US proposals to end Russia’s war involve Ukraine giving up land, some weapons, sources say, and frankly, the whole thing sounds like a rerun of a bad movie.

Peace? That’s the million-dollar question, isn’t it?
The central concept here is that these proposals involve Ukraine making significant concessions, the most alarming being the potential ceding of land. This, of course, comes with a host of uncomfortable implications.… Continue reading
The British citizen under war-crimes investigation after filming pigs eat Ukrainian soldier, seemingly believes he’s a staunch U.K. patriot, despite seeking refuge in Russia. The audacity of this claim is staggering. The idea that someone could commit such a horrific act, film it, and then declare themselves a patriot, is frankly nauseating.

Yes, it’s understandable that many are calling for his swift return… so he can face justice. There’s a widespread feeling that he should be welcomed back to his homeland, not with open arms, but with a summons to answer for his alleged crimes.… Continue reading

It seems the House was buzzing, not always in a good way, over a failed attempt to censure Congresswoman Stacey Plaskett.

Quantum teleportation between photons from two distant light sources achieved, it’s a big deal. The headlines might be tempting to sensationalize, but let’s dig a little deeper. The achievement itself is significant: scientists have successfully teleported quantum information, not matter, between photons originating from two separate light sources. The team in Stuttgart managed to do this over a fiber optic cable, which, even at a length of about 10 meters, is a substantial distance on this scale.
Now, while the accomplishment is impressive, let’s keep our feet on the ground. There are definitely challenges to overcome. The current success rate hovers around 70%.… Continue reading
