The incentive for consumer Linux is controlling the app store.

Google leverages its control of the app store to make money on Android. Valve has invested in Linux in order to have an alternate OS in case Windows becomes hostile.

Well, if you don't need programmers to work in place place at the corporate headquarters, you can hire them anywhere.

China's economy was very affected by Covid and the growth of China's economy has been projected to slow as China can't rely on its construction sector to continue to supply growth.

That said, China has been preparing for some form of trade war with the USA for a while, so they probably have something planned for this and can now blame any lack of growth on the USA to its citizens.

Yep. It is fine to call out the four Democrats and get them primaried. It isn't fine to say all Democrats are bad because four Democrats out of the 200+ caucus voted for this.

Exactly. It isn't just the right getting propaganda to support Trump.

But he has money so he is just eccentric.

The problem seems to come from over obsessed mothers, who are probably on the spectrum themselves, trying to explain why their kids are weird in a way that doesn't blame them.

Nah. The Hoover administration wasn't intentionally trying to crash the economy.

 

The Gaza Strip seems very poorly served by the Palestinian Authority, let alone Israel. But, the area has relatively stable borders and it would likely have a stable government in Hamas. So, what if Gaza just declared independence as the government with sole control over the Gaza Strip?

Would Gaza get recognized by other countries? Could it parlay the recognition into forcing a permanent peace with Israel as becoming a recognized country puts Israeli treatment of it into more known sections of international law?
