Pub and banks have been disappearing from communities rather rapidly over the last 20 - 30 years. With pubs its because fewer people are drinking and its cheaper to buy your drinks from a supermarket or an off-licence. Communities in London

I remember seeing their first RISC machine, the Archimedes at a computer show. Everyone thought RISC was going to be the future of computing because it was just so fast. Eventually it was I guess but x86 delayed it for a while.

Fundamentally yes you are. Making money comes down to managing your risk. Cutting your losses quickly and riding your winners.

It quite the Darwinian experiment isnt it. Thousands of new videos every day, some get popular, get copied and a new trend emerges. Before you know it millions are watching and it didnt even cost that much to do. Legacy TV companies must b

I dont know how popular Giant Bomb is as a site, but in general video game journalism online is pretty much in the doldrums. Most of the big players from the last 20 years seem to have either disappered or are cutting staff back to the bare

This is going to be a test of the "new improved" post Doge USDA. We'll see how well it copes with a real agricultural crisis with reduced staffing and funds.

How inflationary (or not) will this be. Will just switch to domestic products or will they just reduce consumption overall.

It's going to put a lot of goods out of the reach of poorer people. If there's an alternative source at the same prices I haven't seen it.

I read that there are basically 2 types of people that voted for Trump. People who wanted him to improve the economy and people that just enjoy the cruelty.

He's signalling to the Trump regime this time. "Look I'm not woke now". All it does is make him look like an opportunist that doesn't believe in anything except money. The first mission of any Democrat government sh

He doesn't need to pretend to care about social issues anymore under Trump, in fact it's probably a disadvantage. It may may him look too "woke". I'm sure if the Democrats ever get back in power, we'll see anot

No Hyper-economy, like China or the EU is going to stand about and take what seems like economic intimidation from the US. All the unaffiliated nations are going to be collateral damage in this clash of the economic titans. The best thing e

If the objective is to scare people off from going to the USA, then they're doing a magnificent job. I've heard other cases of people with green cards being arrested and put in terrible conditions, with absolutely no reason given.

I have actually been listening to the Beatles back catalog, and its incredible. The musical invention and diversity is unlike any individual group I've ever heard. I love Motown, but honestly, if you've heard one 4 Tops song, you&

The F35 is better, but they're not going to trust or give business to the US anymore. The Typhoon, Rafale and Grippen are good enough, so we'll see more purchases of those.

There isnt the slack in the US labor force to rebuild the manufacturing base. Not without significant inflationary pressure. Especially with the hostility towards migaration.

The EU didnt take the threat seriously because they couldnt comprehend Putin jeapordising trade relationships with the rest of Europe. Putin in turn thought that Europe would roll over like they did with Crimea, they'd also be scared t

Thats some rather eyewatering pricing, considering you could probably roll your own model these days.

In Europe the UK were the only nation to take the Russian threat seriously, they trained and armed the Ukrainians as best they could. France was trying diplomatic means to persuede Russia to curtail it hostilities. Germany just ignored them

This was the reason that was given 8 years ago the last time Trump was in power. We couldnt understand why the US public werent packing the streets in protest,like they would have in France or Germany or Italy. And the same reason was given

Another nightmare scenario. If the EU has to fly combat missions against Russians in Ukraine and the US decides that in the "interests of peace" to deactivate European F35s. Not a possiblity that can be dismissed.

A weaker US defence establishment would be something that the Russians and other enemies of the US could only dream about a few years ago. Its suddenly becoming a reality.
