  • Is it safe to say that the intent behind your first post was that China has no reason to invade Taiwan in part due to American protections? I originally interpreted it as China has no reason to invade Taiwan, so we should spend less.

  • Ultimately, if China truly has no incentive to invade Taiwan, why not just recognize it as a sovereign nation? They haven't, they likely won't, and that to me is enough evidence to show that there is reason to invade - we as armchair strategists simply don't know them.

    Does China benefit from the current arrangement in any way that would motivate them to keep the status quo?

  • And even if you get a beach head there(on the West side), it's not Normandy, there's sheer fucking cliffs, and then MORE mountains.

    Idk much about Taiwanese coastline, but your wiki article states:

    The terrain in Taiwan is divided into two parts: the flat to gently rolling plains in the west, where 90% of the population lives, and the mostly rugged forest-covered mountains in the eastern two-thirds.

  • The only way I've made used tires work is to put in a lot more leg work - pick a part salvage lots would sell them for like $20-25 ea in the past, and you can pick some good ones with good tread.

    EDIT: just checked current prices, it looks like you can get a tire for $25, tire and a wheel would be about $40 ea. Putting a tire on a wheel without the right equipment is very difficult though, maybe some shops will do it for you as a service?

  • The middle finger is a common symbol, a static formation of the fingers that the algorithm can easily learn from many common examples of the same formation of fingers.

    There's a lot more diversity, nuance, and lack of structure that goes into how hands wrap around objects to hold them, what they do when idle, etc.

  • What if?

  • Maybe smart people, but definitely someone who have probably won't shut up about one of the following topics:

    1. Linux
    2. Anti corpo
    3. Ads on websites

    None of these are bad or unpopular things, mind you.

    It's just a sign of someone shifted a liiiittle more extremist.

    They'll probably nag at you to leave reddit to join their weird website called Lemmy. Maybe insist you use their to a Plex open source jellyfin server that only works 2/3 of the time.
