Black Mirror X Minority Report IRL: It's not surprising that Black Mirror originated in England.

The world should stop generating endless empty vanity rhetoric to look good and should stop buying Russian fossils. Even states that sanctioned Russia, provide Russia with more money to continue the war than Ukraine gets to fight Russia and protect Europe from Russia.

Great read on real numbers of Ukrainians who fought and died during WWII. Russia—that actually started WWII as Hitler's ally to share Europe—now tries to appropriate the victory as its own while in reality it were other countries that fought more and suffered more.

Poll: Who bears the most responsibility for the Oval Office argument?

Trump: 50%
J.D. Vance: 42%
All: 4%
Zelensky: 4%

In the end, Trump was right about Zelensky's 4%. It was just a different 4%.

The US should thank Trump for losing its allies in Europe. Wonder how it plans to counter China when it loses the whole Europe's support and access. Putin is laughing his ass off: his buddy Trump helps to achieve unimaginable—dividing Europe and the US.

"Don't Look Up" was a documentary disguised as satire.

"The Art of the Deal", European version. The EU demonstrated to Trump what the art of the deal truly is, showcasing the best alternative to a negotiated agreement (BATNA) in action.

"Russian ship, go f*ck yourself" — the only successful negotiations with Russia were on Snake Island by Ukrainian border guards.

It does show how messed up the US has become that it’s losing money on making money and that by trying to save money on making money it’s going to lose even more money.

"Getting rid of the penny introduces a new problem: nickels"

As expected, hacking body weight isn't working in the long run. One needs to "teach" one's body to be healthy by eating healthy food in appropriate quantity at the right time, not relying on quick fixes. The body needs to adapt to the right routine naturally.

China and India are the biggest abusers of our climate. The first thing to start doing to tackle global warming is reshoring production capacities from countries that burn fossil fuels to those that use renewable energy. China and India don't give a shit about our home planet.

Amazing photos. The Humpback whale swims up to the photographer for an incredible close-up.

Russia is short of 200K cops. In some regions, there's a shortage of up to 26% of the required number. Time for Russian population to think about revolting in case they aren't satisfied with their government. Unfortunately, they have slave mentality and are in a mental state of learned helplessness.

The overthrow of Bashar al-Assad's regime is the merit of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. And this is no joke. By and large, the emergence of Free Syria is a continuation of the Arab Spring, which was crushed by the Russian bast shoe in the interest of preserving the regime of the Syrian dictator

Something familiar: artificial general intelligence and flying cars are always "just around the corner"—just a few more years. History never repeats itself, but it definitely rhymes.

P.S. Marvin Lee Minsky co-founded the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's AI laboratory.

A 5-minute entertaining story about why Russia started wars in Ukraine, South Ossetia, Nagorno-Karabakh, and Transnistria.

In 1997, Georgia, Ukraine, Azerbaijan, and Moldova created the GUAM organization (the first letters of the participating countries).
