In Europe, Ford is not a prestige badge. They are competing with the likes of Renault, VW, Nissan, and Honda. And now of course the Chinese brands like MG, BYD, Jaecoo, Sonoda, Cherry, Omoda, and others.
They just aren't offering much for the European market. We aren't keen on light trucks, and most of their EVs are shitty fossil conversions. That just leaves the dwindling fossil market for them.
Could also be a warranty issue. Some poor designs rely on firmware to enforce limits and prevent damage.
It's bizarrely common with EV cars already. Some have fake engine noises, and some even have a whole fake clutch and gear shifting system. The silence and instant, uninterrupted torque are the best things about EVs.
Electric motors have instant torque without the spinning mass and gyroscopic effects.
Hopefully as well as the simulation mode, they work on creating entirely new ways to control the bike that take advantage of it being electric.
Europe has ARM, Linux was created here, and there is plenty of domestic enterprise grade hardware in things like telecomms.
China has been transitioning away, and shows it is possible. They have domestic CPUs, RAM, storage, motherboards... Europe can catch up.
This is about getting wholesalers to pay them to take the data about where they source their stuff and who they sell it to at what rates so Amazon can replace their step in the chain as well.
It's probably the biggest single transfer of wealth from you to corporations in US history.
That's why it's best to use 2FA that is more automated, e.g. a security key. That way the domain name of the site requesting the 2FA authentication determines the response, so phishing sites won't be able to get usable codes.
It's the age old conflict between security and cost. Properly hashes passwords are not cheap, they incur a cost for the server every time someone logs in. There is a disincentive for businesses to implement them.
I see you know nothing about biology, and a lot about theology.
The app got worse. It's lacking some features that Fitbit had.
The screenless band is interesting, but I really just wish they would improve sleep tracking. It's definitely worse in the preview app.
We had all that shit with gay people as well. A threat to boys, wanting to get into the toilets and the schools.
It's all so terribly familiar.
System going down in 5 minutes.
