OK admittedly it’s not really relevant, it was merely a joke.
But you can’t honestly claim to not have seen those moronic posts about how China never invents anything and only steal their technologies from the west.
They are so common it’s insanely tiresome. In this thread there are none, maybe because in this case China obviously developed and invented it themselves.

Absolutely, China being communist makes them the enemy.
But to be fair, capitalism is also a declared enemy to communist countries.
Both are equally wrong.

Yes I’ve seen something in that line of thinking as well. But even if China has schools that are not top notch, they have sent students to other countries to learn for about 50 years. And their own top schools are among the best in the world now.

#11 in Hong Kong and #13 in Peking.
IDK if the list is entirely fair, I imagine having a good and long track record could have an influence.
China has been investing heavily in research and education, several times more than what we do in Europe and USA.
So it’s no wonder they are catching up, and even passing us now.

Funny to see how we both got a downvote? 😋🤣
Maybe someone still believing in the superiority of the west, which clearly we don’t have a monopoly on anymore, China has caught up, exactly as Japan and Korea have done before China.

In b4.
Now that does it! I’ve simply had enough of China stealing our technology.
They’ve been doing it for decades, but now they are stealing our technologies before we have them ourselves!! 😡
The worst thing is I now have to hear about how this was never invented in China anyway, and without the west 1.4 billion Chinese people could never have invented anything, because they are too stupid.

EDIT PS: For some reason OP edited the headline to be WRONG.
The correct headline is:

China: Researchers transmit a whooping 51.3Tb/s through an optical fiber channel

1.2 Tb/s is per wavelength, which is normal to have multiple of. And has been tested up to 51.3Tb/s over a distance of roughly 128 miles.

Edit PS:
Yes I know China has “stolen” technology, so has all developed countries in the world.
Especially USA was built on technologies “stolen” from Europe. So give it a rest already.

AFAIK Slate auto is a cheap piece of crap. But AFAIK it’s not available yet, so we don’t really know.
In Denmark we have 16 car models available below $25k USD. None of them as ugly as the Slate.

I heard about that, and that’s crazy. You gotta love all that freedom. 🤥
I don’t drive nearly that much either.
I understand the logic of the tax on gas to pay for roads, but here an EV is taxed less because it pollutes less. USA needs more of that.

Being an American wanting an electric car must be a nightmare!
Not many options, and all of them are too expensive, because competition is stifled by keeping competition out with insane tariffs.

In Europe we are spoiled with choice, lots of European brands with lots of models, and we even have American although we don’t want them, but we also have Chinese although they do have an EU import tax, to compensate for the Chinese subsidies.

But several Chinese brands are becoming quite popular, especially BYD and XPeng have become popular here in Denmark.
