Yeah no. There is no way 20% of the Chinese population is homeless. Your source is a US government website, I'm sure they're not biased about China.

Jitsi now requires an account with Google or Microsoft to use it afaik.

Well good luck to Unity in fighting massive games like FGO or Genshin.

Yeah this is why many bigger studios just use their own Engines even if they're shit.

This Ain't even the worst name Sony has ever given to a product.

Probably won't. WhatsApp is already huge. Threads was a new platform with artificially inflated user numbers.

This article just ignores non Chinese debt though? Which form the larger share in Pakistan.

And for Sri Lanka, China has offered relief which also led to the IMF also negotiating debt relief with Sri Lanka.

I agree with Zambia, the Chinese didn't play nicely there and acted quite hawkishly. But they did restructure the debt in June when western lenders agreed to do the same.

Also your article doesn't really talk about events that lead to the economies of Pakistan and Sri Lanka ( Countrywide floods and covid killing tourism respectively) crashing and implies that it's entirely china's fault. I think they are quite important when talking about dying economies.

Also would like to add that this still doesn't compare to European Colonialism.

Eastern European countries love their "macho" leaders. Putin has been doing the whole shtick since forever and Zelensky started it too since 2022. Fucking hate this shit.

Bitwarden is practically free. You can pay for some extra features but all the core features and unlimited passwords storage works. Nobody should pay for a password manager.

China unironically has been more helpful to African development in the past few decades than Europe in the past few centuries. Mostly because China wants Africa to be turned into a prosperous region and serve as customers to China meanwhile the west has been focused on wealth extraction from day one.

I don't understand why Ukraine didn't ask the US government for this and instead asked Musk directly. Ofc he wouldn't do it unless pressured by the government.
