If you’re going to perform in the US as a foreign musician you need an O or a P visa. Trying to do it on a B1/B2 is a no-go. This isn’t anything new.

It sounds like standard is just a holding company for Nebula to add a layer of protection in the ownership structure.

This corporate structure seems a bit sketchy for creators if the platform wants to sell. If they sell Nebula then creators split half of the profits. If they sell Standard then creators get nothing.

It’s provincial and most provinces have it with varying degrees of data collection and accessibility but data isn’t shared across provinces.

The EV market is basically (1) Tesla, (2) a bunch of Chinese auto makers (BYD and ten others you’ve never heard of), (3) and every other well-known legacy auto maker.

BYD is giving Tesla some healthy competition.

Tesla is working on a $25k auto right now that should be available in 2026.

There isn’t much hope for legacy auto in the EV space. They’re too far behind and their costs for production are too high to remain profitable.

The Chinese auto makers have announced plans to open factories in Mexico which would give them easier access to North America under the USMCA.

BYD is opening a plant in Mexico to avoid tariffs. If that happens we should see BYD cars in the US and Canada by 2030.

Shouldn’t the answer be Canada?

Chinese manufacturers like BYD are opening plants in Mexico to get around the US protectionism against Chinese made cars. Blocking this would require serious changes to the USMCA.

Tesla has proven you don’t need a dealer network to sell cars in the United States.

The model Y is getting a revamp over the next few months. It will be interesting to see how many of the things in this article Tesla decides to change.

It is one thing to show ID. It is an other thing to show ID and have the details stored in a database in perpetuity by companies who don’t have huge budgets for data privacy and security.

Rail is certainly not an efficient transport between the DPRK and Russia. They run on different rail gauges, so all freight would need to be manually transferred to Russian box cars, or the bogeys on each rail car would need to be swapped out.

If it is crime related, then the courts could impose criminal asset forfeiture (aka a fine) after a criminal conviction.

Civil asset forfeiture needs to disappear completely and forever.

I don’t think people remember the days when ISPs/free wifi hotspots would inject their own ads into the content of pages served over http, or replace urls on YouTube content to show lower resolution copies of videos.
