Carney government eyes privatizing airports to attract investment. Is there one example where privatizing a public asset has turned out to be beneficial for Canadians as a whole? Between Petro-Canada, Air Canada, Highway 407, Hydro One, all I see are regrets.https://www.thestar.com/politics/carney-government-eyes-privatizing-airports-to-attract-investment-cut-travel-costs/article_63fe1465-083c-477e-952d-e5da5a67ab95.html#canada #cdnpoli #news

Chinese companies cannot legally fire employees simply to replace them with cost-saving artificial intelligence, courts in the country have ruled, setting a significant precedent for labor rights as automation sweeps the tech sector. 👏 Another day, another common China W.https://www.caixinglobal.com/2026-04-30/chinese-courts-rule-companies-cannot-fire-workers-simply-to-replace-them-with-ai-102439602.html#china #technology #ai

As the U.S.’s credibility and military capacity are tested abroad, China has gained leverage by staying out of the fight and learning from it.Also, kind of hilarious to frame it as China relying on the US occupation of the region and then in the next sentence admit that it’s actually the US that’s the cause of the problems in the region.https://www.newyorker.com/news/the-lede/how-the-iran-war-is-shifting-power-toward-china#usa #china #geopolitics #iranwar

The US has suffered its sharpest reputational decline in Malaysia since the onset of the Palestine crisis, according to a new Ipsos survey tracking global attitudes toward the US-Iran conflict.Only 34% of Malaysians now view the US as having an overall positive influence on world affairs over the next decade.By contrast, China’s positive influence rating stands at 83% in Malaysia which is the highest of any country surveyed and up 7% from 2025.https://www.malaymail.com/news/malaysia/2026/05/08/us-reputation-in-malaysia-hits-record-low-as-china-surges-ipsos-survey-finds/219156#news #geopolitics

In today's issue of China Daily, the focus is on the meeting between the leaders of China and Tajikistan. America was given a modest column on the side. 😆 #china #usa #geopolitics

@julsboo people of Tibet were literally enslaved until China liberated them, and standard of living in Xinjiang continues to rise just like everywhere else in China.Absolutely hilarious how fascist chads from Europe would bray about eradicating populations while their regimes are actively participating in a literal genocide in Gaza.Go spread your propaganda elsewhere fascist sack of shit.

Every year, 62 million tons of e-waste are dumped, much from hardware Microsoft stopped supporting. Windows 11 requires TPM 2.0 and modern CPUs, so perfectly good 2014-2019 machines are now 'obsolete'.Linux uses far less RAM with Ubuntu+Xfce needing 650MB vs Windows 11 at 3-4GB. Three lightweight Linux releases in 2026 show that Linux ecosystem will work just fine on your old hardware.https://www.fosslinux.com/158206/linux-on-older-hardware-revival-guide.htm#linux #technology
