemic was bungled leading to thousands and thousands of unnecessary deaths, $2t was given away to the uber-wealthy, air and water quality standards were rolled back, ultra-conservative judges have been instituting national bans from the 5th circuit, gay and trans rights have been rolled back…and on and on…and that’s without getting to all the states banning books and destroying the social safety net.
I guess you could not be a woman, not know a woman, not care about getting shot, or know anyone who you don’t want to see get shot, like oppressive religious tenets foisted upon you, not worry about dying of communicable disease, or know anyone that you wouldn’t want to see die of communicable disease, be ok with your tax dollars being given to the rich, and not be gay or trans or care about anyone who is…but you must at least breath air and drink water, right?
It all affects you, you’re just too ignorant to realize how. Your apathy and indifference are what allows shitty people to hurt others. But if you don’t care about that, no one can force you.
Have they found a way to make the remote more slippery?
Take away their veto, it belongs to the Soviet Union, which they are not. Give it to Ukraine while you’re at it, they have roughly as much claim to it.
Being a passerby and actively engaging with the incident is way more than enough cause to identify and talk to them.
Poisoning the well a bit by saying actively engaging. Sounds like they are passively watching.
That warrant should absolutely be granted.
Thoroughly disagree.
It’s very different than geofencing an entire area. It’s specific…
Ok.
and directly connected to the crime, whether they committed it or not.
Not so much, and they already, presumably have the video.
That said, that person is also absolutely a suspect and should be looked at at minimum at surface level.
Other than mere location, what reason do you have to suspect the person? You can look, sure, but I don’t see grounds for a warrant.
Yeah, that’s probably worded better.
Assuming all they had was a live stream of police responding, and that it didn’t start before police arrived, which would demonstrate prior knowledge, I don’t see probable cause. It’s much more likely that a passer-by recorded it.
Neither of these is reasonable.
There certainly are situations where this could be reasonable; however, when your parameters return 30,000 people it’s not nearly tailored enough.
To get a warrant you need probable cause that a person committed a crime, I don’t see how a live stream could meet that burden unless it starts prior to the arrival of the police.
These are both abuses by law enforcement, or more clearly, a path that allows their job to be easier by infringing on people’s rights.
Is my pareidolia flaring up or does that glacier look like Trump’s face? (which also appears to be melting)
Listen, you got nervous and things didn’t work right. It’s actually a fairly common issue. The problem is the next time not only are you nervous about the same stuff, but you get nervous it won’t work again.
Be an adult and talk to her. You don’t need to apologize, just explain that you like her and got nervous and things didn’t happen. She’s probably worried it was her. Take things slow and be patient and relaxed. Everything will work out fine.
If you don’t know what you’re doing, search for porn for women. It tends to be more “realistic” and more focused on what women enjoy. But at the end of the day just take it slow and communicate.
Because bad guys show up for every election, and the good guys, which are the majority, don’t.
20 gunmen killed*
Troll, propagandist for authoritarians… whichever.
You’re right though, I should believe you over ever other country and international organization on the planet. The guy who threatens nuclear annihilation and randomly fires missiles off to be provocative is just a friendly small-town mayor type. Just a case of bad PR.
If by normal country you mean authoritarian dictatorship with little to no freedoms, then sure “normal”. Glad we put all that misinformation to rest.
Ok what evidence do you have the DPRK is not a democracy and it’s more authoritarian than any other state on Earth?
Literally everything ever written on the subject. Bad troll!
They don’t have access to western media… You think a country should allow in straight up propaganda from countries that want to destroy them? Does that make any sense?
Yes, it’s called freedom, and no one is trying to destroy them.
And most of those “democracy” lists are absolutely bullshit! The US is always at the top, and it’s one of the least democratic countries in the world.
It’s amazing how everything that doesn’t agree with you is bullshit or CIA propaganda. I have never seen the US at the top of any of those lists. The two I quickly pulled up had the US at 29th and 36th. Congratulations on consistently being wrong and spewing un-informed nonsense.
And why are you being so defensive about the idea North Korea might not be the devil or hell on earth?
I never said either of those. In fact, what I said was that they have democratic republic in their name but that they are objectively authoritarian. You’re making statements that are false and incredibly dishonest. The DPRK is not a democracy, it is an incredibly repressive authoritarian state. Why are you so intent on giving cover to authoritarian despots?
Congratulations, you just said the dumbest thing I’ve read on the Internet in a very long time. That’s impressive!
I pay for the military, for roads, for schools, for police, for fire departments…and I can’t opt out of any of that. So am I already a slave? If so, then I might as well get some healthcare out of the deal.
If I’m not already a slave then universal healthcare isn’t making me a slave either. No one would be forcing you to use your healthcare either.
