killing him is inferior to shaming him. I have faith that his shaming will precede his death.
I'd rather not wait
"Vengeance is a dish best served cold" doesn't work for me, at all.
Example
Kissinger should be FUCKING DEAD!!!!!!!!
But nope, still walking the Earth after sending 1000's upon 1000's of American BOYS!!!! to die in Vietnam while promising to withdraw, instead he expanded into Cambodia.
So, no, I don't want to wait.
I want him fucking dead, now :)

Canada bans China’s Huawei and ZTE from 5G networks

    • Trudeau’s government had delayed the move to join allies like the US for more than three years, as relations with Beijing deteriorated
    • Ties soured dramatically after Canada’s arrest of Huawei CFO Meng Wanzhou, who was allowed to return to China last year
Canada is joining its closest intelligence allies in banning Huawei Technologies Co. and ZTE from fifth-generation wireless networks, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government announced on Thursday.

Ottawa had delayed the decision for more than three years, as relations between the two countries deteriorated, and a ban would almost certainly stoke tensions.

But the long-awaited announcement will be welcomed by President Joe Biden’s administration, which has sought to steer countries away from Huawei.

95 years ago and this was the sate of intellectual thought. Bertrand was a page reader and could flip through a novel in a couple of minutes, taking it all in at a glance. On the BBC, they might have burned him at the stake in 1927 America!

Bertrand Arthur William Russell, 3rd Earl Russell OM FRS (18 May 1872 – 2 February 1970) was a British philosopher, logician, and social critic. As an academic, he worked in philosophy, mathematics, and logic. His work has had a considerable influence on mathematics, logic, set theory...

Ya Ya,

Ok, I'm feeling sick.

Interesting thoughts going through my head.......

I'm having fun, in a way :)

Anyway it's 4:43 AM (EST) & I was watching the African Queen & thought of this guy/song.

Figure that the fuck out because there sorta is no connection, unless it's Bogart & Hepburn

Whatever, it's a very, very good musician/singer/songwriters best work in my opinion (get anything he's done)

Play it loud :)

Now this is interesting! Not ready for mass manufacture, but a serious breakthrough and I've been reading about it in other places too.
https://drexel.edu/news/archive/2022/february/lithium-sulfur-cathode-carbonate-electrolyte

The entertaining click bait version. The amount of research and product development in batteries is amazing as the globe races to solve the problems of EVs, portable devices and energy storage. Thousands of researchers at hundreds if not thousands of universities and companies are working on it and there's research news and papers almost every day. Much is in a lab, but a lot is in the product development or mass manufacture phase, the stakes are enormous and the winner in battery technology will reap a lot of cash.

Another breakthrough, this one we might see soon.


Germany JUST ANNOUNCED Their NEW Sulphur Battery Technology that SHOCKS the Industry!
3,618 views May 15, 2022 Lithium-sulphur batteries may soon become a commercial reality, stunning both the business sector and science! Lithium-sulphur batteries have a potential energy density of 2600 watt-hours per kg, which is 18 times that of modern lithium iron phosphate batteries! The introduction of lithium-sulphur batteries is a game changer for the electric vehicle industry.

Electric trucks? Here is how Europe might solve the problem. They don't need to electrify the entire length either, trucks with new technology batteries can recharge on the fly over say 30 Km stretches and up mountains and hills, say 25% of a trip would be powered and recharged by the system on the main routes, the rest done on batteries. No long stops for recharging, recharge on the move, no more stink of diesel and no more noise! If they implement this system in the EU, along with electric trains, EV cars and bikes, how much oil and gas will they need to import in 10 years? New battery technology can also be used in energy storage increasing grid efficiency and making renewables more feasible.

So in a decade how much demand will there be for fossil fuels? If Europe goes electric along with China and America is half way there or more, the number of ICE vehicles you can buy is dwindling and gas stations will start closing down in a few years. The MAGATS will freak out as will those who cling to the past, they will go the way of the steam locomotive, simply because EVs will be cheaper to buy and operate and will most likely last a lot longer than an ICE vehicle because it has so few moving parts to wear out.

This pantograph system is also attractive to trucking companies and the model makes sense for them economically.

I do love this song. And I do play it loud.

Just took a tour of the USS Maine with it's 20 Nuclear Warheads (which they will neither confirm or deny:lol:).
They should make a friendly port call in Russia and give public tours, while explaining to the TV camera that one of these could reduce Russia down to 16 million radiation sickened souls, just this one submarine! We have several, while the UK and France have them too, then there is the US air force and the ICBMs. Enough to nuke Russia many times over from three different countries, so loose talk about nukes is kinda stupid, the US Navy officer who speaks perfect Russian would say to the TV camera! :lol:

Oh no America needs driverless semi's and that's what they're placing at least one bet on since so many licenses are unclaimed 40k.

That was the whole point of letting media see it so news and footage returns to Short Man Behind The Iron Curtain.
