Hi,
Yeah what happened to we all only have 5 or 10 years to go ?
Seems people have been saying they for decades but at least once a week here on tpu.
He isn't wrong to be worried. People died related to global warming heating in my city this very year.

But that is offtopic from the subject of fabs, and the point is, enjoy the present, do what you can, and don't borrow trouble. It helps keep you sane

China doesn't spend its money in China, they spend it in the US mainly. Don't hold your breath on those miners just yet...

Make sure you wire those batteries up properly 90% of the videos online have no idea what balanced batteries are and won't last a few years and my advise would be buy yourself a good on/off grid tie in inverter so you can save some pennies till the world finally collapses.

That's what I was thinking but on the other hand they are also big of controlling their people.
But it is a very chinese thing to do. Look at the realty sector. The chinese only value the potential value of an investment, right up in bitcoin's speculative alley. One could say bitcoin is designed to get the chinese hooked.

Binance (crypto exchange platform) started banning Singaporeans after Govt. threatened them. Let's go semi-authoritarian and authoritarian assholes. Ban crypto to the moon.
