gm the censorship resistant social media nostr requires fully tunneled vpn to access from china because most of relays and clients are blocked by GFW. and you're compromising your whole terminal's internet connection especially for the china based services. so practically there's no way a user in china could frequently use nostr like they could access Twitter via eg, partially Sockes5 proxy, if they don't build their own relay and aggregation server. ironically, standard vpns like Nordvpn is totally not accessible because they don't use any obfuscation for their WG alike tunnel and it's easily blocked. Mullvad is great and accessible even tho the GFW is clearly easier to block its traffic.

每次回国都被国内和欧洲的巨大的服务差感动得鼻子发酸,老婆早餐随便跟酒店阿姨聊了两句,原本11点结束的早餐到11:30的时候还给我留了一份让我赶紧下去吃,中午电梯碰到阿姨主动请我老婆去吃她们员工餐,晚上前台问要不要吃意面,送了果盘到房间。有求必应,问啥能给的都会想办法给。 国内卷成这样,各行各业都似乎习惯了高压工作和接近无原则地跪舔客户

there's CCTV cameras everywhere in china because of reason 1/2 you've already known that big brother is watching everything, and more important reason 2/2 is that people want to and it works because the society is in a centralized trustless mode where no one is trusting another but a centralized source of power and arbitration. thus it comes to a quite cyberpunk society- you don't trust any stranger by instinct you meet, but you feel very secure inside, because you know nobody is gonna fuck you around.

wife wired some usd from her Chinese bank to Revolut usd account, money confirmed out from the sender but it's been a week stuck in some process, no explanation no communication, it's fucking annoying. Financial censorship is way much worse in EU than China.

btw it's tax free to invest in china stock market. retail investors of china are so fucking maniac in startups with negative PE but making GPU, automotive chips, humanoid robots, commercial aerospace/astronomy, controlled nuclear fusion etc., that you never ever imagine could've raised such amount of capital. there's no resistance in this trend. welcome to the future.

next step of human civilization is to make air controllable by governments. a country can shutdown their air circulation with others in urgency.
