Yes

Depends on the topless woman, really. Sydney Sweeney - yes; Vicky Nuland or Nancy Pelosi - not so much.

Nancy Pelosi - not so much.

Things that can't be unseen. Even the thought of it is already pushing it.

Less than two weeks ago, another Ford plant had a fire accident which the company says is costing them $1-2b/mo as well as aluminum shortages due to which they are forced to suspend sales and production of their most profitable vehicle - the F-150. Also, COO is Indian.

You forgot the most important, pressing concern: is the Ford CEO's Xiaomi SU7 okay?

US Army asking its soldiers stationed in Germany to beg German food banks for food. I'm starting to think that the speed which US is imploding far exceeded China's expectations. It's to the point where China needs to figure out a way to slow down US's implosion. Maybe that's why China let Trump off relatively easy during the trade talks.

It seems the Trump regime has over-interpreted China's intention. According to Reuters, China has not repealed the rare earth regulations established in April.

US gets rare earth reprieve from China, but not rollback​

...
However, the pause appears to leave in place restrictions introduced in April which control exports of seven rare earths and, notably, the rare earth magnets crucial to automakers, defence companies and chipmakers.

Nvidia's Jensen Huang: 'China is going to win the AI race,' FT reports​

(Reuters) -Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has warned that China will beat the United States in the artificial intelligence race, the Financial Times reported on Wednesday.

"China is going to win the AI ‌race," Huang told the newspaper on the sidelines of the Financial Times' Future of ‌AI Summit.

The artificial intelligence chip leader's chief in October said that the U.S. can win the AI battle if the world, including China's massive developer base, runs on Nvidia systems. He, however, lamented that the Chinese ⁠government has shut it out ‌of its market.

China’s access to advanced AI chips, particularly those produced by Nvidia — the world’s most valuable company ‍by market capitalization — remains a flashpoint in its tech rivalry with the United States, as both nations vie for supremacy in cutting-edge computing and artificial intelligence.

"We want America to win this AI race. No doubt about that," ‌Huang said in the Nvidia developers' conference held in Washington last month.

"We want the world to be built on American tech stack. Absolutely the case. But we also need to be in China to win their developers. A policy that causes America to lose half of the world's AI developers is ⁠not beneficial in the long term, it hurts us more," he added.

U.S. President Donald Trump said in an interview aired on Sunday that Nvidia's most advanced Blackwell chips should be reserved exclusively for American customers.

Nvidia ‍has not applied for ⁠U.S. export licenses to sell the chips in China, citing Beijing's stance toward the company, CEO Jensen Huang previously said.

Trump added ⁠that Washington would allow China to engage with Nvidia, but "not in terms of the ‌most advanced" semiconductors.

Nvidia is scared of Chinese alternatives and wants to dump western chips in China to try and destroy domestic Chinese firms. Exactly why i think the people complaining about China not getting chip export controls relief a week ago were short sighted.

U.S. can win the AI battle if the world, including China's massive developer base, runs on Nvidia systems. He, however, lamented that the Chinese ⁠government has shut it out ‌of its market.

"We want the world to be built on American tech stack. Absolutely the case. But we also need to be in China to win their developers. A policy that causes America to lose half of the world's AI developers is ⁠not beneficial in the long term, it hurts us more,"
