The Finnish military cammo pattern is really effective, as seen in the photo.

The Merino wool balaclava used by the model is from Varusteleka.com, which has a lot of really cool gear. $20 USD.

Modern monetary theory. Central Banks are printing to cover exceptional gov needs.

This is basically the equivalent of minting a trillion-dollar platinum coin. It basically shows that advanced countries that borrow in their own currencies don't face financing constraints ft.com/content/664c575b-0f54-4

@zleap that sea water looks wonderful. Very nice! 👍🌞☺️

Just read an article about cold coffee and the preparation method, and thought you might be interested, maybe experimenting. 🙂☕️

The article is on Ars Technica - arstechnica.com/science/2020/0 and it links to a recipe, very simple, on the NY Times - cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/10

They also have a one week Recording service - which keeps all broadcast programmes available for the week after their broadcast time. (Similar to BBC iplayer, but for only one week)

No VPN required. HD channels work well also. Love this.

I use and recommend this service. TVmucho.com gives you access to British TV channels anywhere in the world. 37 channels in the basic package, more if you are willing to pay a bit more.

tvmucho.com

They also give free user accounts access to one hour a day of programming - for no cost. Just register and try it out. Or use it to catch the excellent BBC News reports once a day.

Basic package costs only 48 Euros on a yearly plan, that's 4 Euros per month, for quality tV delivered without glitches or piracy risks.

...And the "Mute this Conversation" control, which is supposed to put an end to Hell Threads of varying types, actually doesn't...

Argh. Off to something more productive, like raking some leaves, riding the bike a bit, etc.

I could spend a huge amount of time in the kind of debate thread you enjoy, but I don't see the point -- as people will end up unchanged and going their own ways. I won't try to convince you, and it's not for lack of possible arguments.

The worse aspect is that having someone who acts the way Trump does is damaging other countries, not only his own.

@freemo

Yes, I do follow media channels that I have affinity for, and don't think they are distorting reality -- like the other side does or tries to do in a daily basis.

I am always surprised by your evaluation of his handling of this situation.

@obi

@obi

Bidden indeed is not a good candidate, unfortunately.

And I see Trumps handling of the whole crisis in a VERY different way that Freemo, it seems. It's clearly inept. The man is incompetent and dangerous.

There's a good chance the Orange Man might be defeated by the pandemic impact, both in health and economic terms.

We will have to wait and see, things are happening day by day and seem to happen slowly now.

@freemo

@obi A delayed primary vote did not expose anyone to infection, in case they wanted to vote in person -- which is the case in Wisconsin.

No harm done in that case, a sensible thing to do in my opinion.
