The issue ia clear and simple, it has to be a state initiative, and would eat heavily into the market share of current big players of the sector, and those players either have nothing to gain, assuming they tried to give their app actually good uses as wechat has, or they would distort it so badly that it would not change things meaningfully, it wouldn't be similar to wechat. So meta and company will fight against it because social gain is not on their radar, but the US state has some interest in it because it might be one good tool to try to claw out of current and looming crises. But the issue is that they are in a somewhat soft position to bargain for it because they lean heavily on the big techs for propaganda, which is of essential value to the US government. TLDR capitalism is a mess, the state is less and less capable of keeping the bare minimum of social support to its people given the insatiable hunger for profit of the private sector

Yeah, it kinda looks like the US is also trying some moves of throwing its weight around in Africa, both economically and militarily, but again with limited success

Yeah, India Thailand, Philippines and Indonesia are some of the back up plans, but the level of technology of China's industrial sector, is decades ahead of any country US included, so they are kinda out of luck trying to replace it in the short term, capitalism own near sightedness is being the key for it's downfall

They made their bed now lay on it.

People here will confirm, I suspected that for a long time. And that's probably the most powerful deterrence China have, if you start long war you are cut off from those resources rendering you powerless to win, if you try to win doing massive inter continental damage, well you likely destroyed your own supply chain as well, so China kinda became unreplacable to the world.

What does tailist mean?

That could be, no brand is 100% reliable, could be a model, or a more systemic issue, either way, better keep away if you are unsure.

Most any of them will work fine, for more information check here. So it's more a matter of budget, I'd focus on size, just making sure it's from a reliable brand(Kingston, adata, western digital, Samsung, I'm sure im forgetting some others) and that it has a DRAM controller(which should be the vast majority of them just keep on the lookout for ones that seem too cheap for their size). I'd only focus on speed if you deal on moving large files, such as movies or high res images or renders with some regularity. Otherwise for gaming I'd say size is the priority.
