Not just that. Try manufacturing anything without Chinese parts… They make everything switched, resistors, motors, just everything.

Depressing thought of the day: if we had no emissions for a year, it would buy us a year.

- Comment on Teardown Of A Scam Ultrasonic Cleaner 3 days ago:
I got one a while ago and they are great for cleaning small objects, and glasses. Basically ultrasonic sound waves get send through water, small cavitation bubbles form and rip off the dirt.

I would hoard a bit. So you can get off it in a controlled manner if you cannot afford it anymore.
- Comment on The Darkest Files - prosecute real Nazi crimes 5 days ago:
You interview witnesses and go “into” their memories in first person. Interacting with objects is asking that person a question.
Then, you reconstruct the crime using a blueprint on a timeline, and support everything with three collaborating pieces of evidence.

- Comment on Why don’t wireless connections (WiFi, Bluetooth, etc.) use anything between 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz? 2 weeks ago:
Its regulation. You are not allowed to just use any frequency band. 2.4 GHz is free to use for whatever, so a lot of stuff uses it. 5 GHz is already in radar range so the chips have to detect and turn off when detecting radar.

- Comment on Spent half an hour on it. Felt good. 4 weeks ago:
I worked at a lot of different tech companies, and it will be read or at least analyzed in some way for sure. They care about your wallet and why it closes.
- Comment on How do you feel about someone taking the coins people tossed into a fountain or other public waterworks display for "wishes?" 4 weeks ago:
Often, that money is used to fund the historical site to which the fountain belongs, they are basically donations.
- Comment on Is using MicroSD cards a good way to store data that you can destroy quickly incase an adversary is about to seize control of it? 4 weeks ago:
The way to do this is plausible deniability. There is software that allows creating an encrypted volume with two passwords, resulting in two different decrypted volumes. So you give the duress password and there is no incriminating data on there.
For example grapheneOS also has a duress pin that wipes the device.

Don’t trust the corpos but Apple has a history of resisting stuff lime this.
- Comment on China Reportedly Set to Roll Out Nationwide RISC-V Chip Push, with Policy Expected by March | TrendForce News 5 weeks ago:
It’s really funny to me how so many people are going surprised pikachu over China tech not being crap.
They started with basic manufacturing until no one could beat them, stole everything they could to close the tech gap. But behind that, invested massively into education to the point that they are producing more engineers than the rest of the world combined. They may not be super creative but they are competent enough. Also if one in a million is a genius the “West” has 800 but China has 1500. So yes, of course now their domestic designs will catch up or surpass western ones.
Basically China spent the last 50 years systematically going through the techtree and minmaxing their spies, while the west just kind of aimlessly clicked around.
- Comment on Billionaires shouldn't exist 5 weeks ago:
If they are owned by people, all the assets of the grocery store are personal assets and wealth of the individuals owning them.
- Comment on Apple refuses to break encryption, seeks reversal of UK demand for backdoor - Ars Technica 5 weeks ago:
No, because if you know its not encrypted you behave differently than when you think it is.
- Comment on Billionaires shouldn't exist 5 weeks ago:
I will post this every time.
Billionaires have an unhealthy concentration of power, but they don’t have a billion on their bank account. They own companies that are worth that much. They also aren’t necessarily assholes.
Germany has many medium sized companies. They mostly treat their employees really well. Good pay, guaranteed jobs for their kids, etc. Many for sure are worth over a billion. And they are privately owned, so the owners are billionaires or close to it. So what is supposed to happen to those companies ownerships? Would it really be better if they are publicly owned?
I’ve come around to think that a wealth tax is necessary, but it’s for sure complicated.
- Comment on Billionaires shouldn't exist 5 weeks ago:
You realize that a single grocery store with all of its stock is likely already worth more than 1000x median income? Who does the grocery have to be sold to to pay your 100% tax?

Worse, the Molotov Ribbentrop pact was dividing up Europe between the Soviet Union and Germany. That’s why the Soviet Union invaded Poland together with Germany, and took the eastern half.
