#FreeFrom （ #飞飞 ） 的最大优势在于它解决了其他Nostr（#诺斯特）平台的“全球”页面上无数的垃圾广告问题。它的全球页面可以选择你的语言，这样可以将原本非常少的 #中文 用户的帖子集中起来，而且遇到垃圾广告的情况也已经非常少了。太👍了！ 相比较而言，其他的几个应用在这一点上都没有作任何处理，使得 “全球” 页面变得无法使用，这是限制中文用户加入的最大的障碍。所以 #飞飞 在这一点上是超过了其他几个平台。现在，任何 #达摩 或 #紫水晶 用户都可以直接用原来的账号使用 #飞飞 感觉现在的诺斯特有点像当年的电子邮箱了，只要是你的 #电子邮箱，你可以在任何平台上查看和收发电子邮件。太喵了！

中国的地价是虚幻，因为中国土地属于政府，凡是由政府垄断的资源，其价格均与市场经济无关，你想象房子跌一半似乎很低了，因为你不知道九十年代房地产价格仅为现在的8％左右。价格涨上去全凭政府操纵地价，与产业能力无关。要抄底至少要等到房价下跌95％。

My behavior on nostr is still on and off, here and there, somewhat like that on X (Twitter), but actually I am thinking of establishing an #English learning website for #Chinese speaking learners around the world. It's my wish that all can communicate in English. Am not sure if people would support the idea. 我在这个平台上仍然不是特别活跃，有点像在原推特平台上的状态。其实，我在考虑为全球的 #中文 使用者建立一个 #英语学习 的网站。我一直希望人们能够使用英语交流。不知大家会不会支持我这个想法。

“在日本烧外国国旗是违法”纯属谣言。 New rumors regarding burning of national flags are becoming spiral in social media in #China. Rumor source pretends to be an expert in Japan and tells followers that burning flags in these countries are illegal and subject to jail terms and fines, which is a sheer lie. The actual fact is: burning national flags of any countries is a form of freedom of speech. This includes Japan, USA, Norway, Sweden, Belgium, Canada, New Zealand, the countries named by the rumor spreader. Here are the screenshots of ChatGPT chats:

The funniest thing about my learning is how the age dynamics between my teachers and myself over the years. At primary school, my teachers were mostly my parents’ age or older; at high school, my teachers were mostly my parents age; at higher educational institution, my teachers were mostly my parents age; after graduation, my teachers were about my age; even later, my teachers were about my age or younger; lately, my teachers were much younger; now, my teachers’ parents are about my age. However, I am still learning. Why? One has to get updated knowledge and skills to keep abreast and make their lives meaningful and interesting.

Deep in myself, there is always a strong sense of insecurity. Life has never been easy in my opinion. Why? Because there is absolutely no fairness in China, where I came from. I always have to work ten time harder and smarter or even more to achieve what others may easily gain. I used to see social media engagement as part of my activism, but once I realized it didn’t serve any purpose, my time spent on social media has significantly reduced. Now I only stay on social media when I need some relaxation from my work and study. Oh, yes, I am still a tireless learner, who keep taking courses of various kinds, most of which have been rather useless. Learning is a way to calm myself down and to boost my self-confidence.

While there are very few active users on this platform, I don't want to run to an individual owned controlled commercial messaging platform to gab, nor do I like polycentric platforms that claim to be decentralized while still block users for what the robot deployed by the platform thinks inappropriate, mostly out of ignorance only. Of course this means that not many people see what I have to say. Still, I'm not a big enough person nor do I expect to earn on traffic flow, so this place does count as a nice place where I can post whatever I like. 虽然这个平台上的活跃用户很少，但是我不希望跑到一个私人开设的受控的商业说话平台上叽叽喳喳，也不喜欢假装的去中心化却仍然可以封号的多中心化平台。当然这意味着没什么人看到我的发言。不过，我也不是什么大人物，也不希望赚流量，所以，这个地方确实算不错了，我可以随意发自己喜欢的东西。

真正的自由必然是平等的，只要存在著不平等，哪怕只是一個人與所有人之間的不平等，那麼這個社會就不會有自由。例如一個帝國，因為其帝王超越於其他人也超越法律，因此，這樣的帝國裡，所有其他人就都沒有自由的保障，這是最早擺脫帝國體制的數個國家走向共和或君主立憲制的的原因。中國絕無例外。 結論：自由必有平等，只有人人平等的社會才是自由社會，否則自由就只是虛偽的的幌子。 但這裡的自由必是法律下的自由，平等也必是法律下的平等。自由與平等是法治的基石，任何法必須以此為基礎和原理，這才有了「違憲審查」一說，不遵循自由平等的國家不存在違憲審查機制。 #Freedom #Equality #RuleOfLaw View quoted note →

VOA reports on Taiwanese as “Chinese” as a result of many years of smart repression operations against people by Chinese government. It’s found reporting a 45yo Taiwanese as a Chinese: 🙁美国之音使用中国共产党的语言，将台湾人称作中国人，这就是“智慧型镇压”所起到的效果: The report says that five gun men hijacked a Cambodian Dentist clinic, where a Chinese drug criminal sentenced 52 years in prison, who was about to be treated under the supervision of four police officers, and successfully took the prisoner away. The patient, who.had claimed to have tooth pain and couldn’t eat, was sent there for an appointed treatment. Cambodian government says it has seized six suspects. But the prisoner is still at large. The government refuses to make further comments about the case. Dentist says the gun men dashed into his clinic and put police officers under control, by tying up their hands in the back. No one was hurt in the incident. They drove away in an SUV. Somewhere away, police found the SUV where they found guns and ammunition . 枪手袭击柬埔寨牙医诊所，劫走服刑中的中国囚犯

I was a bit taken aback by the incorrect headline tweeted from the official account of the Associated Press . I couldn’t believe my eyes. I read the story, and then confirmed my conclusion with a DeepL translation. Does it mean anyone could be an Associate Press social media editor?🤪

#China #中国 新华社发文说美国对女犯人实施注射处死的宣传实际上是骗 #中国人 的。新华社引用的其实是来自三级片的片段，这个片子名为“致命注射”。 中国为了宣传美国的不好真可谓挖空心思！它们的新闻从业人员真的是太敬业了，不愧为政府的看门狗。可能死了都不知道自己连狗都不如！ Though the report from Huffpost depicts the incident as a‘mistake’, it is not. It’s the deliberate attempt of their long term smearing campaign against the USA, but they can’t access the truth they wanted, because it didn’t and doesn’t exist in reality.

Chinese Officials Mistake Porn Film Scenes For American Execution

Chinese officials mistakenly posted images from a pornographic film thinking they were depicting an American execution.

AI is a great tool but also a cold mirror. My writing skill, which scored 28/30 in a Toefl test many years ago only seems the weakest link now among the four skills, such an unpleasant realization. It’s no exaggeration to say that learning English has to be a lifelong commitment for a non-native English speaker.

后苏联侵略乌克兰一年多了，美元对卢布官方价格现在是1:100，据说黑市价是它的三倍；刚开始的时候，卢布还假装涨了一点点，完全是哄中国领导人的。历史上，中国对卢布大约是1:4。这么说，是不是要恭喜人民币升值25倍或75倍了呢？😄

#China has fallen into a psycho-political funk ——Fragile consumer confidence is just one sign of a malaise that is not merely economic #中国 陷入心理政治大恐慌之中 ——消费信心的脆弱是一种超越经济领域的不安全感的表现 “狡猾的苏式玩笑悄悄地在中国的社交媒体平台上复活。它们的艺术性隐藏在极深的微妙之中，使得监控无法察觉，但对于懂得其中的讥讽的人来说，足以明白到让人捧腹。” 直到最后，笑话被人工删除，然后人们就通过删帖封号知道了他们知道了…… 这些黑色幽默透露出对经济的无奈，对政治的失望和恐惧。自2023年7月，中国经济正式进入衰退期：消费下降，而习政权开始大谈经济刺激计划，但其实根本无力扭转，原本世界指望中国今年为经济增长贡献35%和为亚太地区的经济增长贡献67%的。 化名王宁的在北京就职的技术顾问，虽然月收入平均达35，000，却也选择节衣缩食，将在外就餐控制在每周一千元以下。他自己对政治、经济、工作和局势都有着悲观的预估。
