  • From 11 to 19 is always kind of weird in many languages. In Italian you go from essentially saying "one-ten" "two-ten"..."six-ten" to "ten-seven" "ten-eight" "ten-nine". Then it goes in like in English. Why? No reason ¯(ツ)/¯

  • China isn't communist. China is a capitalist dictatorship with one man at the top, a few people taking decisions and raking in all the profits and everyone else wage slaving away. Tell me what it reminds you

  • I have an automatic, drove a manual for years and a few times a year I still need to drive a manual, but I've never really done this, aside from maybe a couple times the very first time I got my automatic.

    What usually happens is I stall the manual once or twice forgetting to press the clutch while decelerating. Not that often anyways.

    But maybe it's cause I learned on a manual, not an automatic

  • Yes in the sense that all communist countries are state capitalism, no in the sense that it betrays the very ideology of communism.

    If you think about it it's very much the same structure as a big business, with the "boss" at the very top, the party being the shareholders and executives swallowing all the profits and at the bottom are all the workers getting the shaft.

    The main differences with normal capitalism is that the state here has an army, police and a full monopoly, so the party can literally do whatever they want to whoever they want within China. They don't play by the rules, they write the rules, ie, a capitalist wet dream.

  • What Era was the best and why was it the 90s?

  • It felt like we, as a society, had so much optimism for the world that was to come. So, if anything, I think that’s what I’m mostly nostalgic for. I was so excited to grow up in that world. Damn.

    As with anything regarding the past, there's a lot of rose-tinted glasses going on. Be careful what you wish for

  • Windows feature that screenshots everything labeled a security “disaster”

    Jump

  • It's not a bug, it's 110% intentional and not only for the windows default screenshot utility. The whole pipeline is built in such a way to prevent you from taking screenshots or capturing video of a DRM protected player.

    Even in Linux, afaik, you can't simply take screenshots or record a Netflix movie playing in the browser. Yes there are ways, but not with the default applications (you need to break the encryption)

  • Anything discontinued should stop being protected by copyright law, and the manufacturer should be forced to give every piece of information they have on that product.

  • Reddit brings back its old award system — ‘we messed up’

    Jump

  • I'm not sure the old new one is that much better than the new new one tbh. I always found it to be bloated af, especially with time it got worse and worse. Also, why are both sites so slow?

    There is no genocide in China

    Jump

  • Have you read the report?

    I haven't read it all, but from reading like a couple paragraphs it says that the Chinese government is making mass incarcerations with accusations of extremism and terrorism, while these terms are not well defined and it appears that they are only targeting Muslims for their religion. Furthermore in these jails it appears that the Chinese government is doing things like forced injections, forcing people to take pills and other classics like torture, waterboarding and rape, invasive gynecological exams etc.

    Inmates are forbidden to pray with guards making rounds at night to ensure compliance, being forbidden to speak their own language or practice anything from their culture. Prominent scholars, artists and intellectuals are being incarcerated, people are forbidden to leave the region or to receive or send money from the outside.

    If it were Israel doing this, and they are doing this, you'd call it genocide, wouldn't you?

    Or doesn't Uyghurstan have the same right to exist as Palestine?

  • Don't get me wrong, I'm still very against conservative Muslims, as much as I am against conservative Christians, ultra-orthodox Jews etc...

    But it's clear that there's nuance, so like one can be a Christian and also be accepting of gays and trans people, one can be the same while believing in Islam. The ones I can't stand are those that use their preferred book to put themselves on a pedestal and be terrible to other people, but this trait is not limited to one specific religion, or even to religion itself.

  • Probably that a Muslim can both be open to trans people and wear a hijab at the same time.

    Tbh is much easier to reconcile than you'd think.
