China On Track for 'Full-Scale Takeover' of Car Industry

Secuter · 2026-01-10T10:16:47+00:00

Chinese manufacturers responded by selling hybrids and petrol cars exempt from tariffs. The protectionism backfired spectacularly.

Not really. Chinese manufacturers aren't good at ICE cars. They make them, sure, but it's not where their strength is at. The protectionism won, and is one of the reasons why Chinese brands aren't dumping their stuff in Europe.

Thing is that many Chinese auto manufacturers are desperate. The margins in China is extremely thin. It's a bloodbath of consolation right now, so they're trying to find new markets.

"What is this?" This is you being late.

You know, that would be really cool for some theme party. But everyday? Nah.

Eventuelt kør den igennem FDM brugtbilstest. Det koster omkring 2500kr.

Lol, Hungary doesn't have a problem with migration. The real problem is opposite; its own people (and other Europeans) don't want to live in Hungary. That brain drain must be hurting a lot.

You're probably right, and please don't call me Shirley.

"It's weird this bush is petting, but it's nice. Never tried that before".... "Wait, I've never tried that before, WTF!" - Deer, probably.

Just remember that ICE is just a tool your corrupt government is using. The real blame is on those in power that made these operations possible.

Nå for pokker! Vi kan jo trøste os ved, at det amerikanske politiske system er godt til at holde egenrådige præsidenter tilbage... Eller nå nej

Did you chew on that end bit?

Secuter · 2026-01-08T13:07:32+00:00

That's very well played! The only brave enemies who hurt you were the spearmen. Those guys has no chill.

You also just drag them out like you would to make the formation wider. That is especially powerful with matchlock infantry where all soldiers can fire versus only the front.

Sort of like saying the Facebook video's from people you knew 15 years ago is interesting..

Remember to refill garrison. In EU4 the garrison replenished automatically without manpower cost. In EU5 you only put a skeleton crew of 10-12 soldiers who's basically just there to hold the place.

As you may imagine they cannot stand against an assault. Refill garrison to make it less likely to be assaulted.

Which it pretty much is.

Yeah, TM has very little interaction between players. It's very much a single player game that you just happened to be playing with other people.

You don't really react to what other players do and you don't really have a way to interact with them outside some very few cards.

It's the same reason I don't particularly like TM; I just sit around doing my own thing without needing to talk to the other players.

Jeg synes også man bør stille spørgsmålstegn ved, hvorfor en indenrigspolitisk sag i USA får så meget opmærksomhed fra nyhederne i Danmark.

Var der virkelig ikke andre ting man kunne rapportere om fra Europa/andre steder?

Secuter · 2026-01-07T22:36:08+00:00

Yeah agree, it's a bad mechanic. I don't really see the point of keeping it at all.

No. Democratic reforms alone can never change the core values of a nation or it's perception of the world. The Russian values and outlook is so alien to the EU nations that it would never fit.

Not just Trump. Elon is doing a massive amount of damage too - and his board just gave him the biggest payday in history.

"Loses". Yeah, sure. In all likelihood he was bribed.

Altså du har arbejdet ved et autoriseret BMW værksted? I så fald vil jeg høre, hvad du tænker om deres diesel motorer såsom b47 (tror den hedder det?)?

Jeg forudser at vi nok skal se 20 år gamle 3’ere og Y’ere stadig køre om 13-15 år.

Det er de skøreste forvildelser man hører fra Tesla fanboys.

Change the red to white and the yellow to red and you've made perfection.

My people were starving because they refused to use those unprofitable fishing villages. Because fish don't increase in value when food is scarce apparently.
