An Instagram video I saw (yeah I know, great source) said that the idea is to cut off oil supply to China, which was getting it from Venezuela and Iran. That the 2 events are connected is new to me, and it's surprising considering the

You make it sound like time labels like "23:59:58Z" can perform actions (e.g. to skip or "suppress"). I had to look it up: https://www.timeanddate.com/time/negative-leap-second.html . In proper word

Well, ~1 hour after the race: it got the bets correct. But it didn't expect that Piastri would crash on the way to the grid (of course, we haven't invented a future-seeing AI yet ;) ). But this is very voodoo, it's asking 3 b

Did you read the Wikipedia link above? Sheesh, 10 years of civilian use. Imagine if your mom's lived somewhere for many years, and one day the SWAT team barges in and shoots her dead because their intel showed it was a meth lab in 2016

I wonder how that happens? Do you press Ctrl-Home a lot (to go to the very start of a document), and maybe you missed and hit Fn-Home, if you have a Dell OEM keyboard https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%

The Honda collaboration "wrecked" McLaren too for several years last decade (incidentally it also featured Alonso, who complained about "GP2 engines!"). Damn, they were unbeatable for a few years with Red Bull, but it se

The ingredients for the Syrian conflict came about because of climate change (dried up farms - farmers moving to cities to find jobs - social tension). The last 10+ years has shown that the relatively well-off Europeans would rather watch t

I repeat, if a company could break the law, and escape accountability by moving the figurehead to a different department, and putting a different asshole in her place... what sort of accountability is there? I should just make a government
