I think you refer to the often discussed "big cough" origin theory of the universe?

No one here is trying to write a treatise on how nations should interact. India is it's own story, don't muddle waters by slinging random and unrelated "but-what-abouts" into the discussion.

I've seen plenty of small "Euro-sized" cars pull fully loaded horse trailers, so I suspect weight is not much of an issue. You need to get power on the road, and for that bulkyness of the frame is hardly the main factor.

You wouldn't believe it, but they routinely haul these over major alpine passes. Works well on climbs, but sharp corners and switchbacks require careful handling, causing everyone else a bit of grief.

Thanks for the links!

I suspect that hardly any mass market consumer cared about security, sadly. And what exactly do you mean with "functional design"? It's all slabs of screen with a charging port across the industry these days, or did you mean any features added/missing?

Samsung Note 10 and others have a barometric sensor, though I'm not aware of any app using them. Which might explain their removal, sadly.

Sounds like interesting reading, could you please add a link or reference?

I think a key benefit here is that the pre-registration allows for faster processing at the border itself, cutting down on queues at the airport. Singapore runs a system where after preregistration you can just walk through an automated (though somewhat finicky) scanner. No queues after arrival, I basically stepped off the international flight and went straight to the city with barely a wait.

Of course the comments on my local news site immediately filled with people sitting about the dangers of electric cars... Not a good look for convincing people to switch to EVs. Though I do wonder how this will affect insurance premiums and subsequent shipping cost for manufacturers?

Kurzer Hijack: ich stehe vor einem Umzug und rechne damit, dass die Umstellung vom Internet in der neuen Wohnung ein paar Wochen brauchen wird. Der Normalzustand sind eine Synology NAS, Raspberry Pi mit Pihole und ein PC, die über einen ETH Switch an einer Fritzbox hängen. Mein Gedanke war jetzt, einfach ein LTE Modem an die Fritzbox zu klemmen und darüber die Außenverbindung zu bestreiten, bis mein Anschluss umgezogen ist. Sind Reiserouter ein sinnvoller Übergang, um meine Heiminfrastruktur in der Zwischenzeit ans Netz zu hängen?

I was about to advise you to chill a bit, then saw your username and now am sort of impressed by such staunch commitment to being pissed off.
