Chroma subsampling is because they don’t have the bandwidth for 4k120@RGB, not because HDMI won’t allow it. The two things aren’t related.

I just use hydrochloric acid.

Americans: “Our FPTP two-party electoral college system doesn’t work. Clearly democracy doesn’t work.”

Meanwhile in Canada we just voted for dental care. Europeans just voted to take on big tech corporations.

I think the problem is years of “it’s not my job to educate you, sweetie”. Turns out it is our job to educate them. Because they vote.

TIL voting is only for “white liberals” apparently.

The hardware was usually based around an ATMEGA328p, which you can just buy. There’s also loads of clones on the internet, some with sexier designs.

Pioarduino is where it’s at anyway.

Arduino the code platform is still open source. So just don’t buy an original Arduino piece of hardware, buy a clone, and don’t pay for any of their subscription services.

Can I see those studies?

I suspect people might not change their minds overtly but might internally, slowly, over time.

It’s way easier to admit you were wrong to yourself in your head than to another human being.

and just in case that doesn’t work

I keep getting ads for crack cocaine. Been a couple months now, every time I log into Facebook, “CRYSTAL CLEAR, 100% PURE” or some shit.

Like what are the drug cops even supposed to do now, arrest Facebook?

The only people laughing are Russia and China. The rest of us are fucking terrified.

You guys ever get the impression nearly everyone on internet message boards is autistic?

And I don’t mean that in a mean way, I mean that literally.

I’m glad people here are onto the attack on our internet.

The person I replied to was saying that the idea that Tiktok was a Chinese propaganda machine was a “vague ‘Sinophobic’ conspiracy theory”, and I’m pointing out how they used ‘sinophobic’ to dismiss a legitimate concern about a state government. Much like people use “anti-semitic”. Or “Russophobic”.

What are you confused about? How did I invalidate my own comment? Please elaborate.

No?

Let’s be real. They’re all working together.

The only time I ever hear the term “sinophobic”, it’s someone using it to hand-wave away criticisms of the Chinese government.

Sort of like “anti-semitic” and criticisms of Israel.

Which one?

Going after people that criticize the leader, banning other parties, ending term limits, propping up businesses that he’s friends with while charging his enemies with “corruption”, and preaching a popular ideology without actually committing to any of its core values.

Because they’re on the same side.
