“Twitter has two important advantages over other social media platforms,” Haqqani said in an English post on Twitter. “The first privilege is the freedom of speech.

I know it's the Taliban but I cannot believe how braindead they are. They don't even remember that they're so anti free speech, they'll hunt down and kill dissidents especially women who have the guts to get an education.

You guys hit fast. It's funny how the CCP argument against any kind of criticism is always to point out Western flaws like we don't already do that enough! Grow a brain moron. That's called whataboutism, did your state provided handbook provide any other strategies?

If you see how she runs her instance it's no surprise. I'm sure the ban list for their instance is long and will eventually include the entire fediverse.

Their denial of the Uyghur genocide and that it's a multi-nation spanning conspiracy to smear china is closer to the correct one?

I barely stated my positions, what do you think my position is besides that China is an authoritarian state?

Damn, that's a terrifying vision of the future. I was on the fence with defederating, but we probably should.

Your comment should be top.

The leftists I know are under no impression that the Chinese government isn't under a brutal authoritarian rule, i think this is a petty novel strain. Why does being a Marxist-leninisy necessitate defending and denying state atrocities?

An actual ecosystem would keep the tick population down though, but also if you don't have deer regularly roaming through your front yard you should be fine too

I think those users who live under oppressive governments should be used to using tools like Tor and accounts with a proton email to interact on the internet.

I have a hard time believing that this announcement is just a straight up lie. If they don't have an actual working prototype, regardless of scale costs that they may be ignoring, wouldn't they be open to a stakeholder suit for misleading the investors?

The Lyubchyks estimate that the levelised cost of energy – the average net present cost of electricity generation for a generator over its lifetime – from these devices will indeed be high at first, but by moving into mass production..

So next to the fact that these nanotubes will clog with bacteria/particles from the air, and that they'd likely solve it with another device that completely purifies and pushes the air, I'm not hopeful.
