You can actually buy Linux computers from dell and Lenovo and they’re even cheaper because you don’t pay for the Microsoft license

I suppose that makes you a ‘doesn’t understand statistics and ignores the evidence’ kind of guy 🤷‍♀️

Good luck out there.

That’s not how statistics works at all. A sample of 30,000 people out of 1,300,000,000 is in fact highly representative. Please go look up how sample sizes work because there is no way to have a meaningful conversation if you don’t understand basic statistics.

There are 1.3 billion people in China and you can read the report to see their satisfaction with a variety of metrics from the indifference of local officials to their participation in public health programs, over the past however many years

I hope you understand that even a 5% disapproval rate for something in China is still somewhere near 70 million people. There are only 11 million uyghurs in China. Do you not see how if you add up all the people who approve and disapprove you get the same ballpark numbers the study is claiming?

Just do the math lol

You just blindly reject Harvard research because deep down inside you know better, right?

It must actually boggle your mind that people can honestly approve of their government even when that government isn’t doing anything special

Did you know around 80% of republicans support Trump? That’s about the same % of Russians who agree w Putin. You can go look that up.

Your intuitive knowledge is worthless

China and America are perfectly functional governments despite their flaws. Are you just looking for an opportunity to dunk on them?

In the area of automative regulation America is the only developed nation to have increased traffic deaths over the past decade or so. You can go verify that fact.

So when it comes to seeing China implement a basic automative regulation, it is indeed a “must be nice” situation.

The problem with your original statement is that it’s stupid and patronizing

Well it is in fact nice for the governed when their governments enforce good regulations. I’m not sure what’s in dispute here, do you not think it’s nice to have a proper regulation in place that will be followed?

Your original statement called the US and China not nice so I just followed your grammar logic 🤷‍♀️

Are you just desperate to have us acknowledge that these countries have serious flaws too?

Well, the US is very nice to corporations which is why they’re often left to self regulate, are regulated by former industry insiders, or are barely regulated through fines and settlements

So yeah I suppose in this regard China is not being nice but being nice doesn’t effectively regulate corporations. This is in fact a good example of a functional government doing its job

Must be nice having a functional government

That’s why I didn’t upgrade to Tahoe

The ultimate conclusion to cheating in video games is literally just having the robot play them for you

Something is just wrong with their brains which allows them to derive pleasure from antisocial activity 🤷‍♀️

I’d much rather organize dnd with you over WhatsApp than deal with whatever it is you want to do

Youre making it even more difficult to have friends

…take the hint and go make your own friends to do activities with lol

Oh man the only thing worse than having to join a community WhatsApp would be a community discord or slack

Is ai already taking their jobs?

Who do you think the FBI would contract to do the work anyway 😬

Maybe not Google but it would sure be some private company. Our government doesn’t do stuff itself almost ever. It hires the private sector

USB c cables right now are often counterfeit or inferior to the listed specs

You need to test them yourself to know their power delivery and features

With a separate port that is a significantly reduced issue

Unfortunately this has an even more serious problem:

How do you know which cable supports which modes of delivery?

Turns out you have a usb c cable that doesn’t actually support power delivery or anything

Now what do you do?

Sounds like a catastrophic success to me
