Your problem is that you’re working backwards. Is the “correct” price for youtube premium the US/EU price, and the rest of the world is getting a discount? No! Of course not! If that were the case then Google would be losing money on every single third world youtube user!
The “correct” price is something much, much lower, and the people in the most expensive regions are being gouged because they can afford it.
Well one is talking about a personal buyer choosing to buy a $200 HDMI cable that cost $0.50 to manufacture and spent $5 on marketing, and the other is talking about Chinese companies investing millions of dollars into shipping goods across the Pacific potentially deciding that the risk of their deliveries not being able to be made is more than the gains of selling them in that particular country, so they’re not related concepts at all.
True. Over the past ten years, China has invested something like a trillion dollars into renewable energy through a combination of their state enterprises and public-private partnerships, and this is just one of the ways they’re reaping the dividends of that investment.
When a driver enters their automated station, the station will connect directly to the vehicle, drive and park it at the platform, have the depleted battery be dropped out from the bottom of the vehicle and replaced it with a fully charged battery while charging the user’s account — all within three minutes. The driver doesn’t even need to control or step out of the car.
That’s really cool, although I maintain that for urban travel the scooters with the hot-swappable battery under the seat are the ideal solution.
52% of all trips made are less than 3 miles and less than 2% are over fifty miles
I got a Chevy Volt based on this premise, and it’s true! I barely touched my car’s ICE until I moved further out into the sticks (running away from rising rents) and even way out here most of my trips are to the grocery store or post office and don’t need it.
I guess the idea is that it’s an entire imac but in a VR form factor, trouble was they didn’t have anywhere near the app support that you would need to make that idea work
I gotta wonder, the more this kind of stuff picks up steam the more risky Chinese companies are going to view investing in American exports. When, if ever, do we reach the tipping point where Chinese companies currently selling things that simply aren’t produced in America anymore stop sending them because the risk is too high?
I agree in principle but if we’re going to do it we should target all disinformation equally, and that would mean that far more american content would get blocked than russian content.
This week in “simulations trying to mimic reality end up showing why the socialists are right”
Normhub, the hub for normal videos.
Yeah but most people don’t know what their bed capacity is and they never test it. Maybe something like the old Ranger is the optimal size truck for the average person, but our politicians wrote environmental standards which somehow incentivize making the biggest vehicles that can possibly fit on the road instead of making reasonably sized vehicles but with more efficient engines.
I would love a Kei truck, but I don’t live in a state where you can legally have one. That said I really think that if a Japanese manufacturer brought a barebones electric Kei to the American market they could make a killing because “people who want a truck but not a massive truck” is a totally unserved market segment.
Ever since the first version of this video came out I’ve been a Dishwasher Evangelist. At my parents’ house I regularly pack it full and get perfectly clean dishes an hour later with no rinsing or anything - but I swear to god I have seen them hand wash dishes with soap and then put them in the dishwasher to be washed again and when I point out that they don’t need to do all of that they get mad at ME for trying to save them time, water, and energy.
I’ve been driving Linux for about a year now, I ended up switching to Debian because I don’t want my programs updating with bleeding edge releases that can break things. The coolest part about Linux is that you can choose like that.
If Twitter introduced blackjack it would be the worst blackjack game ever - automatic shufflers, 1:1 BJ pays, no DAS, no RSA, no surrender, $1 ante per hand, and $50 minimum bet.
Dicks in the posts, pussies in the bio.
This isn’t a huge deal yet but I suspect that if it becomes a huge deal we might see companies start trying to verify their oldest accounts.
casino
lmao get fucked
I can’t think of a better endorsement, tbh.
