• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨South Korea says DeepSeek transferred user data to China and the U.S. without consent⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  This same article is getting rewritten/copypasted between all the “news” sites. It’s all based on absolutely nothing cause they provide zero evidence - it’s just empty accusations and broken links.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How would you run a society?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Sci-fi writer Ursula Leguin wrote a book about an anarcho-syndicalistic society called The Dispossessed. In that book, those who ‘opted out’ of this society were barred from enjoying the fruits of the collective labor but could still live on the outskirts and start their own subsistence farm or whatever. Societal control in that story was basically maintained through personal relationships among the community (shame those who don’t want to contribute) whereas the capitalistic society control method is threaten with death by restricting access to resources (home,food,water,etc). I’m not saying public shaming is the best route, but it’s still more humane than work or die.

  Kagi = best 5$/mo I spend. Found them in my de-googling process.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are Nickel and Cobalt considered ferrous?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yea it seems like including Ni and Co as ‘ferrous’ materials is only done in certain industries/applications. From a pure chemistry point of view, only iron (Fe) is ferrous. [source: got bachelors in chem]. Also, as mentioned elsewhere, some people/industries [incorrectly] use the term ‘ferrous’ to mean magnetic, but the actual term is ‘ferromagnetic’. Lots of the old terminology (lots of latin) is still used even though we now know they are technically incorrect.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are Nickel and Cobalt considered ferrous?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  In what context have you seen them referred to as ferrous? [source?]

  the Chinese state is censoring and fencing off some of the content there as a result. Source?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's Rednote and why is "everyone" talking about it?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  tiktok has(d) developed into a hivemind where tens of millions of people (or more?) can be a part of a discussion. This made it easy for trends to spread rapidly, such as deciding where to migrate with the impending tiktok ban. From my own experience on tiktok, the last few weeks there was much discussion of where to go, and it appears the hivemind settled on rednote.
