Is TikTok and US AI tech really seen as real leverage? They seem more like distractions and spectacle. Tarrif’s, sanctions, the fed etc I could see making significant compromises but I don’t really know enough about the situation and what their analysis of how much the economy would be helped etc.

I thought Meta was out of China because they didn’t want to follow Chinese law so got kicked out, would they really change the laws for Meta? (Maybe Meta has changed its mind and would rather be in China than not)

and the supreme court unanimously upheld the law. This was completely bipartisan with overwelming support from both sides(for politicians, normal people are more split on the issue)

…i dont feel like everything is assaulting my dopamine centers to fight for attention…

One video on xhs (giving an overview for the new audience) said that the algorithm isn’t centered around the “rich get richer” effect and tries to give a much more even distribution, which I imagine dilutes all the “dopamine assault” content developed to game tik-tok (profit motive) type algorithms (and other addictive qualities) plus probably makes it more useful as a search engine.

You should have a way to screen shot, and at least on my android it has a translate option open up (mine is vol down and power at the same time)

After “big” events (at least as american reporting) I like to see what chinese commenters think about them, I might have to get the app just for that. I remember like a day or 2 after “the Adjuster” there were some comments confused about why Brian Thompson/CEO was killed and shouldn’t the killer be going after shareholders which I thought was funny but also has its own insight from being further from the situation (pretty sure Brian was a big shareholder anyways)
