Do newspapers in your country not publish opinion columns or editorials?
Maybe it's a way to launder dirty money or take bribes, the way solid booking a floor at the Trump Tower for a few months is a way to launder money.
Oh teh noes, not UK waging a proxy war on Iran and North Korea!

Eric Schmidt: ChatGPT 4zz++ Premium Elite, how do we solve global warming?

The only purpose of NFTs is to raise sea levels by metres and inundate every coastal city. Owning NFTs is a crime against humanity. Anyone who has ever owned an NFT belongs in prison
Looks promising. They're definitely leaning on the retro vibes and they seem to have a budget
We're a century away from self-driving cars that can handle snowfall
Just this year farmers with self-driving tractors got screwed because a solar flare made GPS inaccurate and so tractors went wild because they were programmed with the assumption of GPS being 100% reliable and accurate with no way to override
Not sure if we're agreeing and saying exactly the same thing here, but Uber's business model is to get suckers who are bad at math to own the cars.

Self-driving Uber doesn't work because Uber would have to own the cars and therefore has to cover vehicle insurance, vehicle depreciation, and so on out of its own margin.
Abolish snowfall

Technically, they had a few more monarchs (Louis XVIII, Charles X, Louis Philippe I) after Marie Antoinette's husband even if you don't count the two emperors. The fifth republic looks unlikely to lapse, though

The Fediverse has 1 million active users. Threads has 130 million active users. This is not an EEE play because a 100% successful EEE play would amount to increasing the Threads userbase by less than 1%. Meta is doing this for non-EEE reasons.
One possible non-EEE reason would be to have plausible deniability for monopolistic practices. If they make a show of interoperating with irrelevant nobodies like us, they can pretend to be a nice tech company rather than a mean anti-competitive monopoly.
Now would be a great time for the federal NDP to have a leadership race. A year until next election. Singh is past his prime. Get some free press.
Would Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, and arguably Afghanistan be the fault of Marxist-Leninist-Stalinist colonialism?
Stalin made homosexuality illegal in the Soviet Union and continued the Russian colonization of central Asia. Brezhnev invaded Afghanistan. The laws weren't repealed until Russia seceded from the Soviet Union in 1991
