iOS and MacOS grew increasingly stupid in the last years. Auto-updates hardly work in my opinion….

Rivian and other US manufacturers should buy the factories that VW wants to sell.

Honestly, the Chinese cars ain’t as good as German, at least in terms of ergonomics. I actually went to all dealers in my area to compare. General opinion is that their seats are pretty bad even on higher end cars. It’s a trade war, they stop buying our cars, we won’t buy theirs…

Just don’t fall from one pit to another. This place can become just as bad.

3. Seats are way worse, even when comparing to basic entry level EU seats. Chinese offer leather electric seats as standard mostly, but I'd take any textile manual European seat any day because they are wider and more comfy.

2. Software looks odd, kinda like a Huawei, with mobile-like way of use, which is not welcome when driving a car. Most of them didn't have Apple Carplay (I saw LeapMotor, Geely, Forthing, DFSK and BAIC).

1. Chinese cars are not as ergonomic, for a couple of them I couldn't get the steering wheel / seat arrangement in a proper position no matter how much I tried. In almost all of them I felt like sitting in a van.

Honestly, I did a tour of all the Chinese auto dealerships in my area. A couple of my observations when comparing to EU manufacturers:

Idea: how about in EU we strengthen our relationship with the US and work together with their auto companies to develop really staggering cars?

hate to break it to you, but China has FB, YT, Insta, Google and all the other apps blocked. Why do you think that is?

Let's hope it remains down and it goes the same way in Europe as well. The Chinese have Western social networks blocked as well, it's time we treat them the same way.

there are plenty on Twitter that didn't and were bold enough to call me stupid for saying Canoo is a bad investment. 😂

I remember when I was on Twitter and told Canoo investors this company is gonna fail and everyone started to hate on me. Well... I'm not the one who lost money on this.

I really hope they drop their deal with Xpeng and SAIC and go full in with Rivian.

Well of course this is not a propaganda machine. I like Bluesky for the time being. Quite glad I came to my senses and deleted Twitter.

One sided fact checking is not really fact checking though. Community notes is not a bad idea if it’s implemented with good will in mind (aka not like X).

I read that multiple EU leaders reject the idea of increasing defense spending to 5%. We have a job crisis in Europe. By increasing budget spend in the defense sector you’d be able to employ people to work in the defense industry. We need EU defense to be strong to defend ourselves from Russia.

Strictly my opinion, but having Facebook change its mind on the way they censored stuff on the platform was inevitable. Community notes is a much more transparent solution if it’s actually implemented with good will in mind, not like X.

This was probably one of the best regulations rolled out by the EU. Question is what will happen once USBC becomes technically obsolete? 🤔

Kinda agree, we should be ready to fight for ourselves not leave our security in the hands of others.
