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


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

AI is not like a storage disk. if something more efficient came out tomorrow everyone would just scale up training and costs would just go up again


Different bands, very common pairing


Do you just comb through comments assuming the worst intentions and inferring the most negative connotation possible from everyone? Or is this a one time thing? Leave that shit on Reddit please you added absolutely nothing to the discussion

Never. This country will become Idiocracy before people revolt


They actually seem to be quite educated on the topic. Unlike yourself who seems to think that you’d have authority to speak on this issue because you have a certain passport? It’s really not that wild. I moved here as a first generation immigrant about 10 years ago & I pretty much concur what they are saying. Irish and American Italians in Boston and NJ respectively feel that they have more in common with their ‘home’ countrymen than fellow Americans, just one example. Personally I think there’s also an aspect of “oh I’m not just white, I’m actually 1/8 Irish”. Mind you that’s not what I think at all, why would I have a bias against you if you are white? But it’s almost like I’m asked to view them as more than “white American” when people tell me that stuff after I tell them where I’m from. You can imagine what their answers typically were when I asked about whether they often go back to visit family/home or foods they cook. It’s just ancestry, they have no actual ties to those lands.
One thing I will say though is that whenever I’d talk about this kind of thing is that people get weirdly defensive about it. Overall I learned just to let them say what they want to say, it’s not worth my energy trying to understand their mental gymnastics as to why they’re actually as Irish as I am Egyptian. They’re not ready or willing to have that conversation.
…you use AI for spirituality? what are you even talking about
