Blackout

I mean, the government could tackle homelessness, or end child hunger, many appropriate subjects. But instead they want to regulate jerk-off material. Sad.

The genocide will continue until morale improves

What a tragedy. I thought Israel wanted to save these people but the hospital bombings prove they just wanted a war. To them no one is worth protecting in Gaza, not even their own people.

Someone close the freezer door!

It is shocking. None of my close friends there have kids, nor seem to want one. Food is still relatively cheap but the other costs of living compared to wage are ridiculous

There was an explosion of Chinese punk/alt bands late 90s/ early 2000s but they gave way to hip hop/pop. Still a decent scene in Beijing. One of my favorite bands from that era is called Wood pushing melon (木推瓜).

The lead singer left that band and started an incredible tribal folk group called Dawanggang next

Because catboy isn’t an option yet.

But really it’s because in fps they have abilities that make them quicker and it’s more my style of gameplay. I rush to a choke point and try to make it look like there are many players there to push them towards my teammates.

First you have to be stupid, like really dumb. Second, you need a fetish for authoritarian regimes. Third, bring up some irrelevant figure from the 50s to confuse everyone.

NOT IF I BUY IT FIRST!

And not tasty, dam librul media

Lol except women right? Oh and trans people.

I can cast to my internet-disabled TV anything to it, including pirate streaming sites with no ads. 20 years ago I ran a hdmi from my desktop and used a wireless touchpad to load downloaded stuff. It truly is the golden age of piracy

You know 20 years ago I lived there and everyone was so kind, hopeful, and excited for the future. They saw their lives improving and their freedoms growing. When Obama was elected people would stop me in the street, give me a thumbs up. They knew enough that it was a big deal for Americans. They felt a part of the world and hopeful for the future.

Then Xi comes to power, locks down everything, youth get fucked, 24/7 propaganda against the west. Last time I was there for work before the pandemic and people were stopping me in the street to tell me how much more powerful China was over America. Shout nasty things to me in Chinese randomly. He really is a dictator and fucked those people over. My friends are extremely cautious on what we discuss over the phone or by email now. We don’t need our own Xi rising to power again here.

You make a good point. Everyone likes to think they can just switch production to India or Vietnam but they have no idea how large the manufacturing industry is there. No other country could replace it or match their speed. All those quality items you like have components or are entirely made in China.

I got one in there now, keeps the place free from flies. Plus now I have a friend /|(◦.◦)/|\

If you manufacturer a product and sell it on Amazon and your website, but give your site a lower price, Amazon will push lower your listing ranking and crush your sales. My business has gotten warning messages telling us to consider fixing our prices when we’ve done that in the past. They are violating anti-trust laws left and right and should be penalized and broken up. It’s ridiculous they can argue that since they don’t have more than 50% of the market they can’t be a monopoly. They sure can destroy your business like one.

It will hardly be a battle. Ever seen a chicken processing plant?
