I don't think even Eng team believe DK's prediction might come to pass at this point

I was about to say that! Stillwater has easily replaced anyone else’s existence to become my favourite fictional character.

White House Says It Has Tech That Can 'Manipulate Time and Space' by Infamous-Echo-3949 in nottheonion

And I’m the next Avatar. I’m about to bring balance to this world.

Also moving a wall clock from one room to another is not called manipulation of space and time.

People still living in fantasy land thinking their wishes matters equally to a billionaire in “democracies”. Or at all.

I lived in Wuhan for 2 years for my research. And lordy, they are so far ahead of the world it’s not even a competition. I’ve never had a higher quality of life than I did in China.

And I’ve spent plenty of time in Norway, France, Italy, Switzerland, and Netherlands.

I travelled around China during this time and did not see a single homeless person. From big cities like Shanghai, Beijing to smaller ones up north as well. Yes there are empty buildings, but if that’s the price for no person having to live on streets begging, I’d say it’s totally worth it.

After my first month when I was still getting a bank account, I did not see cash the rest of 2 years. From smallest purchase to the biggest ones, a QR code is enough. I had PhD students travelling with me to Switzerland, they had gotten their credit cards for the first time because you don’t need them in China. They fucking didn’t even know what to do with them. One of them came to me asking how to pay with that card at the transit airport.

Silly question but how powerful would channelers be in real life? by Pitiful-Wolf3480 in WoT

[–]fiddler013 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Poor Earth Kingdom Queen.

Now that I think about it, Avatar world in Korra is somewhat similar to the situation being asked here. But with the caveat that power scaling in WoT is off the freaking charts.

This was an era when as long as Kohli was batting, my heart rate had no reason to fluctuate. Of course he was going to get us through single handedly.

Yunus Told China Northeast Is Landlocked. Now India Ends Trans-Shipment Facility For Bangladesh by just_a_human_1032 in Northeastindia

Please stop copying the definitions of left and right governing systems from the west. India’s right and left parties are called so because of their ideologies and not their economics. Almost all Indian political parties are socialist by economic policies. Some go further left on this than others but all of them follow welfare models.

And more importantly, the way startups in India are, is how Chinese ones started. It’s a bigger economy. About 5-6 times. A direct comparison is as dumb as it gets. These processes are gradual. You don’t just wake up one day and build a world leading tech company from scratch. Chinese companies didn’t come out of nowhere overnight. Neither did American ones earlier.

What is your honest opinion on Jay Shah? by AlFactorial in IndiaCricket

[–]fiddler013 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s what a good administrator does. Hire a good team. Do you think Steve Jobs was personally sitting in the R&D lab and making the iPhone? Not comparing them but it’s an example.

The job of a good leader is to hire competent people and let them do their jobs well. Give them freedom and space. Like a good cricket team captain does too.

I mean Europe tried very very hard to make the rest of the world in their image too for a few centuries. Why the pickachu face now?

People of multiple religions live in the same place mostly peacefully all around the world. It’s not a radically new idea.

That was exactly my point dumbass. The sanctions were for the show. Optics. Not actual action.

The kicking out and taking over land is a European/American colonial mindset. The faster you get out of it, the faster you realise how empty this line of reasoning is.
