Submission + - Trump stuns auto industry with tiny-car move that promises ultra-cheap wheels (dailymail.co.uk)

sinij writes:

President Donald Trump says he's moving to legalize Japan's beloved kei cars — the tiny, boxy, almost toy-like vans, trucks, and coupes that have a cult following overseas. And he wants US automakers to start building them here.

This makes a lot of sense in urban settings, especially when electrified. Hopefully these are restricted from highway system.

By "in the 1940's" I assume you mean when the UN handed the region to the Jews? There were no "Palestinians" at the time, that ethnonym was invented by Yasser Arafat

There was Palestine. That's a distinction without a difference.

So, that initial "theft" was actually the rest of the world recognizing that the Jews needed their land back

And just look at the beautiful Genocide they've created there!

Congratulations! Look who you've sided with.

I'm not siding with anyone here. I dislike all religious ethnostates because they always go wrong at some point. The only thing I like is when they become more secular, like Iran was before the USA tampered with it. I am siding against genocide. If Israel can stop doing a genocide, I can stop disliking Israel for doing genocide and just focus on their religious oppression.

Honda is showing the beginning of the end by selling cars not designed by them, so maybe you won't have to wait too long for their come-uppance. Their only full sized EV is a GM product and they didn't even bother making any interior changes so it doesn't even look or feel like a Honda inside. It sounds like this can only be an improvement at this point.

It's so weird given that Honda was the undisputed champ of making a good simple reliable car in the 1990s. How did they get here? Did they hire execs from Sony?

Oh yeah, Gemini is great!

I finally just had to block the AI search results on Google because they are so much worse than worthless every single time. The "citations" linked never say what Google claims they say. Every time I search for information on something I know about already I can see that Gemini doesn't know shit.

Russia loves cutting cables, we should give them more of what they love... at home.

I'm sure they'd find a way to export their porn via other means, so nothing of value would be lost.

Actually, I'd miss ÐYоÐÐÐон-98 but I could live with it.

Yes, I know that isn't readable. I just don't care any more. Besides, there's no way to make it readable here.

CF-ABS is NOT like fiberglass at all. The CF is chopped into fine bits.

A part made with fiberglass which was somehow made with a resin that was as heat affected as ABS would have the exact same problem as the part that failed. The problem isn't the nature of the CF, the problem is that it can't do its job if the plastic melts.

who started the October 7th war

History did not start October 7th. You are ignoring at least decades of history, if not millennia.

Hamas' charter actually CALLS for genocide and the destruction of Israel.

You mean of the nation murdering Palestinians and stealing their land since the 1940s? Yeah, self-defense is so horrible. Why don't you look at the comparative death toll sometime if you don't want to be a Zionist tool. Make sure you look at what it was on October 6th, you genocide-supporting clown.
