Probably not me. Most of the recorded incidents are against Chinese families that have emigrated.

I complain about the CCP here and there, but not likely enough for any attention to be warranted.

Except that there are credible reports of the CCP running police operations on foreign soil.

That was yesterday. It doubled since then IIRC

Americans have a history of the most insidious manipulations in the politics of other nations - did you see their Sec. of state try commemorate the CIA backed coup of Cuba.

About “crying” over foreign interference, you are wrong. In the last 4 years France, Canada, Germany, Romania, Sri-Lanka, Australia, all of the Baltic nations andore have a had credible complaints of attempts from foreign nations trying to use propaganda and more to influence elections.

Let’s not try to convince ourselves than only the Americans are misbehaving.

Can we not bother deciding who was the biggest nightmare, and instead focus on finding models for the best countries.

I am so sick of the “at least the USSR had…” or “at least China does…” conversation. Can’t we have a “Finland has high happiness, broad socialist protections, and a fast moving economy” kind of conversations.

Maybe I just tried to early, before they mainlined the 42 line. I’m on kinoite not silverblue, which might also be relevant.

Upgrading 41->42 for silverblue requires a branch change. An upgrade won’t do it.

Rpm-ostree rebase switches branch, instead of pulling the latest build from the branch.

For this number, is it related to the Chinese government GDP numbers, or independently measured? My understanding is that the CCP use GDP differently that the West, in that they release numbers which are prescriptive estimates and goals, as opposed to statistical results.

~~Why is that better than usb-c? ~~

Wait… Power the other way. Whoops, I get it.

What’s funnier is that the Americans could have dropped Chinese raw materials if they had built a collaboration before tariffing China, but the current Government have only one tactic: try to bully everyone at once. They really did make their own mess.

Yes please.

Their x86 fabs are producing a 5 yr old Intel node, and with unknown defect rate. This is about getting down to the modern node size to (eventually) to get competitive with the two major ARM nodes.

This could be great news. RISC5 could be great for diversity in the processor space. I at will take investment on the scale that only a national investment like China can invest to get it to compete.

Does China have the Fab capability to build these, or do they need foreign production?

It is not unreasonable to ask why he didn’t use the filibuster to block actual legislation, instead of just I terupting procedure.

Sinophobia and russophobia are terms that refer to ethnic racism, heavy leveraged by tankies to position political disagreement as racist. In these cases I don’t think that the fear was a ethnic based, but rather capitalist or nationalist.

The fear is still unjustified. It’s like thinking that you can trust Amazon more than Ali, or Google more than Xiaomi.

There is plenty of racism against Chinese/Asian people, which is a different level of vile.

The problem is that the quality of “just look it up” is seriously degraded these days (except Wikipedia)

You are right

It is capitalist perspective, but not propaganda.

If there is meant to be capitalist competition then the competitors should not be massively funded by the government. China massively funds their electric car industry, principally because they own them.

That said, US carmakers get Government bailouts all the time.
