I have 7 various PebbleBees and they work great. Just recently used one to make sure my checked bag did not get lost and was able to track it at every step.

Yes, but which OS is still running glibc < 2.31?
Super relevant argument that ccp allows some companies to grow before they take over. And yes, obviously nobody would do business in China if they didn't share the profits. Hopefully nobody will ever do business again with a shithole like russia.
Except Nvidia is the third largest company in the world with a ton of existing IP that they would effectively be handing over to a country that has a history of stealing IP without any repercussions and had the resources to take advantage of that IP and make Nvidia irrelevant.
Right, for profit companies famously have a history of just handing themselves over to totalitarian regimes.
China has no successful companies that aren't approved, controlled and often subsidized by the party.
Bigger problem than tmsc is that China will just "legitimately" steal all IP and replace them with another company within a year. Moving to China is insane if you don't plan to bend over for the party.
They're probably not on staff and hiring them externally just got much more expensive and complicated.
That's what I mean. I'm happy to cover that. Bunch of small retailers have a notice that there's a 3% surcharge for CC transactions. Well worth it for me.
Tourism is pretty much the only reason some countries are still around. Not asking for preferential treatment - just don't be an asshole to someone that's there to respectfully explore your culture or enjoy your weather.
I don't mind covering CC fees to avoid the hassle/danger of cash when I'm traveling and in general tbh.
I am American. Naturalized almost 30 years ago. Proud to be one while also proud to be in a country where I can safely say I'm anti orange cunt and everything his supporters stand for.
My comment on cash was in support of what was said above. I've traveled a lot to my birth country of Ukraine before credit cards were a thing there and never had any issues with local currency or expected them to accept dollars.
I've also been all over Canada and paid with whatever retailer accepts if I wanted to do business there.
I'm also happy to cover CC fees for small retailers because I personally prefer to not deal with cash especially when I travel.
I struggle to imagine any reason to use cash unless you're a drug dealer. CCs will convert for you.
Neighbor's wild grape nearly destroyed my bottle brush trees. Now I have to spend 30 minutes every weekend cleaning that shit off my trees. Are other creeping plants not that destructive to trees?
