I noticed walking around China how much of the state messaging centers around fire safety and how the ubiquitous electric bikes are often banned from indoor parking, because of how often fires keep starting from scooter batteries which are now practically all the lithium type. Also found it amusing at 7:12 where the subtitles described "degrees Freedom" πΊπ²
