I'd be genuinely terrified of nuclear retaliation

I've had physical esx servers running this many VMS simultaneously, and I can totally see why a hobbiest or dev would have a need for this many VMs on standby. You are sane, yes

Like fuck. He gave next to zero shits about COVID response unless it was a way of shovelling tax payer money into his and his cronies' hands.

Too bad. Just spent their last 8 billion sending bombs to Israel

I wish articles like this would show the fucking data or link to it. The state of journalism. They deserve to be replaced with AI

Good. Fuck the treats

Incredible they didn't ram any Chinese fishing ships

Just so everyone knows, I was eating this shit 30 years ago before it was cool.

Does it retain the humour of the 2nd and 3rd entries?

 

It comes in an sorts of varieties, from sweet, to fairly bland, but it's so much better than what I'm used to in the UK. Normally I'd never drink the stuff straight, but here it is a different thing altogether, and I'm actually picking it over beer some of the time.

It goes great with youtiao (油条), which is a sort of light fried batter stick that you dunk in a bowl of soy milk, sweetened to your taste.

Anyway, just thought I'd enlighten anyone who didn't already know.

 

There was some sort of anime themed dance off in the mall and the participants were all drawing on this massive fabric wall. Was very happy to see this.

The Chinese youth are alright.

I apparently have £400 of Google ad credits. What would be a fun advert to run?

Edit: beanis?

 

Anyone else have the issue when using jerboa that when they try to change input language (by holding the space button) the selection menu just flashes up and then disappears?

Somewhat annoying.

 

It was all over the place in Chongqing, but then I entered a Bei Bing Yang desert and was without for weeks. I'm now in Xingyi and I've finally found it again. Very refreshing, fizzy orange drink with orange bits in. Lovely.

 
 

Regardless, I waltzed into a China mobile shop and not only did they just give me sim card, they even let me pick my phone number. Sadly there were none with 1701 in, which would have been awesome.

The lies I've heard about this country are just stacked one atop another. Next step is to open a Chinese bank account because apparently I'm not allowed to do that either.

 

Throughout my travels I've been taking pictures of my friends sleeping and editing them using the WhatsApp pencil to create a comic strip. This has worked really well, and I even made a stylus out a pen, a cue tip and some foil. However I feel I've reached the limit of what the WhatsApp pencil can offer me. Can anyone recommend a simple doodling app that will let me import a photo and then draw over it. Ideally I'd want the ability to have layers and and to cut and paste. Obviously an assortment of brushes would be fun too.

I have the app sketchbook, but it's a little too advanced for my needs and frustratingly also lacks some very simple features (such as deleting/copying selections).

Thank you comrades.

 

I'm seeing some real time, grade-A consent manufacturing regarding this massive crowdstrike outage. Every article I see blames Microsoft. I have no love for Microsoft, but they were not to blame. The people who are too blame are crowdstrike, the software company who deployed the broken update that caused the outage.

* Puts on immaculately thought out tinfoil hat *

Crowdstrike is more a piece of US surveillance tech than it is an actual security suite. In essence it can take any data from a device it is installed on and can execute any command on those devices (due to the way the software very tightly integrated with the windows operating system, bypassing security on the OS). A powerful tool when you consider that the US government can subpoena any us corporation to hand over the information they hold.

Now, crowdstrike had a huge market share, but you can bet that after this event people are going to be less willing to use it, and this will result in the US losing a huge part of its surveillance network. People don't care what security suite they use, so long as it works, so people are going to switch.

Cue the absolute deluge of articles I've been seeing blaming this on Microsoft. An operating system so ingrained into the business world that no-one is going to switch to an alternative, no matter how much they fuck up. They can take the heat and mitigate the damage to crowdstrike. Thus preserving the US state surveillance appetatus.

Specifically I'm unable to change my keyboard input language when in the app, emojis don't always work, and there is no way to use hexbear emojis in app.

If there is an app or there that solves these issues I'm all for it
