Nestle is Swiss, not EU. Also they're quite an immoral company. I wouldn't put the word "flourishing" near Nestle.

It's quite laggy and my laptop isn't even old/weak.

Yes, you're right.

Unfortunately, running Java code in a browser requires emulating a Java virtual machine using JavaScript/WebAssembly (in this case, I used cheerpJ), which will run Mars4_5.jar. There are several layers that limit the performance of MARS MIPS in the browser.

Even so, it's possible to test ALL the functionalities of MARS in small projects.

Why? What didn't you like about it? That's one of Bergman's best films.

What rules based order?

That's my point - no one wants to be the person who says "the emperor has no clothes".

FCAS seems to be in a little trouble but GCAP is doing OK.


Based on recent events, China seems to be an all-round an unreliable ally. China did nothing for Venezuela when Maduro was kidnapped by the US, did nothing for Pakistan when India conducted airstrikes on Pakistani military bases, and now is doing nothing for Iran. You guys seem more like ruthless businessmen who are in it to solely make money and nothing else, and in that regard you guys are very similar to the Americans.

kind of true.

If it's the same test I saw a few weeks ago, college aged kids should have been able to do just fine without a calculator.

Russia has a license to make their own in Russian factories, but this will decrease Russia's overall supply.

I have 2 hobbies: maths and chess. For maths: I borrow books from the library or pirate them from anna's archive and do problems from the books on printer paper. Very cheap hobby overall. For chess: I bought cheap plastic pieces and a board from amazon (cost me £25/$30), I pirate chess books from anna's archive and I play on lichess (it's free).

Also without sounding like an elitist: not all hobbies are equal. I have so much more respect for someone who sits in their room and studies something difficult like analytic number theory, or someone like you who powerlifts over some "Disneyadult" whose life revolves around buying Made-in-China Disney branded products (i.e. their hobby is just clicking "buy" on some site).


Your allies tried to warn you guys more than a decade ago:

>According to the report, GCHQ began passing information about contacts between Trump campaign officials and Russian operatives in late 2015. Agencies from Australia, Germany, Estonia, France, the Netherlands and Poland also passed on information until summer 2016.

I'm not "the US government" or "the Americans". There's no monolithic hivemind to yell at or at fault to say "I told you so". There were zillions of warning signs and alarm bells that went off the the US mainstream media failed to educate the populace about. And not enough of the people voter or applied critical thinking skills. Lots of blame to go around.

In the long view, there was/is a concerted effort by chaos agents in favor of radical upheaval/destruction/division who share (temporary?) interests, belonging to one or more of the following rough groupings:

- Putin, Musk, Bezos, Zuck, Ellison, Trump, and a litany of other billionaire oligarchs whom have each their individual interests for changing, breaking, or tweaking political and mass media institutions, processes, and leadership to capture more money for them.

- Crazy people who aren't educated or aware enough to understand what's going on and go along with what other fringe people said because they like hurting people who aren't them.

- Crazy people who know what's happening but profit directly from chaos despite the risks.. from bloggers to political consultants to merch sellers.

- Crazy people who know what's happening but have some irrational, ideological guide-star like the second coming of Jesus, "government overthrow", "creative destruction"/accelerationism, civil war, race war/separatism, and/or world war.

And then there's:

- Unknowable ~5-70% (varying by forum and piece of content) of engagement generated by bots and sockpuppet human-based boiler room phony engagement to shift sentiment and manufacture consent towards one or more of the above. In some videos on YT, there's like 80% meme coin spam. And there's a lot of repetitive comments by spammers calling for violence that seem like bots.

- Unknowable % emergent issue advocacy groups covertly or overly formed in service of any of the above.

- People who exhibit cognitive dissonance to reality of the risks and changes but benefit directly or indirectly from the chaos. This is endorsement of the outcome while internally disagreeing with the means, but not enough to take a principled stand.

My bottom line: Defend democracy and don't carry water for the Kremlin by in-fighting amongst the 99.9%. Most of the 0.1% through under-restrained greed are the perpetual enemy of organized civilization, and so the Marcus Licinius Crassuses and separation of power must be vigilantly maintained through countervailing factions, structures, policies, and countermeasures in relative balance in passionate contention short of harmony. Bribery, emoluments, chaos, stupidity, and tranquilizing reform delay has got to go.


The American people had a dosier publicly available. And after that, Project 2025 and impeachments and 34 felonies and a civil conviction of rape. All of which were absolutely reported on.

You can't pretend the collective will of American voters just isn't a vile, stupid person who wanted Trump and all that entails at this point.
