I dunno....just plain sounds like this is a Chinese Communist govt. asset in charge of the US's one chip manufacturer....

If I were IBM that fucker would be out quick...if for not for the security risk, but the coming stock drop.

LOL,,,

I dream a LOT....but most all of them are pleasant, or maybe just quirky and weird.

I heard something strange the other day...that most men supposedly dream in black and white?

Anyone else heard this?

Mine are all color.....

Strange stuff....I was surprised the other day to hear some people when they remember things don't actually seem pictures of it in my mind....blew me away.

You are aware that the homicide rate in the US is about 5 times that of almost every country in Europe

In the US, unless you are in the hood buying drugs...or say,...Chicago....you're not really in any real daily danger in the US.

I was told only criminals would be rounded up.

Err...if you are in the US illegally, as in your crossed the border illegally, which is a crime...you are by definition a criminal.

And it does appear ICE is targeting higher level criminals, BUT if they are doing that and come across other illegals, are you suggesting they just let them go for some reason?

Seriously ?

We voted to get them ALL out.

Who gives a fuck about china...or anywhere else in the world that isn't the US?

So they are arresting anyone and anything they can get their hands on to meet those quotas.

Blatant lies....

Unless you are hanging out in a Home Depot parking lot for day labor, or other places that the majority of our illegal immigrants hand out and try to work, you're in the clear, no one is bothering you.

I"m a bit hesitant to travel to Europe....all the immigrant stabbings I hear about over there...

Frankly, the US is SO large and so much of it I've not explored yet.

I"m thinking of my next few breaks....hopping on my motorcycle with some friends and traveling parts of the US on bike.....

Move money spent on actual visits and less on the travel expenses....and seeing the beautiful parts of the US that are out there...mountains, plains, worlds largest ball of twine and other side quests......

Tourism is collapsing. The Evo fighting game tournament saw a 20% drop in entrants and that's pretty much because people don't feel safe coming to America.

Why would that be?

I just saw the latest stats...violent crime in the US is down....in pretty much all categories...

I mean, unless you're trying to come here illegally I can't think of a reason to sweat it.

Right now with all the illegal immigrant problems in parts of EU....seems to be mostly Muslim...with stabbing, rape squad problems, etc....I'd be worried about visiting over there.

Those aren't really problems you see wide spread over here in the US.

I feel quite safe when I go out and about here in the US.

I've had no problems with my LG TVs....nor the remotes.

That being said, I run all mine off either Apple TV or Fire TV boxes....

For OLED, I don't think LG can be beat at this time....

It is called "football" because when you play, you mostly kick a ball with your feet (as opposed to using your hands, a stick, or whatever) and it is the most widely practiced sport in the world.

I'm aware there are some parts in the world where the same word is used by some to refer to a boring rugby derivative, but it isn't really a wide or important use.

Yeah, but that means squat in the US, and slashdot IS a US centric site....so....

Anyone know of dietary methods of boosting lithium?

Oh...it's about soccer.....took me a minute to figure it out....something about something called FIFA and then I looked it up.

I don't see any problems......said with a perfectly straight face.

I have no problem with ICE acting within the laws on the books and kicking people who are here illegally the fuck out of the US.

In fact, I voted for it.

that is to say, about ensuring the country can produce the things it needs during a time of conflict, and not relying on imports for essential technology. That seems to be a more likely reason for this specific push, but they always try to hide these things behind

"jobs"...ah...politics...sigh...,

You almost seem to be saying this like it is NOT a good primary reason for bringing manufacturing back to the US?

Per my other post, did you forget covid days?

It is a national security risk big time...especially with china who is openly antagonistic to the US.

Manufacturing jobs are gone. And good riddance

Nope...we need as much of the critical manufacturing as we can do in the US.

Did you forget the pandemic so quickly? We got a good glimpse at what a national security threat looks like when we depend on external nations (some openly hostile like china) for our products and raw materials ......

If you don't do it here...other nations have you by the balls....

.....and not in the good way.
