  • And companies like Uber, Amazon etc. are heavily disliked by a lot of people because of it. This tactic forces smaller companies into bankruptcy and is bad for the consumer in the long run.

    So yeah, it is absolutely not good either if China props up their whole EV industry to establish a monopoly. I hope governments around the world are pushing back as much as possible to keep their local car manufacturers alive, their economies will profit from it.

    Not supporting this doesn't mean that you don't understand modern economics, on the contrary I would argue.

  • So you're saying Trumps decisions are exactly the ones of a saboteur, but you don't believe he is one, because he is incompetent?

    How "competent" do you have to be to be able to do, what someone tells you to do?

  • Prices in China:

    BYD Atto 3: 16k USD.
    BYD Seal: 25k USD.
    Tesla 3: 32k USD.

    Prices in Germany:

    BYD Atto 3: 33k USD.
    BYD Seal: 45k USD.
    Tesla 3: 46k USD.

    Comparing prices like you do just looks like bad faith. And I'm not saying this to support Tesla but to highlight that there is some serious BYD shilling going on here.

    You want Tesla to compete? I guess the US already has prison slave labour and reduced safety measures for Teslas, it's just missing some billions of US tax money flowing in and you got what you wished for.

    Not a good idea? But China doing exactly that is OK, because US bad equals China good?

    Maybe putting tariffs on chinese imported EVs (like the EU does) is the reasonable thing to do to protect your own industry and jobs.

  • The only thing I don't like is the performance: It stutters ever so often and crashes like once every hour after a loading screen.

    Weird thing is that it ran way better at the beginning and then got worse, now even the menu is laggy.

  • I just read the question from the other user why you don't isolate yourselves and just wanted to say that I'm thankful that you don't.

    It baffles my mind how Lemmy is full of users agreeing that Trump is Putin's asset and that facebook, xitter and TikTok are full of propaganda but are too afraid to take the necessary stance here, like you are doing.

    It must be tiring but you're doing Lemmy as a whole a big service and I just wanted to let you know that it doesn't go unnoticed. Thank you!

  • Just be aware that the creator is a climate change denialist and puts his personal opinions into the show.

    Climate Town had an informative episode about it.

  • Not ironic it all.

    The US condemns China for the treatment of the Uyghurs. US good, China bad.

    China condemns the US for the treatment of the Palestinians. China good, US bad.

    Both countries don't give a shit about either.

  • The dismantling of the US was Putins wet dream since forever, he would have done the same with or without the well deserved sanctions for invading Ukraine.

  • That doesn't make much sense, since Baja California was named California before the US-State which even belonged to Mexico back in the days.

    If anything Trump is going to change California to Ivankia or Putinstan, but I guess at that point California will rather rejoin Mexico.

  • It's what Putin wants, so yeah.

  • I doubt you're getting downvoted for saying that chrome is faster than firefox, but for the irony of using Linux with a Chromium based browser, while being on lemmy.

    1. Chromium, while open source, is controlled by Google and a lot of browsers (Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera, Samsung Android, Vivaldi) are built on it, giving it a market share of around 75%.
    2. Electron apps are frameworks based on Chromium (ie VSCode).
    3. Google is evil and with Manifest V3, Adblockers like uBlock Origin, will eventually stop working for all derivatives (even for Vivaldi).
    4. The future: Because Chromium got the de facto monopoly there is no need for Firefox support anymore and the big corpos (ie Microsoft is a sucker for Chromium/Electron) can turn what's left of the "old" Internet into apps without the ability to block ads or tracking.
    5. No "?", just Profit.
  • It's a typo. The original "Don't tread on me" Flag is called the "Gadsden Flag".

    Maybe you were joking, I didn't know this and I think it's pretty funny how well the typo fits!

  • Nearly everything you said is just plain wrong:

    • The NPD never got banned (supposedly because the party was "insignificant").
    • They renamed themselves "Die Heimat".
    • If banned, a follow up party from the AfD would be automatically banned too.
    • You make it sound like 30% of Germans vote AfD, while they get that many votes mainly in the eastern states.
    • You talk about democracy and call Nazis "political opponents". I got news for you: Those fascist scums' only goal is to get rid of democracy, sell Europe to Russia and maybe start a third world war.

    So keep on talking as much as you like, everyone with half a brain can see right through you.
