I’m an employee in the U.S., working for a large international shipping company with a yellow and red logo. We’ve been struggling to maintain profitability stateside since the COVID shipping boom ended. Shein and Temu are basically keeping the U.S. operation afloat making up a significant double digit percentage of our revenue currently.
We can’t compete domestically as our rates are sky high compared to brown and purple and we’ve become overly dependent on these Chinese retailers. I’d say this is a good signal to find a new gig.
Apparently, Harris is fond of “motherfucker.”
This…. ^motherfucker… former president.
Many of us who live in the U.S. feel the same way.
About as many corners as were cut in the construction of the Galactica.
It’s called “The Handmaids Tale”.
They made it in book and TV show form. Minus the birth problems which kick off the societal change in that story, we’re quickly headed for it.
Annoyingly, many vehicles sold in the U.S. don’t have a tow rating except for large SUV’s and trucks. It makes it difficult to know if you can safely tow a trailer with your small crossover.
I owned a Honda HR-V a few years ago. In Europe, it was rated for around 1,500 lbs. In the U.S., they just slap “not recommended for towing” on it and tell you to buy something larger.
In what world should anyone be criticized for not being early enough? I agree if you’re not early, you’re late.
But for fucks sake, five minutes, ten minutes, fifteen minutes, whatever… dude sounds like an asshole.
80m² = 860ft² for those of us in countries who perpetuate inferior measurement systems.
860ft² is extremely small compared to the average American home of 2,480ft².
All of the vehicles in the article were pre-delivery. As they were still owned by Tesla, it falls on the company to repair them.
I’m not justifying vandalism, but the impact to the buyer is a delayed delivery vs a monetary and PR impact to Tesla.
The Boca Chica test site in Texas is built immediately adjacent to a protected wildlife preserve. This is the site where SpaceX has been working on the Starship launch vehicle.
The second part about failing is extreme hyperbole. SpaceX is the most successful launch company in human history by any reasonable metric. I’d argue Musks distance from the company in recent years has helped.
