  • Oh, great!

    Jump

  • Gonna recommend Yandex here. Same privacy and data collection issues as Google but the search works way better most of the times. And they don't take down copyrighted material so it's super easy to find pirated illegal streams or books

    Only worse sometimes if you're searching for something dependent on Western culture/slang

  • Hasan got detained by ICE for blatant political reasons.

  • "oh this potential terrorist is going to China? Better let them go and hope they succeed in attacking the Chinese"

  • Touching grass... makes things worse?

  • I've heard that younger zoomers and younger are very gender segregated in social interactions. Friend groups are more singular gendered, parties will have less mixed gender conversations, etc.

    It's possible that boys with a more active social life means they actually disproportionately interact with other boys more, while the online ones may actually interact with girls more, especially since lots more girls are in popular younger online spaces now like Tiktok and Roblox

  • They actually do just make spreadsheets and slideshows after reading financial numbers for 20 hours a day, it's pretty dumb

  • Because if they make MD (a senior title in I banking), they can make millions per year in their 30s

    If they don't, they can exit to private equity, venture capitalism, etc. and also make stupid amounts of money

  • They chose this themselves instead of settling for a lower paying yet still very cushy finance office job

  • Google maps has officially changed the Gulf of Mexico to the "Gulf of America"

    Jump

  • Depending on where the app detects you are, google maps shows different borders and names. So to some countries, it'll show "Gulf of America", "Gulf of Mexico", or even "Gulf of Mexico (Gulf of America)". This is just based on what they perceive to be the most popular politics are in that particular country/government

    A famous example is that the borders of India are slightly smaller or bigger depending if you're in Pakistan, India, or China due to all the border disputes those 3 countries have the region

  • Omg I'm looking at the pull request for this change right now and there's almost 100 comments on it

    Most of it are random software engineers from various ethnicities suggesting better translations for the non-English changes

    People were debating exactly what the geographic boundaries/regions are for the which version you would see to decrease the odds of overall public backlash worldwide

    Some people were trying to protest the change and citing laws and saying Google shouldn't kowtow to Trump

  • China is burning all its bridges with Israel

    Jump

  • Honestly I think they're actually right on this one

    China trades and tries to be friendly with lots of nations that are causing as much or more death and misery than Israel

  • Does lifting weight 3 times a week help you see results and keeps you in shape or is 3 times a week too little to see results?

    Jump

  • ideally each muscle group twice a week but once a week is enough too

    eating and sleeping is just as important if not more than lifting. don't focus too much on the lifting part

    I guess I'm done with reddit...?

  • No, but we can have one here

  • Amnesty: World seeing near breakdown of international law amid wars in Gaza and Ukraine

    Jump

  • Lol they somehow shoehorned China bad in this

    I hope Russia keeps breaking more international laws to subdue Ukraine and NATO and that Israel burns in hell

    Liberal laws are a sham

  • Chinese students in US tell of ‘chilling’ interrogations and deportations

    Jump

  • that 20k is all immigrant visas not just student ones

    also it's 70 postgraduate students in specific engineering/science industries. The huge majority of students are doing bachelor's and a lot of them in shit like econ or math

  • A friend told me that buying things off AliExpress contributes to the "inhumane working conditions in China"

    Jump

  • Those people are hopeless tbh

    There's a reason why Temu is getting so popular and it's people who can't afford to be act all high and mighty realize it's all the same shit
