More than one in three Americans support insanity running the federal government!
USA is both despicable, and the clown of the world.

It is not who owns the company that matters, but that they are made in China, and how much the factory has been subsidiced. The Tavascan is built on a Chinese owned factory, where VW has a minority ownership.
I was not aware of the 10% base duty for all cars into EU.
But the rates you state are general for a brand, but do not account for per model negotiations:

Carmakers can now negotiate tariff exemptions for individual electric models imported from China.
Cupra Tavascan has achieved a 0% duty, and Tesla is 7.8%.
I suspect several of the more popular Chinese models, have negotiated lower rates too.
Interesting how different Ryzen and Core Ultra have become, Ryzen with 6 dual threaded cores, and Intel with 6 P cores and 12 E cores that are all single threaded. Intel clearly win the overall performance here, which they should with 3 times as many cores and 50% higher power consumption, and that considered Intel multi threading is a bit underwhelming compared to AMD IMO.
With the 50% higher power draw om the Intel, you need a way better cooler, or it will get noisy under high loads.
I guess both CPU's are good options, but personally I kind of favor the AMD as a more elegant solution IMO, and also longer motherboard lifespan, that probably will make it possible to make a cheap upgrade in a couple of years, just swapping the CPU for something twice as powerful.
On my current but ancient 350B motherboard, I'm on my third updated Ryzen CPU! Starting at a modest Ryzen R5 1600, and now I have an R7 5800X. Which is still modest, but good enough for me.
Ai work is usually very low precision.

I don't understand how FP4 is useful for anything, unless I misunderstand it only uses 4 bits, and with 4 bit's you can only have 16 different values?! With FP4 this is even reduced to 15 values as the first digit signifies negative, so 0000 and 1000 are both zero.
If you are in the USA, I think so. Probably including January and February.
The illegal war against Iran however, could throw the global economy into a recession very quickly.
And the only ones to blame are Israel and USA.
How does Trump idiocy suddenly reflect on Iran losing the narrative?
Seems to me that Iran has taken control of the narrative, while USA and Israel are losing it completely.
OK, obviously I mean you can't contain it 100% like with other things. Hydrogen will always slowly seep out of any container.
I have edited the post to reflect the 100%, specifically in your honor.
I never claimed you can't store Hydrogen, it's not a big problem for short term storage, but you can't store it like you can everything else.
Transport will always be necessary, and we've done it with oil based fuels for more than a century.
Even electricity requires transportation through wires, to charge an EV, and when charged the car needs to transport the electricity with it in a battery.
AFAIK the waste transporting electricity in the electric grid is about 10% on average.
But I agree that the way we transport electricity is way more elegant and practical.
Wow they did not last long.
