No, they deep in creating problems for western corporations under guise of coronahoax. China native businesses have no such problems, just yesterday had two meetings with China partners, they have nothing similar to what going with factroies that work for western corporations.
Just check where all that coronahoax shit happens and you will find that it is closely connected with areas that produce something mainly for western brands.
West could not do anything with that without damaging western coronahoax narrative, since if they declare that China uses covid as a cover for their own goals that will immidiately rise the question about western elites did and doing exactly the same with their population.
This looks like win-win strategy of China authorities to damage western corporations and give preference for Chineese ones. Create shortage of iPhones and other shit while selling China shit without any possibility for the West even to complain. If West began to complain, then it will bury itself revealing real goal of coronahoax effectively weakeing western elites. In any case China winning.

Wasn't Chapel Bell experiment deemed to be connected with German misterious Die Glocke project?
I wrote about using that thing against them some time ago but looks like that kind of things are already associated with something inapropriate and only our enemy is allowed to use them.
Interesting observation, but it could mean something different. At any time authorities tries to keep population salaries at the thin margin that is slightly above starvation and poverty to keep people from rioting, but definitely not enough to develop and grow to prevent people from obtaining independence and soverignity.
Gold is not stable as well. A lot of speculating and artificial regulations.
Try kWh of energy, f.e. You always need ~0.1kWh to boil 1 liter of water, and no politician could change that.
We have the worst inflation in American history right now.
IDK, if there exists historical price records for some well-known commodity, say eggs or raw milk, something that produced in the same way for centuries and was not replaced with some synthetic in whole or partially. it will be relatively easy to see what happened really.
I choose commodities and assets over fiat and crypto because they are the most decentralized and independent stores of value.
Better choose commodities and assets that are generators of value. Tools, land, skills and so on. If you buy a can of tinned fish, you will have a can of tinned fish. If you buy a fishing-rod, you will have an ability to get a fish as you need it.
As for crypto - it is just an alternative mean of exchange. For the world without electricity you obviously should choose another mean of excahnge to trade the fish you catch to something you need.
Anything could be mean of exchange. Preferrably, it should be something that all agreed to use as mean of exchange, divisible, relatively small, and have its own use for any owner. But that's ideal, and only first thing is important. If you all agreed that stainless steel nuts are your means of exchange, they could be perfectly used for that, even if they are not very divisible and useful for everybody.
tell me again why a hardware wallet would be immune to government hardware backdoors?
For example, because you are smart and made your hardware wallet from chips that made in another, preferrably rivaling jurisdiction. Since hardware wallet don't need networking to do the job, only USB, even if your PC is backdoored, they can't access hardware wallet internals, all what they will see is just an USB device that generates ready-to-send and absolutely public transaction block after you press a button on hardware wallet if you want to spend some coins. To receive coins you don't need to do anything with wallet at all. Also, chances that your local authorities could use rival implemented backdors is minimal even if your hardware wallet will fall to their hands.
However, I think it is not a very good idea to use hardware wallet. It could broke, seized or be lost. If you by design have no ability to extract private keys from it after wallet initialisation and save them on paper or somehow else, then you will be screwed.
Cryptocurrency does not need internet. It needs peer-to-peer connections. How you will organize that connections in your community where you want to use cryptocurrency is up to you. Anything will be OK, from conventional local network to pigeons.
You need internet only to use already existing crypto worldwide, and even in that case there are some alternatives like ham radio or hijacked satellites. But you could create your own crypto for your community and use whatever media you like.
I am just explaining why I haven't bought any crypto.
Again same fundamental mistake. You don't need to buy crypto. Moreover, you should not buy crypto. Earn it or mine it. Crytpo is not about buying or selling it. Crypto is what is used to buy and sell things and services.
If you live in USA, do you buy USD? Or you get them as salary or payments? So with crypto. Unlike with USD nobody could block your account, prevent you from receiving or spending it and you don't need a bank for transactions, because you are that bank.
Of course, this fist generation crypto (say, beta version, proof of concept) is in no way perfect and can't be a silver bullet. There are a lot of technical problems and caveats in principles and structure. But it works and works amasingly good. I think next generation (real one, with fundamental imrovements, not like those advertised by some swindlers) of independent cryptocurrency will be much more interesting.
There are open hardware/firmware wallets, like Trezor, but I don't see any need for them, unless you are using Windows or iOS.
To be as paranoid as possible:
- Build your own hardware wallet from ground using any cheap SBC that could run Linux and wallet software and have USB device (could become an USB device for PC like flash or BT dongle) capable USB port.
- Print private keys of your addresses with coins on paper, put it into your own safe and destroy disk where wallets with that addresses was stored.
But I still don't get why you need to store crypto. It is not savings, it should be used for payments to or from you.
If you want to really save your money, better get some useful skill lessons or buy useful tools that will always help you to earn whatever you will need.
Question is how to you make a physical token that represents a digital currency.
You print, or write by hand, or emboss on piece of metal or plastic the private key of address containing necessary sum. That's all. Payee add that key to wallet and check that it is valid and have declared sum, than he immidiately could use it or transfer to his main address or just another address with private key known only to him to avoid any payer cheating since while payer know private key too he could use that address to transfer money.
If you would have been RTFM instead of listening shitty economy "experts" and other swindlers, you already would have known that.
If you cannot access the internet, you're boned.
You could exchange transaction blocks with p2p network even on paper. It is not very handy, but is possible.
Any media that allow peer-to-peer connections could be used.
In simple case when you don't have internet access at all, you could easily pay somebody with your private key for the address with necessary amount of coins. Just write that private key on piece of paper and give it to another person. Since that moment that person will be able to use that money if he have internet.
It is amasing, that most interesting features of Bitcoin and other really independent crypto somehow completely unnoticed by most people who like to talk about crypto. They don't even understand what it is, but continously discussing some exchanges, trading, rates to fiat and other crap that have nothing to do with crypto at all.
It is like, IDK, some people discussing market price of fish having no any clue what is fishing, while others just go fishing and have something for lunch or for exchange to neighbour's vegetables he grow, f.e. and absolutely don't care how many senseless pieces of paper could they get for their catch.
it's going down
Who cares about stupid trading games and rate to some shitty fiat?
Cryptocurrency is not an asset or stocks, it is a currency. Its purpose is to allow independent, unstoppable and verifiable mean of exchange.
invest
Cryptocurrency is not an investment. And never was. It is some idiots with severe case of cerebrum trading affection for some reason decide to play their stupid gambling with it.
Cryptocurrency is a mean of exchange, not an asset, stocks, investments, whatever crap that stupid economists invented to milk the herd. It is a special kind of payment system. You don't need to buy or sell crypto. You are Federal Reserve and a bank for yourself in that system. You don't need anything else to sell and by things and services. All that senseless crypto exchanges is not needed at all in the first place. Is it so hard to understand?
until the institutions finnna say no crypto-fags running on our lines
That means total shutdown of internet all over the world. And even in that case p2p network could continue to work via other channels. You could run that network on usb sticks or even on paper. Not even mentioning all that ham radio or hijacked SatCom satellites.
ya aint converting to USD
Who needs that USD? Especially now. What real things US could sell for them? Why exchange currency no senile pedo could seize or prevent transaction to some shit that is hardly could be named currency today? Sold all my USD long ago, keeping only vintage banknote with that "Ten dollars in gold coin". As a reminder that any official currency is a hoax.
No institution is going to grow in the space to facilitate the transactions
Real crypto dudes perfectly know that the basic property of cryptocurrency is that you absolutely don't need any institutions to facilitate the transactions because easiest possible way to do transaction in crypto is doing it from your own node. You can't somehow facilitate it more. And you don't need ANY third-party to use crypto.
So, no, it is not crypto end. It will be perfect if all that shitty and comletely unneeded excahnges will finally bankrupt and disappear. It will be the best day in cryptocurrency world. Great Cleaning from all that dumbfucks who didn't RTFM and thought that cryptocurrency is just another gambling shit like stocks or futures.
Everything is already working, there are several different decentralised p2p "free social media" platforms where nobody could ban or censor you, but most people don't want to use them. "They don't have bells and whistles and is not tied to my phone number, what if I forget my password?". Sheeple.
You could make any perfect platform, but sheeple don't need it. They will gladly sell their asses and souls to BigData for a bunch of bells and wistles and for the absence of need to study how things works.
Got lulz.
The search engine that respects your privacy
Thanks for your visit
Unfortunately we are not yet available in your country.
OK, just same hypocritical bastards as others. Fuck them. Even don't see any reason to add them to my VPN bypass list.
Search engine itself and web interface to search engine are different things. Google use Google web interface to Google search engine. Search engine have special API to do searches, with a lot of settings to adjust results by different parameters like citing, ad payments, relevance to query, frequency of search hits and so on. Playing with that parameters will give you very different search results if you paid for access to search engine directly.
Google making profits playing with settings of their web interface. If you will use Google search engine directly, Google will lose profits, so Google will ask you to pay some price for using Google search engine directly. Simple as that.
Brave search uses Google search engine via paid API to access search results, just like DDG and others. They just use slightly different search settings than Google web interface, so results looks different.
Really there are very few independent search engines with own web crawlers and databases - Google, Yahoo, Bing, Yandex, Baidu. Internet is very large today, and just to store indexed data from every web page and document to allow simpliest search you need a huge datacenters and very thick channels for crawling. Not many companies could afford it. All other use search engines of large companies for some fee to show results in their own web interfaces, but it is still a results from few search engines.
So, if google manages his search engine to remove some info, you will not find it in any "search" that uses Google search engine. Try another one, but I think they are all in one boat about really important things, so you have to be lucky to find something that is not yet censored from search databases by some search provider.
Simply put, Kh-55 and Kh-555 use basically the same rocket, but with a different payload.
Bullshit. :) Kh-55 is basic variant, Kh-555 is Kh-55 with additional features including radar, RF, IR and satellite targeting along with more precise variant of basic inertial targeting system. Warhead compartement is the same, both variants could be fitted with nuclear warhead.
Traditional explosives only variant was named Kh-65 designed for targeting ships, but it appeared only on exibitions and hardly was ever produced.
Do you care who wrote some hand tool manual or microchip datasheet if they are consistent with the object?
Not that simple, I agree, but at least this could be used as a beginning.
As for cutting costs, in worker safety aspect, AFAIK, Chineese now is not that tiny poor people ready to do anything for the rice meal. Their factories are not a Liao basement anymore. They are masters of copying, so they already copied all that western safety trolling and implemented even strictier safety rules. Not everywhere yet, of course, but it is spreading fast.
Product safety is on customer. That's basic rule. If customer don't bother to pay for it, than he wouldn't get it, and they will not judge him or ask additional questions, customer know better what he want. Simple as that.
Environmental thing exists, but they are different that western ones. Nobody care about all that CO2 emissions crap (except if customer very concerned about it, and paid for it), but for spilling some really nasty shit owner and top managers (yes, owners are responsible too) could be heavy fined and even jailed if CCP need to make yet another example of environment care importance.
Of course I have a limited expirience about that things and can't say that all and every Chineese factory follow that tendencies, but I do business directly with Chineese for a relatively long time and that is the changes and tendencies I witnessed by myself and talked about by Chineese themselves. Since Chineese like uniformity and quickly copy what they account (or was told by authorities) as right thing to do, I think it is more or less same all over the China.
You mean military is antiwar while political establisment warmongering full throttle? I think it is possible, despite the common image of military as dumb marching chumps, they could be now the last conscious people with acces to power.
Near 50.4501N 24.0311E you will find village Wyżłów, not Przewodów as widely stated.
And that place is only 50 meters from Poland/Ukraine border.
However, very nice find. And it raises a very interesting questions - why then US covers Russia? Why remnants of Ukrainian S300 projectile declared found? If you selected coordinates to mock one of Russian strike from those on Kiev and Lwov with messed coordinates, then why plant Ukrainian missile wreckage and finally blame Ukraine? If that was a false flag, then false flag for what? :)
Chineese like uniformity. Your colleague is coalescing with surrounding.
