  • They never trusted their company to make it through the month?

    Companies in China flop all the time, probably act this way because of their learned experience.

    Or they never trusted themselves to have anything left after the weekend?

    My parents were the type to always save.

    They claim that Americans (they mean Americans that are not of Asian descent) cant afford anything because they always spend they entire paycheck at some bar and just constantly depend on their next paycheck in order to have money.

    They own a house in Philly... and then they look at the renters and was like: "Hey son, you see all these people renting? It's because they're lazy and don't work and/or they waste money gambling or doing drugs, don't be like those people"

    And then once my depression became a thing... they say that "America turned me lazy"... bruh its called depression jesus christ mom, do you want me to kms ffs

  • Do you think every generation thinks their time growing up was the best?

    Jump

  • My parents (and their parents) certaintly think my generation is better than theirs.

    The summary is this: They lived in post WW2 Rural China, I get to live in the 21st century and also get to grow up mostly in the US... mom said her family money situation growing up was kinda shitty, in contrast she said in my childhood, I got to not worry about starving... they had rationing system...

    Parents were born in mid- 1960s to mid- 1970s

  • In cultures where marriage is a social obligation and arranged marriages are common, marriage feels like those group projects in school.

    Jump

  • I think it's because: "If love wasn't the reason to get into a marriage, then lack if love wouldn't be the reason to get out of a marriage" (I read this from some random forum/website and it actually make so much sense).

    In Traditional Chinese marriage, they look at practical stuff like if they have the wealth, housing, career, to raise children... that sort of stuff... love is secondary ti those things...

    So in my parents time, people of marriage age would just get introduced to those who are also of marriage of the opposite sex. And like if they feel okay with it, they just settle and get married.

    I think once I ask my mom why she went with my dad, she said something like "he doesn't smoke, he doesn't gamble, he doesn't drink"... like... lol...

    I feel like a lot of people in China have those aforementioned problems.

    They're still married to this day... I doubt they have much sex besides for procreation so like... probably only those 2 times creating my older brother then me....

    My mom is kinda scary tho, she once went full tiger mom mode and threatened to divorce my dad... because some stupid disagreement... and I was a teen during that time... kinda messed up my mood... I mean that feels world shattering if it happens... so... luckily it never did.

  • Nothing to described is unheard of in Canada/the States. I’m kind of waiting for the “SIKE I WAS DESCRIBING THE US ALL ALONG” but figured I’d comment in case it was useful to anyone.

    This isn't some trick question. I was born in Guangzhou, China. My knowledge of these employement stuff from my parents experiece in Taishan and Guangzhou (there as Taishan Hukou-holder migrant workers, so basically second class residents), as as for the US, its from Brooklyn-NY and Philly...

    Which might be kinda limited in scope...

    Its kinda interesting both US and China has these "grass greener on the other side" type of people...

    We as a species are so similar no matter where we come from

  • Is rural America different?

    My immediate family has only been to Brooklyn-NYC, and Philly

    So maybe my experiences are limited... 🤷‍♂️

    When your parents are on the phone, how often did you just start staying stuff for attention (or because you're bored)?

    Jump

  • Damn y'all have even more fucked-up parents.

    Like every time I feel frustrated with my relationship with my parents, I go online and read the internet about shitty parents, and I always felt a relief that like at least my shitty parents are so much nicer variant of shitty

  • Its a reflective on memories... since like this shit is so fucked... I mean we only get like... what... 50-100 years here and forever die?

    So yeah, idk why I asked this question...

    Honestly when you get an existential crisis... the idea of "cringe" and "shame" doesn't even fucking matter anymore...

    You cannot avoid death...

    Embarassing moments and stupid quesrions doesn't matter.

    Memories are already fading away, and nostalgia is just reliving moments in space time that can not truely be re-lived again...

    Sorry if I sound cringe af, but the male brain doesn't fully develop until 25, so I got like over a year before I could even scientifically considered "mature" or whatever that's supposed to mean...

    TLDR: Just remembering childhood moments... the adult world is cruel, wars, oppression, corruption, injustice... don't mind me, feel free to ignore this post.

  • Average people need their phone service to work...

    I tried using LineageOS on a motorola phone and I get zero data...

    So... Yeah.... I doubt the average person has time for troubleshooting this shit...

    Also those phones require specific devices, you cant just flash random linux into your current phone.

    Now look up "carrier whitelisting"

    so yeah... good luck trying to get a carrier to allow you to use an "unapproved" device on their network...

  • As for the privacy issue:

    The only counter to this is to move to a closed end-to-end encrypted groupchat so it can't be mass LLM analyzed...

    If you want a public forum, well... its public...

    You can't stop a script from just grabbing all the posts/comments... and its also federated, so the bot only needs to be able to access one instance and get it...

    I mean they could simply just set up their own instance and pretend its just a benigh single-user instance... like what are you gonna do, defed all small instances preemptively? Use "login walls" to make the forum private? And somehow trust all other admins that are federated and make them also enforce a "login wall" policy?

    Its a PUBLIC forum...

    the only solution for privacy is a groupchat and only let in people that can keep a promise to not screenshot everything and give it to a LLM.
