I don’t really care about this though tbf, most comic book heroes have multiple incarnations often with gender-swap and different ethnic groups, Ariel on the other hand is a character from a traditional European fairy tale. It bothers me more to see Tom Cruise as “the last samurai” than some random modern comic book character with slightly off skin color.

Excellent! Exactly what I was looking for, but it’s not on the fediverse website? Did I miss it?

Yes, and?

What’s unwatched?

WTF? I tought ziz was dead, wasn’t there a triple suicide case?

What a stupid post. Obviously the type of right-leaning people that complain about taxes don’t believe in exploitation of labor in the Marxist sense. It’s when you hear those Christians ask “why do atheists hate god?” because they’re so caught in their ideology they can’t conceive in people thinking differently than them.

This actually seems realistic, foxes have been domesticated in a short period of time, and fennecs are adorable

Zebras are extremely aggressive and violent

Saved.

Actually there was already a known proof of PT that was based on trigonometry, the proof of the students is also unlikely to be accepted as it relies on calculus and not pure trigonometry.

I use mojeek. It’s good enough for me, image search sucks though

Edit: ups

Pretty sure this article has been at least partially written by an AI

The government is totally not going to abuse this

Fair enough, that’s not a power station tough. IMO stone weathering is a superior carbon capture process

I mean, a biomass power station should have no net emission, that’s the whole point

Are you dense?

Been to Guangdong, Beijing and Wuhan for work as early as this February. Very mixed experience for me. Rent is extremely variable depending where you are, can be as low as 100 $ a month for a rather shitty place up to several tens of thousand for places in the city of various quality (including abysmal).

Food is REALLY cheap, you could eat at a restaurant 3 meals a day and spend less than 10 buck in total, even higher end restaurants are much cheaper, for other stuff like clothes it varies, they are cheaper in general but not even remotely like the food.

There are definitely homeless people even children, it’s just that many Chinese cities are organized in sort of like “areas” so if you don’t look in the right places you won’t see them. Based on my experience I can sort of make up 3 or 4 types of areas (this is China so each area can be the size of a city itself):

1. Corpo Block. A large area sold out to corporations or other large institutions (banks, embassies etc.). Squicky clean, glass skyscrapers and trees, pretty much only offices and no one lives there, beautiful but also soulless and boring

2. Generic Block. Most of chinese city areas look like this. Ugly buildings, very clean but kinda of uncanny, some green here and there, lots of people, smog. Still better than American suburbs for sure.

3. The Slums. Trash, some homeless people, crappy place overall. Looks like someone fed Blame! pages to stable diffusion and had them colorized.

4. “Trad Block”. Beautiful, clean, some traditional oriental urban aesthetics incorporated with modern buildings. Legitimately wouldn’t mind living there, unfortunately the most rare type

Traina are fast, punctual and clean, but overall the experience is something out of Brazil (the movie). Taking the train is more complicated than flying. Firstly, as a foreigner you can’t buy the ticket like a normal humanoid, you need to go to a special office with documents and shit (this is true for lots of things, foreigners are basically second class citizens, tourists or not). Then they’ll check you when you enter the station, they’ll check you again when the train arrives, and the one more time before boarding the train, finally they’ll check you when you leave the station, also, occasionally they’ll complain for BS like carrying a shaving foam and other TSA-like BS

Where are you? I’ve been to China recently and it doesn’t reflect my experience at all

WTF?
