previous reports of Chinese-manufactured GPUs were always deflated by the fact that they didn't support common user-end graphical APIs because they were primarily compute cards data centers

but extremely lmao if they're starting to come out with DirectX and Vulkan-compatible cards

Granted, the big issue for China is still independent fabrication, they can design competitive chips but the issue is literally producing the initial tracing before they can be fabricated.

Anyway as far as the sexpat thing goes, if a 40 year old who has limited options at home can move to a country and get a middle class income with limited effort and date women younger than them… they can probably going to do it.

Always love when US media emphasizes a story about someone rich and famous disappearing in China. Maybe the Uyghur Muslim thing wasn't compelling enough on its own?

Either way, I am really hoping she pops back up in several days or weeks to say she's fine as is usually the case in this situation. It's going to be a cold day in hell when I take any US media framing about China's government seriously.


Also I think we got the timing a little bit wrong about announcing the Olympics boycott, shouldn't we have waited until after this story broke?

Chicago has a pretty high Indian dispoara population. You'd see a bunch of no farmers, no food signs if you drove around in Kent, WA which has a pretty high Punjabi dispoara population. I saw some dudes protesting the Indian government there too.

Oh yeah, I live near a major Hindu temple complex. I just had no real idea what it was all about.

There was some anti modi resolution that got voted down in Chicago City council in the spring after heavy lobbying, too.

To be clear, that's the hulk of a beached ship in the shoal that's being disputed. The AFP has soldiers on it to maintain a presence

Twitter/facebook recently banned sandinistas for allegedly being bots. Their reasoning? These accounts posted a lot early morning, less throughout the day, and barely in the afternoon.

Basically consuming the internet like a normal person.
