  • Just because you have an unpopular opinion in actual tech leaning groups doesn't mean it's group think. It means your opinion sucks

  • Why is kali always in these memes? Does anyone actually use it?

  • I completely agree with everything you said, it's an unfortunate situation but unfortunately no government is really equipped to be able to compete against nationalized undercutting. And it's really a responsibility moreso at that level, rather than at the individual level since everyone around the world these days is getting squeezed financially.

  • I mean, first of all, you misunderstood my comment. I meant that in a car with the same level of technology, safety, and power, the price is a lot more attractive for any consumer to buy Chinese. You're falling into the same trap that I described assuming that the Chinese vehicles are of a lower quality on average which is completely not the case anymore. Not in technology, not in safety, not even in design in the most recent models.

    Second, using the lowest bar for the price of a vehicle is a weird way to gauge world interest in vehicles. There have always been dirt cheap cars with next to no features other than an engine, produced in India or Japan for certain markets. I'm not talking about those in general. For example Chinese automobiles are absolutely dominating the markets in regions like UAE, Saudi, Kuwait, Qatar where the target consumer wouldn't think twice about paying for a Bentley or any European marque. So I'm not sure what your Walmart analogy was meant to achieve but it falls flat. Trust me I'm the last person that thinks any of these vehicles should be sold in the US, that would decimate our auto industry.

    But objectively, if I lived somewhere where the vehicles that were available in the middle east were sold, I wouldn't think twice about getting a luxurious powerful car for the price of a Camry in the states.

  • It literally makes no sense as a consumer to buy otherwise. Whatever moral high ground or technological advantages western companies wanted people to believe they had have vanished in the last 5 years

  • Correct me if I'm wrong but as far as I understand the point is to not get your jaw broken fighting someone you have no chance against

  • Yeah apologies for growing up in a healthy household

  • Yes but are you physically equipped to print that sort of stuff was the question

  • I couldn't find anything about this on the Asus Linux blog, am I just dumb and looking in the wrong place? I use Asus-linux and didn't know about this :(

    Edit: unfortunately it seems that bullshitters who make shit up on the spot have made their way over to Lemmy boo me

  • There's no winning with you. You argue with the same logic as a trump supporter.

  • I am so damn tired hearing about this stupid engagement. If the goal of this post is that we're going to talk sexism and feminism, the last way it should be done is through the lens of an out of touch idolized billionaire

  • Of course the PTSD folks went through it. Though I am arguing with you I want to make it clear I meant zero disrespect or antagonization for anyone who lived through that as part of the expelling force. I was there as a citizen. My point was that your comment made it seem as if Kuwait has been a hot zone in between those times and I got upset and perhaps reacted poorly.

  • There's fucking nothing traumatic happening in Kuwait right now. Or in that last 20 years for that matter. Get your head out of your ass. What is this bullshit pulling on your heartstrings fearmongering nonsense comment. "She's been to Kuwait already" dumbass I've been to all the bases in Kuwait multiple times it's chill. They train and they have a taco bell. It's admin HQ for operations nearby

  • Yes I uninstalled everything except Lemmy and it feels like 2007 again

  • I smoke. Shame and self hatred is exactly right.
