German EV production is too expensive, they need to cut on additional options and quality of materials. Electric BMW X3 is just a joke in China on it's price point.
I would agree, except the seller seems to have made a new forgery of their receipt on the fly in response to Cabel's inquiry, which leads me to believe they probably made the original forgery as well.
It's obvious Egyptians could carve granite using stone instruments. What is worth more investigation, is how they carved symmetric granite vases within 1/100th of an inch precision.
nowadays, when people need precision to 1/100th of an "inch" (250μm in modern units) on soft materials like unhardened steel, they can use steel tools
but when they need precision of 1μm or better (in medieval units, 1/25000th of an "inch"), or when they're cutting materials harder than steel, they resort to grinding with stone, typically emery (sapphire) for most of the grinding, followed by polishing. poor people who don't have steel tools also commonly do this for lower-precision work in soft materials; you can find all kinds of videos on youtube of people using angle grinders for things that a well-equipped machine shop would do with a bandsaw or milling machine
similarly, to get the dimensional references to measure to, common shop work can use cast-iron straight edges. but, for more precise work, they resort to granite surface plates
the egyptians of the old kingdom clearly had granite surface plates (they built significant parts of the pyramids' interiors out of them) and grinding, though they were evidently using the inferior quartz sand as their abrasive
as for symmetry, the most likely explanation is that they used lathes; the oldest indisputable records of lathes are from new kingdom egypt, but rotationally symmetric work that seems to have been made on a lathe appears as far back as the old kingdom
with respect to granite, while i don't doubt that you can find a granite vase here and there, most ancient egyptian fine stone carvings are from much softer rocks such as schist, alabaster (gypsum), and "alabaster" (calcite)
so i would say the investigation has already been done and found convincing answers

I think a lot of data collection is done a bit like research is. The purposes are unclear, but the sea of data might become useful later on. Time might reveal trends, certain now-insignificant people might become significant, new data mining tools might be discovered that highlight something useful, things like this.
Volvo Cars AB is a publicly traded Swedish company traded on the Stockholm stock exchange.
They have to comply with all relevant Swedish laws for a public Swedish company and all requirements imposed by the Stockholm stock exchange.
Geely Holding owns 82% of Volvo Cars AB according to recent data. Swedish pension companies AMF and Folksam are second and third largest owner with 3.8% and 2.0% of the votes.
So while Geely of course has a massive influence on the company, they can not do whatever they want, they have to abide by the rules and respect the other owners as well, and the other owners are also present on eg the board
Tesla knows exactly how industry works, this is why their cars are good and everybody wants to buy them. If the workers doesn't like the reality, they could just change their job.
They're attacking the Swedish model, doing things that no one had done for a century. It's not illegal to bring in local strike breakers (aka scabs) because it's so extremely frowned upon that no one did it anyway. You made your argument the wrong way around - if Tesla don't like the Swedish culture and customs, they can move to a different country.
Americans would go crazy if some swedes swooped in and tried to change fundamental mechanics of the US culture and system from abroad.
An example needs to made here and that's why the other unions are joining in. Your beloved role model will end up with egg on his face.
