The Obamas Endorse Harris: 'This Is Going to Be Historic'
  • Just really really tiresome that the middle east drama is always injected. We know, it's a horror show.

    Now the first and most important thing is preventing don snorleone from taking the White House. Because if you think Biden is bad for the conflict there, I have a bridge I want to sell you.

  • Philippines plans to siphon off oil cargo from sunken tanker to avert ‘environmental catastrophe’
  • I hope they get a lot of international help with this, especially by specialised companies

  • Reddit blocking all major search engines, except Google
  • Reddit is asking for Europe to seem it a very large platform not that it's gatekeeping like this

  • The Destruction Team UAV unit hit three electrical substations in the Kursk region.
  • EW is unlikely to be placed at these substations. They are needed at the front enough as it is. But then Putin has a whole pantsir are defence unit protecting his datsja.

    I'd guess high voltage combined with the range from reciever.

  • US Accounting Errors Free up Extra $2 Bn for Military Aid to Ukraine
  • Again? LoL.. DoD accounting errors probably pay for all the shady stuff normally. No need for special black projects and stuff, just move the accounting errors into a slush fund and after a decade laugh at how puny the Norwegian sovereign wealth fund is.

  • The Obamas Endorse Harris: 'This Is Going to Be Historic'
  • There is a biiiig difference in the timing and source of the news. And especially in the short term every new bit of news about her should at least be treated as suspect.

  • Trump backs out of debate as camp says it's 'inappropriate to schedule things with Harris'
  • They are manufacturing chaos. The Dems don't think they are in chaos. The R's just project and therefore they say the D's are in chaos.

  • [NSFL] Russian soldier attempts to evade a skilled FPV drone pilot.
  • But these drones have a mortar shell attached to the bottom of it. So the additional weight and changed center of gravity will make it more of a challenge.

    That said, I got the pleasure of seeing one of these drone acrobats practice with one of his drones close to where I live. The thought I kept having was.. no wonder these things are so deadly.. fast, agile, and loud when close but the sound quickly dissapates when more than 20 or 30m away.

  • Donald Trump ridicules Kamala Harris’ chuckle, maybe because he almost never laughs
  • Yeah.. I saw a kamalaw & order meme video today and her laugh is wonderful. It made me smile.

  • Journalists Sue Massachusetts TV Corporation Over Bogus YouTube Takedown Demands.
  • That, and a party found to have a used the system should lose the right to use it without review. Actually I would expect google to seu them for breach of contract.

  • Russia Is Returning Ukrainian POW’s Bodies Without Internal Organs
  • Who said anything about harvesting from the dead.

  • Joe Rogan says he won't visit Canada due to Justin Trudeau's 'ridiculous free speech laws'
  • I miss the old podcast. I never knew that I wanted a long form interview with a taxidermist, a climate scientist or someone that travelled the rainforest looking for new species. But having experts in their field come on and talk about their subject showed their drive and love for their fields. The pundits where really off putting.

  • Ford misses Q2 earnings by a wide margin as EV losses reach $2.5 billion in 2024
  • Losses.. yeah. By chucking a lot of costs into a year losses can be as high as you want.

  • Donald Trump doubles down on plans to dodge next presidential debate
  • The media should crucify him for this. Call him afraid.

  • Germany shuts down Islamic Center Hamburg
  • Ah, if there are some authoritarian psychos to be defended the tankies will roll out in force. This one is extra juicy cause they can accuse everyone of being ...phobic and sprinkle on some anti Israël zionist miraca bad at the same time.

    It is good that Iran backed schools of Indoctrination are being shut down. They are given too much leeway anyway.

  • US banks to begin reporting Russian assets for eventual forfeiture under new law
  • Apparently a good law, cause if banks start complying it must have teeth.

  • Ice cream sodas

    One of the oldest icecream parlors in my city serves 1 scoop of chocolate icecream, some whipped cream in a glass topped off with coca cola.

    It's surprisingly good.

    Their other soda is lemon/lime icecream with whipped cream, some ginger and topped with gingerale.

    Excellent too especially on a warm day.

    Thought I'd share as they can be easily made at home too.

    Topambtenaar Dick Schoof is de kandidaat-premier van de nieuwe coalitie.

    Dick Schoof wil 'premier van alle Nederlanders' zijn

    Nou, voormalig NCTV en AIVD. Kan me voorstellen dat we een hoop veiligheid krijgen in ruil voor onze privacy.

    En gelukkig heeft hij als hoofd van de IND het ook een toekomstbestendige organisatie gemaakt.

    Ik ben benieuwd. En jullie?
