Fuck China, but also fuck Elon

True. But, I’m to the point that I’ll take any little win in the news lol

Ahh, so you hate people you disagree with. Today is Easter Sunday, maybe you should brush up on your morality lessons. I'm holding [email protected] teaching right here on Lemmy platform.

You go around telling people you don't like that their life should be fucked-over. The entire nation of China. I can see why you are so popular on Lemmy and get so many upvotes, you spread hate and dehumanization.

There are probably a couple of different ways to measure it, so maybe another one happened earlier. Revenue vs number of cars sold, for example

Maybe Tesla should have focused on making good cars.

Thats kind of the problem with top down hierarchical structures

Electric cars, LLMs. I’m wondering how far ahead and more cost effective China is on quantum computing. There’s also a good chance that any legit quantum computing breakthrough in the US gets raped to death by VC vampires like everything else.

What good is new technology if I can't place it behind a massive paywall and generate obscene wealth with it? You expect my dragon hoard to stay confined to one castle like I'm some kind of peasant?

They're already well ahead of us in thorium LFTR tech. It wouldn't surprise me if there were other things they had undermined the US in researching.

Can’t say I’m surprised. I was traveling overseas and I saw some models that looked really cool.

The BYD Seal I think it was, the new model is $8000 rsvp. you cant match that price:

Slave cars or Nazi cars. Tough choice.
