What a bunch of cuties

There’s no room next to the onion. That’s where I keep my other onion.

Using “us”, as if your opinion is consensus :) And at the same time ignoring all the abuse resulting from your point of view.

It’s indeed a pointless conversation if one party can simply ignore all the hurt, pain and destruction their proposal causes.

China is a bad relationship?

It’s an exploitative autoritarian regime, institutionalising severe human rights abuses (1).

I’ve got some bad news for you but 90% of what you own is made in China.

That’s not news. It’s not because an abuser buys you gifts, that there’s no abuse going on?

I don’t get the abused spouse like logic, where because you get out of one bad relationship, you’d need to start a new one?

that do not engage with politics in China

There’s no such thing. A person nor company can unilaterally decide “not to engage with politics”, as politics engages with them in thousands of ways. The best they can do is self-censorship, which, even when successfull, is in itself a form of political engagement.

which one is the dictatorship?

False dichotomy 🙄

We need them more than ever now that the US has decided to go full mask off.

Who’s “we” in this case? And why would they “need” someone now, because of stuff in the US?

I wonder if complex numbers predate the discovery of electromagnetism

Further, the guy above goes “look at how Xi is suplexing Taiwan?!?!”

I think you’re the only one reading it that way. The rest of us understand that it happens within a context of an autoritarian regime.

which is in the hands of a private company which largely operates independently of the government

Independent untill the party decides they’re not independent. (Eg).

the guy alone has that amount of crushing power.

Nobody of right mind takes this at face value. This isn’t a pro wrestling heavyweight championship belt, with Jinping suplexing the Hong Kong protestors.

It’s obviously as head of an autoritarian communist regime, using corona measures and a militarized police to suppress people for the extravagant act of desiring freedom from the CCP.

Nice 🤜

Infinite library cards!

I don’t have an account on other social media.

Once in a while I do searches like “alternative to X site:reddit.com” for software, movie recommendations, etc. So I do use it, just don’t participate. Mostly because it’s designed to breed hate and distrust.

First I used was dial up. My first recollection of using it was to browse my local kids tv network website.

I think RAG will be surpassed by LLMs in a loop with tool calling (aka agents), with search being one of the tools.

Can you help me understand the use case?

Is it intended to be a variant of Flower AI that can be used in an adversarial environment?
