TCL TVs are made in China by a Chinese company
MG cars are made in China by a Chinese company

Both are made under the same conditions (potential slave labor, bad stuff the Chinese government is doing etc) so either both should be banned or both should be allowed in under the same conditions.

Either you say no to all Chinese-owned products or you say yes to all Chinese owned products, none of those "some are OK, some are not" crap.

If China (and "made in China" products) are bad we should stop allowing any of them in. Either we we should allow all Chinese products to be sold and let the free market sort it out or we should completly block all Chinese products. None of this "some Chinese products are OK but others are not" stuff.

Despite the reputation that some brands have (well deserved in some cases *cough*LDV*cough*) there are Chinese cars that are actually good from brands like BYD and MG

The world needs to stop being scared of Chinese stuff (cars and otherwise), let them sell all their products and let the free market sort it out. If consumers choose to buy a BYD or an MG or whatever over a Ford or a Chevy or a Toyota or a Hyundai, so be it.

How do the winter temperatures in Finland compare to those in the Midwest of the US?

I have a non-stick electric wok and it does a good job of cooking stir-fries, noodles and a bunch more. Sure its not as good as what I could get at a restaurant but its more than good enough for me.

Clearly you haven't seen some of the latest episodes of Futuruama...
Or the Fallout TV series. (one of the best TV series I have seen in a long time)

Thankfully the big players in streaming all offer no-ad tiers (so I can watch all my Disney+ shows without having to worry about ads at all). Sure they cost more but not enough that I am willing to put up with ads OR the effort involved in going sailing for my content.

Considering that most fully practicing Muslims consider watching porn just as evil as eating pork, I don't think there are going to be too many people upset.

I would argue that mergers should be banned if one of the merger parties has more than x% market share. This would apply on a national basis but also in individual local markets (e.g. if both supermarkets in a small town want to merge, that would be blocked unless the alternative is that one or both of the supermarkets go bust).

Seen plenty of smaller mergers work out good for both the merger parties and their customers/the market as a whole (usually because the new entity is not big enough to be able to control whatever market(s) they are operating in but are big enough to be able to better compete with other players.

The problem is a combination of resource-hogging DRM being forced on these games by publishers and developers not being given the time needed to actually optimize their games for performance (although as someone who has been involved with performance optimizations in a game engine, I can feel for those who have to do it, its not always easy)

Normally I am against forced breakups because they cause more harm than good (like the idea to break up Google and force them to spin off Chrome or Android or the idea some politicians have had in Australia to break up our big supermarket duopoly) but in this case a breakup of Ticketmaster would be good.

That plus some restrictions (e.g. no more exclusivity deals with venues/acts/artists/bands/teams/managers/etc and banning both the new-ticket-sales part of the business and the used-ticket-sales part of the business from selling used tickets) would solve a lot of the problems IMO.

The app doesn't let you put your specific address in there?

When Google Glass came out, people complained about the "always on camera" and other stuff (the whole "glasshole" thing).

The Meta Ray-Ban glasses are basically the same thing except made by the biggest glasses company on the planet and an even bigger data harvester than Google. Why aren't the same people who complained about Google Glass complaining about these?

Can this stop the kind of spyware and exploitation tools that are used by by law enforcement agencies, intelligence agencies and the sort of "secret police" dictatorships use to suppress dissent?

Someone (either these guys or one of the other robotaxi companies) needs to launch robotaxis in Vegas that can go to and from the Vegas airport.
