This is rational from China’s perspective. Divesting in the American technology pipeline not only weakens America’s grip on the global economy but also positions China as the leader in global technology.
Also, we have more evidence of US putting back doors into technology than we do China. If you’re living in the imperial core, it’s far more likely that the US is monitoring your activities than China is.
Free = Freedom not free as in it costs nothing. Look it up.
I’ve been using gsudo for a long time, its a game changer.
Damn I didn’t know this was a thing till today.
I say this all the time, but regulations are written in blood.
I think there is an assumption that is rooted in how reddit worked, that votes are anonymous. People operating under that assumption might not like having that blanket ripped off. It would be different if it was up front from the start.
I was finally getting started on Capital this weekend, and he makes an offhand note about diamonds regarding their value, basically saying: “If we were to contrive a way to create diamonds from carbon, the price of diamonds would fall to the price of bricks”. Well, it turns out In general, lab-created diamonds are about 60-90% cheaper than natural diamonds. They may not be “The price of bricks” but they sure are a hell of a lot cheaper than natural diamonds.

Do you like being the global economic superpower with hegemonic influence over the world economy? Because this is a good fucking way to get other nations to tell you and the World Bank to fuck right off. Can’t seize assets that are not part of your banking regime, and this definitely incentivizes de-dollarization.
Could this result in a balkanization effect? Lots of exit talk in the last 10 years (caliexit, texit). Could conditions be reaching similar states that invoked things like The Hartford Convention?
My thinking is there would probably need to be more external intervention for that to a happen. Which I think aligns with history.
This is a very gameable system too (in a positive sense). I already want to play an orc who has different ideas about orc society who might want to challange tradition and build my own tribe.
I don’t know if you’ve considered that side of it before but its very cool.
Typical Redditor behavior, you don’t even stop to look at who you are speaking with, you just assume every comment below yours is somehow the same person, and not possibly someone else who also thinks you’re a total chud.
