World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Ppfffff hahaha that is ridiculous.
Yes they made videos.
No they have not successfully made an even decent electric car with any range yet in China.
Geez way to spread unsubstantiated propaganda about a product from China with an abysmal track record so far.
I mean... I own a BYD in Australia. It's got 400 km range and it's the cheap, low range model. With a 5 star safety rating.
What was that you were saying about unsubstantiated propaganda?
That I would like sources rather than unsubstantiated propaganda.
Anecdotes are fun, though.
Which byd do you have?
An Atto 3. Is that relevant?
You're making a blanket statement that none of something exists, so a single example existing is actually a sufficient counterpoint. We're not arguing numbers, we don't need to establish statistical significance.
Woo, bit defensive. Yea, who needs numbers anyway?
I think if you're sharing an anecdote about the car you own that you have not mentioned you are satisfied with but are presumably attempting to make some undefined point by mentioning, yes, the model is relevant.
My initial comment(about the article) does not express that evs do not exist in China, it expresses that the article is incredibly and embarassingly overreaching in it's effusive praise for completely unsubstantiated in-house marketing for theorized future products from one of the least reliable industries in China.
Dude, you raslly look pathetic on this argument, just give up.
Very convincing.
Think I'll just continue to be correct and you can dance along to the merry tune of everyone else who doesn't know what they're talking about.
It looks like you think the Chinese cars are all like that car meme "Alibaba $2000 Chang li"
The byd Atto 3 is comparable in build quality and in range to a Volkswagen id4 while costing 10k less
Nope, i was talking about actual EVs, not the little farm trucks.
That's good to hear about the atto 3, first Chinese ev I've heard any firsthand consumer praise for. Do you have one yourself?
Thanks.
I tried the Atto 3 and it's really nice, luxurious. But there's no way that I'm paying 40k for something that launched in my country one month ago
Yea, the newcomer status of these vehicles is a red flag for sure.
It'll be interesting to see these reviews with a few years of hindsight.
What do you mean by luxurious with regard to the Atto3? I have not driven one yet, although I am heading to China again in January.
the driving seat was like a leather couch, with comfy armrests
probably the european dealer chose the highest trim possible in order to justify the 40k price tag. I don't know others, but for me paying 40k to be a beta tester... uhm...
Yea, that's tricky, especially from such a volatile industry in the first place with no historical certainty about the manufacturing or safety data that was provided before the EU did their own safety tests on the newer exported models.
With that said, I have a leather-upholstered compact SUV right now and I do love that, so will definitely try the atto3 if it's near where I'm staying when I visit, although a domestic product in China is often nothing like the exported product.
I'd love it if the atto 3 was the first legitimate an independently ratified step into the internal ev industry, but I'll take all of these new reviews with a grain of salt until they're a few years in without major incident.
Source?
Just hoping for info about China’s Ev. Never mind. I’ll look it up.
Oh you answered yourself in this comment chain earlier, not me, so I didn't see you were looking for information or I would've sent you some.
It's a cool itndustry to look into, enjoy.
For what, specifically?
