what’s wrong with their eyes, is this a frog?

so if i understood this correctly there will still be a monument commemorating the nazi “victims”… except their names won’t be on it?

whitewashing nazis to be anticommunist should not surprise me anymore by this point but still.

don’t worry, they will block china off their market to try and prop up their crumbling industry.

more broadly than ram, from what i’ve been reading, they are already gearing up to do just that. semiconductors are one of the few industries they are behind on and it wouldn’t even be wise to depend on their rivals for their computing.

whether or not they will be able to pull it off before the couple of years it would take for western manufacturers to meet demand, or the ai bubble to burst is anyone’s guess, but i don’t think so.

a bit of speculation but i don’t think they would hate to be the gatekeepers of rented cloud computing to recoup costs after ai busts either so who knows, maybe we do need china to come sooner rather than later and flood the market with cheap computer chips.

stealing intellectual property from billion dollar corporations to be morally neutral

i consider it to be beautiful and commendably moral to steal back what they basically made us do for money/survival then claimed as their secrets only they can profit from, causing the whole predicament we are in in the first place.

being surveilled is always bad. difference being one of them are constantly starting conflicts and meddling with foreign elections, the other haven’t been at war for decades.

it’s your responsibility to help change things for the better, then.

if it were just a couple of people and just trump. this would not be an issue. it goes way deeper.

but yeah, that’s what i’m saying. you are the baddies.

Unless the US does the thing where they decide to violently lash out

yeah they are already gearing up for it 🫩

the global south will have another chance and the east will eventually shine. and a period of peace after the storm passes. quite a lot of nuance and drama and death all along the way.

climate change fucking everything up for the worse somewhere in the middle of all this.

yay, big win! :)

that’s not low key at all. living the dream.

and 13419 miles.

tbf the stereotype of young people being happier and more active and carefree has to do with the societal expectations involved with the age too, at least on my experience.

i don’t think anything says we couldn’t ease up as a society with trying to make everyone miserable for a change.

the worst part is that there are plenty of examples of older phones that achieved high IP ratings while also being more repairable. they just gaslight us into accepting it.

(also obligatory 🐧)

eh, they are already making the parts anyway. just make them available on order or something, not ideal but acceptable. beats forcing consumers to take a leap of faith for a product that looks pretty clearly to be disposable.

being existentially afraid of new tech instead of excited for the possibilities is a terribly capitalist problem to have.

and let’s hope you don’t get to have any woman in your life you can dump your misogyny on.

though i have a suspicion we are thankfully covered on this one.

ooo love playing with displays.

whaddya got in mind for that juicy e-ink?

a lot of things neurodivergents do, neurotypicals do too.

it’s the intensity and obssession that differentiates it sometimes.

stop reading my mind, tyvm.

ive actually just been sifting through the mountains of data i accumulated over the better part of a decade, or more.

and let me tell you, a lot of these i actually followed up through on! turns out you do come back to it later in other ways and don’t even notice you made a lot of progress until you come back to The Archives™

overwhelming at first but deleting a lot of old shit has never felt so good. like doing a big spring cleaning on my mind.
