Many reports are either “Spam or Abuse” or “Breaks Community Rules,” without further elaboration. Often, like in this case, they are not compelling arguments. We’re not swayed by lazy, generic crybullying. In fact it may earn one a temp ban.

Protip: check who the mods are before reporting.
That’s a lot of mod interventions for a one month old account. You’re what I might call “high maintenance.”
Tankie is a floating signifier, a pejorative, a thought-terminating cliché, a rhetorical cudgel.
The only reason why you would deny it or hide it is if you have an agenda.
Or because it’s a thought-terminating pejorative. And in any case, just as it is impossible to be unbiased, it is impossible to be agendaless. By implying that I have some secret agenda, you’re doubling down on McCarthyism.
Maybe capitalist states should do that, but they won’t because they’re capitalist states. They’ll form bourgeois democracies at best and fascism at worst[1][2][3].
Fredrich Engels, 1872: On authority
Have these gentlemen ever seen a revolution? A revolution is certainly the most authoritarian thing there is. It is the act by which one part of the population imposes its will on the other part by means of rifles, bayonets and cannons — by the most authoritarian means possible; and the victors, if they do not want to have fought in vain, must maintain this rule by means of the terror which their arms inspire in the reactionaries. Would the Paris Commune have lasted a single day if the communards had not used the authority of the armed people against the bourgeoisie? Should we not, on the contrary, reproach them for not having used it enough?
Therefore, we must conclude one of two things: either the anti-authoritarians don’t know what they’re talking about, in which case they are only sowing confusion; or they do know, in which case they are betraying the proletarian movement. In either case, they serve reaction.
Tankie is a floating signifier. If you ask twenty liberals what a tankie is you’ll get
The New York Post in c/technology, or really anywhere but c/nottheonion?
That’s a poor analogy given that the Pi 5 & Pi 400 are incomparably more powerful than 1980s home computers, and I don’t think OP was asking if a Pi 5 can run WordPerfect or VisiCalc.
I’ve never heard anyone say “on people” instead of “about people”? Is it an Albany expression?
To mention anything remotely associated with Russia is to be a paid Putler puppet; a lot of people are saying. See you at Tolstoy & the Dostoevsky book burning.
Some people do get upset; some people don’t.
The easily upset don’t—or refuse to—understand that 1) some of us have brains that just don’t remember people’s names very well, and that 2) they should get over themselves.
We get the strangest reports sometimes.

How would the foreignness of the agents be relevant? And why ask that when I’m a thousand times more likely to be hunted down by domestic agents?
@d3Xt3r@lemmy.nz, did you actually look at the options in this poll? Because some of them are as racist and as fascist as can be imagined.
Making me divide by 12: that’s a paddlin’.

China files more patents than the next nine countries combined: https://www.wipo.int/en/ipfactsandfigures/patents
China is first country to hold over 4 million domestic patents
The number of China’s domestic valid patents does not include those held in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan.
I noticed today the Tom’s Hardware has been keeping track of Chinese GPU developments.
They don’t have a tag for tracking Chinese GPUs in particular, but they have one for GPU news in general.
China also seems to have some interesting embargo work-arounds:
