  • Nothing. She has a login on my system and can access pretty much anything already, minus emails and dropbox I believe. But there's nothing worth hiding either.

  • Ah, what he mentioned were e-bikes, but those are not really on the fancy side. Search for 饿了么 scooter or 美团 scooter. They do food and grocery deliveries mostly. For private use, Niu scooters are the most popular in terms of design, but a ton of cheap stuff exists. Couldn't tell you about the brands, they are all very generic.

    Electric motorbikes exist, but require a special license and are banned in most downtown areas, so they aren't really common. One brand I'm aware of is called Dayi Motors, they recently got certified for the European market, so chances are that those would become available elsewhere as well.

  • Not the OP, but I live in China.

    Check out for example the Xpeng (Xiao Peng) G6 and P7, the Qiantu K50, Zeekr 009, Lynk & Co. 03, Aiways U5 and the Dongfeng Mengshi M-Hero 917 (now if that's not HALO inspired, I don't know...).

  • Will do, thanks for the encouragement :-)

  • It's been 3 days. As a former prison inmate, they most certainly had his DNA on file.

  • Oh I didn't mean to criticise you posting it, just wanted to question the source. Sorry if it came across that way.

  • I'm sure they wanted it back, I'm just saying that disposing of prototypes is not as outlandish as it generally sounds.

  • How people in the security sector operate without 2FA with dedicated apps is totally beyond me.

  • How exactly is "active" measured?

    Logged in? Commenting? Posting? Net time spent on Lemmy?

    I feel like the metrics need to be a bit more refined to actually make a qualified statement.

  • Wow, they started inventorizing products after only 17 years in operations. Highly efficient!

  • It's not that unusual. I work in the medical device industry and we need to do quite some testing with early prototypes for all sorts of stuff like biocompatibility, cytotoxicity, hemocompatibility as well as pressure tests, drop tests, leakage testing and whatnot. Each and every one of those prototypes is hand made and therefore the "only one".

    Even if they pass one test with flying colors and no visible damages, we couldn't use them in another test because they need to be factory new to satisfy regulatory protocols.

    Normally we don't ask for those back, we are more interested in the ones that failed a particular test.

    Now we wouldn't want our prototypes to be auctioned off, naturally, so the test centers we work with have to ensure they'll be destroyed (we have contracts and NDAs in place). But not wanting a prototype back after a third party played around with it is way more common than you think.

  • Ah interesting, I didn't explore those possibilities yet. Usually I'm sitting on /new, but that's definitely one way to go about finding active discussions only. Will give it a try over the next couple days, thanks!
