On the hardware level, it will take a while. In the software level, I don’t think it will ever happen.
I'm no computer engineer, but this seems like a silly take. Hardware requires supply chains and some of the most closely guarded technology in the world. Software requires programmers and time.
the Linux Kernel, the GNU stuff, the systemd stuff, the Freedesktop specifications, Xorg if they still use it, wayland protocols and wlroots, are all developed by people from The West,
Literally anyone can download those things and fork them. And I wouldn't be surprised if there's already chinese contributors. And if China really wanted, they could even ignore the GPL and not publish their changes to the source code 😲
Not everyone can download extreme UV lithography.
Because of propaganda, people find it easier to imagine the end of the world before the end of capitalism. Just the same, theres lots of commenters here that could imagine the end of the internet before they imagine the end of advertising on the internet.
Pay executives less. Focus on grants and PBS-style 'underwriting'. Subscription services like email and VPN.
Getting into advertising is just jumping into an intractable conflict of interest.
It means he can't go to Israel
That can't be it. Of course the foreign intelligence headquarters were built with all sorts of security in mind.

just think this is an incredibly irresponsible and flagrant way to phrase the title specifically. Data doesn’t support it, the sheer numbers don’t support it either. Like the actual number is 0.000004% percent of the US population have been sentenced to death, and executed in the US since 1976.
You've completely lost the plot, mate. Nobody is saying that a significant percent of the population is being executed.
How many people have been executed on Putin's orders? A hundred? So that's only like 0.00007% of the Russian population. no big deal then.
The VAST majority of that coming from the south.
because we’re talking about a specific state, exercising independent rights over capital punishment,
Independent rights granted by the supreme court. AKA the federal government. The 9 robed, tenured individuals are part of the regime. You're just uncritically accepting the federalist society's position here.
Did you know there was once a moratorium on all executions in the US? But you seem to think of it as a natural law that Missouri has the right to execute whoever they please.
The title reads as if the “US government” (an entity, which is not an appropriate description) solely and single handedly murdered a guy
You're inferring way too much here. Nobody said or implied that the US federal government was solely responsible for this execution. When a headline reads that the Russian regime assassinated a political dissident, do you take the time to point out the federated nature of the Russian government? Would it matter that the evidence points more to an official act of the Dagestan government instead of a direct order from the Kremlin?
Obviously this isn't a perfect analogy. But the "US government" (the entity, which is an appropriate description) has given the greenlight for these executions. The supreme court has approved these punishments, and the executive and legislative branches have done nothing to prevent it.
suddenly, that lone state speaks for an entire population of 330 million people.
When someone calls a government a "regime" they're usually implying that the government doesn't accurately reflect the will of the people.
He is ignoring US laws about supplying arms to countries plausibly accused of genocide. He's suppressing career bureaucats' assessments of israeli conduct. He's the one doing the hogtying
It wasn't. The quote is from back in May, when Biden lied about having a red line about Raffa
