I studied the Cold War.
When the russians/Soviets say: "We will use nuclear weapons!", the only answer must be: "Try and die."
All else is seen as weakness by the kremlin and will lead to the russians using nukes.

Via reddit (GPS path of cutting grass, S4 vs Ultra). I wish every Apple Watch got this GPS upgrade; I always advise users to keep their phone on them so it can use the phone’s GPS. This is an amazing improvement.

This is anecdotal but among "mostly disengaged from politics" normies I speak to I've often heard skepticism that Trump will really run again in 2024.
I obviously don't *know* whether he will, but it certainly looks like it to me, and if so there's a big wake up call coming
