  • Great tool to radicalize people, though as marxists we shouldn't define ourselves by our direct contribution to the almighty GDP.

    Some jobs don't produce a form of wealth or labour you can extract, all while still contributing to a prosperous society.

    German warship accidentally shoots US drone... but both missiles miss the target
  • Such news is only leaked because it creates public sentiment for more public spending towards war. All of you are revelling in the "Haha, those krauts guns don't work" and miss the bigger picture as to why this is reported in a major publication.

    that's how it works, right?
  • If you don't enjoy doing your hobby unless you're producing something of substance that can help you receive praise from others. Is it really a hobby you do for the sake of personal enjoyment and growth or just something you think society views as a worthwhile past time you've latched onto just to get validation?

    Why is the EU silent on South Africa's genocide case against Israel?
  • Most of these countries pretend that they were the ones that helped the South Africans fight against apartheid from behind the scenes. These same countries also adhere to the opinion that Israel isn't an apartheid state. So are we really surprised that they defend the genocide that is going on?

    Best TTS engine for listening to books on Android?
  • WeChat reader 微信读书, only issue is that if you upload a book they will read everything. So get used to suddenly a page number being read out loud.

    Maybe you could get a paid version of ChatGPT and remove all numbers and annotations.

    Do most people in China identify as communist?
  • In China, most people equate being a communist with being a party member. Being communist isn't just some kind of label you associate yourself with, like in the West. I know from first-hand experience, because telling people I'm a socialist/communist in China prompts them to ask me whether I'm a party member. The average communist in the West can't hold a candle against the dedication and sacrifice of cadres in China. Heck, even people that aren't communists are often enrolled into semester long programs that require them to listen to socialist thought every weekday for 2 hours a day, all because their work requires it (due to receiving government funds, or working on projects that directly influence the wellbeing of others -> i.e. creating a private-sector web platform that harvests user data, which it can only use for the good of society).

    Thanks for the tip though

    Going by their pricing model I'd have to pay $330 at mininum going by my listening habits... What the.

    $22 a month for 2 hours. That's crazy! It'd be cheaper for me to hire an actual person with these prices. I was thinking of like $10 a book. They're asking at least ten-fold...

  • Wish I could use this technology for myself to listen to non-fiction books. Even if it costs $10 I'd still feel it'd be worth it.
