So every person who has a southern accent is part of:

> I am talking about a group of people who share vile political goals

right?

So are you implying that they only gain the accent when they join this group or that having the accent makes them predisposed somehow to join it, or what?

What makes your diatribe (part II) even more mind-boggling is that this whole discussion is about people who chose to move to some other states. Which probably would make them less likely to support these “shitty ideologies”? That is unless you believe they are somehow predisposed to hold ’vile’ views because of where they were born?

> Guess it's a good thing I'm saying bad things about people with shitty ideologies.

Well you’re implying that any person who speaks with a southern accent is incapable of holding liberal/progressive(?) beliefs? Or that anybody born in “the south” is regardless pf the accent? That everyone who doesn’t/isn’t is a somehow inherently superior human being? It’s hard to say.. either idea is pretty disturbing.

> you wanted to get mad at?

I’m not mad.. just a bit puzzled and surprised that you’re not sharing your thoughts on Reddit instead.

Of course not. It just seems that they might actually be the most transparent segment of this entire system which makes more visible.

And well… from the society’s perspective high/very-high prices for new drugs for a decade or so (20 years seems too long though) might be a good deal if it results in very high investment into R&D.

Would you not expect companies which actually want to make to cores to have an advantage?

And the companies that don’t want to make it their core business but can afford enough resources (e.g. Google, Apple, Amazon) would just use them to leverage their core products.

I could only see this on the lower end where margins/required R&D investment are relatively low.

Why (besides religious reasons)?

I don’t see how can high-end/competitive RISC-V cores could be fully open/free and without that how is it better than ARM.

Possibly, but historically it high end semiconductors seem to turn into a winner takes all market more often than not. If that’s the case it’s probably preferable to have someone like ARM at the top than Intel or Nvidia.

> I don't but the ongoing war is for more land

I don’t think more land per se is the objective.

> As planned it's worked and USA has no answer to that problem

What problem is that? I don’t think US pays that much attention to NK.

From that perspective US has been much more successful than China. The existence of Taiwan as an independent state is a much, much bigger issue for for them than NK is for US.

> I'm just trying to say that strongest country wins no matter what.

Wins what? We’re not living in a grand strategy video game.

> Lockdowns, when done properly, do work.

It works when (or rather almost entirely because) you’re in a geographically isolated island.

Maybe the Netherlands could have pulled this of if they really wanted to, like them time they flooded half of the country to keep out the French but it’s not applicable to any other country in Europe

Out of all places do you think Russia is the one which needs more land?

Maybe because “the West” doesn’t want to “handle” North Korea (whatever that means)?

I’m sorry but I really don’t understand what are you trying to say..

> today Russia

Not exactly the fittest nor really that into survival (suicidal masochism would be a better description)

The islands themselves (and not the mainland where an overwhelming majority live) are closer to an amusement park than a real city

Problem is that without those old buildings there are no real practical reasons to live in Venice or build anything on top.

a ‘masterpiece’ is a very subjective term. Most are viewed as such not because of some objectively measurable quality but because of their uniqueness/originality (at the time) and context. In that regard it’s hard to imagine AI could achieve that until it became very good at imitating humans.

IMHO ARM is one of the best things that ever happened in the computer industry.

> non-toxic IP cores with enough performance from RISC-V

Why would anyone also their designs to be used for free or for cheaper than ARM does?

> pharmaceutical companies

But it’s hospitals/labs which are as bad or much worse in this regard. “Greedy” pharmaceutical companies are just a boogeyman, insurance companies, hospital admin and doctors are just fine with charging “random”/arbitrary fees based on clients perceived ability to pay and not in anyway related to actual costs.

Or rather these ‘rules’ would only generally apply anywhere if the mural/graffiti was painted with the consent of the owner
