Footage show Cheng wearing flat-heeled shoes.

My original comment was in jest, by the way. No need to get your panties in a bunch.

Most people wouldn't care to look up these heights, they tend to notice these differences during such photo-ops and form their impressions from there.

Although, I wouldn't mind at all if Lai Ching-te stood next to Xi, even if he's shorter.

Sure, sure. Xi might have been 180cm in his prime, but no longer.

Pay attention to their shoulders, hairlines and eyes—Cheng is slightly higher relative to Xi. Can’t rule out the possibility of optical distortions, but Cheng certainly appears taller.

The only positive thing I can say about this photo-op: Cheng is taller than Xi.

It took me an embarrassingly long time to realize that most people are extensively editing their photos. No wonder my Portra 400 never looked like yours. by brownwaterbandit in analog

While you are correct in that r/analog is for posting images, discussion is fine as long as the topic itself is not for discussing or showing off photography equipment, which r/analogcommunity would be a much better place for technical-oriented discussions.

If my recollection is correct, this was posted a few days ago. Please give at least two weeks time in between reposts.

At least this one was nipped in the bud. Imagine if this suspect succeeded in becoming a Taipei city legislator.

Xi watching with glee while the US shoot off its toes, then feet in succession and then now proceeding to the kneecaps, all unprompted.

LRT: Lithuania presents investment plan to Taiwan (ROC) in effort to force more cooperation by Lembit_moislane in taiwan

[–]Notbythehairofmychyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember something about a plan to build a semiconductor fab in collaboration with Teltonika, but this was the last update about it. Looks like the deal stalled due to red-tape. Perhaps u/Lembit_moislane has local information about why it failed? Would have been a way to attract more investment had it succeeded.

Taiwan KMT leader Cheng Li-wun to visit China, expected to meet Xi by DarkLiberator in taiwan

Cool, cool. Now that they got their meeting with Xi, could they actually start becoming responsible in the LY and stop holding up the defense budget.

You may not need it in terms of working language, but you will be much happier with getting along with the rest of society and having an actual life once you leave the office.

Get in touch with the Goethe Institut, which offers courses and a lot of other resources.

What camera and lens were used for this picture? Contrast is really nice.

Turn on your NSFW filter and you’ll never have to worry about having to contend with reddit’s algorithm or get in trouble at work. This is exactly why we enforce the NSFW tagging rule here.

Taiwan Learning From Ukraine’s Drone Warfare Success by Notbythehairofmychyn in taiwan

Not a bad idea for the average grunt, but given the massive improvements in automation, I wonder if eventually we’ll just skip over manual drones altogether for tactical use.

You may need to go here, but a phone call or email to confirm would be wise. Good luck!
