  I mean “企” character by itself isn’t really a word, but maybe the person thought of 企业 (Enterprise/Bussiness), which I would say technically that person isn’t like lying, just a misunderstanding of language.

  But then again, I’ve only attended primary school grade-levels in China, so I’m no word expert either.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dirt Man⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  In Chinese (like most dialects), North Pole is just 北极 (“Northern Extreme”), South Pole is 南极 (“Southern Extreme”). Arctic is just 北极 with the extra character 地区 meaning area (“Northern Extreme Area”), Antartica is 南极洲 (“Southern Extreme Continent”).

  There’s no weird etymology involving bears lol

  Maybe we should let someone from China or Taiwan contact the aliens?

  Last I check, Canada isn’t accepting asylum applications from Americans, because having a wannabe dictator for president is apparantly not a good enough reason to be granted asylum.

  It’s only great if you intend to play exclusives, otherwise, Steam Deck is probably better. I mean, you can save a lot of money by pirating the games, can’t do that on a Nintendo.

  It doesn’t have the backing of a powerful government unlike fiat does, so its effectively worthless in the eyes of the average person.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Could one legally get a hold of those bank bill dye security dye packs, dye your own legally obtained cash with it, and spend it places? Just to make people suspect you're secretly a bank robber.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s a law in the US where if the police kills someone in pursuit of you when you’re committing a felony, you get blamed for their death (aka: felony murder). So I assume the bank robber just get blames for it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Have most people never seen a full starry night sky⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I vaguely remember when I was like 6 or 7, I was at my maternal grandparent’s ancestral house and it was summer and I was just lying outside on the ground staring at the night sky, and I think the adults were just talking about stuff I don’t remember. I mean its been almost 2 decades, the memory is very fuzzy. I remember ther was lizards on the house, and there was like a very swampy farmland area thing (idk how to describe it lol). It wasn’t like the done with machinary, at least not at the time, it was done manually. (Luckily I never had to do that, my Hukou was rural so it would’ve been quite shitty), I heard from my mother there was some blood-sucking worm hiding on the farm. This was in Mainland China around 2000-2010s, so there wasn’t much electricity in the village, and very few light-pollution. I don’t remember there being internet, my concept of the world was so small, now I’m all the way in the United States. I heard that most people die very close to where they were born, and don’t even have a passport. And I’ve have passports from 2 different countries! (well not simultaneously, but you get the idea)

  I don’t think I ever recognized any contallations, I was way too young at the time. Or maybe I did and forgot… 🤷‍♂️

  Now I kinda wanna just go someplace rural to see the night sky, bit unfortunately, not being white and going to a rural area in America feels… um… 👀 verrry sketchy, to say the least (cuz racism lol).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How did you decide what you generally wanted to do with your life?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Still deciding tbh.

  So many options:

  On one hand, I could be a corrupt lawyer that works for the rich. Or a politician taking bribes.

  Or I could consider becoming a drug dealer, and maybe eventually become a mob boss?

  I always wonder what’s it like sailing the high seas, maybe visit Somalia to experience that a bit?

  Maybe be a Corrupt CEO?

  Revolutionary?

  Maybe a bit of Terrorism?

  Nuclear Dictator?

  Hmm idk man…

  Choices, choices… hard to decide… 🤔

  You really think you can trust the police?

  ACAB

  The only way out of this is self-defence militias, but unfortunately, people left-of-center have already been disarming themselves while the far-right have been stocking up on ammunition, all thanks to the anti-gun rhetoric.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you reconcile staying sane while keeping yourself up-to-date with the news?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I ignore the news, because I’m probably dying withing a few years, so I’m just chillin’ and enjoying whatever’s left.

  Don’t need to make depression worse, I’m not a politician, I can’t change anything.

  I’m not a cis white dude (I’m Chinese-American), its not my fight. Like what am I supposed to do? Protest, get a lot of attention from the government, and then get labeled a “CCP Spy” get set to some gulag. Then they’ll raid Chinatown and pillage everything. Then some of the first-gen inmigrants are gonna go on wechat and blame me for “stirring the pot”. I mean, can you imagine if Thomas Matthew Crooks was a gay black guy? It would’ve been so much worse. So much scapegoating. If I do anything, they’ll just scapegoat everyone that looks like me.

  So good luck y’all, my health is deteriorating, don’t have the brain energy to take action, and I’ve already accepted death, literally hurts my brain to think.

  In 2015 I’d agree.

  In 2025? Nah, look at what’s happening around the US.

  Dems are losing votes because of the guns issue, drop the gun issue, along with promoting a progressive platform and that’s easily winning elections.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon breaks up⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Eh, the cops are worse than the guns.

  Don’t be disarming when gestapo in roaming the streets.

  (But Anon probably supports the gestapo tho… 🤷‍♂️)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon breaks up⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Lemmy wants it easier for cops to take away your guns, but simultaneously distrust the cops and want to abolish the police. So which is it lol?

  But then again, this is 4chan so Anon probably is on the side of the tyrants anyways; they think they’re part of “the good ones”.
