EU politicians reading this: Got it, make deals with nazis, purge BRICS. Fuck US (sexually)

call me, we can talk, I am lonely too

hyperflush

We can chat via text. I can barely handle calls with people I know.

I love how he has 0 understanding of things even tech laymen know.

You know what? I like this. It's more comedy for future historians.

Maybe if you are trying to recreate 19th century factories.

Sixth 5 year plan completed

illuminating inequality

vote socialist

What the hell has this fictional "CPA" been doing for 30 years if inequality still needs to be illuminated and elections need to be fought sicko-no

Tulku Hungkar Dorje, a widely respected religious leader and philanthropist, was reportedly detained by Chinese authorities in early 2024. In August 2024, Chinese officials claimed he had “gone missing” shortly after he gave a public teaching on 21 July 2024.

This timeline seems contradictory. He was detained in early 2024, but then gave a public teaching in late July 2024? And then he went missing, under a prolonged detention?

Sources indicate

Yes, the anonymous sources

fabricated charges

I'm sure I can trust western media to be unbiased

Additional accusations included “disobeying higher authorities” for his philanthropic work of establishing monasteries and schools, and “causing disturbances” for advocating for the rights and freedom of marginalized Tibetans under the repressive Chinese rule.

Oh, I guess not

The detention, torture, and killing of respected leaders like Tulku Hungkar Dorje is a deliberate strategy to silence those who advocate for Tibetans’ fundamental rights.

Really laying it on thick huh? There are no pretensions, just accepting the worst speculations and accusations as fact without any investigation. Truly lib behavior.

Inside and outside the White House, advisers say Trump is unbowed even as the world reels from the biggest increase in trade hostilities in a century. They say Trump is unperturbed by negative headlines or criticism from foreign leaders.

Therein lies the appeal of Trump

Numerous more sophisticated approaches were developed than the one Trump selected, people familiar with the matter said.

Would mind sharing them?

The White House demanded that Britain and India change their health and sanitation rules to make it easier to export U.S. agricultural products.

Worry not, the nurglites are in control. Bird flu for everyone.

In Brazil, India and Europe, they targeted digital regulations that have entangled U.S. tech giants.

God I hope the EU doesn't use this as an excuse to scrap privacy laws (like they keep trying with chat control).

White House spokesman Kush Desai said Trump had assembled “the best and brightest economic team in modern history” to develop the tariff plan.

The best and brightest of mainstream economists? Wouldn't be surprised if this was actually true, given how dumb economists are.

That's true, but I don't think settlers are considered civilians under international law either way

Tariffs and tax cuts are basically the only 2 things in which trump actually believes.

Funniest possible outcome. The Germans found out it was stolen, try to get it back, fail, then agree agree for the money to be spent on Ukraine as a compensation. The money is never spent on Ukraine.

Maybe it could be possible. I'll have to look into it.

 

So uh, I've been girlmodding for 2 months now (or is it 3? I forget), but I've been pretty lazy about it. Haven't bought a bra (I had a sports bra, but it was so uncomfortable to wear. Now going outside is getting uncomfortable because of chaffing), Haven't gotten proper clothes, or waxxed or any of that shit.

But, that stuff can be fixed relatively easily. The big thing I need is voice training. Unfortunately, I am like the worst person in the world for keeping my focus on things (I am 90% sure i have at least mild adhd). Plus, I have no idea how to actually voice train. So my question to you all is if there is some voice training app I can download.

I need something

  1. That works on android
  2. Tells me what to do
  3. Doesn't collect my data (I am not doing the legal route of transitioning)
  4. Is preferably just an apk file I can download and run on my phone.

Now this might seem like overly specific requirements, but I figured that it's 2025, there should be something out there.

If there isn't, I would be fine with just some tips and a guide. I will make my own bash scripts to keep me on track (idk how much of a joke this is).

*I know I could probably google this stuff but I am so godawfuly lonely I am willing to talk about anything.

This is a real big update to my simulation and reworks the entire logic of it. Though doing so allows me to investigate even more stuff. Check out the post on the old sim if you haven't seen it.

At this point, the sim has become so complex, I don't think I can explain it in as much depth as the previous one.

So I'll keep it simple and show you my assumptions, results, and code. There are 10 sectors in the economy this time (so the visualization has changed)

As always, "economic reproduction" is the condition where nobody in the economy gains or looses money by the end of the production period.

The code and pictures are in the comments.

Also, I'd like /u/Sebrof and /u/pancake@lemmygrad.ml to see this post.

Assumptions:

  1. There are no banks, governments, population growth or technological changes. None of these things are modeled yet since they distract from the point of the model, which is to see how labor prices and economic reproduction are related.

My next model will try to model these things to see if the relationship between labor prices and economic reproduction still holds

  1. The logic of this model is inverted to the last one. In the previous model, we started with a net output (sold to consumers) then calculated how much gross output would be needed (sold to consumers and to factories) to maintain this. This time, I randomly generate a gross output then compute a net output.

  2. I randomly generate 100,000 economies, each with its own technological level (the 10x10 A matrix), a set of prices (10x1 column vector), and employment in industries (10x1 vector). I assume everyone is employed. Also, this time, there is only 1 price vector per economy.

  3. For each economy, I randomly generate a "basket of consumption", which is the amount of products that its people will consume. I scale the basket so that it could be produced by half the labor of the economy, and keep the basket constant for all time.

  4. This time, there is foreign trade. If the economy produces more of a product than what is required for the basket, that's exports. Otherwise it imports.

  5. I simulate 100 time steps for each economy. Every time step, the sectors of the economy will update their prices and employment. There were many possible rules for choosing how these updates happened. I made it so that the sectors hire workers in proportion to how much money they have (divided by how much it costs to hire workers). Prices are scaled down as a sector grows (due to competition)

  6. Then I compute all the financial data (like revenues, wages, incomes, costs, trade imbalances, profits, etc) and plot it.

The important accounting identities are:

National income = Wages + trade balance

National income = Revenues of industry - Costs of industry (not including wages)

I don't care if the depicted woman is being transphobic. I don't care if she is being hypocritical about body modifications. I do not care that she is part of a fascist cult*. You don't make fun of that shit for exactly the same reason it sucks when libs become transphobic against shitty trans people. It's about setting a standard. You don't make fun of people's bodies or use them to score political points.

The reply to the top most comment should give be sufficient to tell you how the libs are treating this (combine that with their track record of being transphobic against people they don't like).

*if only unfunny comics could fight fascism. Trump wouldn't have made it past 2015.

 

Here is the lemmygrad post I made it at (don't wanna have to copy everything over).

Please give the post lots of heart-sickle, the post would really appreciate it

Don't be afraid to ask questions.
