I am an American, that's what I mean about oil refinement silly pants.

The battery stuff is important for understanding China's going to be the leader in directed energy weapons use in actual warfare. They already have truck-mounted platforms that swivel like pan tilt and zoom cameras.

They are not "stealing tech" lmao we don't have their metallurgy or automation capabiities now. It's no longer just a scale issue

Most of those stories are guys whining about agreements they signed, but now regret. Tough shit. Tech transfers happen. Soon China will be the leader in sub 5 nanometer chip foundries, give it a few decades

General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
