Y'all are not gonna like this but I think it's in China's best interests to keep their allies like Russia and Iran fighting for as long as possible rather than joining and help win the war and they definitely recognize this. Non intervention has a big benefit of being to supply people with weapons and materials for a long amount of time. Essentially the same method that US took to become a superpower after WWII

Until their borders and sovereignty are threatened again like the Korean War, they'll never join any war in any real capacity other than trading more and making cash

Omg I'm looking at the pull request for this change right now and there's almost 100 comments on it

Most of it are random software engineers from various ethnicities suggesting better translations for the non-English changes

People were debating exactly what the geographic boundaries/regions are for the which version you would see to decrease the odds of overall public backlash worldwide

Some people were trying to protest the change and citing laws and saying Google shouldn't kowtow to Trump

pretty sure the saddest thing about modern American engineering and tech is that most of it is used for either military weapons of mass death or software tools of unimaginable surveillance and data collection

Pretty sure the first amendment also protects the right to blame everything on the Chinese

haha holy shit this is literally just all my coworkers

The overwhelming sentiment amongst Google office workers is they hated the people who did the sit-in protest

Except it's more like "I bet they were all DEI hires who can't code anyways"

god the comments are pretty accurate though. you either have to choose between cutting ties with imperialist companies and working a poverty job because of it or selling out and living a life without much material hardship

these PSU students have their hearts in the right place

It actually makes perfect sense if they hate Chinese people more than Muslims

Because the concern for Uyghurs is never actually about genuine concern for Muslims

Congress passed a bill that would allow the US to seize 6/300 billion of frozen Russian assets in Europe to give to Ukraine

Apparently Iran spent 35 million yesterday while Israel spent 1.35 billion, not including all the support from US, UK, France, and Jordan ofc

Source is the Resistance News Network Telegram. Communists seem to widely it's a good source

Ofc, USD is somewhat infinite for the US but the important thing here is that Iran can produce these missiles and drones way faster than the West can produce the AA missiles

Not going to go in detail but I've learned I'm too autistic to do like, most organizing work

Anybody else? I just kinda do basic administrative manual labor type shit now

Those people are hopeless tbh

There's a reason why Temu is getting so popular and it's people who can't afford to be act all high and mighty realize it's all the same shit

I've seen obvious blue collar workers hand people their own groceries they just bought on public transit without the other person even asking

I've never seen any of my dozens of tech friends other than the one that's a communist ever give a homeless person any money or buy them any food when asked
