What‘s legal and what‘s not depends on your status in China. So in practice it‘s still totally legal no matter what their government claims. So yes, I think that was a lie. But also this article is very likely bullshit too if you ask me. Classic fear mongering stuff. It generates clicks.

AI and robots are being oversold everywhere. Even though they are taking jobs, quality takes a hit. I doubt they fill nearly as many positions long term as tech tycoons want us to believe.

So this account suddenly started posting dozens of threads an hour. A bit weird.

They‘re probably learning that reckless driving gets you there faster… or not at all and they just take the gamble. Basically bad parameters, I‘m guessing.

For it to be a reverse card you would have to call me out first but you didn‘t. You just proved I don‘t make problematic posts.

Politico is owned by a fascist (yes, actually ideologically fascist) company that openly supports neo Nazis. It doesn‘t matter what Politico says just like it doesn‘t matter what for example the 5 Minute Crafts Youtube channel shows. Engaging with either directly supports fascism. Your click is their currency after all.

This has been explained in several communities by several members in much more detail by the way but you won‘t listen.

If a story is worth reporting about there are a number of sources you can site but for whatever reason a hand full of accounts keep shoving Politico in our faces.

Yes, this is a problem.

Trying to distract us from the Epstein files and the war with a little insider trading I see.

When Ton announced he‘s stepping down last year I was worried. I‘m willing to label this as a one time slip up but it really doesn‘t help dispelling my worries at all.

Someone‘s feeling called out. At least going by your post history of politico garbage.

They know better because they have been told again and again. But they only keep multiplying by the looks of it. Lack of moderation or direction probably is a huge factor I believe.

Is it just me or is Lemmy being flooded with bottom of the barrel journalism? This is an issue in so many communities that I‘m starting to think it‘s just a few people with multiple accounts pushing an agenda of slop. And people eat it up almost every time.

Gee I wonder why people criticize China for treating workers like crap. Is it the sweatshops or the Uyghur camps? It‘s a mystery.

Counter point: I know exactly one person who learned Mandarin and several dozen who don‘t. Pretty much everyone learned english and (to a lesser degree) a third language that isn‘t Mandarin either. French, Spanish and Japanese are popular, though.

Classic Fediverse. Can‘t have China critique without the token whataboutism response.

Yes lets keep depending on fossil fuel imports instead! You know, the stuff we keep burning and rebuying. The stuff we cannot create. That we have to keep buying and burning forever or more likely until climate change has dissolved our civilization. That‘s much more preferable than importing tech right now that we can maintain, fix and perhaps even build ourselves soon. Makes sense. /s

I know the reliance on China is a slippery slope at best and we really have to learn how to stand on our own legs but the beauty of renewables is that we can absolutely do that within a few years. This is an improvement from completely reliance on fossil fuels.

The main reason things are still running as they are during this crisis is because of renewables. Things won‘t improve very soon but they could be so much worse without renewables.

If all of the claims from Chinese tech companies and research was half as good as they claim we would all learn Mandarin by now.

Well, it‘s the biggest German cloud provider. Possibly even the biggest in Europe.

We‘re going to see more headlines like this. Probably for years to come.

That was the idea. Tech companies don‘t want us to have nice things because it makes their products look all the more shitty. And so they attack anything open source that they don‘t directly benefit from. Some investors are probably seeing the shitty ink printer business and hope they can degrade 3D printing to that degree too. They take any opportunity to fuck the small people for a chance of making an easy buck.

Difference is that in the Netherlands you will barely come near a car when cycling. Germany‘s cycling lanes on the other hand are barely distinguishable from the road.

Someone isn‘t relax maxxing.
