    Predicting the Future

    Yep - bombs was but one possible example as a cover-all. The outcome is the same, regardless. Examples: We could easily trigger an irreversible ecological disaster that has a domino effect. Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) - larger than the Carrington Event, potentially could burn out the power...

    US Election November 5th

    Putin has been in touch with the President-Elect already to congratulate. Released information indicates that an end to the war in Ukraine would be the aim of the adjudicated rapist and multiple felon - the two agreeing "Terms" under which war could be ended. Zelensky has expressed "concern"...

    I'm in a similar spot to you. The questions aren't very sophisticated, as you say, and I doubt it gets an accurate picture - because human nature.

    So you agree that the writer is a right wing diatribe merchant. From the USA. Does it not then follow that if the UK-US Special Relationship was under threat that it is this very type of person that would be propagating that message in the US right wing media? What it illustrates is, from the...

    <Chuckle> Moebius strip. Only one side. I know you meant that, and I approve. (y) I meant that *the first time* I wrote it, it can't have been dèja vû. Because it hadn't happened twice yet. So the first time I wrote it can't have been hindsight. The dèja vû happened afterwards > about me...

    After the bombs drop. The humans who will survive are those tucked away in the desert and the rainforest. Western society has virtually zero hope of any significant human survival rate.

    Yep, I'm quite sure. It's exactly what I wrote first time around. Hindsight is symmetrically the opposite.

    "We'll just have to wait and see" I think I just had dèja vû.

    I'd also add that the *people who pointed out that Brexit was so very clearly obviously going to fail* do not wield any power to make it fail. Saying that it is those people's fault that Brexit is a failure is so clearly absurd it is beyond preposterous. Not unlike Liz Truss telling her...

    My Woodwork Journey is about to begin - Total Beginner - I may need your advice.

    Just needed to pop up on here and give a public shout out to Ashley at Whitmore Timber. Thanks Ashley (y) I saw Whitmore is a trader on here - made contact with them to ask about timber on Monday - Ashley provided some advice - I made an inexpensive order - and received it today with a...

    Thanks - your link led me to this parallel BBC article: Seven things Trump says he will do I think I now understand Musk's involvement. 60% tariff on China is gonna make Tesla vehicles far more attractive than the Chinese opposition to USA consumers. (It'll also badly affect the US Economy...

    I'm not the expert. I'll leave it the the folks who get paid to do it as a job to make the right predictions. For the future, that is... I can report on the past, though, because evidence and detail is available. A quick look at representative markers for UK Economic stability - the...

    Kneeler also represents the implication of being "woke" - and that signals to the "anti-woke" brigade/culture wars propagators that Starmer is "not of our clan" and is thus being othered. The statement of it being a "fact" is a probable deflection and a probable intentional lie to hide the true...

    LOL We all intrinsically know that it wasn't true. It wasn't true at the time. It wasn't true when investigated several times. It still isn't true today. However, what becomes painfully obvious is that fact that it isn't true just doesn't matter to some folks. I'm not wired up to be able to...

    Which is it? Do you read it and then make a (poor) judgement that it's "opinionated" (ie - lack of diligence/don't or won't verify for yourself?) Or do you not read it and therefore don't know and therefore cannot verify that it's "opinionated"? (ie - avoid stuff that might disagree with your...

    Oh my. Second bit first - I remember something very, very different to what you have written. (I'm a details and evidence guy, remember?) I distinctly remember that there was absolutely nothing at all suspect or irregular about voter numbers. I also remember that Trump CLAIMED that there...

    Dunno! Do I? Might be because I'm a details and evidence guy?
