Fuck the CCP. Just leave us alone.

Wait, what does the truck use right now for fuel? Isn’t diesel flammable?

Thanks for the context. Just seems like there are so many articles about BYD lately.

So many Chinese bots lately.

Google definitely has better face recognition. You can pick up a QNAP and put a Google coral and essentially do the same thing.

I also run a 3rd party software that does the tagging. But it’s annoying to do each time.

This is my setup using the 3, 2, 1 rule:

3: Raid 5 setup with 2 unused drives and setup to automatically spool up and recover if one of the drives starts failing. 2: off-site at the father in laws house (using a Xpenology super tiny PC and an external drive) 1: Monthly Backblaze

While there is risk, it’s def safer if not safer than Google drive.

I will get downvoted for this but a Synology Nas is simple and does 90% of what google will do. They also have their own DDNS or you can use whatever you like.

Downside is tou have to buy their hardware. Unless you do the Xpenology route.

That’s true.

How? Teslas that are sold in China are made in China. BYD sold in the UK are made in China.

That’s fantastic that the CCP is creating the infrastructure to switch over to EV. It STILL doesn’t change the fact that they are intentionally dumping on the competition.

Also requiring the public to switch to EVs non organically has repercussions as well. https://www.bloomberg.com/features/2023-china-ev-graveyards/

The company you work for saw subsidized money for more e-waste and what the (fuck)CCP did actually increase greenhouse gases.

Other notable CCP fuckups are…

1 child policies Covid lockdowns And my personal favorite: The Four Pest Campaign (which led to one of the biggest famine) https://youtu.be/ojOmUWLDG18?si=1OXqD3bXpWVI5RI2

Also keep in mind that the (fuck) CCP intentionally heavily subsidized in an effort to dump on all its competitors in different countries.

Cars are regularly sold at half the cost just to kill all competition. You’re going to eventually sell more cars than your competitor.

I switched my house to 10gbe & 2.5gbe and never looked back. Not only is it fast, it’s so much more stable. I still have 1gbe for things like PoE cameras but man. My network is rock solid.

Ya, the ROIs are terrible and when we stop our spend on reddit, our sales don’t decrease when we cut spend. At least for enterprise level SaaS products, it’s basically a donation to their company with no gains.

Good. Nobody should use TikTok.

Best selling doesn’t mean they are great cars. Teslas are garbage cars too. The best selling cars again, doesn’t mean they are superior cars.

All cars are prone to fire. But BYD have already had a recall for their batteries. https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/fans-take-byd-task-recall-confusion-clouds-chinese-ev-makers-image-2022-06-30/

BYD still uses the standard lithium ion batteries. Tesla now uses lithium iron phosphate batteries, if you didn’t know it is considered the safest battery.

I will agree that you and I are experts in this field, but you have to acknowledge that China is intentionally dumping these cars with the intent to kill off competition and gain market share.

No, after porn instances got defederated from other instances, I just picked the instance that hasn’t defederated any instances which happens to be the porn instances. I figured it’s the least censored. If I wanted to be censored, I would just go back to reddit.

I wouldn’t go all out saying all Chinese made things are garbage. The majority of cellphones are produced there and many of them are not garbage.

I know they are dominating the market. But I’m explaining why they are. It’s NOT because they make superior cars Each car is sold at a loss with the funding/backing of the China government with the sole purpose to dump(kill domestic competition).

Amazon prime sorta did this on a micro scale. Dump their pricing to kill Barnes and Noble and after they go out of business, they open and replace them with their own stores. But instead of Amazon funding the dump, it’s the god damn CCP and our entire auto industry.

You are either not informed or TikTok has brain washed you. BYD leads the pack for most battery related fires than any other car manufacturer.

Sorta both I guess. It’s mostly designed for recovery protection but on the off chance we can’t recover data, we pay out money if we can’t. I don’t think we would pay out if it’s stolen but they will were able to recover the data.

The company I work for spends ads on social media companies for ransomware protection and regularly spend is regularly negative. That means we spend more money on advertising than we do in income. We only do it to maintain some market share but otherwise it’s just a pure loss on that platform.
