VinFast, Apple, and Diesel Tech

Let's talk automotive and games!

Going steady. VinFast thinks it's time to take its relationship with the US to a new level. Vietnam's only native automaker has filed to become a publicly traded company in the US next year, with production at its new $2B plant in North Carolina beginning in 2024. Details about an IPO are not public.

VinFast has a very all-in vibe. So obviously, they're playing Uno.

Rumor has it. Apple is reducing its full self-driving plans in favor of a more reasonable goal - actually releasing its iCar. Set for a 2026 release and a nearly $100K price tag, the car will include a steering wheel and pedals (contrary to earlier reports). The car will also feature entertainment features you'd expect from CarPlay, which will make long autonomous highway rides more fun.

I would tell you what game Apple is playing, but my Apple watch just told me to stand up from my Apple laptop for a break, so I'm going to make a quick call on my Apple phone. BRB.

Mix it up! A team of engineers created a diesel engine that uses a mix of traditional fuel and hydrogen power. The concoction dramatically lowers emissions and matches heavy-duty diesel engines like current electric options cannot. At 90% hydrogen, the mix reduces carbon emissions by 85% and increases efficiency by 26%.

This one isn't a game. It's more of an ‘Easy Bake Oven.
