Well, probably an AI translation. Some quite colorful phrasing in there, actually makes for a interesting break from the generic news channel tone. The hashtags are fun too: there are an “volcanic eruption”, a “Tsunami” and “locust invades” tucked away in the SEO tags.

I think you refer to the often discussed “big cough” origin theory of the universe?

No one here is trying to write a treatise on how nations should interact. India is it’s own story, don’t muddle waters by slinging random and unrelated “but-what-abouts” into the discussion.

Thanks for the links!

Sounds like interesting reading, could you please add a link or reference?

Yeah, guess what number was not clarified in the news article? Of course it reads as if 3000 EVs spontaneously combusted… Though from initial reports it looks as if the fire might have been started by one EV. Nuance quickly goes overboard in newspaper comment sections.

Of course the comments on my local news site immediately filled with people crying about the dangers of electric cars… Not a good look for convincing people to switch to EVs. Though I do wonder how this will affect insurance premiums and subsequent shipping cost for manufacturers?

Actually I like having a “smaller” space. Reddit was already way too big, with an anonymous giant blob of users. I wouldn’t even have bothered writing an answer like I do now, since it would have been buried under 100s of other posts and comments within seconds. Sometimes smaller and slower are positive features, at least to me.
