When they foul up and roll on the ground, the vehicle then qualifies as a wheel, and thus passes car certification. Chinese are clever.

"Shit, they crash better! Tesla & Space-X must make up the crash gap or forever fall behind!"

They should be computer controlled, as I don't trust human drivers up above my house.

but too much booze just makes them monkey around all day.

Shit, they're building an Orange Terminator.

a great way to lose credibility in your product, moron!

The dickators are all trying to out dick each other. Xi knows he can fuck up to a certain degree because Trump will also, leveling the cheating field.

Some retailers register and insure unsold cars in bulk, a maneuver that allows automakers to record them as sold while helping dealers to qualify for factory rebates and bonuses from manufacturers

I thought dictators flog mass cheaters. Perhaps they red-nosed the right people.

The Glory if it replaces marketers first.

This is comparing apples and applejacks. If you only care about cost per calorie, people may as just drink canola oil and take a daily vitamin pill. What we really need to do is look at the total cost of living when eating real foods vs packaged trash "food". If we were honest about adding up the related external costs of illness, healthcare, discontent, disability, etc and look at it more holistically, I believe the "cheaper" shit food starts to lose out fast. But nobody wants to do that. Hell, we can't even get people to agree that being a fatass is unhealthy.

And the idea that it costs a lot to eat healthy is a myth that needs to die. Some things are more expensive, sure, but you can make a healthy meal with cheaper options as well. The truth is that people are lazy and addicted to the results of 50 years engineering to create the mouth porn that line most store shelves.

Easy to say when you live in or near London (which as I recall, you do).

There's nothing wrong with local time, and there are good reasons humans have used it literally for as long as we've had clocks. You are trading one mental adjustment -- "what time is it where Bob lives?" -- with a different one -- "what time is it where I am when the sun is directly overhead?" Guess which one you need to worry about more often?

And if you think adjusting to time zones is annoying now when traveling, imagine needing readjust your entire mental model of the solar day - where sunrise, noon, and sunset are on the clock. But hey, I guess you didn't need to adjust your watch. Hurray?

Local time is a "human sized" solution to the problem of timekeeping while UTC is a planet-sized solution to it.

Nonsense. Every single business has a list of their operating hours posted. Some open at 6am, some at 10am. Some are open on Sunday, others closed. Some close for certain holidays, others for others (or none). Some receive deliveries earlier than customers, others don't.

Most people in the US may not be accustomed to the idea of summer hours, but it's not a complicated idea and people would catch on pretty quickly.

You can't really use a wok on any home cooking appliances, regadless of heat source. The only exception are the specialized wok-specific ones some others mentioned, and even those kind of suck because they limit how much you can move the pan around.

I had a gas stovetop for years and a wok (both round and flat-bottom) was pitiful. There's a reason that restaurants basically use a 100K BTU jet engine to cook with a wok. Can you cook food in a wok on a standard stove? Sure. Will it ever be on par with asian restaurants? No. You're better off just using a griddle or flat frying pan on home stoves.

There's a whole Wikipedia page dedicated to it. You've damn well heard and seen most of these.

Conflating "you", as in the individual you are replying to, with "you", as in some loud or prevailing opinion out of a loosely defined group, is what leads to your angst.

The guy you replied to likely has a consistent opinion on this. I bet the loud voices that said this was bad for the US to do are also saying its bad for China to do. You're inventing an issue and displaying, once again, how ironic your name is. At least the mods see it for what it is (-1 right now).
