@jwpark02 @zhusu And the mainland really likes kpop and lot of groups go there constantly, they just can't do concerts there, but it would give the industry a big boost if concerts are allowed there.

Different observations: Koreans reject immigration at large and the welfare burden is getting insane in the next two decades due to low birth. Kpop culture survives on overseas fandom and also overseas talent, that's partially why big ents recruit more foreigners A lot of Gangnam depends on medical tourism as well, especially big spendings from Chinese and Japanese.

South Korea and Taiwan economies are both insanely well positioned for the new paradigm. Full western supply chain integration, full access to mainland manufacturing, low birth rate and immigration so no welfare burden, self-referential pop culture so no pressure to go overseas, no dependence on tourism.

@PharosWatch Got out just in time before this research went viral. I'm gonna miss that yield.

If you try to redeem pmUSD today, you do not get dollars or gold. You get a legal claim to an unextracted mining site in Yukon, Canada. We rated it D. Here is the full 6-point breakdown. 🧵

@404flipped @Mayoveli In a way they are but the state takes majority of the profits from capitalism. Their top 4 banks earned about $200 billion in profit last year and the government is entitled to 70% of that.

@Mayoveli China is capitalist

This cost them about $1 trillion. The truth is, you cannot build systems like this exclusively on the logic of profit. You cannot expect to break even in 20 or 30 years. Projects of this scale are built because the government decides they must exist to serve the people. And this is a problem with systems that are strictly, or overwhelmingly, capitalist. If you leave every problem in your society to the spontaneity of the market, some challenges are so large and so unprofitable that you will never have sufficient incentive to solve them.

@TzviGoldstein @Stavrosgreig74 @mohammedakunjee Your whole personality and identity was molded by social media algorithm

@Stavrosgreig74 @mohammedakunjee And you know this how?

@Tyeankk467 @orikron Chinese people can sell anything. That’s why Bytedance retained TikTok shop when they were forced to give up TikTok US.

@orikron Lol, which country is going to keep importing from them? Definitely not the west, so they will have to rely on exporting to poorer countries.

The most shocking trend of the next 10 years will be China becoming an economy based on high-complexity manufacturing *while* retaining strong exports *and* appreciating exchange rate that will skyrocket its nominal GDP. Most western economists won't be able to explain this.

@EffortDefines @UnitreeRobotics It’s up the companies like Texas Instruments and Airbus to show off their Chinese robots

@UnitreeRobotics I want to see a single (non-chinese) factory using these or any Chinese built robot. Thus far we see a lot posts and not a lot of customers. They can dance, that much is for sure, but can they don't anything actually productive.

Unitree Launch | Dual‑Arm Humanoid Robot, from $4290🤩 Powered by high‑performance motors and sensors, with integrated binocular vision and voice interaction. Lightweight, compact, and ready for smarter task development.

@x256xx Notice how there’s no counter to the pasta

Can someone explain why $HYPE should be worth anything at all? My takes: 1) Trading in the HL DEX terminal is no different in principle from many other DEXs where you can expect an airdrop. 2) The $HYPE ATH was directly tied to $BTC. 3) The HyperEVM ecosystem is completely dead. All projects allow those with money to earn, while those without either have no reason to use them, or the projects themselves are too poor to offer adequate rewards for using their protocols. 4) All tokens on HL are plummeting to -99%. 5) All NFTs and early projects are either uninteresting to anyone or have already failed. 6) The community that was expecting Season 3 is getting endless announcements about feature improvements, new asset additions, and other updates. 7) Using a CEX is still 1,000 times more convenient due to multi-wallets and network diversity. And even though you don’t fully own your wallet on a CEX, the tokens there are real if you buy them, and you can do whatever you want with them. 8) It feels like HL just got really lucky - they had a bright start but now literally have nothing valuable to offer.

@vk_sterling @EpochPremium Because he’s eating up propaganda from a Scientology like cult that was started in China

@vk_sterling @EpochPremium Are you talking about out yourself?

A Chinese coffee chain in New York City is raising national security concerns. It appears to be a simple business decision—cashless payments only, requiring customers to download an app to pay. But a watchdog group says there could be a national security concern— they send customer data to China.

@teortaxesTex Blame Ambani for providing cheap mobile internet to Indian villagers

Indians are the only true patriots well, Indians, Israelis and Persians watchmen of American sovereignty who will make sure no cecepee demoralization campaign will succeed. Wypipos must be deluded, fat and smug to fight their wars eagerly. This is how Freedom Wins. 🦅🇮🇱🇮🇳🇮🇷❤️🇺🇸🗽

@KiawanC @HongshenZhu And Indian rupee is in a free fall while the Yuan is very stable so it makes sense for Indians to seek dollars.

@HongshenZhu China has no compulsion to export their youth. India does.

The short reign of Chinese international students in the U.S. (2009-2020).

@DarkSto07003429 @lucagrecoita Similar. Chinese government is pushing to have more magnesium content in every car.

@lucagrecoita How much does an aluminum wheel cost? Each one weighs around 14 kg. Also, what’s the price of a magnesium thixomolded wheel?

Magnesium thixomolded wheels weigh 35% less than aluminium and the efficiency gain goes beyond weight alone 💡 The 20" cast aluminium wheels on a Tesla Model 3 or Model Y weigh approximately 14 kg each. A magnesium thixomolded wheel of the same size weighs approximately 8 to 8.5 kg. That is a 5 kg saving per wheel - roughly 21 kg across four wheels. But here is what makes the difference disproportionate. The biggest impact is rotational inertia, not total vehicle mass reduction. Wheels do not just carry weight - they rotate. Rotating mass requires energy to accelerate and decelerate in a fundamentally different way from static mass. The moment of inertia of a rotating body scales with mass. Reduce the mass of a spinning component and you reduce the energy the motors must spend every time the wheel accelerates, and the energy handled during deceleration. The efficiency benefits compound across the duty cycle in a way that the same mass reduction in a static structural component - a bracket, a tray floor, a body panel - simply does not replicate. Observed tests, including one by Tesla Owners Silicon Valley, demonstrated approximately 5% vehicle efficiency increase from this 20 kg wheel saving alone - disproportionate to the mass reduction because of the rotational inertia effect . The comparison: -> Aluminium wheel: ~14 kg each / ~56 kg total (4 wheels) -> Magnesium thixomolded wheel: ~8.5 kg each / ~34 kg total -> Weight saving: 20-22 kg across four wheels -> Efficiency gain: ~5% (amplified by rotational inertia, not just mass) -> Density: Mg at 1.74 g/cm³ vs Al at 2.70 g/cm³ - 35% lighter by mass The cheapest way to improve an EV's range is not always a bigger battery. It might be lighter wheels. The market for magnesium thixomolded wheels is already being built in China.

感觉中国的印度人越来越多了，不知道哪里来的，中国不是一个移民国家。而且我观察他们的YouTube游记，毫不掩饰对中国女性的渴望，到处搭讪猎艳。

@ArchonSoldier @NYCxVILLAIN @alphafox It’s only Tuesday. He’ll be more Christ like near the weekend.

@NYCxVILLAIN @alphafox “Gods soldier” 🤣🤣🤡🤡

Customer states: Do not spray the sealer everywhere! And he completely nails it - oddly satisfying: 😌

@pitdesi Let them stake USDC in a pool take loans out against it in INR.

How can stablecoins reduce remittance fees to zero? makes no sense to me whatsoever. The bulk of remittances $ is migrant workers sending money to family, from US->Mexico, US->India, Gulf->India Stablecoins can make the money-movement leg much cheaper/near-zero but that isn't the bulk of the cost! You still need cash-out, FX, compliance/KYC, fraud controls, customer support, and distribution. When I send money to my cousin in a village in India, there is nothing he can do with USDC. He needs to get the money out into INR and that last mile is where most of the cost lies. Stablecoins can make remittances much cheaper but nowhere near zero.

@morris_que14 Having extremely profitable banks helps

God either loves China or may even be Chinese himself bc how does China keep on having lucky streaks like this? At this point a Chinese millenium must simply be divine ordained and the US is clearly being punished by God.

@OzexpatinAsia @Antiwhippy @jokieliu It’s not called that

@Antiwhippy @jokieliu No China build their developments out of Tofu not Cardboard. Its called Tofu construction

I came across this video on instagram. He said he’s gonna show me the side of China I don’t see online. Turns out it’s just a video of apartment buildings with some weird music. What am I supposed to feel? 💀

In a yield environment you gotta be creative with the yields to get the maximum apy and safety. Frax bond LP checks both.

@BaconOverlord @LongTimeHistory Then don’t do early morning deliveries and just pick the regular Amazon truck delivery

@LongTimeHistory Yeah, nobody believes the drivers doing early-morning Amazon deliveries are legally here. I have a gated community and they call constantly at 4am and gibber in spanish into the speaker because they don't know what the pound sign is.

MAGA man ready to call ICE on Hispanic driver delivering Amazon package—points his shotgun directly at him. Driver was able to run away as homeowner chased—shotgun loaded at him the whole time. Police finally arrived and confirmed delivery driver was legally delivering package on the property. "These early morning shifts are the best blocks and the best paid. But the danger is real, too."

@yesokyeahsure Should have gotten the South Koreans tanks that were designed for the mountains.

What are these Abrams going to do when 3 million drones start raining down the Island
