I dunno, but doesn't like a quarter of the internet kinda run on Azure?

A. That's not what you said. Normalization of relationship doesn't mean subjugation

B. If the CCP wanted normalization they wouldn't be talking about invading Taiwan. They'd be saying "we're fine with Taiwan existing as their own nation we're willing to recognize them and sign a peace treaty if they do the same with us". That's normalization

C. You're blaming the victim rather than the aggressor. The CCP are the ones saying they'll invade, Taiwan are the ones saying they'll defend themselves. It's like blaming the Palestinians for Israel's invasion

Since when is the KMT pro CCP? Since when are they pro subjugation to the PRC? Since when is the KMT communist? Seriously, wtf did I just read

Can we at least stop allowing people to use 'of' instead of 'have'?

It doesn't make any sense and I need to read the sentence twice to understand what they're saying.

Zootopia rule 34

Think if he did this to a supreme court judge, do you think they'd reverse the ruling? 🤔

or whatever that plastic thing you guys eat is

I can understand if someone like Google or Microsoft employs lawyers directly, as they have the resources and scale to do so. But someone like Telegram should really not do that. They should use an external legal office when needed. Even keep them on retainer, but definitely not open a legal office inside the company.

Fantastic seems like a strong statement. They're fine at best

Not every app on Linux is compiled for MIPS, or am I wrong? I mean, technically Windows 8 RT could run natively on ARM without problems, except you couldn't run any apps, which made the whole thing 100% useless.

Unless every app can run natively, you'll always have to run some sort of translation layer, either in software, hardware or both. That layer will have native performance.

It is a fact that natural gas (read methane) infrastructure and power generation has a greater heating impact than coal.

Source?

Really? I’m actually asking because I don’t think you can get the amd combo you mentioned at that price.

Without even trying... https://pcpartpicker.com/list/msJQ6D

This is not even the lowest you can go, as I wouldn't get an A620 mobo. Also not a recommendation, just first three components I found.

BTW, afaik this is a MIPS CPU, with proprietary ISA. Who would want this other than the Chinese government exactly?

I mean, it's a 4 core MIPS CPU, tops out at 2.5GHz and apparently compares to an i3 10100F, which is pretty much "reheated Skylake". This with native code.

It can translate x86 and ARM code in theory, but I can imagine the performance degradation. You can buy this if you want, I know I won't

I mean, if they are fleeing, they are fleeing with their money. Capital is essential for an economy and if capital leaves the country, it means that you have less growth, less investment and less prosperity in general. You can't even tax that capital once it has left the country.

Plus, many of those low-millionaires are probably some of the most competent and knowledgeable people (not the hundreds-million industry captain with ties to the government, but the plant manager or lead researcher, lead developer etc. i.e. those who've made a small fortune through their ability). Getting rid of lead people is not exactly beneficial for an economy.

And sure, making everyone poor will reduce apparent wealth inequality, you're right.

I think that, in theory, you can't really move all your money outside of China. In practice, I'm pretty sure there's a huge loophole in Macau where you can exchange all your RMB money for casino chips and then exchange them for dollars (or something like that) instantly, allowing you to move huge sums outside of China. There are probably a thousand other ways to bring out money we surely don't know about.

There are tons of millionaires and billionaires in China, and I doubt they want to be at the complete mercy of the CCP. They've been moving money outside of China for decades now, with this and other loopholes. Many of the billionaires are complicit with members of the party, obviously, sharing the money with those in power in order to do what they please.

Does it count as DIY or professionally installed if you are a professional doing it yourself?

I’m loyal and respectful enough with the people I care. Isn’t that enough?

Nope, you need to actually meet people, do stuff, talk, go places etc. Simply existing and "being nice" is not enough.

Then you need some friends. On the how to acquire one, there are a few ways. One of the most effective outside of school or work is to join some club, some class or some sport activity. For instance, I joined a latin dance class lately (salsa, bachata) and I've met lots of very friendly people. Every Friday they also organize a night out to some local clubs to dance, and there you can meet lots of other people with a similar interest. It's just an example though, pick something interesting, join a group of people etc.

You just need to be proactive. Staying all day in your room commiserating yourself is definitely not sexy

So you spend your entire day either working/studying or staring at a blank wall?

Btw, it doesn't really matter if you do something actually interesting, it's the attitude that counts. I've tried doing the same thing/going to the same event with different people, some very positive and outgoing, and some very negative, and the experience has been very very different.

If your attitude is "I'm not interesting, and I don't do anything interesting" then guess what, you won't be interesting to anyone around you. Btw, going to the pub for a beer can be very interesting. Walking somewhere can be interesting.

I mean, Zola Larson wouldn't even be such a bad name (zola is how Gorgonzola is abbreviated in Italy)
