"OK… could you..."

Me? Sure. Did, as far as you mean.

I don't recommend others leave everything behind when there's no want or reason for it, though.

Common misunderstandings of travel are that you can't take your life with you, and that your life is statically limited to your possessions, job and relationships.

"...worth more to me..."

great!

flights out of the US start at 20 bucks.

hm.

don't know why Mexico is left out of that general search, but flights to Mexico are 20 bucks also:

I appreciate it, he got back to my dm too and I've already added my RSS feed via his bot. if this works you definitely are owed a case of beer!

I had no clue where to start so I am amazed that someone has set up a simple feed infrastructure for know-nothings.

thank you, that's very helpful to know. I sent him a message

thanks, I did check that out when the developer posted it and it's definitely my backup if I can't figure out how to sync my feed.

very cool that they built and shared that.

I've been able to automate most social media posts, so I'm assuming there is a way to do it with lemmy and I'm just not technically minded enough to know how yet.

that's exactly how it works. import companies are currently cancelling all the orders from China and other countries currently en route and Americans are going to pay a lot more for whatever imported stock is left within the country and then there won't be anything from other countries in the US after a week or two: produce, meat, electronics, TP and so on.

I say "US Americans" to differentiate while traveling, works well.

easy to say, easy to understand.

correct.

there's also the maybe more important scientific literature ban that is forcing scientists like those who make sure crops grow correctly in the US out of their jobs because they aren't able to talk about the gender of the seeds they are breeding.

or the physicists who can't talk about the "status" of the material they're using, because that word is banned.

countries don't want to buy American military equipment anymore because they rightly cannot trust the US, which is a huge loss of revenue.

the disastrous policies already enacted are going to economically and socially hobble the country for decades.

the scientist who goes to another country rather than the US to practice physics, agriculture, anthropology, anything, that's an entire career of innovation and scientific benefit lost to the US.

and those scientists are already avoiding the us, that's already happening.

the market numbers are the tip of the iceberg here.

A classroom assistant at the school i worked at. very hard-working, curious and funny guy who likes to learn things all the time, so we exchanged Chinese and English and hung out all the time for barbecue and hotpot and all that good stuff.

still friends more than a decade later even though I travel a lot; we got to meet up a few times when I visited Beijing last year and we still talk occasionally on wechat.

I see, yeah, the 10-year anniversary of the 2008 scandal.

good article, I'm curious what the numbers are 7 years later.

it looks like in 2018 80 to 90% of Australian baby formula was exported to China!

I found a PDF explaining the specific domestic and local market share, so even after the scandal in 2008 about half of the baby formula in China was produced and bought domestically.

of course even half of the market is a huge amount of baby formula in real life considering the population of China.

the market research data only goes up to 2017
