GATES FOUNDATION posted:I never thought the inflection point where the PRC overtakes the US would happen so quickly but inside a matter of months the trajectories of the two countries has sharply reversed themselves. The entire western pundit class called this China's chernobyl moment in January, now it's increasing looking like this is the West's 1991 moment. extremely what's happening and I guess we can only hope that the USA fares better

also I wonder if the higher number of Black victims of covid is because fewer Black workers are able to retire compared to white people their age

Anyway I'm told that saves us a few pennies on the dollar and creates more profits for our management/creative/capital classes so who's to say otherwise?

Slippery Nipple posted:almost as if tech can't actually solve humanity's challenges Tech can solve things. Its the willingness to do so that fucks it up. We could solve world hunger loving decades ago by moving excess food to areas with none. But no one with that money wants to do so as it wouldn't get them power, profits, recognition, or any combo of these. We could have stopped or halted Covid, but those with the power were more interested in dumping their stocks or covering it up lest it damage the name of China. gently caress, it was an Iranian plane company that spread it to most of the EU and US, all in the name of profit over willingness of others protection.

windows 10 will run forever without activation, you just get a little 'Please activate' overlay on your desktop and you can't go into control panel and change your desktop wallpaper. You can, however, right-click on any image and select Set As Wallpaper. gg MS Don't ask me about os/2 warp though.
