I'm imagining an alternate timeline now, wherein Texas and Hong Kong seceded at the same time, and Hong Kong is just immediately annexed by Texas because Britain didn't want them and Texas was a good enough second choice for Imperial Daddy. Hong Kong is reabsorbed back into China and Texas back into the USA within about a month tops, the incident fades into obscurity, and within two decades history YouTubers make videos presenting Texan Hong Kong as a zany did-you-know

The worst part of this timeline is YouTube still existing in 20 years.

By that point you'll need a minimum 64-core CPU, 2TB of QDR16 RAM, 5gb/s fiber downlink, four instances of Google™ TrustedWeb™ ChromeNext™ running in parallel to compile and execute the 1.2GB of tracking and adserving javascript in realtime, and at least one 3D capable 8k webcam cryptographically paired with your GoogleAds™ PartnerInnovationsAI™ account to guarantee the Sponsors (praise be upon them) receive unfaltering eye contact and attention (note: blink detection will still be buggy and you may occasionally be blocked from all internet access as determined by the AI for bot-like behavior, the technology to ensure better accuracy just isn't there yet).
