Hug of death I think.

Gave me a good and convincing first couple of tries. Good work.

Marketing people. Don't you just love them ...

A point I have been trying to get across. There are too many examples to list of places with differing names. But renaming due to politics often has a history of being temporary.

Since fascists are political extremists that seems a bit circular.

Thanks, the word 'misdirection' puzzled me.

Misdirection: is the act of distracting people or drawing their attention away from a true purpose, intent, or action.

You scraped Google and presented the data.

This assumes the USA should be at war with Iran. I think Trump feels duped, and wants to get things back to some sort of stability as soon as he can.

He really doesn't want a ground war.

I think the AI companies are to blame by drumming up a feeding frenzy (for money) rather than acknowledging they are "next word guessing machines".

I think it may be

Thanks for the link.

Going through those, it looks as if only about 50% stuck, mostly from World War II, so here's hoping. I'm not sure if using the name is in any way enforced?

You can make too much of this. Countries regularly have different names for foreign or shared places. The "English Channel" is "La Manche", Cologne is Köln. Like the English language, it's pretty much down to "that's what I call it". If people continue to call it "Lake Ontario" that's what it will be.

Well are they or aren't they?

> Expelling people who have no particular attachment or roots to a given land is not ethnic cleansing.

If you are going to expel people you need more than hand wavy definitions like this. Or does it just come down to "people who are not like us"?

Why have personal computers when there are mainframes? Why have TV when you can go to the cinema? I'm glad the author acknowledges their bias.

I think you are making it too complex. Show the price constantly, falling at a constant rate. If you get some traction take it from there.

If you follow the link there are dictionary entries. It's not stupidity, it's completely reasonable. Amerigo Vespucci didn't name the USA, he named the entire continent.

"Britain" is widely used to refer to the UK, but Great Britain is the physical land mass which excludes Northern Ireland, so there is rarely confusion.

Refering to the whole as America is a thing. Perhaps not in America (whatever that means).

At least half of that is general inflation.

Mbox is text, so it is searchable with something which takes a huge file. Not sure you will find client type formatting as standalone option. I use Thunderbird which is at least local.

I have never been good at learning. But I am good at understanding. Those two are not the same.

No AI - how can that possibly work?

Here in the UK it still says Ontario.

Interesting that he changed the name to that of the entire continent, so Mexicans and Venezuelans can feel part of it.

What is the point of it?

"a supplement produced with financial support from Oklo Inc"

"Oklo Corp. Logo Oklo is designing and deploying advanced fission power plants to provide clean, reliable, affordable energy"

Yes, the USA has never been asked for support under the NATO agreement, though they did themselves call on support after 9/11 (and Trump did imagine he might get support in Iran which definitely doesn't qualify).

I suspect they would not want to be put in the position of supporting a European nation against Russia.

In fact my reading of Trump is that warfare is not really his cup of tea, making Iran a big shock to me.

I was thinking more of climate change (in) denial.
