Chinese students in US tell of ‘chilling’ interrogations and deportations
  • I like how the summary conveniently avoid mentioning the fact that in the year 2023 30000 visa were given to chinese students. Its quite sad how most people dont bother reading the article. As per the article: "The number of people affected is a tiny fraction of the total number of Chinese students in the US. The State Department issued nearly 300,000 visas to Chinese students in the year to September 2023. But the personal accounts speak to a broader concern that people-to-people exchanges between the world’s two biggest economies and scientific leaders are straining."

    Zelenskyy straight-up said Ukraine is going to lose if Congress doesn't send more aid
  • This is just sad to hear and i don't think arguing on the internet is gonna bring is anywhere. I don't understand where your US fantasy and obsession comes from, siting cases that are from the 50' and not really related to your point. It sounds like desperate fearmongering by an authoritarian state to stay relevant in front of its population. Ironically, the aggressive actions of russia is what push EU countries away closer to the US as it doesnt leave us any other choice. Russia was a major trading partner and vital to european economies. Ukraine biggest allies after all are from eastern europe(ex russian colonies), the evil imperialist that wants to destroy russia doesnt seem that interested in the conflict as this thread is about. You can it how you want and replace revenge with justice but committing atrocities on your neighbor, is not a productive way for justice. Just shows some imperialistic bloodlust eastern european countries are wary off. Please dont forget that eastern europe are also people with their own minds and that the only thing we want is peace we would love to be closer to russia but its not the path your leaders are willing to go to. Instead creating divisions with whatever usa narrative they are pushing. Have a conflict with the us if thats what you want but please let us be and dont involve us in that.

    I will mention gaza as it is so often used as an argument, but the evil controlled press puppet of the CIA is actually quite outraged by the actions of israel, followed by its population having more and more Europeans government taking an in increasingly harder stance, politics are slow but have to follow the heart of the population at some point. Dont forget that russians are the dominant ethnic group in israel since you love talking about historical points. We have our hands quite full with our issues here but seems like people cant stop to ask for our intervention abroad. I would like to remind that eu countries never vetoed anything, rather abstained and stayed out of the conflict as the world has shown us with ukraine that they dont want to intervene in foreign conflict.

    Just a point i find facinating, Its quite cute how you describe rusky mir, just think for a second how do you think a average german citizen would have described lebensraum in their times? Try to mature the world is not as black and white as you wish it was. I would like to remind you that the russian leaders called ukraine as a non state that should be eradicated, which i find quite at odd with your 'pacific description'

  • I don't think we would get anywhere by constantly looking at the past and never try to go forward. The concept of revenge and resentment can only bring further damage. Europeans know this all too well and moved away from this and created their stable european union that the spread indicate this success. European powers, russia, china or any other country for that matters have committed countless atrocities in their past and what matters is if they can accept their past and try to make a better world learning from their mistakes.

    Unfortunately and scarily, Russia is showing much of the same pattern as Germany in its most dark past, with the ruski mir looking more and more like the german lebensraum. The fact that all of russia's puppet state demanded to join NATO (BTW: you cannot be invited it only works by writing an official demand to join and approval by all member state), is a revealing fact. As we saw in Ukraine, Russia does not need any reason to invade a sovereign nation (their reason for invading looking also stangely like german justification for poland invasion), thus why EU state are very wary of their neighbour warmongering. The countless horrors of torture, rape, murder and brainwashing by the russian state, seems to prove their reasoning right.

    As for Taiwan, talking to Taiwanese they consider themselves as a proper state, but do not declare it officialy because the Chinese state made it very clear that it would indicate immediate war.

    I do not claim that the west is perfect, with the actions of the united states and other in recent times, but claiming that russia or china have clean hands would be outright hypocritical. Thanks to the free press, the western world made their population aware of this wrong actions and helped steer them in the right direction.

  • Hi scientist here, I actually ran a study during my cursus about this and i didn't find any significant difference between 'dangerous breeds' and others. The literature I found confirmed this hypothesis. If you have an article confirming this fact i would gladly appreciate it. If necessary i can give you some articles to read. As far as I'm aware it does not appear to be a fact.

    [Support] UEFI boot order changed when booting into windows
  • Hi I am not a linux pro, but for me a quick fix what worked was to disable Windows boot. basically everytime windows boot it puts itself as priority, but cannot any more this way. I would then use the grub menu at boot to select what os i needed. I use mint but since both are based on ubuntu should work in the same way. found this online, more or less what i did: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/241809/grub2-gone-every-time-i-boot-windows-10 https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/68581/how-can-i-prevent-windows-from-overwriting-grub-when-using-a-dual-boot-machine
