Wondering if they are threatening ambassadors to comply with Agent Krasnov's demands (death threats / publishing family member addresses, other mafia style threats)?

Otherwise I wouldn't expect Mandelson to parrot Kremlin's propaganda like this.

It's Vance who's leading this assault on Ukraine and Europe. It's like he's fully controlled by Kremlin and someone there is writing his speeches.

I've stopped buying from Amazon since the election in November.

Planes fly around mountain ranges to avoid turbulence and also not in straight lines as Earth is a sphere! Open the Flightradar24 website and have a look at the traffic around the Himalayas as an example. Musk's so dumb or otherwise so high on drugs and unaware of even basic facts like this.

He used to be employed by Russia Today, a subsidy of the Russian government so definitely has connections over there.

It's probably done by a guy in full employment sitting somewhere in St Petersburg and tasked to suppress opposition voices.

Did Elon buy an MEP to speak on his behalf?

Release the Kraken, ordered the far-right populists!

AI can spit out any rubbish when you're in control of the system and can tweak the learning data and the algorithm! Perhaps some people are not aware of this : )

Adding a link with some more info, just one of many examples.

Revealed: Tories still taking cash from Russia-linked donors
The donations include £50,000 from Lubov Chernukhin, who is married to Vladimir Putin’s former deputy finance minister

+ approx £6m donated to the Conservative party by Kremlin linked individuals that's known about and probably more in undercover deals within the friends of Russia conservative circles.

All in 5 years time? Seems very unlikely to me. It's another 1960's robot hype when they predicted that robots would soon be doing all mundane tasks, 60 years later we still have to wash our dishes by hand : ) Such a simple task and robots can't do it, let alone assemble more complicated parts.

Nah, there will be still plenty of jobs to train AI and service the computers that run it : )
February 17, 2025 at 1:06 AM
Yes, AI is just a data driven algorithm, there is no real intelligence there. AI will be a useful tool but writers will still be needed - just like robots that need to be programmed and serviced by humans.

I live in a 1930s house, solid walls, mostly insulated, double glazed. Moisture from cooking, baths, drying clothes will condensate on any colder surface and mold will form. To prevent it I keep humidity under 50%-60% so use extractors, MVHR, dehumidifiers, tumble dryers - it does cost to buy/run!

Trump is Putin's agent. Trump talking about invading other territories gives them a green light to do as they like. News just in: Trump's new Attorney General Pam Bondi has disbanded the DOJ task force dedicated to enforcing sanctions against Russia and targeting oligarchs close to the Kremlin.

Interesting that Trump is not sanctioning Putin but instead wants to invade his close neighbours and aims to prevent investigations into corruption and crime.
February 7, 2025 at 12:36 AM
Exactly, that's why I think that Kremlin is meddling. Apparently one of Elon's young programmers was involved in setting up a russian bot farm as well.
February 6, 2025 at 9:39 PM
Interesting that they've launched a probe against Google but not against Twitter - strange that!
