I'd still be a little apprehensive. it'll take more than an AI sputnik moment to topple the US stock market in the short term.

That being said, I'm just glad the savings I do have in investments are explicitly divested from the US tech bubble.

Imagine making a social media app for the Chinese diaspora and literally calling it Little Red Book only for millions of westerners to flood it because their governments don't want their citizens indoctrinated with Maoism

Bizarre. But moreso funny when these Western companies go to court in Russia and expect any kind of result that favours them. Either way, the state will just take it over because you might be able to migrate capital but you can't migrate steel, bricks, and mortar.

the Democrats will just pander to this by getting an endorsement in 2028 from Andrew Tate.

Linus is an absolute cunt for not only following this gleefully but then attributing pushback to "russian trolls" and "state propaganda" fuck you man.

These people weren't the MIT pricks who inserted vulnerabilities into the kernel, they were contributors who did hard work and helped advance FREE software. Linus is now turning his back on the GPL and manning it clear that Linux can be controlled by the US state on a whim.

Every time this fucking meme is made I'm reminded that the US military is currently being embarrassed in the red sea by a non-state actor with zero air superiority, which began itself with a thousand-or-so civilians with AK47s.

That or how Israel is currently struggling to achieve any kind of military victory against two groups of lightly-armed militias which rely on scavenged and hand-made explosives to defeat state-of-the-art tanks.

Let's not even remind ourselves about the Taliban.
