I think the problem is that you can’t create virtual, domain separated, phone numbers on demand

I think most legitimate businesses have moved away from phone calls for exactly this reason. In lots of countries they use whatsapp

it's actually interesting that they're not being forbidden to use claude/codex, is Meta paying for it or is it personal accounts?

I don't think they value displaying nationalism more, nationalists tend to be very vocal and visible, it's just that the US is full of nationalists. It really is the biggest issue with the US, and why the orange man is president.

If the current events don't make you think it's not nationalism, then I'm wondering what nationalism even is

The US is weird about its flag, I think because nationalism wasn't seen as a bad thing up until recently. These days it's much weirder to see an American flag, and usually you know it has something to do with MAGAs. The weird thing to me is how you see one massive one in the luggage retrieval area when you arrive in JFK (in New York). Always makes me sigh

I heard that when some country wants to pay in a different currency than USD for oil, a coup suddenly happens, or a helicopter comes and the president gets kidnapped

EVs, mobile phones, are two massive industries where Chinese competitors are not only way ahead, but also basically banned.

I can't read this seriously while being unable to buy any Chinese EVs here in the US.

I've owned a bunch of gopros and I feel like they've always had the same kind of bugs. Random crashes, things not working anymore. It's really bad, so bad that I had plenty of videos that were missing sound, or just corruption in general.

Then they started this subscription thing and I was like, finally, they're going the SaaS way, they will make so much money, and they will be able to improve that camera that basically never seems to improve much version after version. I bought a bunch of put options, and I lost all my money, every time I put back some in the put options.

Now I have the insta360 go ultra and... I think go pro is going to die. It's just so good.
