evil laugh Monkey paw: - Done. China mandates Linux, US mandates Windows. Everything else is a crime punishable by death
Some examples: China produces a huge amount of solar panels that we need for green energy. China is also building and using a ton of coal power plants, more than any other country.
China is moving away from Microsoft which will lead to decrease in Microsoft power and hopefully lead to a bunch of work on open source projects. China is also comitting genocide on the Uyghurs.
Oh really? China doesn’t make solar panels? I could have sworn I saw ‘made in china’ on a bunch of solar panels recently, but I guess I was wrong. Thanks, I’ll make sure to report all articles on China and solar panels as fake news.
Those latter two examples seem pretty unrelated. I’m no fan of China’s government for various reasons, but them moving away from Microsoft seems like a good outcome for everyone.
You’re not using consumption adjusted emissions and are therefore accidentally saying nonsense, if you use consumption based emissions, the us is at like double… so uh no, they win there too undeniably.
Also the trajectory is better too.
i’m not saying china is great but that’s a nonsense point.
They’re manufacturing for other countries, hence the indexed emissions I recommended. Consumption adjusted emissions tells a much more fair story, it’s easy to be zero emissions if you move all manufacturing to china.
Massive population.
It’s not a valid metric. Per thing consumed china creates way less emissions.
China is a monkey paw
What?

China does a lot of things that are good and then counteracts them with bad, like monkey paw wishes. This is just another example
How so?

Etc
There is not one truth in your fantasy.

More software freedom, less human freedom
Those are not causally related
I never said they were and that wasn’t my point?

China has more coal power plants than any other country, by a huge margin. 8x more than the US. How is that nonsense?
For two reasons
It’s not a valid metric. Per thing consumed china creates way less emissions.
Strange, I don’t remember mentioning emissions at all. Pretty sure I was contrasting producing green tech with dirty power plants.
So China will counteract its adoption of linux by… Committing a genocide? Something doesn’t add up here.
If you want to criticize China then find something more relevant and credible than CIA propaganda.
Oh a genocide denier. Stop drinking the coolaid. Do you deny the genocide in Palestine too?

Projection.
They seem to do that well.
Please educate yourself about international affairs before discussing them
How would one proceed into such an endeavour, in your opinion? Genuinely curious.
Go read reports from humanitarian organisations like amnesty international etc.
