I often hear people in the West deride China as communist and a much worse place than America. I'd like to understand why. The term "socialist" or "communist" is not detailed enough to explain why, so give more details.

Free markets, private property ownership, and the profit motive are very powerful, distributed things that make a country rich. China has adopted all of them. They say it is "glorious to get rich" and there are wealthy business owners making a killing.

What appears to be different is that China has the CCP which acts as a top-down authority that can pretty much do whatever it wants. So people have economic freedom as long as they don't piss off the CCP.

But America's executive has sovereign immunity. The Executive branch can violate all kinds of laws and you cannot sue them for it. They can ignore the Supreme Court (and have). And they have all the ultimate power. So just like in China, you have economic freedom as long as you don't piss off Joe Biden.

So to me the difference is only in the specifics. China controls speech a lot more (which I very much don't like), but the US is trying hard to catch up. China still tries to do "think big" projects that most Western countries already learnt should be market driven, not government driven.

What did I miss? I must have missed something important.

China has mobile execution vans.

A squarfle is not a bingaloo, merely a flibbidy-booger to a mangrove swamp.

Ok, where are the commies ???

Teaching your kids.

Why do we need 2 devices – smartphone and a computer?

Smartphones should've replaced computers by now. They're powerful enough to handle most tasks, and they already have support for external monitor, keyboard, and mouse.

I shouldn't have to secure two devices, especially a desktop or a laptop that I can't carry around easily. Imagine a world where your smartphone is your only hardware device, and when you connect to any random external monitor with mouse and keyboard, it displays a desktop experience.

The only thing holding my dream back is software. #Android OS, while very good, it's not the same as #Windows or #Linux. Most apps aren't optimized for big screens. We need this.

IvorTollah 1y ago

You're right, the average home user has no need for 2 devices. The day will come when we will just plug our phones into a docking station like device that will allow us to use multiple peripherals regardless of software. The day might come when we don't even need a cellphone, the cpu will be strapped to our wrists and connect wirelessly to larger screens and whatever input devices operate with them. Sadly I fear this will not happen in my lifetime as there are too many vested interests in the status quo. No one is interested in making radical changes to hardware, all we seem to get is more emojis and AI powered electronic surveillance.

Welcome to New Zealand, where we recycle potato chip packets into foil blankets to keep people warm.

I tried to turn of ABD but also failed.

I have limited experience with Xiaomi phones, but it would not surprise me to learn that they have extra built-in security restrictions that prevent you from using root functionality.

I still don't fully understand Bitcoin mining. However, I know I want to use one to try to extend our growing season a bit.

First step complete. Get the Antminer s9i hooked up in the greenhouse. Had to use 2 extension cords and a long ethernet cable. Not ideal, but it is working. Moved a YoLink temperature/humidity probe in to track the temperature.

I read "Antimatter" instead of "Antminer" and for 2 seconds tgere you suddenly became very interesting.

Hey nostr:npub1w6959jfmvcx70uyyu2hlkwlecllfl9qy74gqpasrmeswhm5fm30q9ufw2l you still using Fossify? What do you think?

I'm finding the group text to be problematic.

IvorTollah 1y ago

Yes, tried sending a picture to a family group the other day and there was no way to tell whether it was successfully sent or not. Ended up sending it 3 times to 5 different people. Apart from that, it working out pretty well.

Is running friend. But I think my phone has additional security issues that block interaction with Obtanium.

IvorTollah 1y ago

What kind of phone is it?
