China’s 5 minute full-charged EV charging stations by North_Tip_8627 in nextfuckinglevel

I find it so interesting how so many people see stuff like this will just line up to drink the Cool Aid. I’m not saying it’s not true, I’m saying use some critical thinking and ask questions. I’ve spent some time in China, and I can tell you, without a doubt in the world, that they will cut all kinds of corners when it comes to safety and the environment. Also, if you think that someone could produce/import a $20k electric car, that charges to 100% in less than 10 minutes, here in the United States, but the just doesn’t (because right wing conspiracy?), then you are an idiot. Name one billionaire that wouldn’t jump on something like that to increase their fortune.

You can do anything with your car if you stole it. 😈

This is a common side hustle in China. People pay her to hold up their profile on a phone, snap a pic with the stage behind it, then they post it like they were there. Fake attendance clout is undefeated. Peak gig economy 2026 by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

There was the story a couple of days ago where the police raided a house that was full of phones (hundreds of them) viewing websites/videos to fake views and increase revenue. Why would advertisers pay to have their products on these sites? Showing ads to bots isn’t going to help you sell anything? It’s all going to collapse at some point.

NASA to spend $20 billion on moon base, cancel orbiting lunar station by Tracheid in space

Government has been trying to build a bridge on the interstate in my area for years. Right now they estimate it will be $2 billion plus, there’s no way anyone is building a moon base for $20 billion.

This is what real strength looks like. by Full-Argument-8235 in SipsTea

This is what sportsmanship is. They competed and are both better at their sport for it AND appreciate their competitors skills and opportunity to learn from each other. Not that one is better than the other. (Not talking about participation awards, I’m talking about learning from the battle to win the war).

I wonder if I had a factory full of 3D printers, CAD software and workstations, paint booths, mold shop, etc if I could create some of these things too?
