I can find parts for Ford, GM, Chrysler, Toyota, Mazda, etc all made in China. Why does it work for American and foreign companies making every part they sell in China but it wouldn’t work for a Chinese company
And, if that is the case, wouldn’t it make more sense to just force them to establish some corporate headquarters in the USA (as they rest of the brands do)?
Again, not sure why you are so certain about that when China is already manufacturing the parts for the companies you trust to have them
Good to know you can now uninstall them. I think my son has a Samsung now, I can check with him.
Why? doesn’t Toyota, Kia, Hyundai, SaaB and all the non-American brands already do this? why would China not be able to do it?
A ton of the parts for the American cars actually come from China, why would it be harder for China to do what they already do on behalf of the American manufacturers?
Ok without devolving to ridicule every message, the point it that just because stuff is made in China, it is not necessarily cheap (as in crappy, low quality or unsafe).
I’d like to know what is unsafe about these cars and whether or not this is a real consideration. So far, all I seem to get is protectionism and platitudes.
I returned my last Samsung because it was riddled with bloatwear that could not be disabled or uninstalled
Facebook was one such app, if I disabled it, it would re-enable itself on reboots
And it wasn’t even a cheap phone
I bought an umidigi Bison Pro 3, years ago. It’s still going strong with no noticeable issues
I tried to get a custom ROM but they don’t seem to exist, people call this a garbage brand (it may be, I don’t know) but it has served me well and I’m happy to have paid $250 for a fast phone so I can constantly chat with my wife and browse Lemmy… Why would I pay $1000 for a “flagship” phone to do those 2 same, completely non critical, tasks?
Not necessarily. China makes all the fancy stuff Americans are super proud of.
If safety were a real issue, the gov wouldn’t have attempted to ban them based on tariffs
Ps: your entire first paragraph could have been about American meat processors and I wouldn’t have noticed
You are correct, but that has happened with American brands (even cars) before
At half the price of other EVs, I bet an entire new class of service stores, half mechanic shop, half third party parts, half mods, would spring into existence if these cars are allowed in the market
Instead, we protect the horrible local brands
I watch V for Vendetta every November
I have watched SnowPiercer at least 6 times (and yes, I totally belive it is a sequel to Willy Wonka)
That or they are holding for evidence as cops seem to lie all the fucking time
While I agree we need more, this may not sound like much to you or me… but a SCOTUS judge saying it basically states he already has made up his mind about where he stands before even taking the case. They are supposed to be impartial at all times
These companies do not make profit in paper but have already made millions for others.
It’s all smoke and mirrors
… To the surprise of <checks notes> absolutely nobody
Actually I have a question and I admit knowing nothing of the legal framework here but…
Isn’t it absolutely ridiculous that a not-for-profit entity can exists solely for the purpose of developing a closed-source piece of software, demand to train it for free off copyrighted material, just to switch to a for-profit entity??
Sound 100% like tax avoidance. Like me registering a charity so I can throw a mega concert/party privately, secure preferencial treatment on supplies, get discounts on artists or even free performance and then switch to for profit as I start selling tickets

Why does everyone here in Lemmy feel it’s an affront to disagree or clarify something?!
I do not care to continue to bend over backwards to interpret and conjure what possible sense Trump may have had. He is spewing hateful bullshit and I will not indulge him filling the blanks. If you want to keep on translating for Trump, that’s on you
I’ve attempted to educate.
Yeah, I’m the pedantic one here…
I have work in the medical field for 20 years; I have yet to hear anyone refer to a dead fetus removal as an abortion. Abortion is defined as the “termination of pregnancy”… when a fetus dies for natural causes, the pregnancy has been terminated; any and all procedures afterwards to safeguard the life of the mother are NOT considered an abortion.
Well, if she wants to tattoo Trump’s death year, it’s her problem
But then, how tariffs make all those dangers OK?
