Do you ever think about the fact that Wikipedia is the last good major website on the internet? You aren't bombarded with ads. It doesn't try to push video on you, and it doesn't redirect you to a scam site.

Verjeli ali ne, ogromno ljudi še vedno misli, da so električni avti v primerjavi z bencinskimi in deizelskimi enako slabi glede vpliva na podnebje. Fizika izkoristkov ni povsem intuitivna, količine umazanih (in neetično pridobljenih) rudnin pa težko predstavljive in primerljive z nafto.
Najnovejša študija organizacije ICCT ugotavlja, da so izpusti električnega vozila v celotni življenjski dobi za vsaj 73 odstotkov nižji kot vozila z motorjem na notranje zgorevanje, izenačijo pa se že po 17 tisoč prevoženih kilometrih.

Peter Thiel Shows Trump How To Sort Spreadsheet Of Americans By Ethnicity
WASHINGTON—Stressing that it would be simplest to troubleshoot now during the onboarding process for his company’s surveillance technology, Palantir founder Peter Thiel reportedly spent Tuesday morning showing President Donald Trump how to sort a spreadsheet of Americans by ethnicity. “So what’s neat is that you can just do command-shift-E and rank every single resident from […]

Reality truly is stranger than fiction lately 😏
So the sequence is this:
1. 1953. The CIA and MI6 stage a coup and install this bloke's dad in place of a prime minister who was more-or-less democratically elected and who introduced good social reforms that the USA and UK didn't like.
Like it was their business.

And Trump has now admitted that he gave access to high level government secrets to a man he believes to be a big time drug addict.
