I know this is a joke… But just in case:

You know that you can turn off automatic updates, right?

More like “breakes”, amirite?

I cut the piezoelectric speaker off of mine. It now doesn’t make any beeping noises, which is nice.

I take the 25 cents per step, thank you very much. Being paid for going on long walks with my girlfriend and friends? That sounds nice.

Their high speed train network is impressive, but none of it was new technology when they built it. The first train sets they bought were Siemens Velaro D, a mature high speed train system that has been around in Europe for almost a decade prior.

It ISN’T cost effective, but in China that doesn’t matter: what the state wants the state gets. No matter the cost. And I’m willing to bet that in 10 years time a lot of the stuff just doesn’t work anymore, line speeds get reduced and stops cancelled due to infrastructure not being maintained.

We have seen chinese prestige projects fall into disrepair time and again, and their extensive transport network will see the same fate.

Lego’s competition has been improving their quality in the last few years, to a point where I’d argue some are on par or better (Cobi, Mould King, Xingbao).

At the same time Lego has started to produce in China like almost any other competitor and their quality has lapsed somewhat. Especially color accuracy has allegedly been shite, even in some VERY expensive sets.

Lego just isn’t worth an almost 100% premium, imo. If you’re in Europe check out Bluebrixx and Cobi. One makes licensed Star Trek sets, the other licensed cars like Škoda, Opel, Fiat, and others.

Have you watched a game of Association Football (or real football) lately? They digitally alter the ads on physical LED banners for different broadcast regions.

She’s born in Oakland, CA. Where did she illegally migrate to?

Mandarins, but close enough.

Is the same true for a blue lives matter shirt, I wonder?

The theoretical energy density assumes no cryogenic tanks, no plumbing, and no fuel cells. Also the production, storage, and transfer of Hydrogen as a fuel is INCREDIBLY inefficient.
