The countries that get that ball rolling first will have a massive advantage. AI and humanoid robots have a massive push behind it right now.

There is a reason why Epstein and Maxwell haven't talked. Guess what happens to Maxwell as soon as Republicans think she will talk?

She is also only willing to testify after her appeals are resolved — which could take months or even years.

She also will not speak to congressional investigators in the federal prison in Florida where she is currently incarcerated

It's easy to get caught up in it. That's why it's been working for decades.

The answer is some politicians don't. Talk about them. Don't comment too much on noise. 97% of politics is distraction.

Someone explained it a while back. Politicians won't legalize it nationwide because they know people will still vote for them. Which is exactly what has been happening for years.

If they legalize it their reelection chances go down.

That is why people can't have nice things. It's a popularity contest but not for the people. It's for the politicians. 77 million Republican voters thought Trump in office again was a higher priority than low priced legal weed.

I think Google has stepped up efforts against Firefox. User agent switching has helped but if I'm in a hurry I use Vivaldi, Kiwi, or Chrome.

Chinese electric vehicle manufacturer BYD surpassed Tesla last year to become the world’s top-selling E.V. brand and is expected to pull even with the world’s biggest carmakers, Toyota and Volkswagen, by 2030.

Nation wide workers strike? Is this a thing? Asking for a friend in USA? /s

Seems like it?

Seems like it worked just fine the last time Trump was President. Seems like millions of people forgot.

It's ok for people to be stupid. It's not ok for stupid people to be dangerous.

Wilful ignorance is dangerous. It's not a difference of political opinion.

It's because the scary Boogeyman has to be relevant. USA needed people to get onboard with current wars, not old wars.

There were also plenty of movies about the scary Russians too in that specific political time.
