Europe to China. Look at a globe and not a map. Currently it mostly goes via Suez as Panama is such a long way out of the way. The Northwest passage was such a prized goal for 500 years because of trade with the far east.

That conjurers up Police Academy flashbacks.

I think you’re making the assumption that the Commander in Chief is actually commanding. One of the thing I found really scary about the Signal chat was that Stephen Miller said something along the lines of “as far as I heard him, it was a green light” and then everything kicks off. That group made it all happen based on hearsay of Trump giving a go.

…and WTF is the VP involved in the decision making of a strike for? He should be briefed, but he’s not part of the chain of command until Trump is incapacitated.

Yes.

I’m 6’5" and broad but the number of jump scares I cause is ludicrous. Most people (especially women) seem to have no situational awareness to the point where they miss gorillas approaching them.

If it’s a stranger then I’ll try to announce my approach from further away. If it’s someone I know I’ll see how high I can make them jump.

Edit: just saw you label some of these people creeps. They’re not. This is a massive green light that they don’t want to accidentally scare you.

Yeah, I’d put this article under “bad takes”. Trumps focus appears to be mining. If this was on his radar he wouldn’t be so concern about Panama as it would be made largely redundant.

Then again for these guys “the oil must flow”.

I’m not sure France is moving right. It’s moving away from the centre in both directions.

Similar in the UK

Famously, it didn’t stop the Nazis.

Gitea is where Forgejo forked from.

Ironically the US is more likely to drop the sanctions before Germany, where Codeberg is based.

Edit: They’ve gone self hosted. That makes more sense.

State TV

No. Not what I said.

There very much are law requiring archival, but now it’s been ordered in the hearings as well. This makes it much more obvious that it’s a problem.

It’s that line of “infringing on the freedom of others”. If you think it’s the government role to free people of their oppressive burdens (e.g. free them from poverty, free them from ill-heath) then concentration of wealth is “infringing on the freedoms of others”. So it needs to be regulated against.

I believe some people have been ordered to archive the chat so that it can be presented to Congress in the future. Trouble is, looking at the screenshots it’s already gone as they had the message lifetime set to a week.

I wonder if this will be seen as destroying evidence .

You emigrate to Italy and then you’ll be an immigrant from the US. One’s a verb, the other a noun.

Once you have Italian citizenship you’ll be able to live an work anywhere in the Schengen region. So a lot more options once you’re in.

Oh, and it also hallucinates.

Oh, and people believe the hallucinations.

Mark Rober showed the way. Crash Teslas in to school children.

Right, but sometimes you just need to say “I’ve read what you said. Sounds good to me. No need to keep discussing.”, especially when organising things.

Pancake day

In England those are pancakes. Flour milk egg to make a batter that you shallow fly in a pan for about minute. I serve with sugar and lemon juice.
