but both

2018-07-09 18:30:21 UTC  

You'll have to provide source for that because that sounds amazing.

2018-07-09 18:30:48 UTC  

my wife told me it it was in chinese, let me see if i can find english source

2018-07-09 18:33:18 UTC  

I mean, its terrible that it happens and its probably a plauge waiting to explode but at the same time it has been a dream of mine to live in a crypt.

2018-07-09 18:35:08 UTC  

i cant find it in english yet, just chinese. it might take a bit for english publication to run it

2018-07-09 18:37:26 UTC  

Its weord how chinese is almost impossible to google translate to english since apparently every character is a self contained word or idea. Unless I'm misunderstanding chinese again.

2018-07-09 18:37:54 UTC  

you can google translate it, it just comes out weird sometimes

2018-07-09 18:38:47 UTC  

Huh, must just be the camera mode of google them.

2018-07-09 18:39:04 UTC  

yeah that thing definitely sucks

2018-07-09 18:40:40 UTC  

Chinese must be unsually hard to get machines to learn given variances of handwriting and fonts.

2018-07-09 18:40:59 UTC  

Or the AI refuses to learn chinese.

2018-07-09 21:23:02 UTC  

its harder than the latin ones yes, but only because its more squiggly

2018-07-09 21:23:09 UTC  

not harder than other squiggly scriptures

2018-07-09 21:26:26 UTC  

Landed taipei

2018-07-09 21:26:46 UTC  

Taiwanese coastline is aesthetic

You say China isn't cyberpunk, but why actually? Given how cheap tech seems to be over there, could you pinpoint a reason why they haven't smart homed up every apartment in sight?

2018-07-09 21:27:42 UTC  

I'm walking to immigration now <:thvnk:332928260004642827>

2018-07-09 21:28:00 UTC  

...

2018-07-09 21:28:15 UTC  

So did you post any traps while in Thai?

2018-07-09 21:28:27 UTC  

yes

2018-07-09 21:28:36 UTC  

in siam

2018-07-09 21:28:49 UTC  

Fuck, then I missed it

2018-07-09 23:29:44 UTC  

@Sdeck37 because the wages get you rice amd cigarettes and smart homes are memes

2018-07-10 00:51:08 UTC  

@Sdeck37 because people just like smart phones. Most tvs I see are still CRT, VGA is still 90% of connections, and people are generally too poor to smart up their home

2018-07-10 00:51:27 UTC  

They think smart phones are enough, generally

2018-07-10 00:51:37 UTC  

(this is for the general public)

2018-07-10 00:52:00 UTC  

And people don't like to upgrade their homes

2018-07-10 00:52:05 UTC  

They think that's throwing money away

2018-07-10 00:52:25 UTC  

The price of the apartment will go up in price even if you do nothing

2018-07-10 00:52:34 UTC  

So trying to make it nice is seen as waste

2018-07-10 00:53:06 UTC  

Owning the car and apartment are more Important, not really the inside

2018-07-10 00:53:19 UTC  

People prefer location and expensive to interior and functionality

2018-07-10 03:19:07 UTC  

hope you're getting out soon, typhoon maria's predicted to make landfall tomorrow evening

2018-07-10 05:42:28 UTC  

That's... underwhelming

2018-07-10 05:44:25 UTC  

Really makes you think how they acquired that cyberpunk status over here..

2018-07-10 07:14:52 UTC  

the viability of cheap repair and availability of cheap components

2018-07-10 07:15:36 UTC  

nowhere else in the world can you buy a stack of dead iphone pcbs for a benjamin

2018-07-10 08:40:30 UTC

2018-07-10 11:44:55 UTC  

Is it like Thailand where it's important to have a nice car as well

2018-07-10 16:18:55 UTC  

Landed in Paris
