The report is just repeating allegations and asking for an investigation. Did no one else read it?
It is not a finding of fact or anything similar.
The report here also does not include sources or evidence.
The current membership of the HRC is: Albania, Brazil, Bulgaria, Burundi, China, Côte d’Ivoire, Cuba, Dominican Republic, France, Ghana, Indonesia, Japan, Kuwait, Malawi and the Netherlands.
Do with that what you will.
It won’t be popular here - but that report is just a report of allegations and is also not substantiated by anything?
There is very little French spoken in New Orleans. There’s more creole, but is absolutely not used virtually anywhere as a part of daily life.
I haven’t been to Baton Rouge, but a quick googling suggests the same. It is not an official language and not part of daily life. It is heritage more than practice.
Which is what Quebec is trying to avoid.
There is very little French spoken in Louisiana. There’s more creole, but it’s still single digit percentages. It is not common and their curriculums are certainly not in French.
The entire towns website for Berlin, NH is in English: https://www.berlinnh.gov/. There’s not even a French translation.
I think you are severely overestimating the prevalence of French as an official language in North America - and even as a lingua Franca.
What other French areas in North America are you familiar with? The only one I can think of is maybe Haiti?
I’ve only ever really been to Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal and Canadian Niagara Falls. Montreal is fun and different, Toronto is like a baby NYC, Vancouver was cool but just ok. I’d go back to Montreal before I went back to any of the other places. Except in winter.
France has a whole host of laws to keep France French as well.
Quebec and Montreal are wonderful because they’re so different and yet so close.
It’s hard for me to hold a grudge against them for that. It’s not like they’re saying you must speak French to go to school there - they’re just saying you have to try to learn French if you want to go to school there.
Yeah but the tomato pureé you guys make is way more delicious than the tomato paste that comes out of tubes this guy is referring to.
Would love some sources!
Not just any keyboard and display, looks like they are gutting old Blackberry Bolds and slapped a pi zero in it.
I mean yes, they’ve stolen a lot of IP. Much of it was not transferred legally. They have a state run industrial and commercial spying program and have for decades - just like Russia.
What OP is actually referring to is the lack of industrial oversight and the Chinese penchant for using substandard material like steel and lying about it to charge a higher price while providing an inferior good.
Look up ‘tofu dreg’ construction.
It’s not western capitalists getting rich off this, it’s unscrupulous Chinese factory owners and industry magnates.
It’s also not just an export problem.
What an insane thing to repeat without any evidence.
It also benefits the upper middle class. And middle class in HCOL areas.
It should be adjusted based on cost of living.
Making $150k in NYC is like making $50k in middle america.
Hard anodized aluminum is sealed with something, often teflon.
Nope. It’s exactly the same process - it’s just Type III not type II.
The sealer is what makes it non porous. That sealer is usually teflon that wears off.
Yes, but in context:
South Korea has essentially been free of bedbug issues since the 1970s when the government implemented insecticides all across the country resulting in just nine bedbug cases reported in the last decade, according to the Ministry of Disease Control and Prevention Agency
9 in 10 years to 30 is an astronomical jump.
He’s going to have to do something, they’re going to have their own economic issues to deal with…
Hasn’t their economy already shrunk by 5% since the war began?
Seems like they’re going to become a vassal state of China.
That is neither evidence nor a source.
