@JoeQuinlan @aljazeera you mean the PRC will become a democracy? We can all dream.

@JoeQuinlan @aljazeera And so you're rooting for Chinese capitalist oligarchs who greedily pursue an imperialist foreign policy in Asia (and Africa, and anywhere else if they could). Why? The Taiwanese overwhelmingly do not want to "reunite" with the PRC dictatorship, not peacefully, not by force.

@JoeQuinlan @aljazeera as to Europe: I live there. I'll hands down take US influence rather than the Russian alternative.

@JoeQuinlan @aljazeera They don't have naval bases abroad because they can't and not many countries are so desperate as to let them, not because they wouldn't like to. They claim Taiwan and most of the South China Sea for themselves, ignoring international law. You think the Chinese are somehow immune from thirsting for power? You believe if the Chinese were in the US' position as the world's top military they wouldn't abuse their power? Just see how they treat their neighbours.

@JoeQuinlan @aljazeera As to capitalism: China's is just as turbocharged as the US', with fewer (read no) environmental laws and a workforce treated as little more than slaves (and actual slavery). China's GINI index is 38.5, not much better than the US. If you are looking up to China as a model to follow, you are sadly misguided. Disclaimer: I lived in China for longer than I would have liked to.

@anderspuck It's because, in Elon-ese, "escalation" means "Ukraine successfully defending itself". We have many so-called pacifists here in Italy who speak the same language.

@CliffWade I suspect I had COVID once. Very weird COVID-like symptoms, but tests came back negative.

@EU_Commission@europa.eu @userwalter It is definitely realistic to own a repairable phone. iFixit offers a Repairability Score: https://www.ifixit.com/smartphone-repairabilityNext time you need a new phone (hopefully in many many years), just choose a new one with a high repairability score.I personally cannot recommend https://www.fairphone.com/ enough.

@EU_Commission Not fiction, but Lisa Feldman Barrett's *How Emotions Are Made: The Secret Life of the Brain* gave me enormously useful insight on self and society.

@quinta Io ho trovato il pezzo interessante al di là del catastrofismo. La democrazia è già provata dalle fake news prodotte dagli umani. Un algoritmo in grado di produrre foto (e video) verosimili oltre che testi propagandistici convincenti 24/7 sarebbe difficile da contrastare tramite debunker tradizionali, una versione tecnologica del gish gallop.

@quinta Vallo a dire ai milioni che si informano su Facebook e Twitter, oltre ai media nostrani che un giorno sì e l'altro pure per pigrizia o per malizia diffondono notizie false.

@quinta Il fatto che non ci si possa fidare di nulla (e il conseguente nichilismo politico) è esattamente lo scopo della propaganda. La differenza (come sempre quando si tratta di tecnologia) è quantitativa, non tanto qualitativa.

@quinta Certo. Ma non tutti fanno così. Anzi è solo una minoranza. E si definisca "autorevole". C'è chi considera Trump autorevole, il Cremlino.Manca educazione al pensiero critico, ma dubito che questa sarà mai diffusa oltre le élite intellettuali che possono permettersi anni di formazione terziaria (e anche qui ci sarebbe tanto da dire).Intanto miliardi di persone approcciano le informazioni trovate su internet in maniera ingenua e rimangono facile preda dalla disinformazione.

@lealternative Non capisco la vostra obiezione sullo spazio disponibile. I dati sul cloud comunque occupano spazio e gli HDD oggi sono estremamente economici.E in secondo luogo, Syncthing non è una soluzione di backup: https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing/issues/5060
