He may talk rubbish but Trump has an eye for beauty, and that is a breath of fresh air | Simon Jenkins The US president promotes classical architecture and loathes ‘ugly’ wind turbines. Keir Starmer would dismiss him as a nimby, but on this Trump has a point, says Guardian columnist Simon Jenkins

I sort of understand why The Guardian keeps Simon Jenkins on for "balance." But he is a clown nonetheless and I really wonder if there is not someone serious out there who could take an alternative perspective and make it credible.

Its probably quite costly to stock repair parts. So much of the cost will be handling the parts, and if demand is low then it might be as costly to supply a new screen as a new phone.

Surely Don Corleone had more integrity (even the Al Pacino version).

That idea is now a few years old and based on the Model T of LLMs. You can now get chatgpt to do both the original report, and the critique. And then if you want a critique of that too it is waiting to help. No human can beat chatgpt at its own game.

Absolutely there should be a car cull, but I am not in favour of killing the drivers. Give them a free bicycle.

Gaza experiencing 'real starvation', Donald Trump says The US president's comments come after Israel's prime minister said claims of hunger were a

Its obvious that Trump simply repeats whatever the people he is with at the time are saying. Today there is this and his comment on Russia/Ukraine. Once he gets stateside and Vance et al get their hooks in him he will change his tune.

Wikipedia is the best encyclopedia that has ever existed and a very reliable source. There is no way you could use it and not realise that.

Capitalism is normal, cooperation is normal. There is no way Wikipedia would exist without both.

My experience with Wikipedia has not always been great. Its hard to edit, and if you add a significant amount of content someone deletes it. I still support it (financially) and use it, but I wonder if in the end it is not as democratic as it could be.

“Wikipedia is this economic anomaly. In many ways, it’s sort of magical that people will just volunteer without explicit economic incentives to create artifacts that are meant to share knowledge with everyone in the world”

How does The Telegraph expect people to respond to this?

This is so brave, and they have set a precedent too.

Sports journalism never fails to delight.

The business secretary is aware that other people don't understand asset markets.

No Proof Hamas Routinely Stole U.N. Aid, Israeli Military Officials Say

Almost too late to be told this. And even if they had stolen aid, it would not have justified refusing to allow others to supply it.

Explanation: If they could get the food, security etc for free they would not insist on paying for it.

It says it is the source, but that is not the same as it being the source. It is not a link to the daily mail.

But (following on) this claim is just some nonsense past up job and is not from the Daily Mail anyway.

The Daily Mail is biased, in that its front page is usually some right wing tosh, but its news reporting is generally not distorted. It is absolutely nothing like The Enquirer. Maybe like the New York Daily Post, although I do not know that paper at all.

Pacino ... where have I heard that name before?

The headline below a photo of Trump’s eyes says: CONVICTED US FELON TO ARRIVE IN SCOTLAND. The sub-heading reads: Republican leader, who was found liable for sexual abuse and defamation, will visit golf courses.

NEW: Tomorrow’s front page of Scottish newspaper, The National.

Hotel cleaners are super overworked and maybe don't need extra decision points.

"We cannot claim to care about democracy only when it costs nothing."

Although the courts may not use it as an admission of guilt, an individual is surely free to make logical inferences.

I am longing to disagree with you, but ...

One of those "ends of an era" that is really the end of an era.

Asked ChatGPT to evaluate this. Quite interesting. Part of the evaluation is here.

An unbearably sad statement from the Editorial Committee (SDJ) of the AFP news agency, please read:

Going vegan is ‘single biggest way’ to reduce our impact, study finds Avoiding meat and dairy could reduce your carbon footprint from food by nearly three-quarters

A vegan world would mean a huge decrease in deforestation, land use, water use, reduction in species loss, ocean dead zones and it would see an end to the brutal slaughter of 80 BILLION land animals each and every year, TRILLIONS when you include sea creatures.
