In regards to some posts at the bottom of the previous page - lets avoid any political remarks please.

Also, in regards to there being a Coronavirus lab in Wuhan, that isn't conclusive evidence that it was leaked from that lab... I suppose you saw Jon Stewart's little skit on Stephen Colbert's show? Just to point out, there are often labs built in places relevant to the research that given lab is involved in.

E.g if you want to study ice sheets or things that involve the poles, you wouldn't build a base station or lab in the dessert, you'd do it in one of the poles.

New hominin discovered in China, probably even more closely related to modern humans than the Neanderthals were.

Tesla Cars are popular and dangerous in China! They're gaining more popularity for sure! What makes them dangerous there? According from this article I've readed recently:
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-06-26/tesla-to-recall-over-285-000-cars-in-china-on-autopilot-issues

The cars’ autopilot systems can be activated automatically, potentially leading to crashes from sudden acceleration (copied from that article)!

Oh I see! I read into it a bit more and looked like it was more a case of Autopilot being easily switched on by mistake - not sure how or if to enable it is different than North America as over here at least there's been no complaints that a driver can enable it by accident too easily.

Glad to see they're software patching it though remotely :D

Having whipped up a world-class, long distance high speed rail network in just a decade or so, China now plans a maglev link between Beijing and Shanghai... travelling at speeds of up to 600 km/h (373 mph) over the 1300km route.
