> the durian would still probably have the highest grapple factor among Southeast Asia’s endemic fruits. Thai exports of the fruit are mostly destined for China, where consumers tend to be more willing to work for their meals.
Actually, Durain is not that hard to process, a chopstick or a screwdriver can do the job easily, can't be harder than opening a whole Jamón.
> I'm guessing because they can't effectively monitor information on the platform.
I not sure about this. Usually, they won't let a social platform operate without a self-censoring team, I guess they will force gaming platforms to
do the same.
One thing I really don't like about minimalists is they boast too much about the numbers of different items they own. Not all wears are made by the fast fashion industry as a result of consumerism. I have bike wear, climbing wear and running wears but I use them interchangeably and try to buy less because I'm relatively poor. IMO minimalists should expand their hobbies (which are rarely low-cost so they will try to optimize their spendings) rather than confine themselves in the established social norms.
There were no new cases in China except Wuhan and HongKong a week ago, how's that possible if they weren't covering up?
> how made fun of China was in past South Park episodes
Well, stereotypes of Chinese aren't eloquent enough to piss off the CCP. As a mainlander, Band in China is a spot-on satire about China under Xi's ruling (apart from the background music), and every threat to the legitimacy of the authority would be quenched while making fun of Chinese ppl is by no means harmful.
No one calls it HongKongese b/c it is not that different, you're exaggerating. Not all people in Guangzhou can speak Cantonese and those who can, even if they are native speakers, might not accent-savvy enough to tell an HKer if he/she tries to avoid some unique phases.
You know the main purpose of nationalism in China is to justify goverment decrees right? They don't hate other countries by heart spontaneously, not like those in the US.
Even better, there are "PD 诱骗头" for Surfaces, ThinkPads and other laptops using proprietary DC ports. Try searching "PD 诱骗头" + "<your laptop's brand>" in alibaba/taobao.
> I've come to believe that most governments are inept when it comes to the management, security and general quality of their software.
They are very well aware of it, so they do outsourcing to pro-CCP companies, e.g. Hikvision, Face++.
Sadly the main commemorative events only take place in Hong Kong and Taiwan(Macau is not included), but you know the consequence of going against totalitarian government right?.
And you miss the whole point of censorship. It's about making people reluctant to remembering it.
More probably for the impending 30th anniversary of 1989 Tiananmen Square protests.
> Beijing is a large city with 16,810 km² area. Building superblocks is a reasonable choice in Beijing
This is the cart before the horse. Beijing didn't start out as a large city. It is municipal annexation that makes Beijing a large city, which is fairly common in China, e.g. Beijing and Xiong'an, Guangzhou and Panyu, Nansha.
How about getting a pair of BeatsX earbuds, cut those crappy units off and make what's left a Bluetooth adapter with MMCX connectors that are compatible with your IEMs. Seems to have the best of the both worlds.
Not a US citizen, but AFAIK, a course includes lectures, office hours, assignments etc. How did he manage to fully understand the materials without all the resources that are provided only for registered students?
It's empathy I think, games are extremely capable of that.
What's the point of having an A12X chip while running everything remotely?
Boredom w/ and w/o motivation. I feel the same.
An iPod, a phone, an Internet communicator. Are you getting it? These are not three separate devices. Apple reinvented the original iPhone :)
Thanks for your comment, now I am considering to get one.
Anyone here uses Apple Watches as new gen pagers? Do you get a whole day LTE standby time with some useless stuff disabled?
China just marks parts of the Internet as a territory and introduces laws that meet the authority's satisfaction. Since free information and speech make people call in questions about the legitimacy of ‘the party leads everything’ and dark past, this situation won't get changed unless we distribute everything(but decentralization violates tech giants‘ interest) or a regime change happened. Otherwise, progress US and other countries made would just hold up a while.
I share the same desire, but since we put price tags on land, it would be a tremendous effort to collect funds to buy land back and most people just don't have the incentive to make that happen. It's just a fantasy.
Will Apple ditch Lightning and switch to USB Type-C solve your problem?
> China's mobile app ecosystem is pretty good at providing technology that brings them together rather than drives them apart
What makes you think of that? Please elaborate. IMO people chat, share stuff, pay and do others things in the same app(wechat) is neither necessary nor helpful for bringing them together.
We aren't born in perfection. I'm assuming we all live healthy lives already, but that's not gonna cure everything.
I understand my opinion isn't popular, or easy to accept. However, some people (including me) have mild or severe anxiety, are ruled by fear in their entire lives. Having drugs doesn't mean they can eliminate what is encoded in their gene, but it can make dealing with their emotion more approachable, that's enough.
ps: I do L-Theanine, which can be found commonly in teas.
