I predict Syria also having an issue with the Israelis going after Hezbollah.

The public must gain it's share of the revenue for allowing a private company to use public domain IP exclusively.

Hold a yearly auction to see who is granted rights to the property which is now the public's.

At some point race should fade away as some other trait like eye color or attached/detached ear lobes.

Having said that: if everyone who has attached lobes is being blamed for the world problems then I think you may get push back.

As an Arizona voter I'm not voting for him but there are worse people running in politics. This guy is Qanon crazy but not morally bankrupt like some others. Watch the Channel 5 with Andrew Callihan video. I guarantee the image you have in your head is different than who this guy is in reality.

Ukraine is stating almost 300k dead. There's some factor who are casualties above that that are wounded.

In the article the Russian priests are saying 1 million lost to death/wounded.

Ive seen some analyst say that dead/wounded are 1:3 in this conflict which would check the 1 million figure.

Toyota and others have been promising solid state battery tech. It's time for them to deliver yet these plants won't be ready until 2030. (If they can make it work at all.)

I wish them luck. But they are coming from the rear and have a long way to go.

Gotta find time for a rewatch of Tucker and Dale vs Evil

This poster can be seen in the Michael Jackson Thriller video, directed by John Landis, the creator of this movie.

I always thought it was a joke about how poorly made horror films were made, pure schlock, but came to find out there's a full movie behind that joke.

Rest in peace Suzanne.

Her character and the thighmaster commercial often positioned her as a punchline, but I will always appreciated her spirit which had a Dolly Parton like quality - there was only love for her.

Having said that, October 16 is her Birthday (today) which she would have been 77. Mathematically living exactly 77 years on earth. (Assuming she had lived past her birth time of day yesterday.)

These writers are on fire 🔥. After S5:E4 it gets even better. Loved the ending. Thoughts?

 

Developer be praised!

When you zoom into an image and move it to an image boundary Connect no longer exits zoom mode.

That was extremely frustrating.

 

So I found this one up by accident while watching a video. The volume control was inoperative. I exited the video and found that volume up and down now controlled page up and down. Exiting the application. The volume control returns.

Maybe this is a feature??

I'm on a Pixel 7A.

The US GDP is now $25tn vs EU GDP of $19.8tn with UK. Without the UK the EU is 50%.
