What the gently caress is going on

Looks like there's a thread elsewhere in D&D: Sino-Vietnamese tensions rising

Other than that IDK, it hasn't been in the news much yet.

edit: Actually, that thread is really bad. Don't read it.

Some more longer term auto industry perspective.

I read that a lot of tech company stocks have taken a dive as a lot of their growth was predicated on the Chinese economy. I was surprised to see GM and Volkswagon are so dependent on China.

If this means fewer blinged out crossover SUVs then I'm all for it.

I've been too focused on the New Imperial China myth to pay attention to India as closely, what are India's major problems? I heard that they had good demographics and a better long-term political system.

Pollution, corruption, urban blight, highly uneven technological development. You know, the usual stuff.

They stole that poo poo from Britain anyway.

There were kind of parallel development tracks on jets for a while, the Brits had their jet and the Germans had theirs. WWII German jets lasted like 10 hours tops because they couldn't get enough the more exotic alloys you need to make a durable jet engine.

Same with the Soviets since Rolls-Royce was dumb enough to sell them a few which the Soviets promptly reverse engineered.

To be fair, they needed the money.

Finally, Sri Lanka's time to shine!

Alternatively, Thailand after the crown prince takes power and conquers the rest of Indochina for making fun of his poodle's birthday celebration.

Welcome to Thailand

It has been [ 12 ] days since our last coup

Isn't that plane a variation on a clone of the Antonov An-24 anyway? " The MA60 has not applied for FAA(US) and EASA(Europe) type certification," what a surprise.

IIRC it's a An-24 clone but with Pratt and Whitney Canada engines and new avionics or something like that.
