It’s not a double standard, you just don’t understand the standard.

You feel you have the right and ability to freely associate, "select self"? I agree with your naive libertarian perspective to the degree that it is meant to miss the mark, but when the government has not only violated the law, i.

This does not make any sense to me. “There”? “‘Nationalist’ () bans” of and by whom? Dark propaganda opposed to what, light propaganda? The Chinese model being released is about keeping China down? You seem very animated about this, but you

Then you are looking at it from a totally wrong perspective anyways, just like most people do. The homeless encampments are full of people with mental illness challenges and/or in one or another way related to drugs. It is why I cannot

It is something that is not well understood about the Euro, it is a deal with the devil, with all the hallmarks of looking like a wonderful idea where wishes and imagination blind one to the details and the tricks one opens oneself up to. I

Expecting engineers to refuse and get themselves fired or even finding another job is not good advice at all. It would be far better advice for people with like minds remain in a company like Google and collect data, share knowledge or info

Thank you for that measured response. I was unsure of whether I should use "sophisticated" as it was not mean as an insult or "put-down", than rather more of an indication that the vast majority of people simply do not h

It depends on your definition of communities. The oldest preserved cave paintings and artifacts from what is now Germany indicate that there were communities 35,000-40,000 years ago. Just take a moment and contemplate that the best estimate

That does seem relatively presumptuous of the "scientists". Maybe "humanoid" would be more appropriate, especially considering that it does not seem to demonstrate any effort to accurately represent the human face. It co

What people like you seem to miss or maybe simply lack the sophistication (if I may say so) for, is understanding the nature of the ruling system and how far it will go to achieve its aims, which are also hidden from you. The ruling class a

The funnest part about that is you better make sure no matter what you write is also future proof against any and all whims of any other regime that may rule at any point in the future. But that is ultimately the point of any abusive and to

That is a very simple perspective. Nothing about the current British government would preclude being underhanded and manipulative, i.e., making sure that not only the current US government, but the next system’s candidate is made to feel di

You imply a major if not the only real factor in all of this, the self-destruction America engaged in to “fight communism” by advantaging others at its own detriment. The simple version of this matter is that in the 70-90s it was Japan, fro

Maybe it’s time for you to update your perspective. You strike me as the old guy who curses all the young’ens who use the fancy electric power tools and never learn how to use a manual saw … and you don’t like it much.

In some ways you are probably right, however do not discount the fact that America’s relative weakness has opened up avenues for this type of action that otherwise would have likely not happened out of internal pressure due to concerns abou

Did anyone think at this point, on this trajectory that any British court would have struck this down? It reminds me of whatever the process is that keeps people in abusive relationships rationalizing how things will be fine now because the

You’re dismissing something way more complicated. Many people with good names have supposedly had CP hoards. How would you even go about checking out confirming that it even is CP? You can’t, and would you even want to look into that? No, o

That seems the most plausible answer, especially in context of get revenue question. Over the last ten years, the revenue must have dropped off heavily due to deaths, which will only be accelerating. That would make even just 100,000 users

Yes. I understand that. Most of us are totally detached and solely unaware of what goes on outside of the bubble we are in. Very few of us actually try to find out what is going outside of the walls of Versailles.

I’ve never understood the value proposition of a smart watch for that reason. It seems mostly a fantasy thing based on having been conditioned by movies all their lives. Even the primary use case as a fitness tracker does not make any real

Your question is “what is the deal with Amazfit?” There is an implied question there, but you may want to get a bit more specific. The deal seems to be that you get a really good fitness watch for a fraction of the cost of Android and Apple
