@kyleichan India is so ridiculously far behind. It’s not even funny anymore. While AI will be a net positive for China and America, India will suffer. Their labor-intensive low-value back-office outsourcing and software sweatshops will be annihilated by AI.

@rwang07 LOL?

@OedoSoldier @teortaxesTex In that sense a Taiwan war is crucial to China assuming its hegemonic position in the region. A direct analog to the American-Spanish war.

@RupprechtDeino @alpha_defense @ReviewVayu Yeah, I don‘t understand how people can take modern fighter jets seriously from countries that don‘t have globally competitive electronics and software industries. Russia is not about to master the kind of complex sensor fusion America and China spend billions on to perfect.

@InsideChinaAuto Traditional manufacturing powerhouses in Europe and East Asia all have critical shortfalls in software capabilities. China and America play in a league of their own. This gives China unique strengths at a time where software is finally eating up traditional industries.

@foolsball Exactly. At this point it’s just a drone right?

@hofunghung ‘many of their parts are manufactured elsewhere; [..] Huawei’s 5G base station [..] are cases in point.’ The source you provide here is half a decade old. Do you honestly still believe this to be true?!

@JoannaSopinska @valentinapop @AndyBounds This should be coupled with strict sales taxes and/or regulations to limit the sale of Pickups and other trucks.

@aliceysu ‘The DPP was full of “ethnic traitors” who were selling Taiwan out to America, he said, and obstructing the Chinese nation’s great rejuvenation.’ Difficult to disagree with that.

@willmenaker Absolutely brutal that just posting this guy’s face and name is one of the worst insults I can think of.

@HimanshTalan @tphuang Indian auto workers make 1 lakh rupees a month?

@dunne_insights Is $115b enough to have surpassed Japan in 2024? Catching up to Germany in #1 will take some doing.

@RobboLaw That’s what the Babylon Bee guys think?! Holy shit. I just thought they were corny dipshits. But Joel seems like a legitimate psychopath here.

@GrumpyG53751044 @AJ_FI Looks like it.

@PhilippvBecker Diese live, im Moment andauernde, Schaffung einer Narrative und Normalisierung vormals undenkbarer Gräueltaten ist schon atemberaubend.

@GrumpyG53751044 @AJ_FI Oh, you’re right. I missed those. Any number of miscellaneous micro rovers might be included (in cooperation with Pakistan, Turkey, private players, etc). But it’ll have two primary ones.

@GrumpyG53751044 @AJ_FI Three that we know of: A solar powered Yutu-2 equivalent focused on nobel gases, a novel nuclear battery powered one to collect regolith for the kiln on the lander, and the Pakistani one. Maybe they’ll bring along Chang’e 6 style roving cameras.

@pandawatch88 By continuing to bolster the war chest of tech companies at the core of America’s civil military fusion strategy China is subsidizing American R&D that is laser focused on developing the capabilities to annihilate every Chinese person on earth.
