Yeah, but that was over 20 years ago

Yeah... The main thing I see here is that China (read; government , not the people, not being racist here) will take this code, they will make improvements on it, they will NOT give back. Basically like Microsoft, but now an entire country.

Chinese government hasn't exact had a good reputation when it comes to taking technology and not giving anything back

Yeah, and you're going to vote for the douche, unless you want the orange turd to change your country in an autocratic dictatorship.

You might want to read into how politics works. Biden condens Israel and promptly will lose the next election because Israel has quite the influence in the Jewish population. He loses the election, trump will win andy dear DAMunzy, if you think Palestinians have it bad now, wait until orange dictator comes to power. I believe his words were along the lines of "total eradication".

Biden has done a large number of great things, which I never hear people talk about. I do hear talks about situations where there is no good outcome,.damned if you do, damned if you don't.

What would you have done? Condemn Israel, take away all their money? That would totally not backfire about 6 months from now... Carefully mention to Israel to behave? I've seen Biden do that, for all the good it did... So do whstz exactly?

typically payments made to an official after an official act as a token of appreciation

Am I taking crazy pills or is this asshole just literally saying here that it's okay to be corrupt?

UH OH!

With ICQ I learned the social skills that I couldn't on the real world because I had been bullied to near death. I talked to random people all over the world, learned that I could talk to girls without having to feel like shit.

Used it so much, and with volume up, my upstairs neighbor thought I was watching the teletubbies all the time because of the UH OH!

Met my first girlfriend this way, she was in Mexico, I was in Europe. Moved to Mexico to marry her (bad idea, she was rather manipulativr and a huge cheater as it turned out, got divorced) and lived in Mexico for samn near 20 years.

To say that ICQ had a big positive influence in my life is an understatement, it changed my life beyond anything I've ever had before.

Thank you.

Yeah, though the Chinese government isn't doing this out of the goodness of their heart, this is what open source is about.

A 35 mph crash would make the inside of that cyber truck do https://youtu.be/waG8YYTwpAQ?si=ncyl2l4IiP7GDLuk

Even a simple 10 mph "crash" without crumple zone would be painful to say the least

When the working class revolts, the Uber rich will just use misinformation to blame it on the blacks/Jews/gays/ and the working class will kill them instead

That's how it always has worked, the working class isnt exactly know for seeing through propaganda. This is also the reason why in the US, the Republican party works so hard to destroy education. Dumb people are easier to control, easier to lie to, easier to suppress.

Don't say it ain't so, this shit is right now happening with Trump, and large swathes of the working class are lapping up his lies as if it were caviar, even though Trump is the very prime target they should direct their anger to.
