  1. I am not familiar regarding the cases you are talking about (feel free to send me the links if it's not too much trouble, I would like to read about it), but if that was the case I would imagine those companies would be banned from selling to the west. There is a big push in the western news machine to promote China stealing IP (and I am not saying it doesn't, but I am trying to say that it isn't any worse than other countries), but I haven't actually seen any companies being charged or embargoed. You have Huawei, but that was done for "security reasons" and certainly not because it was going to overtake all other companies in the communication market and now you have tiktok for "stealing" user data for which I still don't understand what the difference is when compared to google or facebook. I'm sure there are other entities that have embargoes but these are the bigger cases and I haven't found one for IP theft.
  2. An example of rule breaking being? Collecting data? I mean tiktok is operating in EU still even though it's much more strict regarding user data than the US and I don't see it doing anything special compared to other social media app, other then not being owned by a western company. It's a myth that China is somehow special regarding this, the US has engaged multiple time in corporate espionage and stealing of technology, from its allies even and it's not like they are the paragon of respecting other countries rules either. It all boils down to profits and the ability to enforce the rules, there is no "justice" just interests. You would be surprised, people here are fascinated with Trump too.
  3. Happy new year everyone.
  4. Because they want to do business there and because more than likely China has investments in the company. Why should Chinese companies care about the US rules, the answer is more than obvious.
  5. The only joke was Marija Popic, made a mistake on the actual name. It's a common joke here in Serbia that most famous people in the world are just Serbs who changed their names to sound more western. For an example, Elon Muskovic.
  6. Excuse you, but we are really passionate about Merry Poppins, or Marija Popic as she is better know until they westernized her.
  7. Such is life. If I were to type some key words here, I would probably get banned instantly. Even though no one cares about them in my country. Wanna do business with a country respect their rules.
  8. Dandadan manga seems to be getting to the meat and potatoes of the story and is departing from the formula it used up till now.
  9. CL number should be lower, frequency should be higher. I have the Corsair Vengeance too, dito on RGB and they are low profile so my NH-d15 can clear them.
  10. Yep, similar price for the philips. But from the reviews I read the philips race vision is noticeably better than the Osram Nightbreakers. But both of those are sub 4k temp color. The only ones above 5k are the Osram blue light.
  11. I wouldn't let her drive with an improper cutoff line, but I still fear it would be **** for other drivers. I was going to get her these ones https://www.philips.co.uk/c-p/12972RGTS2/racingvision-gt200-car-headlight-bulb which seem to be the best ones on the market right now from all the reviews I read. There are also these ones, which are a less bright but offer a cooler color https://www.philips.co.uk/c-p/12972WVUSM/whitevision-ultra-car-headlight-bulb, although they are nowhere near 6k. Which brand/model are you using?
  12. @LadyCrimson Just pay attention to the latency when getting new ram. If it's cheap and high frequency, it's usually high latency too. Sister "inherited" a car and one of its headlight bulbs gave out. Do I go to the dark side and put in LEDs, or do I get a high output halogen... There are issues with both, the high output halogen last about 6 months to a year, but they pass the tech inspection. The LEDs are much brighter, but there are some fitment issues if I go with high quality ones. Also they would need to be taken out before every inspection, or she would need to find a place to do it with them in. The biggest thing is that I hate drivers who ****ing blind me with their low beams like they have high beams on... Now why I am considering LEDs in her case is because she has projectors for low beams and I would get some high quality Philips ones which have a good cut off line. Idk... will probably go with high output halogens and see how good they are. Either way the lights she has in now are crap.
  13. @majestic I'm pretty sure the algorithm consists of "You watch this genre? Here is the newest show in this genre." Idk about that anime, but the manga started out interesting, or at least had an interesting setup, but it turned out fairly boring pretty soon. Probably because I consumed too many isekais already and it was just too generic for me.
  14. Ah so they end it there? That's BS... Either way this is the creepy arc.
  15. They break from time to time, it's a game of cat and mouse.
  16. Or, just maybe, the western tech is not used as freely as the old soviet era. Highly subjective video in my opinion, but than again I don't follow the conflict that closely. What I did hear is that Kursk is the biggest graveyard of western weapons so far in the war, which would make sense as the Ukrainians were on the offensive there.
  17. For me personally, I saw Anno maxing out my ram and that was the trigger.
  18. So the epilogue of the story is that new dishwashers use so little water that these new washing tablets/pills don't dissolve all the way under certain conditions, ie. if the dishes are not that dirty the machine will automatically shorten the program making it even worse. So they increased the amount of water used to the max through their service app, but still recommend I use plain powder detergent for regular washing and just use the heaviest program instead of auto. Plus some of the ikea trays and salad bowls I have are crap, which is the least surprising thing in the story.
  19. 32GB is the new 16GB.
  20. First half of Secret Level was better, kind of a let down to end on these episodes. They should have shuffled it a bit better.
  21. I don't know if they have their oven too, but sliding the grill or pans out of the tracks makes an ungodly screeching sound. Also their dishwasher rusts my stainless steel... They are trying to convince me it's the chemicals I use (finish), the same I used in my previous Bosch one without any issues. If they try to convince me to use their tablets I am going to chuck it out the window...
  22. What do you clean it with? There are special cleaning solution for it, and you shouldn't use anything abrasive to scrub it with. For any spills, plastic included (ask me how I know), you use a glass top scraper to scrape it off. (just make sure to use it under a sharp angle and change the razors when damaged) You should also raise pot/pans when shaking them instead of sliding them on the glass. If the damage is already done, you can just use a polishing compound and remove most of the scratches. Miele has a cool design on its induction tops where there are little raised white bumps in the cooking zones, these prevent scratches from pots and pans. (They also offer a "diamond" finish, but I don't know how good that is)
  23. I'm always worried about driver support with getting an intel card...
