I absolutely agree with you there. For consumer space this merger doesn't make sense for Honda. For Nissan share holder, this is fantastic.. Only thing I can think of is Nissan has some EV tech that Honda could use but that's quite the stretch. Nissan actually jumped into EV relatively early but they didn't iterate on it quickly enough to matter. Honda has been dragging their feet on EV and they both completely missed the boat on bridge tech offering like plug in hybrid. This merger isn't going to do anything to fix that.

Since Nissan is now a low end brand and Honda is moving more towards premium side perhaps being together would cover the market segments better. The merger absolutely does nothing for the high end market though.

The one thing that I don't know anything about is the commercial market domestically in Japan. Perhaps Nissan has good market share which Honda could gain from this merger. Maybe someone could chime in on this.

I can imagine a headline "Republicans swiftly call for gun control measures after a senseless shooting of UnitedHealthCare CEO."

If those robo taxes are working off of similar system to their half baked self driving tech, it would be a disaster. I keep seeing videos of Waymo taxis clogging up the streets of San Francisco and those things have much better suite of sensors than Tesla. It's insane that our public road has become a alpha/beta testing platform for bunch of tech bros.

It boggles my mind why anyone would still be holding onto Tesla stock right now. The board and the Musk are actively trying to screw them over right now and one judge barely managed to prevent shareholders from getting shafted. How does it make any sense to hold onto Tesla shares at this point?

I used to hang out and chill on Titan whenever I was bored. Suddenly Bungie removed pretty much every content I ever purchased for the game including the god damn moon Titan. All the campaigns for base game and three DLCs I paid for were just gone. To add insult to injury they level capped the pinnacle gun I got from doing a PVP mission. Clearly Bungie doesn't give a shit about money and time I spent on the game so I bailed. I uninstalled the game and moved on four years ago.

Here is a video explaining the current situation regarding US and NATO greenlighting the use of long range weapons.

The point of allowing Ukraine to use these weapons isn't for Ukraine to strike deep into Russian territory. It is to deter Russia setting up logistics just across Ukraine and Russian border because they feel safe. This forces Russia to move their logistics centers further inward stretching out the line. Another reason mention in the video is to strike the bridge in the Kerch strait connecting Crimea and Russia.

NATO could have made this decision in secret and allow Ukrane to launch a surprise attack deep into Russia but that's not what's happening. It seems like everyone including PM of Canada is essentially broadcasting this new potential capability instead of keeping it a secret because NATO wants it to be a form of deterrent. This is why this is relatively safe move and will not escalate into anything bigger like a full on nuclear war.

This is going to get someone killed. At this point I think they're actively trying to get someone killed for a news cycle that's not about how awful Trump is doing.

The cardboard cut out would actually do better than Trump. It wouldn't get baited into talking about crowd size and then babbling conspiracy theory about some migrant eating dogs and cats.

Her statement was impeccable. She mentioned the AI generated fake image which appeared three weeks ago. This is the response that had to be made by her. She signed it Childless Cat Lady. Perfect.

This is strategically dumbest move he can make. Taylor Swift has been relatively quite for a while now regarding politics and now either she or her publicist is basically forced to respond to this. My best guess is Trump is trying to stir the pot to get any kind of attention but this isn't it.

Yikes. I feel sorry for all the help desk and support staff that has to deal with this chaotic mess all day.

This Chinese CPU and mobo is not meant to compete against Intel or AMD based system. This 4 core CPU is probably comparable to 2019 Intel or AMD CPU at best. This CPU meant for two markets, domestic Chinese consumers and Chinese government. The west sees China as emerging threat so they've been blocking lot of chip manufacturing tech and high end GPUs used for AI. The Chinese government wants to be less dependent on western technology and build their own domestic CPU. Also Chinese government may be paranoid about Intel IME and AMD ST spying on them so this CPU would alleviate that worry. Clearly it's not meant to be sold in mass to western consumers. If I had to guess actual competitive price of this CPU and mobo combo is around $150 at the most.
