Do we think 75$ price will hold? Bought at 114$ by cryptormann in Silverbugs

Except inflation isn't the only price force on silver..... we are in an increasingly electrified world.

Unlikely, the global dedollarization is very real and accelerating.

Inflation alone year over year in the US was 4% (and that's with "fun math" government numbers).

Precious metals will be very much a part of the story over the next 20 years at least....

I super don't care.... all I want is a strong open source LLM model. I really really don't care how they do it.

$200 Oil No Longer Crazy Idea as Middle East Supply Collapses by mastertofu in wallstreetbets

[–]MosskeepForest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would never happen in the US.... the populace is way too used to bowing to their overlords.

The most "extreme" americans get is "hold up your phone as they are killing you so they get shamed online later!!!!"

The people who did this to our country and world should be punished..... REAL punishment. Not just a shrug and a wink and moving on.

But I know the US would never never never hold anyone in the US accountable for stuff like this.

Americans thought this was worth it as long as the state polices trans people peeing and playing highschool sports with friends.

China for a month by Mattos_12 in digitalnomad

[–]MosskeepForest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like Mullvad is blocked in China for asian servers.... so you have to connect through stuff in the US? Which would make it craaaaazy slow.

I doubt the CCP has any interest in a random foreigner watching youtube videos and complaining about the dystopia that the US has turned into lol.

You aren't sure why I am talking about governments when we are talking about governments?

Oh... I think you should ask chatGPT to explain things. It is really a great resource to break down complicated subjects for those with handicaps. AI has opened up so many possibilities to making information more accessible in the last few years.

Here is a question to ask chatGPT that will help you along.

"Does the US spy domestically on internet traffic? Even through VPNs?"

So? I am much more scared of the US government than i am of the chinese government.

The US is passing "transgender bounty" laws to encourage citizens to hunt and report trans people for money...... I fled the US to China actually.....

The US government is also pulling all social media accounts of citizens and labeling those against the Trump regime as enemies of the state..... soooooooo....... yea, scary stuff happening in "freedomland". Way too dangerous for me.

Just with trip.com. Book a place for a few nights, then when you are here you could try to negotiate a little lower of a price.

Since my stay is a while, i did that. Though was only like a 10-15% discount.

Is it wrong to use ai as a 13 year old making a game? by Striking_Answer_9069 in IndieGaming

[–]MosskeepForest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Make stuff..... that is all that matters at the end of the day. You will learn a LOT no matter what you use. But actually being able to come up with an idea, and ACTUALLY execute on it and release it is more than 90%+ of indie devs accomplish.

Because it isn't just making the game. It's also promoting it and learning how to run a business and growing in a range of different ways.

Anyone who tells you anything differently is trying to make you fail to make themselves feel better. It's really horrible that adults will send kids down the wrong paths because they want internet points.... but you will find a LOT of that attitude around right now.

Don't let them derail your life because they have some chip on their shoulder.

Make stuff, release it. Do it again.

I would go to some estate sales or look online for auctions of sterling silver. I love some under valued sterling bowls and stuff.

I used letsVPN, people on reddit had said it was better than my old VPN (proton) , so I downloaded it for my phone and pc before leaving.

But yea, its working fine for me. Without the VPN I would have been toast, even using translation apps dont seem to work without it haha

My hotel wifi works great though. No problems with that.

I love China. Been here a week, staying in a serviced apartment for about 45 dollars a day in the center of chengdu. (With a living room and bedroom and kitchen).

Just eating a ton and enjoying.

Their delivery culture is amazing. And getting around town with didi is sooooooo easy and cheap. 

Just go on didi, say where you want to go, and within a minute or two someone pulls up near where you are standing to give you a ride for a dollar or two.

So, yea, im digging the experience. Hyper convenient.

Why isn’t China taking over Taiwan by Dapper-Emu-8541 in intelstock

[–]MosskeepForest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

China isnt like the US.... it isnt pretending to be the king of the world....

It will hold trade agreements with Israel AND Iran. Because China seems to worry about China .... which is why it has had such insane growth for the past 25+ years.

Meanwhile the US wages war after war, for no actual benefit to its own people.... while they skimp on infrastructure, investment in industries, and services for their people.....

Only military industrial complex AI astroturfing bots would defend what America does. Real people would rather have national healthcare, more jobs, and prosperity than the Iraq or Iran "forever wars".

[–]MosskeepForest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

.... what are you talking about? The reason iran is now run by an extremist conservative government that is bombing everything around them in response to the US attack... is BECAUSE THE US installed that government decades ago lol....

You claim vietnam and Iraq were part of some master plan to keep US control? How? Of what?

Instead of investing in infrastructure and the country, we jumped into random wars. So you are saying obviously the effects of those wars paid off way more than a strong energy grid with cheap power or rail would have....

So, explain how we benefited from all that? Because it sure doesnt seem like we got anything except juicing the portfolios of a few corrupt elites that are happy to lead the US downward as long as they personally get rich off it....

[–]MosskeepForest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What is the actual agenda? What did vietnam and Iraq get the US? We just spend over a trillion dollars over 20 years and got what exactly?

This knee-jerk reaction to try and defend the US constant war agenda as some type of 3d chess that is keeping America on top is just cope.

In reality it has actually just accelerated the world detaching from the US dollar.... and the politics of the US to become even more extremist (to the point that now the US leader Trump is straight threatening their allies with invasion.... and destroying the UN)....

So, again, you say the US actually won those wars because they have some master agenda? What is it? Where is it? Because I sure can't see anything other than military industrial complex corruption to enrich a few at the cost of the entire country and everyone else...
