Ultimate life hack is to read biographies.
George Washington is said to have read Plutarch's Lives with obsession. Devouring every page and every story. He later used the lessons to lead a successful Revolution against the British.
Biographies are the cheat code to life.
Ford is done.
GM is done.
Honda is done.
Toyota is dying.
Now FOUR of my employees have bought Tesla Model Y vehicles. They let me drive one. I was blown away... again. Full-Self Driving (FSD) is highly evolved. Human-like in its decisions. Feels safer than any human driver.
I told my staff to install a couple of charging stations at my company parking lot. We're going to offer free charging to any employee that drives an EV. (F*ck gas prices and war in the Persian Gulf!)
The future of personal transport vehicles on this planet belongs to Tesla, BYD, CATL and maybe a couple of other companies. And all of them will be EVs.
At this point, driving a combustion engine vehicle for daily tasks seems obsolete.
And I don't believe a single thing about climate alarmism and all those cultists who hate carbon dioxide. EVs make sense simply from an economics perspective: They're a fraction of the cost to operate, and much simpler to maintain (no oil changes, no engine air filter, no fuel filter, etc.). Plus, you can charge them from sunlight and get entirely off-grid with your "fuel" supply. (I'll be publishing videos showing this in my studio soon.)
Yes, I used to mock EVs. I once said I would never ride in a self-driving vehicle. I was wrong. The technology has been transformed. Battery chemistry improvements have enabled solid range capabilities and very good specifications on charge/discharge cycles. Tesla's FSD capabilities are far stronger than I thought was possible. They've outdone themselves.
Now, I'm absolutely convinced: I will never buy another combustion engine vehicle again.
Ölümünün üzerinden on yıl geçtikten sonra Umberto Eco'nun yaklaşık 32 bin kitaptan oluşan kişisel kütüphanesi ilk kez araştırmacıların ve okurların erişimine açıldı. Bologna Üniversitesi'nde kurulan Eco Kütüphanesi, yalnızca ünlü yazarın kitaplarını değil; raf düzeninden çalışma notlarına kadar düşünme ve yazma biçimini de koruyarak gelecek kuşaklara aktarmayı hedefliyor.
Detaylar @velevpress'te...
Leonid Brezhnev in the United States, driving a Lincoln Continental he had just received as a gift. In the passenger seat is US President Richard Nixon, 1973
If we indulge in the fantastic nonsense of seeking to create a European super-state, competing with the United States, we will have only ourselves to blame if our countries have to raise taxes to pay for stronger armaments necessitated by American withdrawal from the defence of Europe and from the leadership of NATO.
.@SecRubio о Венесуэле: В нашем полушарии существовал режим, возглавляемый обвиняемым наркоторговцем, который стал оперативной базой практически для всех конкурентов, противников и соперников США. Это представляло огромный стратегический риск для Соединенных Штатов.
@oleshkomyroslav В 19 році ще був рух "капітуляції ні", на якому бодай частина відповідальності за зрив переговорів і Парижі.
Звісно менша, бо не при посадах, а просто активісти.
Президент Трамп не позволит Западному полушарию стать прибежищем для наркоторговцев, иранских прокси-сил и враждебных режимов, угрожающих нашей национальной безопасности.
Времена слабости остались в прошлом. Мы задействуем все имеющиеся инструменты, чтобы искоренить эти угрозы у наших границ.
Donald Trump just shared this @nypost article: "Putin ‘attack’ bluster shows Russia is the one standing in the way of peace...The drone strike likely never happened. Putin’s entire war is a lie. Just as he did in Alaska, Putin was offered peace and instead spat in America’s eye."
@Ulianalive Очень интересно. А нет аналогичного интервью с теми, кто "работает" с украинскими пленными в России?
Интересно, как там с Женевской конвенцией?
An independent Polish court has refused to execute a European Arrest Warrant issued by a German court. I am very pleased that the court shared my line of argumentation: the destruction of the Nord Stream pipeline was not a crime under Polish law - it was justified under the conditions of a defensive war conducted pursuant to Article 51 of the United Nations Charter. It therefore constituted a legitimate military target.
Under the Geneva Conventions and customary international humanitarian law, this means that combatants acting within a military mission in the course of a lawful defensive war cannot be held criminally liable for actions undertaken in the execution of their duty to defend their country. In such circumstances, military operations directed against the enemy’s war infrastructure are not acts of sabotage but lawful acts of war.
The Polish court also agreed with the defence that German courts, in the Nord Stream matter, cannot guarantee judicial independence, and thus cannot ensure a fair trial. I am not surprised by the ruling - it is a right and just decision by a Polish court.
As the presiding judge stated:
“The destruction of the aggressor’s critical infrastructure during a defensive war is not sabotage; it is a military act, which cannot be considered a crime.”
He further underlined that the purpose of the current proceedings was not to determine whether the accused actually committed the act alleged by the German side, but only whether such an allegation could justify the execution of a European Arrest Warrant.
“The Polish court has no evidence in this matter. The German side provided only very general information - no more than what could fit on a single page,” the judge noted.
