That seems like a thing that should not be.

I was at that talk. I've never been inspired by an in person speaker like that. Makes one want to unionize.

I'm shocked, shocked, I tell you!

-Nobody

It disappoints me that the level of regulatory capture prevents these companies from being held to account.

I've got one of those laptop chips and I feel exactly the same. I'm going to be watching my temps very closely. My trust is absolutely gone

I like this very much! I'll bring this up to my mayor next time I see him. Big thank.

Thanks for the introduction

Wow. That's really awful! I definitely feel some kind of way about not being surprised about that too.

My wife stopped wearing a pentagram and we took down our love your neighbor sign, you know the one that has that same phrase and several different languages...

Turns out the Christians are too unlike their Christ.

But if China sees chip making as a state asset, I wonder if, knowing this, they may now be able to prevent it.

Hmm

They were exceptionally difficult to find to install the app. That alone will keep them from being successful. Add to that that the app is not particularly impressive... I'm not sure if their chances.

 

This transphobic, anti-gender theory, anti-abortion doctrine of theirs has me completely done with them.

I'm not a rageaholic, but you wouldn't know it when I heard this story come on my news feed. Profanities that came out of me were full-throated, long-winded, and unbecoming.

I was raised Catholic and for a long time since they decided to bless same-sex marriages I was okay with the Catholic Church but what do you know? Just like that. Now I'm anti-Catholic.

They're basically saying that everyone is made perfect in God's image and that by changing your sex your violating that perfection and somehow violating your own dignity? Like, they're trying to say that changing your gender is separating yourself from your soul somehow? I'm done with these people.

Here is a link to the actual document that they produced. Would you believe it took him 5 years to come up with this garbage?

Forgive me if this is the wrong place to post this.

 

Title says it all. Somewhat interesting if true. I wouldn't be surprised either way.

 

China accused the US of infiltrating Huawei Technologies Co. servers beginning in 2009, part of a broad-based effort to steal data that culminated in tens of thousands of cyber-attacks against Chinese targets last year.

The Tailored Access Operations unit of the National Security Agency carried out the attacks in 2009, which then continuously monitored the servers, China’s Ministry of State Security said in a post on its official WeChat account on Wednesday. It didn’t provide details of attacks since 2009.

Cyberattacks are a point of tension between Washington and Beijing, which has accused its political rival of orchestrating attacks against Chinese targets ever since Edward Snowden made explosive allegations about US spying. Washington and cybersecurity researchers have said the Asian country has sponsored attacks against the West.

The ministry’s accusations emerged as the two countries battle for technological supremacy. Huawei in particular has spurred alarm in Washington since the telecom leader unveiled a smartphone powered by an advanced chip it designed, which was made by Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp. That’s in spite of years-long US sanctions intended to cut Huawei off from the American technology it needs to design sophisticated chips and phones.

The US has been “over-stretching” the concept of national security with its clampdown on Chinese enterprises, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning told reporters at a regular press briefing in Beijing on Wednesday.

“What we want to tell the US is that suppression and containing of China will not stop China’s development. It will only make us more resolved in our development,” Mao said.

On Tuesday, US Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo said she was “upset” when Huawei released the Mate 60 Pro during her visit to China last month, but noted the US has no evidence the Asian nation can make the advanced semiconductors powering the handset “at scale.”

 

This article from 2022 does a very good job of capturing the social media landscape and the condition of political discourse right now. It highlights one thing that I've been hearing a lot and agree with, the cruelty is the point.
