Sometimes I day dream how cool free China would actually be

Yay CCP is slightly less cruel than a medieval monarch

Yet $TSLA stock just keeps going up. Remember when news like this would actually mean something in the stock market? America’s economy is like 🤏 this close to collapse because everything is fake and nothing matters.

But that’s literary the title of the post so it’s more of you moving the goal post. Sure not everyone can afford to move etc. etc. but americans are having an incredible privilege here compared to the rest of the world.

of course lemmy.megaloser is here combing through my history of posts to defend authoritarians. Go away troll.

Not easy it what sense? In absolute sense it’s not easy for everyone - duuuh. But in relative sense Americans have an incredible privilege here and yall still whine.

Nope. I’m literally a digital nomad myself though mostly settled in Thailand these syas. Americans absolutely have an unmatched privileged here very few countries come even close to matching and can relocate relatively easily.

Americans have probably the easiest migration path in the world. Strong passport, very high wages and currency value, strong migration support and programs, remote friendly economy etc etc.

Nice.

Nice.

So AI controlled photoshop is ok?

I think the standard is set on wrong metric. Slop is slop and it doesnt matter how ot was brewed be it asset steal or lazy ai

Good point tho if the bubble does end up popping it’ll bring down ram price as the market will be flooded with hardware from closed/reduced farms. But I guess we’ll have bigger issues preventing us enjoying the discounts lol

People are panicking but market will correct itself. RAM is basically a solved technology and supply is limited by lack of factories not ability to manufacture.

Worth mentioning that at that time you could add anyone as moderator and they wouldn’t even know or decline the mod rights.

Death penalty is entirely up to Supreme People’s Court and has been since CCP took over. It basically means the authoritarians decide which cases are death worthy. But it’s truethere have been some “reforms” that reduced what is death worthy and try to legitimize the system. Either way, all of that is moot in an authoritarian system and it’s silly to pretend otherwise.

I’m generally against death penalty but this is great news. Chinese syndicates in the region are some of the worst people on earth right now and I say this as someone who’s currently based in Thailand and have been paying attention to the scam center issue for years now.

Seems like whatever protection they had within CCP is crumbling due to critical mass reaching the news lately and mostly thanks to strong exposure here by western journalists and pressure from SEA governments. Even CCP could not tolerate this and hopefully this means the end of this truly despicable source of human suffering.

There’s also been some rumors that CCP is directly involved with this as a policy to harm the west and weaken the SEA region which make sense, especially given the authoritarian nature but AFAIK there is no strong evidence here and it might have gotten too high profile either way so it’s very possible that these centers will be defeated soon.

Domestic and international politics are very different but if anything China’s aggression enables the corruption in Philippines

Man you’re talking out of your ass. I’ve been visiting Vietnam for over 10 years now, I live in SEA and have many Vietnamese friends with whom we discuss world politics and here you are saying that Vietnam and China has no tensions in the South China Sea when that’s by far the #1 geopolitical issue in the region.

Not even going to entertain your walls of nonsense anymore as you’re just building strawmen and attacking me. Get lost troll.

Tell me why is war with China going to happen

Are you living under a rock or something? Vietnam’s number 1 security issue is China and nobody else.

I go to Vietnam at least once a year and Vietnam hates China as it’s really the only security challenge in the region. Cambodia and Laos are buffer zones that will never evolve into anything serious ever and other neighbours are an ocean away. To add, there’s a big cultural clash between Vietnamese and Chinese that is out of scope of this thread.

South-China Sea conflict is literally the biggest brewing issue in the region and you’d be an idiot to say otherwise.

Also bringing in WW2 and Vietnam-US war is so incredibly out of touch. Most Vietnamese have long forgotten the french and the americans and if anything got significantly closer to both than to China.

The jets there are 100% for south-china sea conflict hot or posturing. You think they will send them to fight US tarrifs? What are you even talking about. Again, a huge wall of utter rubbish.

what a big wall of absolute nonsense.
