And I love impotent people.
Governments can and do target individuals, see sanctions on russian oligarchs. How is your memory so bad?
Plus, new tax rules are drafted every single year, to encourage or slap down specific stuff, why you acting like it’s impossible when it’s not even rare?
They are subsidiaries of US companies. You draft a list of wholly or majority US owned tech subsidiaries, and you tax them out of the wazoo, done.
I’m sure tax and trade experts can come up with better approaches.
25% on tech services is where you’ll see America panic.
Oh look. Another Nintendo console that I’m NOT going to buy.
My last one was a used Wii that came hacked and I could load anything into it, and I’m perfectly happy if that’s the last Nintendo console I’ll ever buy.
They probably saw the Zelensky “talks” and decided to save their time.
Of course I am, there’s no way I can escape mkvs. It’s not too bad if it doesn’t have to transcode the actual video stream, but having to burn in subtitles is a common issue 😭

What’s your argument? That they should implement the “American Way” - crush education and paywal it so only the elite can have it while the rest of the nation lives in ignorance?

It saddens me that we’re here dealing with a push for obsolete, untenable solutions, and all the while, China keeps solving your “impossible issues” on the daily:
AI post? The reply doesn’t even make sense.
You could, but with that colossal amount of resources you could have built 12x in renewables, probably more because of economy of scale.
And if you decide to commit all those resources to renewables, you probably just created a booming local industry of well paying jobs.
And in those 6 years, you could have built over 6x that capacity in renewables, easy.
That’s a lot of text, and yet, solving all of that is easier, faster and less expensive than nuclear.
I’ve considered it, some renewables installation jobs I’ve seen are extremely well paid.
I disagree, with a passion.
It is soooo cluttered, so much useless redundant tags everywhere. Just give JSON or YAML or anything really but XML…
But to each their own i guess.
