I love watching the corrupt Democratic Party establishment, along with their paymasters and enablers in the media, running around absolutely peeing their pants at the thought of Mamdani becoming Mayor of NYC. I cannot wait for him to win.

New York and London are both cosmopolitan metropolises, with double-digit millions of people resident, reasonably good public transport in the centre & a congestion charging area to reduce the number of cars, an important financial district, and lots more similarities.

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

NEW: 2024 has just been confirmed as the warmest year on record, and the first to breach the 1.5C threshold.
We used a ridgeline (Joy Division inspired) chart to visualise daily temperature anomalies since 1940.
2024 clearly stands out with 100% of its days above 1.3C and 75% above 1.5C.

I am so sick of my QNAP NAS. I'm getting random reboots, and all support says is, "It's not QNAP compatible." Because a particular piece of widely supported hardware isn't on their list which features a lot of QNAP-branded stuff,

Het waren vooral milde infecties (in tegenstelling tot vroegere H5N1 gevallen die voor de helft dodelijk verliepen).
