Advancing scientific understanding…

Every day we understand the world slightly better. As we do, rules and laws need to develop and change. It’s sad that it’s taken Trump to do this and it’s in an order that I probably disagree with.

Hopefully, we’ll monitor closely and learn so that we can change our minds again we we learn more.

F1 team heads call for Monaco to ‘move with the times’ and make track change…

Imagine the irony? Mercedes build a car that’s too big and then ask for the city to make changes to fit it?

“The ­fundamental problem is you cannot overtake here,” he said. “The cars are so big now that you just don’t have a chance to get alongside. It’s circuit specific, we’ve known that, it’s been on the calendar for 72 years. Everything has to move with the times ultimately.

Is this the same company that builds cars too big for parking spaces, requests extensions to energy and pollution laws every month?

Mercedes have managed the impossible, made Monaco look like the modern part of this story! Mercedes look unable to adapt to the future both on and off the track.

The Cruelty Is the Point…

This isn’t incoherent. It reflects a clear principle: Only the president and his allies, his supporters, and their anointed are entitled to the rights and protections of the law, and if necessary, immunity from it. The rest of us are entitled only to cruelty, by their whim. This is how the powerful have ever kept the powerless divided and in their place, and enriched themselves in the process.

There has always been a debate about the “right” order to watch the movies.

My new proposal; Andor, Rogue One, Episodes 4 to 8 and then stop. All tight great movies

And the story ends with hope…

Apple looking for a fight…

Fortnite maker Epic Games has announced that Apple has blocked the game’s return to iOS. Following the rejection, Fortnite is no longer available on iPhones and iPads even in the European Union, where it had previously been available to download through the Epic Games Store.

I can’t see how this ends well for Apple, they’re trying to protect a moat that isn’t allowed under EU law. To make things worse, they’re drawing attention to it.

Instagram via Spotlight…

I wanted to add the Instagram feed to the site. I think that this is first step of moving my photos off of Instagram all together. (I’m almost off Facebook, have given up my Amazon habit, and am thinking about Apple, can’t imagine what they have in common!!!).

There are PlugIns to do this. One is called Spotlight. I tried to install and then gave up because it said I needed a creator account for Instagram.

Then a miracle. Someone at Spotlight reached out to my email, talked be through the process. And now it all works!!!

So Spotlight is recommended.
