WAY too many popups. If they can’t build the needed microcircuits, they’ll have to go back to the way cars were built in the 1960’s. And with inflation the way it is, who will be able to afford cars? They should have thought this through before making a public statement as it shows how disconnected they are from the reality on the ground.

Biden will only support putting trans sex workers in grade and kindergarten schools.

So far as I can tell the Soviet assembly plants use engines and transmissions imported from overseas. Looks like they need to spin up their heavy industrial and machining capability.

That’ll just take a few decades.

Putin was supposed to be in a coma. Maybe he got better.

So far I can tell Volkswagen, Fiat&Chrysler and Mazda used to import engines made in Russia.

They might sell more cars if they stop making the camshafts out of bakelite.

No sympathy for Putin but if inter-country trade makes each individual country unable to survive without materials from other countries, it’s not a good thing.

I have a condom over the mouse. What sort of protection are you referencing?

Kadyrov was the one spreading the coma rumors. But in today’s video where Putin was scolding a room full of supposed auto execs, Putin had his bloat on big time. Not looking healthy at all.
