  • Ok, so if both of these hypothetical parties fully and completely, without reservation, support the invasion (or let’s call it what it is, war) then there is not a lot you can do.

    But it turns out one party has no problems with that invasion/war and supports it. Heck, they even tell others who protest the invasion to just accept it all as a fact and just deal and live with it. Also calls to surrender parts of your land because the leader of the invasion is having a certain ‘grip’ on the party leader.

    The other party is lacking in action to change this outcome but has shown signs that they do not like the invasion but need to get/stay in power to try and stop the madness. But to get elected they cannot come out and say “we will stop the invasion” because that is a death-knell to their goal to be elected and in power.

    As you see or can probably understand, you are not dealing with parties per-se, you are dealing with the populace who get to vote for either party. Navigating that populace to get elected is a tricky and a risky thing, before you know it you blew you chances and the other party wins.

    This is truly the case of voting for the party who has some semblance of being able to do the right thing, even if it is late or voting for the party who has clearly signaled to be 100% against what you hope and stand for.

    Best bet in this case is to vote for hope and possibility, not the surefire way the other party wants to dig a much, much deeper hole which will be infinitely more difficult to crawl out of.

    There is no easy solution, only thing we have is choosing the ones who show a flicker of hope in doing better. Good luck!











  • This absolute nonsense. Max should push this issue by not complying (maybe even add a little “fuck yous” in the message). What are they going to do? Whatever the next step would be, just ignore and do not comply.

    Force the hand of the FIA to show them for what they are : idiots gatekeeping nonsense. This does nothing for the sport and it is a non-issue.

    Some part of me feels this is a consequence of an American company owning F1 now and implementing these BS actions that seem to be normal in US sports. I was afraid that this mentality would come to F1 and here we are…



  • I seem to remember vaguely that iOS 18 was supposed to have a feature but was left out in the end. I do not mean the AI stuff, there was some other major part. Something like handoff but not handoff. I completely forgot what it was and searched online but searching without knowing what to search is a…challenge :-)

    Anybody here have any clue what it was or am I imagining things?
