@GMJacobAagaard@dogoodalltime You're underestimating Gukesh IMO... he was sensational in 2024 in classical to an extent higher than all the others have been sustainably. yes his form is at an all time low and Sindarov would definitely be the favourite today but if he regains form, it would be a cracking match
Hi folks, I've just reviewed the @XiaomiIndia Notebook Pro 120G for @newslaundry. It's a powerful machine with a pro-grade screen and a couple of surprises up its sleeve, click through to find out what they are!! And smash that RT button please?

the oscars gave will smith all the time he wanted to do his speech after he literally assaulted someone live on stage, but michael moore was hurriedly kicked off when he called out iraq war propaganda. hollywood in a nutshell
This is a wonderful promotional video. The first thought that came to mind when I saw it was that this is an extremely Cricinfo presentation...

BMTC's is always widely discredited for its losses, but Metro's much higher losses with much less ridership hardly brooks discussion! Public transport is not about profit and loss. But the difference in how bus and metro are treated needs reflection @BBPVedike@SUMNetIndia
@ovshake42 But Iznogoud's art style reflected the tone of the writing as well IMO. I too love Uderzo's art but really disliked his handling of the writing esp in later books after Goscinny's death
Asterix has controlled wit. Iznogoud has madcap wit. Both are equally wonderful IMO
Asterix was a huge part of my childhood + Goscinny is my favourite comics writer (with Alan Moore). Rarely did the Uderzo titles come close to the heights of the Goscinny written ones.
It was many years later that a comics series equalled Asterix. It was Iznogoud (also Goscinny)
In the Acknowledgments section for my FiftyTwo essay, I thanked Sci-Hub/Libgen and its founder Alexandra Elbakyan. The thought itself isn't original: I had thought of this last year, while reading Gautam Bhatia's book on the constitution. He had credited Libgen, too.
