Their repos have been frozen since Feb. No security patches, no upgrades?!?
- Comment on Hong Kong’s oldest pro-democracy party is shutting down as Beijing leaves no room for dissent 1 week ago:
Black fly in wine. Never heard that before, where does it come from?
- Comment on China scientists develop flash memory 10,000× faster than current tech 1 week ago:
That was yesterday. It doubled since then IIRC
- Comment on China scientists develop flash memory 10,000× faster than current tech 1 week ago:
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.

I think that someone missed a /s in this thread.
- Comment on Hong Kong’s oldest pro-democracy party is shutting down as Beijing leaves no room for dissent 1 week ago:
Lots of strong democratic events over the last 50 years though. There is hope still.
- Comment on Hong Kong’s oldest pro-democracy party is shutting down as Beijing leaves no room for dissent 1 week ago:
Ironic response. Response said that the wrong word was used, but personally point was not addressed.
- Comment on Hong Kong’s oldest pro-democracy party is shutting down as Beijing leaves no room for dissent 1 week ago:
Except the organization in question says that they are shutting down because they can’t. 95% of ppl from Hong Kong don’t want $emocratic politics?
- Comment on Hong Kong’s oldest pro-democracy party is shutting down as Beijing leaves no room for dissent 1 week ago:
Oh no, they used a word in a way I didn’t like - I guess their opinion about personal freedom and representation are completely invalid.
Ad Hominem much?
Chinese people deserve the freedom to express their political views.

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.
- Comment on What are some FOSS programs that are objectively better than their proprietary counterparts? 2 weeks ago:
Has anybody tried the HA voice hardware. Not sure how it works (does it use a cloud AI?)
- Comment on China now faces 245% Trump tariff 2 weeks ago:
It’s just such an asinine way to go down.
- Comment on Am I going crazy, or has people's spelling gotten awful lately? 2 weeks ago:
I blame these f’ing phone keyboards and autocorrect. I can’t see what I am touching, I can’t feel it, there’s no feedback, and I have to look up while I type. Whoever came up with approach deserves… A bad case of indigestion.
- Comment on Lemmy has the ideal number of posts for me. Just enough to have a good time but not too many that I'm scrolling forever 2 weeks ago:
There is also a place to politely challenge others, especially when you see more out on a long (touchy) expressions.
I describing myself there on that limb as well of course. I’ve found myself well challenged several times on a limb.
- Comment on Chinese chip giants say they don't care about U.S. tariffs — many don't sell to the U.S. anyway due to existing sanctions 2 weeks ago:
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.

I’m also enjoying participating in forums I would never touch in any other medium. I find the people that I disagree with have much better points, with significantly fewer radicals, idiots or crusaders.
- Comment on Why is there steam coming out of the streets in New York 3 weeks ago:
You are likely correct.
- Comment on The one good thing about all this 3 weeks ago:
Did Japan and SK actually announce collaboration with China, or was it only China that said that they are working together?
- Comment on Why is there steam coming out of the streets in New York 3 weeks ago:
Whole parts of Eastern Europe still transport Steam for heating.
- Comment on China launches HDMI and DisplayPort alternative — GPMI boasts up to 192 Gbps bandwidth, 480W power delivery 3 weeks ago:
Why is that better than usb-c?
- Comment on China Just Turned Off U.S. Supplies Of Minerals Critical For Defense & Cleantech 3 weeks ago:
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.
- Comment on Are Nintendo's $80 online game prices a result of tariffs or is Nintendo just using them as an excuse to price gouge as corporations do? 4 weeks ago:
I inherited a switch from someone who wasn’t using it and was blown away by the prices for the majority of games on it. They were charging AAA prices for Mario titles. If they had priced their Mario. Zelda titles at half the price, those things would have dominated before the SteamDeck’s came out. The switch is barely used.
- Comment on China’s push for chip independence continues with its first RISC-V server CPU 4 weeks ago:
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.
- Comment on China’s push for chip independence continues with its first RISC-V server CPU 4 weeks ago:
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?
- Comment on DeepSeek's V3 AI model gets a major upgrade - here's what's new 5 weeks ago:
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.
- Comment on The Dangers of Deferring to AI: It Seems So Right Even When It's Wrong. 1 month ago:
The problem is that the quality of “just look it up” is seriously degraded these days (except Wikipedia)
- Comment on Chinese EV maker BYD says new fast-charging system could be as quick as filling up a tank 1 month ago:
You are right
- Comment on Chinese EV maker BYD says new fast-charging system could be as quick as filling up a tank 1 month ago:
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.
