311·2 months agoChinese, and to a lesser extent Asian Big Tech is what American Big Tech dreams and aspires to.
Everything is intimately linked to the super app platforms WeChat/Alipay (China) or LINE/Kakao Talk (Japan and Korea). Nearly everything online is designed primarily with WeChat/Alipay plugins/mini apps as the primary entry point and it is not uncommon both many services/pages to simply not exist outside of these super app ecosystems.
The apps are super invasive with privacy and require identity documents and banking details to even function. To some extent, it has resulted in convenience for the locals, though tbh this is mostly just replicating the convenience of western infrastructure like payment systems.
Where it gets messy is dealing with foreigners. China is particular has an incredibly messy system of regulations, mostly to curb money laundering and capital controls, that interact in very unforeseen ways.
Foreigners must link their identity documents and a payment method. Many vendors (either due to laziness or laws) cannot deal with foreigners at all. Additionally, due to capital controls, foreign payment methods cannot transfer or receive money. Many smaller vendors only accept payment via personal transfers, so you can easily end up being unable to pay, or split bills with locals. The inability to receive money also means you can’t receive refunds.
It gets way worse when interacting with HK/Macau, which operate their own, distinct parallel WeChat/Alipay systems. So, not only do you need to set up and maintain separate accounts for these, doing so may still be of limited use due to capital controls. A common trip around the Pearl Delta region covering Shenzhen, HK, and Macau unironically requires planning out a convoluted chart of which specific systems and accounts you need to use.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do you use the "uno reverse card"?
51·2 months agoYes. Most people I’ve played with do some variant of the super stacker ruleset.
All draw cards function as a skip your own turn and add to the draw stack. Skip and reverse can also function as passing the stack to someone else. This adds an additional element of risk/reward, do you play a scarce action card to pass the large stack at the risk of it backfiring and you possibly receiving an even larger draw stack, or do you just take the draw now?
The variants were popular enough that the UNO Facebook page has officially suggested them, for what it’s worth.

Who is Sarah and where are the videos of her toning her body
Why are they called pussups and not bussups?
Doom is Turing complete FYI, so if it wasn’t for the inherent limitations on the number of gates due to small map size Doom would be able to run Doom
But can DOOM run it? - https://calabi-yau.space/blog/doom.html
From the manufacturer’s point of view all they see/hear from big tech is “these fridge ads are very effective, see this guy who bought a fridge as evidence.”
Not just influencers. EdTech, including Khan Academy, is pushing AI to make virtual versions of historical figures to engage students.




Surprised no one has mentioned Suwayomi yet for manga.
There’s a Mihon extension that treats Suwayomi as an additional “source” with progress syncing as well.
