There are few facts as yet. Chief among the missing facts are the identity of the attacker and what his motives were. I suspect that those little details will determine if this becomes Big News or just sorta fades away. Paul Pelosi, husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, attacked with hammer at home Option A,…
I honestly have no idea what the future of Twitter and other online sewers holds… other than some glorious chaos. Elon Musk fires Twitter’s top brass after closing $44 billion deal: reports A source with knowledge of the matter told FOX Business that Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal, CFO Ned Segal, and Vijaya Gadde, head of…
Further Third Worldification of American cities… You’d think they’d at least try to clean up the area around the White House. Maybe even try to mask the damage caused by the anti-Trump insurrectionists several years ago. Nope.
Russia warns West: We can target your commercial satellites Konstantin Vorontsov, deputy director of the Russian foreign ministry’s department for non-proliferation and arms control, told the United Nations that the United States and its allies were trying to use space to enforce Western dominance. “Quasi-civilian infrastructure may be a legitimate target for a retaliatory strike,”…
There’s lots of awful in this story. One aspect of awful: a man hunting mushrooms stumbled across a suitcase and found a dead five-year-old in it.

The most recently finished diagram took several days. The references were clear and detailed… and difficult to suss out in some ways, a common issue with aircraft that had deployable bits.
It’s a long video, but it’s interesting to listen to an artist rail against AI text-to-image art generators. The guy knows that his field is as endangered as a factory workers; even if AI never get *quite* as good as human artists (doubtful), the sheer volume of art – images, music, videos, whole movies –…
Yeah… no. It seems that whole swathes of LA have been turned into the Third World. This was not a sad inevitability; this was a result of intentional choices by those in charge of the city, county and state. Yeeeeeeesh. You can’t have vast numbers of homeless like this and justify open borders.
It is hard these days to separate Hitler from the occult. Regardless of how much Adolf *actually* believed in Atlantis or Vril or Hyperborea or Ancient Aryan Supermen or all that rubbish, it is now just accepted that he did, and that those beliefs informed his nutty plans and actions. Did he really think that…
Bell artwork circa 1983 depicting the proposed JVX tiltrotor, which would become the V-22 Osprey. The cockpit and the sponsons display the greatest obvious differences from the aircraft that would eventually be built, but the design seems to be largely just about there.
