Just say what you really mean "white people have no culture"

Would it make you feel better if I told you I think Japan, South Korea, and China are at risk of the same?

I'm not worried about which culture, I think any culture that's not exposed to other cultures is putting itself at a disadvantage.

Given the current administration, it might actually be beneficial

>Those billions would happily go to any Developed country

You'll find it's a lot more difficult to immigrate to those other developed countries

The US is very commonly regarded as the hardest country in the world to get a work permit as a foreigner.

I had two to the US, and have had them for three other countries.

Work permits and immigrant visas are not the same thing, though they are overlapping categories.

Agree, and immigrant visas are harder than work permits

The only thing that proves is how badly misinformed and propagandized on the matter the common person is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_to_China

No one has the right to immigrate to another country. If that country has steep requirements, that's its prerogative.

What a revolution in social media

> To not show that Canada is linked by rail with the USA at Detroit is a definite oversight, too.

I don't think that was an oversight.

The issue is the computer not doing what I asked.

I tried to get VLC to open up a PDF and it didn't do as I asked. Should I cry censorship at the VLC devs, or should I accept that all software only does as a user asks insofar as the developers allow it?

ThrowawayTestr · 2025-11-17T15:38:59 1763393939

If VLC refused to open an MP4 because it contained violent imagery I would absolutely cry censorship.

squigz · 2025-11-17T18:40:43 1763404843

And if VLC put in its TOS it won't open an MP4 with violent imagery, crying censorship would be a bit silly.

Must be why they're so itching to get it back

>A lot of messaging services won't implement chat control.

Why not?

Signal already announced they won't add back doors, even if it means they are going to be blocked.

Which is really funny, because the EU commission recommends to their employees to use Signal for texting.

psychoslave · 2025-11-15T06:27:16 1763188036

But MEP will be exempted, so they can continue to use Signal. Rules for thy.

AlgebraFox · 2025-11-15T08:52:25 1763196745

No. Signal will pull out their services from EU. Nobody will be able to download or access Signal.

psychoslave · 2025-11-15T09:25:54 1763198754

Well, unless https://github.com/signalapp becomes inaccessible, I guess that "all you have to do" is run a bunch of new instances of the server by ourself. Not sure how complicated it is though.

andix · 2025-11-15T21:58:19 1763243899

I don't think they will actively "pull" their services. They are based in the US, and don't specifically target EU customers. I guess they just won't comply and might be blocked.
