Strangely, this might be a bug. The community is on kbin.social, which my home instance is definitely federated with. Searching through the history of my kbin account from lemmy shows no posts or comments to that one specific community (!WanderingInn @kbin.social). @ljdawson, any clue about this?
The article is about unpaid rent from the covid era. You can only make the landlords take on the debt for so long before larger financial repercussions occur. The right solution would have been for the state to take it on, but that would require *gasp*socialism
I don't see how it's cheaper to maintain an entire facility and staff just to take care of unwanted items, but I concede it's a possibility, bureaucracy and inertia being what it is.
In your extensive experience, how common are unlicensed biotech R&D facilities being run in secret? And I see no reason being capable of biotech R&D would preclude it from being capable of more malicious purposes. If anything, I'd assume a significant amount of overlap between the two capabilities.
Buddy, see my username? Yeah, that's a Chinese name. I of all people know exactly what the difference is between Chinese ethnicity and Chinese nationality.
With that said, the majority of Chinese business people have some connection or other to China, be it family, business, or otherwise. Combine that with the context here of mysterious purpose (but probably bioweapons), unknown funding source and complete lack of any commercial purpose, etc etc, and it's not a hard conclusion to draw.
Chinese listed owner. Chinese representative. Mysterious purpose with unknown source of funds. Not too hard to connect the dots.
Edit: Apparently people don't realise Chinese can refer to ethnicity as well as nationality. Yes, it would be ideal if we had different terms for the two.

Innocent before proven guilty, let's not speculate unnecessarily
That looks fantastic!
Depending on your country, many places don't use wood for the structure.
Aren't communities federated or not on a instance by instance basis, though? Did I get that wrong?
Yeah, used the link to access it in the browser from my lemmy account and subscribed. It showed up in sync shortly after
No, I'm logged in. And it's a small enough instance that I'm sure nobody's messing with it or defederating it.
Is sync relying on lemmy.world even when my home instance is somewhere else? Doesn't make sense to me, but I'm not familiar with the sync architecture

Freaking everything is freaking 'AI' nowadays. The term has lost all meaning.
Why are we posting tweets instead of actual news articles?

Very similar to what? Your reddit experience is probably hugely different from mine.
I used the term Chinese to refer to ethnicity, not nationality.
