I paid 250€ for my current Xiaomi and I love it. It's ridiculous how good the phone is compared to its cheap price. No way I will stop using Chinese phones (especially since the CIA is a lot scarier than the CPC)

I think I could benefit from some motivation in the morning to help a bit with getting out of bed. The only podcasts I can find are either made by people like Jocko Willink shudders or just promote grind/hussle culture.

Is there anything motivational that isn't made by reactionaries?

That might be the case. You seem to know more about Batman than I do so I will do as Mao suggests and shut up before I haven't researched the topic.

Any Batman comics you could recommend?

That's the point. You have a Villain who wants something good (stop the destruction of nature) and then pair it with something very evil (genocide). It's a very common trope in media. It leads to the "Hero" of the story being able to defend the status quo again and again without ever challenging it.

Title says it all. Basically I am at a point where I can choose between 2 jobs.

One would leave me incredibly busy, completely stressed for the next 3-4 years and wouldn't leave me with a lot of free time in general (it also has a very high burn out quote) and a lot of young people who enter the job leave shortly after. The pay would be good, the job is incredible secure, it would make me a civil servant and it's a job I would mostly enjoy. I find it incredibly fulfilling and it is a lot of fun. But my job would be pretty much everything I do from then with no real time for other hobbies.

The other job is much more relaxed, it is even more fun and I would work with one of my hobbies. But the pay is dogshit I would make the least of any of my friends, it is less secure and the working hours are funky but regular. It might become very challenging to afford a family on this salary (not impossible though).

I feel like I am fucked either way. Any thoughts?

I think it's better than the opposite being the case.

Thanks that is almost what I was looking for. I thought about a text passage though.

Hello commrades,

I am looking for a source on the economic growth of the Soviet Union. I once read that had the Soviet Union survived it would have overtaken the USA sometimes around 2006 (maybe it was 2016 not sure). However I can't remember where I read that.

Has anyone here an idea of what I am talking about?

Since this community is pretty dead I thought I liven it up a little with some very light discussion about factions in our favourite wargame we absolutely hate.

So for me it's the Orks. I love them in 40k and AoS. The chaotic, ramshackle ridiculousness of them is incredible entertaining. That and I am more interested in building models and painting than playing and Orks are perfect for that.

I also like Necrons because they are so awful but in an honest way. Yes they want to get rid of the other races so that the Necrons rule once more over the galaxy. But from their point of view it's understandable. They ARE better than every other living race in technology and science. Years are to them like seconds to us. The difference between Necrons and other living races really is like the difference between us and insects.

Edit: I just want to clarify that I don't think the Necrons are right in wanting everything dead. I just get why terrible space Egyptians would believe that they are right. I like that they are very upfront and honest about being dickheads.
