How is this valves problem? Shouldn’t the NY state government be banning shit like this? This is a policy thing

…you use AI for spirituality? what are you even talking about

Just because you have an unpopular opinion in actual tech leaning groups doesn’t mean it’s group think. It means your opinion sucks

Why is kali always in these memes? Does anyone actually use it?

I completely agree with everything you said, it’s an unfortunate situation but unfortunately no government is really equipped to be able to compete against nationalized undercutting. And it’s really a responsibility moreso at that level, rather than at the individual level since everyone around the world these days is getting squeezed financially.

I mean, first of all, you misunderstood my comment. I meant that in a car with the same level of technology, safety, and power, the price is a lot more attractive for any consumer to buy Chinese. You’re falling into the same trap that I described assuming that the Chinese vehicles are of a lower quality on average which is completely not the case anymore. Not in technology, not in safety, not even in design in the most recent models.

Second, using the lowest bar for the price of a vehicle is a weird way to gauge world interest in vehicles. There have always been dirt cheap cars with next to no features other than an engine, produced in India or Japan for certain markets. I’m not talking about those in general. For example Chinese automobiles are absolutely dominating the markets in regions like UAE, Saudi, Kuwait, Qatar where the target consumer wouldn’t think twice about paying for a Bentley or any European marque. So I’m not sure what your Walmart analogy was meant to achieve but it falls flat. Trust me I’m the last person that thinks any of these vehicles should be sold in the US, that would decimate our auto industry.

But objectively, if I lived somewhere where the vehicles that were available in the middle east were sold, I wouldn’t think twice about getting a luxurious powerful car for the price of a Camry in the states.

It literally makes no sense as a consumer to buy otherwise. Whatever moral high ground or technological advantages western companies wanted people to believe they had have vanished in the last 5 years

Correct me if I’m wrong but as far as I understand the point is to not get your jaw broken fighting someone you have no chance against

Yeah apologies for growing up in a healthy household

Ended up being the most out of touch bullshit I’ve seen in a while. What the absolute fuck was that ending. Some pretty good jokes though

Maybe in the states but in Canada and Europe its been prevalent for the last 10 years at least. Us Arabs are now the minority flavor of the week for white sympathy, and young people who don’t know any better think they should suddenly tolerate our intolerance because we’re disenfranchised. And that sucks because 10 years down the line some radical fuck is gonna do some extremist bullshit in “little Mogadishu” and anti-arab sentiment will become popular again, rinse and repeat

I mean, fair enough. I’ll admit I’m biased against Islam because of my experiences and upbringing but there is some weird exception progressives seem to have for Muslims

I completely agree, and allowing athan to be broadcast is, for me, not the same as public expression. A person wearing hijab, sure. That’s an individual choice and personal expression . Lobbying the town hall so you can blast prayer 5 times a day to give the neighborhood a religious ‘in-group’ feel is borderline exclusionary, and not my jam. I get the vibe you haven’t been/lived in a Muslim country. The athan is literally nothing but a nuisance to non Muslims. It’s like a 5 minute declaration/command for prayer at full volume 5 times a day.

Yes, it’s popular among the youth in the USA/Canada and Europe to be very accepting of Islam as if it’s as benign as any other religion. And people (westerners) respect the hijab, oppression of women, and it’s socially acceptable somehow now that they can drink and have sex but not eat pork and call themselves good Muslims. If anything they bash Christianity and Judaism extra hard because that is the status quo and give some kind of social pass to Islam because they are discriminated against in Canada or something? It’s pathetic to be honest with you

You’re just describing abrahamic religions. This thread is honestly concerning. I grew up in the middle east and I hate seeing this much tolerance of Islam because I experienced the worst of it but oh no people think it’s cool and trendy to allow the athan to play t times a day in little fucking Mogadishu now

Fuck any public broadcasting of religion and separate church and state

Yes but are you physically equipped to print that sort of stuff was the question

I couldn’t find anything about this on the Asus Linux blog, am I just dumb and looking in the wrong place? I use Asus-linux and didn’t know about this :(

Edit: unfortunately it seems that bullshitters who make shit up on the spot have made their way over to Lemmy boo me

There’s no winning with you. You argue with the same logic as a trump supporter.
