cw: animal productsOn the same topic, do you have any suggestions for butter substitutes? I like both the flavor and the fat content, and I don't know what kind of oil would be a good substitute.

China is doing cool things with 5G networks and drone technology. Respectively, remote surgery and pesticide deployment are the two uses I can recall, but there are many other useful implementations as well.

In an actual war this would just get an ICBM dropped on it right?

if time travelers kidnapped a few thousand scientists, engineers, and so forth from the present and took them back thousands of years and dropped them naked in the post-glacial northern european steppes, the children and grandchildren of the very few who survived would quickly reinvent cave painting as the single best means of improving their productive capacity in the material conditions they find themselves. they certainly aren't building a chip manufacturing plant to start making computers.

This is just anti-intellectualism. Making shitty jokes about how modern people wouldn't be able to survive if they were dropped naked in the wild is some boomer level posting.

I think some of the disagreement about moderation of Luigi's Mansion comes from people missing the boat on his actual politics. He was not just a wacky musk stan, here is one of the guys I saw listed in connection with him: https://substack.com/@picopaco/notes note the hits such as "Racial Group Differences are primarily genetic in origin" and "The Great Palestine Lie". I saw a few other nazi adjacent people on his substack and twitter, but I cant find it anymore, same goes for the thing where luigi actually follows this guy. If anyone has the actual post, I would appreciate a link to it!

I would be more sympathetic to trying to claim him if he was just talking about how AI is going to do whatever stuff tech bros are talking about now, and I would assume most people trying to claim him are thinking he was in this group.
