The PRC’s leadership should turn themselves and their junta’s control of the mainland over to the authority of the Republic of China, which we should stop euphemistically calling Taiwan. That’s the only reunification they need.
It reminds me of RCA’s bitter, exceptionally childish, and unsolicited open letter to the trade press after they failed to win the 33⅓ vs 45 format war and decided to press LPs once again. As British youtuber Techmoan notes, ‘All the points they made on here could be prefixed with “Well, actually I think you’ll find that…” and suffixed with “…so there.”’



This definition wouldn’t apply to harmonicas nor digital keyboards, nor bagpipes arguably.



Get a grip
Yes, I, too, understood the point of the comment.


That’s it. It’s the illusion of fairness and it takes away reddit jannies’ ability to show off their powermod status, and that’s the only incentive they have not to use sockpuppets for every sub they mod.


Microsoft is at this point made up entirely of technically inept people running fraudulent mechanical Turks.


They’re shitty cars though.
Human extinction is a preferable alternative to transhumanism. The only future that lies down that road is an exponentially deepening divide between the haves and have-nots, in which a slave class with mandatory compliance-enforcement augments is ruled like livestock by a class of sadistic, hyper-wealthy elites who enjoy life-extending luxury cybernetics in a horrific parody of the Morlocks and Eloi. The potential for debasement of the poor and unfortunate will skyrocket and it will not go untapped. Humanity will not exist forever and we do not have the right to prolong that inevitability by creating abominations.
If anything, this indicates that restaurants should be forced to print menus so it’s as annoying and inconvenient as possible to raise prices.


See? Pixel devices are nothing but a trip to the lemon grove, but people with debilitating chronic ass pain tearfully refuse to accept that they wasted their money on GETBRAND. I take those downvotes as an unofficial census confirming how many people don’t know ball.


People who use stock ROMs choose to suffer, just like people who choose to buy a Pixel that will either come unglued, push components through the display, or just constantly overheat.


This would be sad if Pixel phones were worth buying, instead of being far inferior to midrange Motorola devices in battery life and performance while costing well over twice as much.
Skill issue. Just buy a jitterbug why don’t you
Many such cases


We’re still in the uncanny valley, but it seems that we’re climbing out of it. I’m already being ‘tricked’ left and right by near perfect voice ai and tinkered with image gen

Fine, but I wasn’t addressing what you refuted. Most likely the perpetual-war economies of the Axis would have turned on each other during the course of competitive colonization, and lead to a series of Balkanized fascist states fighting for control. I doubt that even Germany would have remained intact, or that non-Prussian Germans would have had civil rights even by Nazi standards. The various rogue states controlling the general area of Vichy France would undoubtedly still speak French. I was addressing your thesis:
It’s not clear to me that the Allies lose, even if it’s just the UK and USSR as the major powers.
If it’s just the UK and USSR as the major powers, they lose.
There doesn’t have to be tribalism, people just need to accept that systemd is a botnet
