Re: History thread
There's still that strange reference to electrum in ancient Greek. When the only known source of electrum is in South America. I think there's still an awful lot of early history we don't get.

Re: President Biden and US politics catchall
I certainly hope Trump has that problem, among others, but we don't know if they're merely protesting in a primary they know he'll win, and we don't know how those annoyed with Biden will actually go in a GE either. And there is the teensy snag of the Electoral College He's definitely got a problem...

It's point that's been well known for a while. Exactly how Russia's been able to keep it's drone fleet updated and effective. There also needs to be some balance, effective enforcement of the things that actually matter. Selling luxury cars is one thing - chipsets and optics quite another.
