In a diplomatic gesture of respect, President Putin passed the aux cable to Kim Jong Un.

They’re launching their own “Comedians in Cars” show since sanctions prevented the show from airing in their countries

Certainly looks a lot like one

That's a thing in a lot of newer cars. Contains various sensors like the "is the windshield wet" sensor, daylight sensor, and so on. I guess from googling it seems like the main thing is a collision detection (prevention?) sensor? Maybe LIDAR or something?

Top left corner with a suction cup, not centered and built into the car.

Do they share a common language so they can talk about anything? Or do they need a translator for most stuff?

[-] emizeko@hexbear.net 9 points 5 months ago

I'm guessing they both have just enough English that along with some hand gestures it works out okay

[-] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 9 points 5 months ago

I've always assumed that Putin can understand spoken English far better than he can speak it.

[-] thethirdgracchi@hexbear.net 10 points 5 months ago

Putin can probably speak English well enough, there's just little need for him to do so publicly. If his accent isn't perfect it'd get so much scrutiny, so better to just use translators.

Presidents of state do not speak in foreign languages even if they know it

In the video that was published by Russian media, it shows Kim and Putin taking turns driving the car. Feels like a dudes rock moment. The car is an Aurus Senat.
