@JosephRReagan @AngelicaOung 😭 brother you would not get time to learn
English
@0dongfeng @AngelicaOung Otoh, jail would be a great place for me to learn Chinese. I'd certainly have a lot of time and motivation.
English
This is why I didn’t even think about bringing my zyns into China, man!

We welcome foreign friends who come to China for business and travel, but never ever try to traffic drugs in China🇨🇳.
English
@JosephRReagan @AngelicaOung well that is much better than going to chinese jail eh?
English
@0dongfeng @AngelicaOung "Worst case, they'll just toss the meds you need to function out at border control" actually sounds like a pretty bad case though. Not quite as bad as being a diabetic without insulin, but still noticeably bad.
English
@AngelicaOung @JosephRReagan I mean it's not that deep, if you bring a valid prescription for normal meds like that you're fine. Worst case they'll be tossed at border control. Zyns are just nicotine
English
@JosephRReagan Don’t risk it man! Just enjoy being derpy

@teortaxesTex Eh with all the water in those missiles, who's gonna fear em
English
this + blimps/drones and automated heat-seeking missiles, it's probably possible and economical to build a nation-spanning IR network that can raise the costs of using even very stealthy jets

This might seem like an crazy statement, but PRC citiens enjoy *way too much* freedom. From scooters running red lights and hogging sidewalks to taxis doing all kinds of wild maneuvers, chain-smoking in restaurants and hotels to shop staff screaming into loudspeakers raping my goddamn ears, parents beating kids in public to littering at ancient sites. It's the Wild West out here, despite the abundance of CCTVs and policemen everywhere.
If only the social credit system were real. The CCP can do way more to discipline their people.

@CarlZha I mean while I don't agree with the way it's handled, the way males AND females look in recent media is ridiculous. They all look like idols even in some slice of life drama. You used to have rugged males and more homey women. They all look like Koreans
English
China cracks down on pretty boys in media
Recently Chinese costume drama Pursuit of Jade 逐玉 gained high ratings and viewership. This attracted the attention of censors.
National Radio and Television Administration called a meeting w various TV stations, criticizing TV trends focusing on looks, demands stop idol/looks worshipping, establishing healthy aesthetic etc.
IMO the issue is disconnect between people who watch TV Dramas and people who criticize TV Dramas. TV Drama audience is primarily women. TV shows usually cater to their viewers' tastes. People who criticize the prevalence of pretty boys in TV shows are usually men but they don't watch those TV dramas anyway.
Of course the boomers in the censorship department always err in the direction of maximum control.

@tom989aha @chinafutureclub Yes and even if you're a " proper " foreigner you can do it. American, European whatever

@0dongfeng @chinafutureclub and now read again. OP writes as person from PRC, replying ppl saying they residents of Macau,hk

Iran is going to absolutely blossom in the wake of this war if they emerge in control of Hormuz. That’s the end of sanctions. In fact it is they who can sanction the world.
Yes a lot of infrastructure would be destroyed including the Soviet era steel plants. But on the other side of the ledger the financial oppression finally gone and foreign investment will flood in.
The incentive is to fight this war to this conclusion as any continuation will jeopardize their future. But they can take this hit.

“The share of industry in Iranian GDP is 35%. It is one of the largest industrial states on earth. Iran produces more than 1 million motor vehicles and 32 million tons of steel per annum, putting it consistently in the top ten. As Patricia Marins notes, Iran punches above its weight in scientific research, ranking in the top ten by scientific output in nanotechnology, neural networks, aerospace and mechanical engineering, and chemistry. How is it that Iran has been able to do all this under the most onerous regime of Western sanctions? What is the underlying source of Iranian power? The underlying source of Iranian power is the size and skill-set of the Iranian populace. Iran has a population of 93 million, a youth literacy rate of 100%, a high school graduation rate of 70% and a college graduation rate of 20%. Its urbanization rate is 78%, and it already has a sub-replacement fertility rate of 1.70. Iran has over 150 Phd-granting universities; some 230,000 Iranians holds PhDs. At 335,000 per annum, Iran ranks fifth in the world in the number of STEM graduates. It churns out 230,000 engineers every year, almost as many as the United States. The human resources at the disposal of the Iranian nation are formidable and the underlying reason for Iranian military strength.” Iran is a Great Power, by @policytensor.

@teortaxesTex Same thing with creativity, many Chinese people believed it themselves a long time.
" We're just not creative oh well"
English
fun fact: many Chinese people are jaded and insecure about their society, to the point of believing the same nonsense as Western pundits. "V4 is not coming because DS was forced to train on Huawei by our dumb gubmint" is one such take. Sounds more authoritative when in Mandarin

@teortaxesTex finns and estonians are the same in this regard, blind retards

Finns sure know a hell of a lot about Chyna
Mainly that it's big and "Communist" and kind of aligned with Russia/Soviets, which is all they need to reach a conclusion (that they'd kick its perkele ass)
Incredibly parochial people
How's Nokia doing btw?

Portrayals of the Chinese government as some cool and calculating entity are funny as fuck if you actually know anything

…this is a bit sad. I have family in Germany
but, karma. Germans have a very archaic culture where the Weak must serve the Strong. Ever since their defeat, they've served the US and Israel and lived vicariously through their triumphs. They even backed this shit.
Time to pay.

A robotics startup in Shenzhen called Mind On has upgraded the Unitree G1 humanoid with an advanced robot brain.
With this upgrade, the robot can perform everyday tasks on its own without human control.
It was shown watering plants, opening curtains, cleaning, and moving items independently.
