Xiaomi is very competitive in the consumer electronics and in mobile phones. They are top in sales for mobile phones in many countries. There is an economic war with China that Trump started, and Biden continues.

The ban on Xiaomi is more of an attack as part of the economic war. The supposedly military ties due to a silly award were definitely shoehorned into this.

It looks like it is more about causing pain to Myanmar than actual spying concerns.

Xiaomi, the Chinese consumer electronics company, which definitely does only consumer products, is restricted from buying microchips. The excuse was an award that was granted by the CCP to the chairman of Xiaomi, a type of award that is given away to 100 people EVERY year.

The video was badly prepared. He was talking about datacentre names as if the audience are his own employees and are fully aware of the different buildings. He could at least have some graphics.

We hear such tragic stories but never get the post-mortem of why the account was mistakenly disabled in the first place.

There are some sweet battery-based blowers and trimmers. Less noisy as well.

What?

What?

So much effort into mental gymnastics to put together "green power" and "curse".

Similarly, some have used the phrase that for a small country to have oil is equal to a curse. What they are neglecting to say, is that those countries with oil will not be able to pursue it for the benefit of the people simply because the big countries will squander it. As if they are trying to rationalize the exploitation of the small countries.

The Rockchip SoCs are quite good. Pine64 has several boards, here is one of them, https://www.cnx-software.com/2021/02/16/pine64-unveils-quart...

Either eMMC or M.2 or SSD should be fine.

Population of China: 1400 million

Population of Australia: 25 million

China has 56 times the population of Australia.

Those 16 days times 56 make 896 days, which is far more than 365 days (a year).

It was unfortunate to use that name Linux Lockdown. It was selected before COVID-19 though.

If only there were some really good quality photographs. These are taken with an old mobile phone.

And all cursive writings looks alike from far away.

Better read first this one, https://ag.ny.gov/press-release/2021/attorney-general-james-...

Snap.

Game changing. I hope others follow as well.

So in the process of communicating with the Indian Government to resolve the issues responsibly, they announce on Twitter "We Breached The Indian Government!!!".

What is wrong with them?

The benefit in investigating who exhibited the bad behavior, is to understand how to avoid such toxic circumstances.

There are feuds here and there in scientific fields, and those do not advance science.

Sadly the full text is not freely available. ScienceMag demands $15.

Is Sci-Hub down? Some of the presumably mirrors redirect to ScienceMag instead.

Is there a list of those colleagues that did the ridiculing?

In the seven stages of grief, isn't that Stage 3?

Most likely we will not be affected by this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-M3L_Kykl6w

It was not the largest or most sophisticated attack, ever.

It looks like they are trying to limit their liability by claiming there was nothing at all that they could have done.

Genetic data is €€€.

Weird choice of a title.

Social networks can be weaponized to sow discontent and help you attack a country from within. Once again, war is through the civilians and you bypass the army.

So many wrong things in just the title.

1. We do not use the term statistically significant because it is misleading. But the article does not make even a case for statistics and they use the term as a figure of speech.

2. The premise of the article is that the Outreachy program may not bring diversity to Debian as fast as the author desires, so they postulate tha the CoC does not have an impact. Inconsequential.

I don't think so.

The most obvious message is that flutter becomes first-class citizen in Ubuntu for cross-platform software.

I couldn't find this information. What is the magnification that you get in this way?

With those $15 digital microscopes, you get at least 150X.

We only hear the celebs that got their accounts suspended. Imagine how many others are stuck and have nowhere to talk to.

> “Current estimates are that 80% of American adults have had all of their personally identifiable information stolen by the Communist Party of China,” he said.

And all credibility from the article is now gone.
