Russell’s Teapot.

The UK born wife and kids are in Russia, presumably je will head there via… somewhere and has a stash of cash available

And uet its worked many times on the past, it’s the entire reaon for non violent protest. Ghandi, Malcom.X, Henry David Thoreau etc etc.

Personally i think she shoukd be gifted Buckingham Palace and kick the current shit bags out

The same way Apple, Microsoft and Adobe etal did, steal ideas from others and refine it, as Bill Gates himself noted.

Ruthless espolitation of the working class and then portected from said working class by armed guards (ploice) and their apparatchik (judical system) , paid for mostly by the working classes.

Eastern Eurooe hasn’t and they’re currently acting as a buffer from it spreading further west, which it seems likely western and central Eurooe are happy to allow if you pay attention to how they vote.

Of course then their are the exports, France doing a bang up job of using organsied violence in places like New Caledonia etal.

A cold blooded murder

Did people see how Obhma acted when Osama was killed ?

a bad guy who "deserved it " ?

V2G and V2H is here, so you’ll be able to store there and draw down overnight in a suitable ecar.

A large pumped hydro in Qld has been cancelled by the new Lib government, so won’t be able to store it there. Snowy Hydro pumped storage is way behind schedule and locally Redflow went backrupt, so huge Zinc Flow storage batteries arent available to rollout to store excess energy and Lithuim is a shitty choice for large grid batteries.

but also makes clear that simply replacing gasoline with batteries won’t be enough: cities must also dramatically curtail the use of automobiles and avoid “locking in” future emissions with more car-dependent infrastructure.

Here in rural Australia a friend has a farm and has a sideline raising and training working dogs. He regularly shoots the ones who he says have the wrong temperament. It happens often, as in monthly or so. If one of his own working dog is too old and can’t keep up (he has 3 or 4 at any one time) , or it is injured, same thing. I suspended it’s fairly ubiquitous in rural areas.

Because it worked to get them where they are… So they keep doing it. Ostensibly Germany’s not sending Taurus precisely because of this.

I use Organic Maps these days but just fired Osmand up to test and it was near instantaneous and located me when it opened. Samsung S22u

I havent done anything to setting etc that I am aware, it has been on my phones for a long time (and came across from my previous Samsung Note 9) so I may have done something back in the day.
