If you have a windows 10 laptop, pinching on the touchpad seems to give you the same zoom functionality now. vastly superior than the one built into the browser
It was nearly a golden age in indochina. People in countries like Malaysia, Indonesia, (South) Korea, Thailand, Taiwan, etc experienced incredible and permanent improvement in living standards
but yeah it wasn't that great anywhere south of cancun or cairo
Despite what western media outlets say, this is not necessarily a bad thing. Military juntas are often a good/restorative part of government in countries like Thailand and Myanmar, and are well received by the general public.
Doesn't mesh well with washington kissinger pastiche though
It is being allowed with proper oversight. These people are just experimenting underground.
The problem with this tech isn't just the Übermensch (or should I say, ÜberTiāncháo) that we will have to deal with, but more subtle. For instance, a percentage of northern europeans are already partially genetically immune to HIV/AIDS [1]
People with sickle cell anaemia are already somewhat immune to Malaria [2]. Some gibbering genius in a laboratory might decide to cure the human race of Anaemia and inadvertently cause millions of people to start dying of malaria or dengue.
There are plenty of "problem" genes that we carry in our genome that scientists will want to "fix", and then we will discover the hard way why those genes are there in the first place. This absolutely needs to be controlled. The coming man will not be an Übermensch, but a CRISPR-castrato
The real question is why are people incapable of regulating their own behaviour. It's convenient to say that talking about hanging politicians encourages this behaviour, and contributes to it
End of the day though -- why should my speech be held as responsible for another persons conduct?
It won't, but the media will blame it on the alt-right. "White privileged mcdonalds workers oppress poor minority new york billionaires with their greedy market manipulation! "
the word retard is common parlance in many parts of the world.
But lets not be retarded about this, the point is more that they are using a puritan argument about the word retard in a retarded manner in order to shut down discourse, to try and retard the share price of a stock, which has had absolutely retarded performance lately.
>The AJM hasn't recommended anything. AJM has published a paper titled "Pathophysiological Basis and Rationale for Early Outpatient Treatment of SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) Infection".
>It hasn't published it "now". It has published it back in August of 2020.
"The American Journal of Medicine, Vol 134, No 1, January 2021", Page 18, shows a treatment algorithm for Covid-19-like and confirmed Covid-19 illness, specifying 200mg of Hydroxochloroquine for patients over the age of 50 or with a single comorbidity.
I'm not talking about the primary study on HCQ, but the treatment algorithm is recent.
I thought this was quite interesting; after considerable negative coverage in the news-media, now an article in the American Journal of Medicine has recommended treatment of 200mgof Hydroxochloroquine per day for Covid-19 patients.
Negative media coverage has continued until quite recently:
Battery tech wasn't that good back then. I think the consumer electronics battery boom (i.e. putting batteries in cellphones, laptops, etc) has advanced the tech considerably. Not my area of expertise though
Toyota is in a much better position than E.U. or U.S. manufacturers, except for Tesla.
In the early 00's, the EU introduced emmissions regulations focused on Carbon, which didn't take sulphur into account. That's why Volkswagen and others like Mercedes focused so heavily on small diesel turbo engines, and explains the 2005-2010 or so diesel vehicle boom.
American manufacturers mostly just made big gas sonking vehicles running on petrol
Japanese manufacturers developed the Prius and other hybrid-electric products and were early to the game. Remember that the Toyota Prius Hybrid Electric vehicle was released in 1997. 1997! They currently sell four million units a year of Prius alone, and definitely have the knowledge + capacity to mass produce EV's
It's less helpful in already highly agricultural nations like the US, but in countries with scarce arable land or fragile ecosystems, or just very small countries like Singapore/Cambodia, vertical farming is superior to greenhouses simply due to square footage
Yeah they did, we have had similar problems in Australia
The thing is, it's still a lot better than the mid-century horror stories of institutions; electrotherapy, lobotomy, people being drugged into a permanent fugue state, sexual abuse, etc. Those concerns are what drove these changes to the system.
people running multi billion dollar enterprises usually just hire people to be their personal productivity app. I mean, personal assistants and secreterial staff.
Even in fairly developed countries it's not too expensive to just hire a low wage person to act as the productivity app between a few executives.
parler is owned by partisan media personalities such as dan bongino now. gab is political, but more so in terms of ideas and values. parler is explicitly, aggressively, partisan political from what i can see. I don't use either platform
If they get large quantities of Gen-X and baby boomers to move from FB to Gab, I think that will kill FB.
When they open up digital marketing on a platform thats less saturated, that will be the real test though. If Gab can do digital marketing decently corporations will start paying them money and stop criticising them so openly.
