Germany thwarted a planned attack by ISIS on Sweden’s Parliament building. Reddit: How could Ukraine do this? /s O0 One that bugs me is the use of "like", which has sadly expanded far beyond the Valley girls. Somebody will relay a story to me and say "I was like, 'what were you thinki...

… Where did you read about the nuclear threat, Seajay? I have only read Putin’s veiled threats about using nukes, but only if the U.S. or another NATO nation were to cross the line by directly killing Russian troops. From Ukrainian military top brass, can't recall the name, TV news instead of being...

Well you’ve covered a lot of ground, M. I don’t know if any of it has anything to do with Putin.
But, our legal system does seem pretty messed up, in a multitude of ways.

Anyone for Toast/TOST?
Not a moonshot, just a variable portfolio stock, but it doesn’t warrant its own thread.

Microsoft has unveiled AI PCs. Now, I don’t know whether I want one or not, but all I can think about, Vinny, is your yet unused dream machine sitting next to the old one you’re working on.

Just google best modems for Comcast.
