My daughter managed to purchase two movies (Last Round and Frozen 2) on our Apple TV. She was 8 months at the time.

Great movie.

Assuming that data is basically a tool for doing PsyOps, it certainly puts the social networks operated by for example Chinese companies in a different light. That would mean total control.

Could you imagine if the Silicon Valley companies were obligated to share their data troves with the American government?

I understand now why every little shithole in China (e.g. my parents in law's small village) have better Internet fiber connections than I will ever have in Scandiavia.

What? That doesn't make any sense at all. Someone goes through the trouble of developing a network adapter and doesn't provide a Windows driver??? What DO they provide drivers for then??

They gotta fill the whole spectrum of people, I suppose. As long as there is something for me, I am satisfied and I do find a gem of documentary once in a while or an old movie, I didn't watch for a long time.

If it works, it works. I remember standing at the base of the new Tencent double tower, when it was being constructed. They were almost done with the concrete skeleton and the beams looked all crooked standing there looking up at the structure - each column on each floor was slightly misplaced compared to the previous one. I am no construction engineer, but I believe they should have been placed in a straight line, but maybe I am wrong..

Never really thought about it except those times I forgot to pay my VPN

Cleaner than my home town in Scandinavia. Was living in South part of China.
