There are plenty of Chinese ICE vehicles, what on earth are you talking about ? MG got rolling here in the UK with ICE before releasing hybrids and EVs, Chery only have ICE and hybrids here etc etc Same in Australia with BYD and the rest.
You’re poorly informed.
Paywalled but the headline is true and the subject matter so self evident I can’t be bothered checking if archive unblocks it.
Next subject the bleeding obvious
Employment law differs outside the US.
Being forced to sign an indemnity clause of that type is illegal and/or unenforceable in most western countries, and discovery of IT records is quite sophisticated.
Having said that, your general thrust of “it is highly unlikely” is certainly true. Someone has to have some basis for starting a suit, fishing expeditions are rarely allowed.
The greatest lie ever told about the NHS is that we need to pay more tax to fund it properly.
We don’t.
We need to unwind a web of outsourcing agreements that siphon money away from care provision and into the pockets of the 1%.
There’s enough money if you remove the grift
Edit typo
The C suite are rarely stupid enough to put that sort of thing in writing. It’s a conversation, no record.
Although the irony is with wfh that might be a vid conv that could get an AI auto transcript if they forget to turn it off
Iirc but cant be arsed to check, 3 models - base (rwd) mid range (awd) and premium (awd with a bigger battery)
Thank you so much for the quick reply, I have somehow managed to totally break the installation altogether (it’s now bootlooping), so I’ll kill it recreate and try the above and report back.
Much appreciated
I think the point is the system is so corrupt the 1% will get enough warning lead time to get out and get to their bunker, or at least be well clear of the EMP zones. I.e hours not seconds.
People won’t be reasoned out of a position they didn’t reason themselves into.
In other words as things go to shit it won’t be the Fanta fascist’s fault, it will be immigrants or black people, or Demoncrats. They’ll never blame the pedo or themselves. Your way won’t work.
Errm read the article and don’t see any mention of Bambu - what did they do ?
Seems a fair conclusion, certainly it is warmer in London UK than London Ontario !
London (UK) has been successfully running BYD EV buses for years with no major issues. They’re cheaper than the diesels to run and quieter. Not sure why Canada had so much trouble.
I suspect that will depend on how brown the driver is…
Given the enshittification of the BBC I’d say journalist wangled a free ticket to the car show, was desperately trying to find the hook to write the story on, and asked the BYD rep something nigh on insulting like
“How can BYD be profitable when they are locked out of the world’s biggest car market ?”
And given they’re not allowed to say “We’re already doing just fine bitch, we don’t need to kiss the orange fascists taint” then you get that carefully diplomatic quote
BYD doesnt sell cars in the US according to the article so no, I don’t think BYD is spying on you.
However that other post you’re thinking of was possibly the one about the US manufacturers being forced to build in the spyware by the US govt…
Kinda the opposite to your direction of travel in tge post it seems to me ?
Given Ted is dead, I suspect they may be referring to putting him in the next grave ? Just guessing.
Well deserved
Nah we don’t know that either way on the available facts.
I had one outage which started on a Sunday and ran about 10-12hrs, 3 commercial VPNs were throttled down to 250Kb, but if you turned off the VPN or split tunneled full expected speed was reached (100Mb +). It wasn’t the VPN servers as disconnecting from wifi and going over 4G/5G worked normally.
The “outage” ended and hasn’t happened again. On the monday at least 2 of the commerical VPNs plus my work VPN were all working fine at the expected speeds and have been since. So we don’t know either way whether my work VPN was or was not affected as I didn’t think to test it.
Hypothesis 1 - I was sinbinned for too much torrent d/loading on sat night with a lock down against the VPN addresses that would have come up as the top couple of sources of large data requests (because obviously the tunnel IP address is what the ISP sees)
Hypothesis 2 - they trialled blocking popular 3rd party VPN services as you suggest (but 1 of the 3 is very obscure and def not main stream) and I was just one of those caught in it
Hypothesis 3 - Packet inspection captured torrenting activity and throttling was done because of that.
Clearly 3 is the worst scenario, 1 & 2 are quite probable - the govt is currently trying to create legislation to control VPN usage and as the largest(?) ISP Virgin would be an obvious candidate to do some tests on, and their service is so shite their customers are used to it getting shitty for random reasons.
Thanks for the input. I do a lot of remote work over a VPN for work (Azure one I assume as they’re an MS house, I’ve not checked), which they don’t block, but they also only blocked the always on VPNs myself and the rest of the household had in place for that 12 hour window on a Sunday. It is currently working fine for the personal VPNs. I didn’t think to test the work laptop given I’d tested 3 VPNs by that time, but I’ll try next time
I have some wooden shoes, will they do ?
