I cannot imagine what you might mean “the dalai lama was backed by the CIA”. I cannot but believe this is conspiracy theory or state propaganda. Besides, my knowledge about the PLA’s invasion was not isolated to the dalai lama.
EDIT: I looked it up. Being backed in that sense makes no difference to what the PLA visited on the Tibetan people.
P.S. I’m bowing out of this conversation. Good day to you
I kept it short because I considered it obvious and didn’t want to write something longer.
I know enough of what the PLA did to the Buddhist people and culture in Tibet, and I don’t hear this predominantly from western sources. Similar for their treatment of Uyghurs, though I think most of my news on that probably is Western.
That’s interesting to hear about the BRI, I will bear it in mind, but will need to verify.
Their behaviour wrt tibet, hong kong, taiwan, and the uyghurs come to mind. China is also happy to meddle in the affairs of other countries.
I know little of the workings of the global south, but how much of belt and road is just power projection, making countries dependent on china? They leave countries with immense debt
I wonder which part of my first post people objected to
not a dad, signed in just to upvote
well that’s massively simplifying it. I don’t see China being any better
You should also expect that no place is safe from climate disasters.
Deserts and low-lying coastal regions are more susceptible, surely? There must be places that will be less at risk, even if not from human effects such as migration.
Reviews suggest it predicts extreme outcomes without communicating confidence levels, i.e. it’s unrealistically alarmist. I might read it bearing that in mind.
I keep my location quiet online, but insurance company reports is an interesting avenue
Thanks, interesting. Written six years ago, has climate science changed its forecasts since then? I don’t know how fast the science moves
ubuntu for similar reasons
Hi, I want to play with sending small amounts of data between multiple GPUs, for a distributed computing POC, but want a small PC case. Most of the time I won’t use the GPUs.
I have other reasons to want a normal, small PC. I don’t expect to change the hardware much once I get it. I will consider the other approach, but in the mean time I’d like to know what the eGPU options are.
The prototype involves sending a small amount of data between devices, and doing some small calculations. I expect to get 3050s, and even those will be massive overkill. I’m specifically prototyping sending data.
Thanks for mentioning this, I’ll think about it.
In short, I have a very niche requirement for multiple (at least three) GPUs, but want an mATX build. Performance is unimportant, it’s all for a prototype
I was hasty in my judgement of that comment.
I left the conversation because I didn’t see it helping anyone.
