Like two days ago someone posted cell phone subscriber data from 2 of China's largest providers, IIRC they lost 13+ million customers in a month or so.
Edit: 13 million combined

You mean this? What on earth could cause such a massive drop in subscribers?

As we fuck up more ecosystems and humans live in close contact in huge numbers, the chances of us a. Encountering such viruses and b. Them crossing the species barrier and then c. A transmission chain arising increases every year.

This won’t be our last plague.

Years ago I read a book called Plague's Progress . I'm sure it's very dated now, but it stuck with me, and I've unsurprisingly being thinking a lot about it recently. The book has two main points:
1) Major diseases have social historical impact. The Black Death in ending feudalism, the Plague of Justinian opening the door for Islam.
2) New major diseases appear when humans make a big change to the world, or breach a barrier of some kind. E.g settling the New World.

He stated that Globalism would produce a new plague, it was only a question of when.

TBH, I vaguely remember someone saying that Dec 2019 was when people could start transferring their numbers between telecom companies, and that the reduction was largely due to people cancelling their redundant accounts.

Don't know if it's just propaganda, or if's really that, but I think the truth probably lies on a sliding scale in there.

From the comments comes the truth:

This is literally just an excuse to drop their bandwidth costs. The internet is holding up fine but all these companies are suddenly paying a lot more due to the massive increase in volume. They already operate on tight margins so this is eating into their profits.

There is ZERO reason for them to drop resolutions down beyond trying to save themselves from a much larger then normal backhaul bill.
 
Am I being whooshed? I've never heard that Guernica was a bureacratic mistake. Did Picasso paint about a paperwork oopsie?
Deliberate bombing of civilians by fascists is how this is taught in the Anglo world.
Wiki on Guernica
No you haven't been wooshed and fuck you've made me check and now I got no clue what to think.

I gave the narration I was taught in school but... yeah it doesn't seem to stand up to fact checking sources. Some of our history books still claim Franco was not a dictator so I guess I should get used to rechecking everything I learned in school.

Rationalization they gave for the painting was that it simply represented the massacre, so yeah I guess they told us it was about a woopsy.

I'm kind of out of words I did not expect to have facts from school challenged this clearly by the facts this late in life. I thought I'd learn to spot the bullshit (we have religion class in school so there's a lot of bullshit at times...) I'm sorry I guess.
 
You guys just don't get it, Pangolins were behind the rape of Nanjing so the street shitting chinks are just doing their part to stop those evil fucks.

Now I'm rethinking if Japan did anything wrong. Too many SJWs trying to deplatform artists and authors in Japan who didn't fall on the sword to the HORRIFIC CHINK HOLOCAUST 6 GORGILLION DEAD that was Nanjing. Given what this all has revealed about China's PR efforts... fuck, is there even a town NAMED Nanjing?
 
Now That's What I Call Music! Has a new album out....


So it's a gag, obviously but a bit of humour helps.

If anyone's never come across them before, Now That's What I Call Music! Is a compilation album that's been popular in the UK for a good 37 years, and 30 years in the USA.
 
also, how long before being an activist for preventing the consumption of pangolins is considered racist?

tfw, there are still mongoloids on this board, who would use N95 dust mask (without eye protection either most likely) over reusable gas mask - something that works better and is actually cheaper for period longer than 2-3 days. For extra bonus - gas masks are actually obtainable right this moment for people, who failed to prep.

Hmm, I had a look on amazon.co.uk and you're right. You can get a reusable mask delivered in a couple of days. With a bit of luck, the current mandatory lockdown for a few weeks will cause the number of new cases per day to level off and start to fall but I guess it doesn't hurt to have a mask if it all goes to shit and the number of new cases keeps growing despite the lockdown.

I posted this earlier but the thread has gotten so huge you probably missed it.
Googles top paying customers for ad revenue are booking and tourism. But their is no tourism anymore obviously.
Since ad revenue is Google's top source of income they will be bleeding money for months.

They were globohomo anyways so i doesn't surprise me or bother me that they are gonna bleed money from this.
 
Any estimates on what's actually going on in China. Estimates by anyone who isn't on the CCP's payroll, that is.
TBH, I vaguely remember someone saying that Dec 2019 was when people could start transferring their numbers between telecom companies, and that the reduction was largely due to people cancelling their redundant accounts.

No I believe this is accurate. China is fucking anal about its use of total control of you and your information. This is there version of a social security number. It is incredibly hard to get rid of. This is what I was told so seeing this shit pop up make perfect sense.

Remember Radio Free Asia very early on stated that there was over 150 thousand dead... That was over 2 months ago.

Again 7 million, 14 million, 20+ million is a drop in the bucket for the Chinese population of 1.4 billion people And the death rate even with those numbers is under 2%. Which is more or less accurate (probably lower though) enough when you compare the death rates to the western world.

This is why the governments are not telling you the truth on things. The death rate of that size, due to them being shit monkeys is appalling.

Again THIS IS CHINA

THEY LIE,
THEY STEAL,
THEY EAT ANYTHING.

They are a fucking filthy ignorant people that does not care about anyone expect saving face and GREED.
 
Was listening to the radio during one of my middle of nowhere drives on business.

One of the guys filling in for rush limbaugh (Todd howard) suggested we throw the youth into the viral fray to build herd immunity to save the economy and keep the older population safe. According to him and his "expert" guest ,theres a zero percent chance of death for those under 30.
Though I think this is assuming a health care system that isnt about to collapse.

I thought the few numbers we got out of china disproved much of this as a viable solution.

Unbelievably in Coventry, the Foleshill Plod had to break up a BBQ as 20 people decided that Day 1 of lockdown was to go hang out.

Anything critical of China should be archived. Especially if it's on sites like Twitter or on sites hosted in countries China constantly tries to call part of it. Precious information and history is at stake here. Even if this has nothing to do with deaths, there'll be records of what people thought at this point in time.
