It’s supposedly a reverse-engineered copy of the Russian Su-33, which is gorgeous itself, if a bit dated.
Yes it is and dictatorships can’t even jump that.
Able to hand power over without bloody civil wars.
1·6 days agoTencent would never allow it.
The US has a sale-or-ban order in force right now, it is not up to Tencent, but the Taco King right now.
Besides it’s software, that has no subsidiaries.
You must mean assets. I’m talking about the legal entity, that’s what subsidiary means, a local US sub-company owned by the Chinese parent company. US Tiktok operations are owned by the local US subsidiary Tiktok Inc, incorporated in California, owned by Bytedance. That ownership relation is entirely regulated by US law.
In this case there is nothing to steal.
$10 billion in US revenue, the market share and the cultural, societal and political impact of the platform is there for the taking.
You can do so to the local subsidiary
Tiktok?
Hitler fucked over his magnate hypercapitalist backer when the guy started to think he had control.
He spent the rest of his life sulking in irrelevance in his mansion even after the war.

Russia has seemingly broken itself by the war economy drive to the point hey are incapable of stopping the war on any terms, as it would immediately collapse the country.
If Ukraine were to capitulate, another war would immediately start, likely in Moldova, then the Baltics, then…
There is simply no peace until Russia reforms economically, societally and governmentally.
I think the Russians have enough depth near Melitopol that the bridge itself, despite being important is not the absolutely critical supply line it once was.
It is a symbol of Russia’s efforts of integrating occupied Crimea though, that makes it a more important target.
Underwater shockwaves are no joke. The bridge is still standing though, wonder how long.
Let people be, I don’t like the phenomenon of influencers either, but on the one hand if they can grift advertising money from megacorps, good for them, and if you don’t consume toxic social media, you won’t ever meet them.
I for one, haven’t seen an influencer post in my life.
I guess “computer janitor” = moderator, and the person above you does not like world mods.
On that we agree. It’s more that capitalists are traitors to society.
It’s not like Putin is fighting against capitalism, him being one of the biggest capitalists of the world.
Nothing changed in Poland, the last president was a dirtbag too.
Slovakia is what it is, but Fico can usually be reasoned with.
Hungary is going to oust its government in less than a year.
Terms of Service aren’t laws. Breaking them is not illegal. It’s like using the waterslide while sitting and not lying on your back. In fact, it’s explicitly legal to use an adblocker and control what happens on your device in both the EU and the US. There are ongoing debates whether the surveillance required for blocking adblockers is legal in the EU.
Google does break laws all the time by the way, and is holding a monopoly. If people had to pay for Youtube, alternatives would spring up overnight, but since you can still watch Youtube free, they can’t.
Also, I’d be the happiest person if Google finally figured out how to block people with adblockers completely, so that the majority of people would wean themselves off of one of the world’s biggest disinfo peddlers.
