  • Liberals HATE this ONE trick

    Jump

  • I meant dictatorship, I have fixed it. Generally dictatorships can't really correct course when they're making errors, in terms of the institutions they've built they're failing to do that but in terms of policy they are generally correcting the mistakes they make (albeit slowly).

  • How Trump is helping China extend its massive lead in clean energy

    Jump

  • Trump cancelling renewable energy projects already started is a danger to the world's climate, and on top of that he's restricting imports of Chinese renewable technology. The silver lining is that this will probably drive up energy prices and result in a lot of manufacturing being offshored.

    Jump

  • Both can be true. Over time the Soviet Union economy got worse because there was no corrective mechanism. A lot of the leadership (especially Stalin) was more interested in maintaining their own power than governing effectively. The Soviet Union being subject to US interference couldn't be a democracy, but it's difficult to correct errors in the economy without democracy.

    China has managed to overcome the issue of dictatorships, and it'll be interesting to see what'll happen as America shoots itself in the foot.

  • The BRICS currency would be a single currency, administers by an assortment of countries. In essence the BRICS currency would be just like the Euro but with an international pariah (Russia) and a country with a history of heavy-handed policy towards business (China) being major players.

  • Donny Boy being honest

    Jump

  • If anything the Euro would need to do it. Europe, Canada, Japan, they won't trust a BRICS currency. Within BRICS it might work but it wouldn't replace the dollar in that case.

  • Linux phones are more important now than ever.

    Jump

  • Just gotta work out how to get internet on the pocket computer, so I can do mobile banking and cab bookings on the go.

  • China’s new floating wind power tech may rival traditional windmills: engineer

    Jump

  • Yeah, that does seem to be the prevailing wisdom.

  • China’s new floating wind power tech may rival traditional windmills: engineer

    Jump

  • Something so unstable couldn't possibly replace wind turbines. Unless it can handle being tossed about in hurricane force winds.

  • Google’s $45 Million Contract With Netanyahu's Office to Spread Israeli Propaganda

    Jump

  • That's so cheap. $45 million is chump change. They earn 2,000 times that (profit) in a year.

  • Pentagon Document: U.S. Wants to “Suppress Dissenting Arguments” Using AI Propaganda

    Jump

  • Well, good thing they're using AI for this. If they were willing to hire people to write this then it'd be more of a threat. People will notice the pro-US bot swarm in an instant (I'd hope).

  • Bernie Sanders: Kennedy Must Resign

    Jump

  • Kennedy is probably more dangerous than Trump. An anti-vaxxer in charge of vaccines will get so many people killed, if he hasn't already doomed us to that fate.

    Stock up on toilet paper people, you're gonna need it.

    Why this doesn't make anime more popular, I'll never know.

    Jump

  • I think western animation has started to overtake anime for quality.

    Bojack Horseman and The Amazing Digital Circus offer things I could never hope to get from anime short of 3-gatsu no Lion, namely in the writing department. The nuanced characters common in adult animation (meaning "western adult animation" since all anime is "adult") aren't common in anime. Probably because I drop any anime that demonstrates any conflict without english-language humour to soften it.

    And there's so much adult animation nowadays and I've tried far less of it than I should, since I'm boycotting everything American and not keen on picking up a new American-centered hobby.

  • Mayb if they werent so drunk on the US's ChInA BaD koolaid they'd have som sense

    Jump

  • America is an extremely natural trading partner, an overwhelming military threat, and right next door to all of Canada's major cities.

    They, more than any other country, need to walk a tightrope.

    Jump

  • I don't think Canada has much of a choice. Have you seen what it looks like on a map.

  • What will MS do when Linux becomes a serious threat to their monopoly ?

    Jump

  • Secure boot and anti-cheat.

  • DNC Votes Down Resolution Calling for Israeli Arms Embargo to Halt US Complicity in Gaza Genocide

    Jump

  • And they're doing it in the wrong way anyway. Those swing voters aren't centrist so much as they're racist union members and the like. You win those firstly with the charisma that comes from actually believing in something other than your own political ambitions, but secondly by having an economic policy that is at all different from Republicans (putting aside the chaos of Trump).

  • Do you guys just have flawless experiences or what?

    Jump

  • I'm on AMD, but I do still run into frequent issues. Normally with Ubuntu variations most things just work but not everything.

    Linux is created mostly by unpaid volunteers, so it's gonna have it's faults. For so many reasons I'm inclined not to use Windows so finding that a feature doesn't work isn't a big deal for me.

  • Trump pledges to scrap mail ballots and voting machines before 2026 midterms

    Jump

  • Voting machines are a horrible idea. You can change all the votes with just a single person's effort in a foreign country.

    Mail-in voting and early-voting are important, especially with voter suppression. In Australia the conservative LNP tried to argue against early voting because they "hadn't even released the costings yet" as if they weren't supposed to release them months beforehand.

    Concerned that Putin is who he's listening to on this. Putin is trying to earn Trump's trust by giving him information he's already primed to believe (true or not) and based on this it seems it was very effective.
