Classic schooled actors with theater experience are being replaced by young actors using basic conversational speech and volume. More natural but not that easy to understand.

You set up a company A. You also make a consultant company B. Company A hires very highly paid consultants from company B. Meanwhile you make paintings. You sell those paintings to company B at high prices with the money you got from company A. Now your debts are gone and company A is in debt. Fold company A and B. Add in some shell companies in the Bahamas if needed.

But, you need to have enough money to set up companies, have expensive accountants and lawyers, and to pay off some officials. You'll have to be rich to become more rich basically.

Don't follow this advice, it's just fiction.

Everyone should get the same carbon budget a year. Maybe as a separate currency. It can then be saved up or traded to use as you see fit. Want to go on oversee flights? Better buy some carbon from some tree huggers with budget to spare.

They just stripped the light freight classification for trucks for private persons over here. Sales dropped by half.

Yes and no

The Telco can say between what antennas you are. In urban areas with lots of antennas that's still pretty accurate to almost say what building. Especially with 5G the number of antennas and accuracy go upto in some cases centimeter/inch accuracy so better than GPS. That last case would be in a mall with small antenna in each corridor.

In rural areas with data switched off that's more like somewhere in that square mile, way worse than GPS.

Except Tesla's uncle had brain damage and doesn't really learn from the situation so will go it again, and had clones of him driving thousands of other cars.

I need some alcohol at least once per month.

Putin approves this message!

I propose "chairshooting" after the "who killed Hannibal" meme. It's a nice double word, like gaslighting.

Turns out there are after market mods for that. Spoiler, other front, flame paint job

Tesla/Musk really went for the "I have the right to not use collective bargaining" and is really shocked to find out people went for "we have the right to strike".

First past the post voting systems make sure there are only two parties and two candidates. A third party doesn't stand a chance.

Of course neither party wants to change things because it works for them.
