Me n the boys with our pocket guillotines
… Is that an AI generated thing or an actual physical item?
I love the gag, but if someone actually made it I assume it has an actual use and the things that come to mind that would fit in that hole frighten me.
Mel Brooks had a gag in one of his movies where he was a rabbi who carried a pocket guillotine.
Looks like a straight cigar cutter to me
ah, that makes far more sense.
It’s called an ITAR violation, and it’s probably more than just EV parts.
Maybe we just dont have oligarchs in government, yeah?
You can’t just D³ all the oligarchs.
(this is a challenge, I want you to but I can’t just say that.)
If we got rid of all the oligarchs, we’d barely have anyone left.
You son of a bitch, I’m in
The sad part is, that allowing Elon to export “Full Self Driving” or whatever other technology to China won’t even help Tesla that much, and will even harm the company in the long term:
The Chinese will just copy/steal the technology, because all foreign investment is through joint ventures with local corporations, and give it to their domestic manufacturers, like they did and continue to do with all other offshored production that winds up in their hands.
As a recent spate of articles about GM, Honda and Nissan, tells us, the Chinese domestic manufacturers now own 60% market share.
Tesla’s market share in China has dropped in nearly half over the last 3 months from 9/24 - 12/24, from 6.43% to 3.39%, and that was already down from 9% in 2023.
No, you don’t understand. FSD can’t be copied because it’ll be entirely server side, and hosted in the USA!
Hope your ping times don’t spike while making a left turn in a busy intersection.
No doubt running on starlink.
Have never heard that and doubt it is true.
Bit off topic maybe but isn’t Teslas self-driving setup the worst of all implementations? I’m no expert but i thought the cars only used cameras and other companies were closer to full autonomy (though none have achieved it)
FSD is less reliable compared to say Google’s Waymo. GM’s Cruise gave up on autonomous driving
China’s dubious state media, says their autonomous robotaxis are quite safe, and they’re rolling out fleets of them in major cities already
But I’m sure that bits and bobs in Tesla’s FSD systems have some value to someone.
Critical support for comrade Musk in his protracted struggle against Sinophobia.
The measure at issue is known as the “outbound investment” provision. We have heard for years about the problem of manufacturing businesses shipping jobs overseas to China, with its low worker wages and low environmental standards. China typically forces businesses wanting to locate factories in its country to transfer their technology and intellectual property to Chinese firms, which can then use that to undercut competitors in global markets, with state support.
This paragraph is dripping with liberal hypocrisy on so many levels.
Can you explain what you mean? Is the US known for using this tactic? I guess having backdoors in tech comes to mind.
You sir, have added absolutely nothing to the conversation. This post is a waste of space.
I bet I can waste more space in better faith and somehow be both more informative while contributing even less to the conversation!

Woah, how did you know what I was doing
Wait, wait. The only comment in here, directly quoting the article and disagreeing with it?
That motherfuckin defines “adding to the conversation”
