<p>Another luxury electric car maker is taking drastic action in light of <a href="https://www.engadget.com/2019-08-27-faraday-future-ceo-to-resign-in-restructuring-plan.html">financial trouble</a>. Chinese firm Byton has<em> </em>told <a href="https://www.thedetroitbureau.com/2020/06/byton-suspends-operations-for-6-months-but-revival-seems-unlikely/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>The Detroit Bureau</em></a> and <a href="https://www.theverge.com/2020/6/30/21308389/byton-chinese-ev-startup-operations-suspended-furloughs" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>The Verge</em></a> that it’s stopping operations for “at least” six months due to financial struggles exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Most China-based workers will be furloughed, with just a “small group” staying active in case they’re needed, according to spokesperson Dave Buchko.</p>
<p>The decision comes despite Byton having the support of state-controlled car giant First Auto Works, although Buchko noted that Byton had made it further than many of its rivals with a completed factory and a handful of EVs produced to clear regulatory tests. With <a href="https://www.engadget.com/electric-vehicles-european-union-market-share-increase-143154004.html">car markets reeling</a>, though, the company didn’t know when it would start shipping cars, let alone find enough paying customers.</p>

<p>There’s no question that losing your job is incredibly stressful, and since the COVID-19 pandemic began, millions of people in the US have been <a href="https://www.engadget.com/uber-layoffs-coronavirus-135801409.html">laid off</a> or <a href="https://www.engadget.com/lyft-covid19-layoffs-165619468.html">furloughed</a>. In an attempt to ease some of the stress that causes, the mindfulness app Headspace is offering a <a href="https://www.headspace.com/unemployed" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">free one-year subscription</a> to anyone in the US who is now unemployed.</p>
<p>Anyone who qualifies can register at <a href="https://www.headspace.com/unemployed" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Headspace.com/unemployed</a>. Headspace asks for the name of your most recent employer and your last date of employment, but it’s unclear if they do any cross checking or if this is an honor system. Once you sign up, you’ll get access to over 1,200 hours of meditation and mindfulness content, including sleep aids, kids content and mindful movement. </p>
