Like Starcraft came out right around the time there was the asian financial collapse and you had educated people playing this weird US game with no localization in PC cafes. Seriously, I'm curious too because I would loving prefer kids being into Tekken or StarCraft than the god awful carrom board culture that every kid is playing in every street corner in Nepal.

none of that is exactly right but if I told you how to do it exactly right you'd be further away than saying that when you tried it, like "the SH sound but keep your teeth together with the vowel, lips wide do not make the lips into an O shape" or whatever the gently caress X is in mandarin

lollontee i think youre not grasping that the reason people defended you against the probation was because youd mostly stopped being annoying by that point if you start being annoying again as soon as you get back youre kind of implying that it was a good idea to probate you

If pending US efforts on renewable energy are extraordinary, the revolution under way in China is truly staggering. Last year the US boasted that it was on track to deploy about 30 gigawatts of new renewables. In China, the figure could be as hight as 180 gigawatts. Last year China alone accounted for 46 per cent of the world’s new construction of renewable energy infrastructure. quote:“There are no climate deniers in China, or at least no climate deniers who are allowed to have a voice,” McGregor says. “You can tell that very easily because China’s official media is not full of people denying climate change. The Propaganda Ministry doesn’t allow voices which question science.”

youve all probably (not) dropped the subject and moved on but i'll just drop it anyway cause 10 pages ago you were discussing a 2nd/3rd hand witness account told once by a supposed on site witness to the Tiananmen Square EVENT. It'll add nothing to anything but I just wanna say it so whatever when i was 14 or 15, so about 15-16 years ago, I had to tag along to a dinner with my mothers friends and their families and at one point China became a subject(probably because of something cool and good that was twisted into evil communism doings) and it turned out one of them had been in Beijing at the time. Her account of events was that they had been told they should probably stay at the hotel after dark(not just this night but the week leading up to it) and that the night seemed fairly uneventful except for a bunch of fireworks, she said shrugging as if it mightve actually been gunshots but they had thought nothing of it at the time, it wasnt until the next few days where it was told to them, through western media and other westerners, that there had been a massacre, that they thought anything of that night in particular. At the dinner this wasn't discussed as if the massacre didnt happen, but recalling it I think she kind of doubted that it happened as told by media but didn't want to bring on any scorn by saying she didn't believe it, i seem to recall her trying to drop the subject and move on, not because of trauma or anything but she did seem uncomfortable talking about it. I'd ask her but I havn't seen her for 3-4 years at this point.
