there're also some good spy films at that time, but these are not as cool as thrillers such as The Thing and Invasion of the Body Snatchers
unfortunately or fortunately, there hasn't been such brilliant films since the end of the Cold War(I like The Facult, but it is not that good)
fortunately or unfortunately, I believe that such brilliant films are about to make a comeback
- the worst democracy is better than the best dictatorship (we are not the worst, others could be worse)
- the system is good and perfect, it's just a few bad actors ruining it (we can fix it as long as we fix these certain bad actors)
That's the gentler way to strike.
As members of the working class, we technically have the freedom to choose which employer we sell our labor to - but we are forced to sell our labor an employer to survive
So, in reality, it's hard
It's like saying, "But maybe just don’t get sick if you can’t afford medical treatment"
I call this kind of nonsense that can be seen through at a glance an 'relatively honest lie'
those lines you quoted are nonsense that can be totally ignored without misunderstanding his point, those lines are like something as "get schwifty"

It's very concerning, especially with the Spain and Portugal blackout being so recent
in fact i think it's a very good mindset as it helps avoid further escalation of the war
> India has the money to replace any losses and buy more from any supplier in the world (we also have a homegrown defense industry). The Pakistanis are stuck with the export version duds that the Chinese supply them.
Agree, India has the money to buy 6 more Rafales, however, I believe the J10CE might offer better cost-performance and could be worth considering
anyway, thank you very much for the explanation, i'll bookmark the title to learn the style well

why is it a dark factory? power shortage?

thank you, Abhi
i guess they were "protect"ing their users

Additionally, I have always been curious to know whether the U.S. export ban applies to Linux and any other open source projects
If your company or school has more than three Party members, you’re required (perhaps secretly) to set up a Party branch. So, in theory, the vast majority of US universities that admit students from Chinese institutions have an internal branch of the CCP
hope everyone can sleep soundly :)

There is some hope that they'll revolt against Trump if things get bad enough, the way there's some hope for democracy in China, I suppose. But at the same time, I don't know that China's aggressive response is going to politically move things in that direction, because it's so easy for the nationalists to rally around the flag - regardless of the economic pain they're experiencing. China itself knows this and leverages it with its own nationalists. And this response is going to cost China dearly."
