Taiwan is incredibly pro-US, one of our staunchest allies in Asia, together with Japan. Great idea pissing them off.
It might not work eh? Might it though? I hate this kind of weasel headline almost as much as the constant “slamming”. Just say what you’re going to say.
Might be an unpopular take but… maybe being good at high school math tests is not really such an important gift in the real world.
What will keep you safe is not selling your business to a mega corp.
The big problem is that one usually leads to the other. Saying politically unpopular things in a way those governments perceive as threatening often leads to more than just administrative fines.
Sure but that doesn’t answer the question. Maybe if there were a broad call from their other trading partners to take a moral stance but China is well known for not taking political stances they don’t directly benefit from. Again scoring some easy political points against the US is great but I don’t see them making any serious move here unless it somehow serves their interests (which is a perfectly rational stance to take, it’s not a criticism.)
You have any source on this? It’s one thing for the CCP to use this situation to make the US look bad but do they actually have any incentive to materially support Palestine? Seems unlikely they’d hurt their own trade over this.
joor rite spelin is stoopit an sos punktution. Pandas be damned.
Free (as in beer) is never free
Great, why don’t we hurry the whole WW3 thing along and start bombing our allies too?
Mainly because my Windows license is an OEM one that won’t move to the “new hardware” :/

The US has a ton of problems, I’m not saying it’s a great country to live in necessarily (I wouldn’t move there given the choice). But it’s not a dictatorship where laws are optional for the government.
Maybe freedom doesn’t mean anything to you when you’re not the one being reeducated though.

If it’s a virus presumably it will return. Keep an eye (or ear) on your fan, especially after a restart.
Haha preach brother
Counter point. I had a customer call me back in the day when I was working tech support. Complained that his new computer wasn’t working. Plugged in, light goes on but the screen just stays blank. Turns out he only bought a monitor. Thought the guys at the store were trying to scam him into “buying two boxes” that he didn’t need. When I tried to explain he got mad saying I must be in on the scam.
Bonus points: when the call first connected his question was "why is my email not working?” Took a while to work that back to the actual issue.
I don’t see a ton of human rights protesters in Israel either. Yeah some exist but by far most Israeli voters seem to support the “Palestinians are sub humans” rhetoric at the voting booth.
