I'm not actually all that convinced he'll live that long. Terrible diet by all accounts and a bit of weight on him for a man of his age.
Scary few years ahead though.

I tend to agree on the Mars thing, I don't think we'll see people living on Mars in my lifetime but the Starship is also going to be used as a moon lander by NASA when they return to the moon and these tests are part of the development for that, with Mars being Musk's ultimate dream.Quote:

$TRUMP coin released last night, I've seen rumours about Trump doing this but never really gave it a second thought until my son messages me this morning asking if I've got any $TRUMP coin as it's rocketing. Haven't checked yet but the reports I did see say it's now worth $25bn in total. This guy, who's supposed to be President has more or less just created $25bn overnight from a Meme Coin, that's ridiculous.

Yup, it's went from $60 to $72 since I posted the first reply. I wonder how many he's holding. Released 200m coins with a further 800m to be released apparently over the next 3 years. I can't believe this isn't a conflict of interest.Quote:

Critics accused Trump of cashing in on the presidency.
"Trump owning 80 percent and timing launch hours before inauguration is predatory and many will likely get hurt by it," Nick Tomaino, a crypto venture capitalist, said in a social media post.
Such digital tokens are notorious for speculators using hype to pump up the value before selling at the top of the market, leaving latecomers to count their losses as the price crashes.
Cryptocurrency investors are hoping the Trump administration will boost the industry."

Trump on Elon Musk: "He knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers. Those vote-counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide."
Election interference by any chance??
Biden just preemptively pardons Dr Fauchi, General Milley and Members of Congress and Staff (including Police officers who testified) in the Jan 6th Committee.
To prevent them being made into Political scapegoats once Trump 2.0 comes to office.
A sad state of affairs that he had to do so.

I was squirming with embarrassment and sympathy for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Don’t get me started on the theatrical performance and ranting of the African American preacher.
The preacher want reminded me very much of Richard Pryor, crazy stuff!

No you didn't. Although there was a lot of deaths due to yellow fever and the unfortunate expected deaths we'd expect back then for major construction projects, there was nowhere near that many American deaths.
Historians along with BBC verify reckon it's closer to 300 US deaths (mostly mosquito virus related).

Is it just me or is some of the Trumpesque bending of the truth by his opponents just playing right into his hands? All over Twitter right now that Trump 'just admitted he rigged the election' with some carefully selected and edited video footage as proof.
It's utter bollocks, in the context of the whole speech what he actually said is clear. He's an idiot but not that thick. It all just looks a bit desperate and sad. There will be plenty to criticise him for in the years to come without just making stuff up. He'll just cry 'fake news' (which it is) and his supporters will lap it up as further proof of the plot against him.
They don't seem to mention it on their running news page?Quote:
