Does Disney's Dramatic Decline Reflect Growing Public Opposition To Woke Activism?
Is the karmic hammer finally swinging back to hit Disney in the face after nearly a decade of woke bullying...?

"Actually, no graves had been discovered; their existence was extrapolated from “anomalies” in the earth found by ground-penetrating radar. Such anomalies are commonplace, however, and usually indicate a tree root, a large rock, or some other innocuous presence. Today, after three years and almost $8 million of publicly unaccountable funds being expended, no graves have been found. No one has bothered to even start the digging necessary to verify anything."

Missile that killed Hamas chief in Tehran was launched from nearby building, @AmichaiStein1 reports citing Sky News. Lots of mixed reporting today on strike method. Whoever carried out the operation (as well as Iran itself) may wish to keep that info private.

Evil in the High Courts
This is absolutely and utterly evil. This is the sort of thing that is going to lead to the revolution and chaos that will bring the Empire down from within. It’s also directly against the recent decision of the US Supreme Court, which ruled that non-vaccines like the Covid-19 shots cannot be mandated: Schools have […]

Zeekr to Block Electric Vehicles in Russia
Chinese electric vehicle manufacturer Zeekr will block its cars in Russia due to concerns about secondary US sanctions. The official export of electric vehicles to Russia is prohibited, and the disabling of functions will affect all electric cars manufactured after July 15, 2024, that are imported into Russia illegally.
Upon detecting a foreign SIM card, the manufacturer will send the owner a warning, offering the option to return the car to China. If this warning is ignored, the main screen functions, such as navigation, music, and air conditioning, will be blocked.

TIL in 1914 a boy threw a tennis ball that got stuck high up in an archway of the Lincoln Cathedral. Over 90 years later, the boy's nephew wrote a letter to the cathedral asking if he could have it back, though secretly hoping the cathedral would notice it and leave it in place.

"Ukrainian Autonomous Systems"
Amid the dire situation with electricity supply in the country, Ukrainians have begun to power their homes and businesses with Tesla batteries.
Businessmen who have been buying broken Teslas at insurance auctions in the US and importing them to Ukraine for years used to restore the cars and resell them, but now they are simply disassembling them. Specialists assemble rechargeable systems from removed Tesla batteries and use them as accumulators, and sell the remains of the car for spare parts. According to the newly minted entrepreneurs, one discarded Tesla will turn into a dozen home batteries. By the way, some of the batteries are sold without a markup to the army, but the bulk of customers are civilians. Over the past two months, demand has jumped from almost zero to sky-high levels, and with winter approaching, it will obviously grow even more.
Businesses have had to adapt, because they need to somehow deal with regular power outages. According to analysts, Ukrainians will face power outages until the end of the conflict and beyond, until the country's energy system is fully restored. Another question is why not solve the issue globally by calling on their leader to negotiate? But that's a completely different story, and for now the energy crisis continues to multiply business costs throughout Ukraine, and Tesla owners keep an eye on their eco-friendly and, as it turns out, highly sought-after cars.

Australian banks, airlines, and TV broadcasters first raised the alarm as thousands of machines started to go offline. The issues are now spreading, as businesses based in Europe are starting their working days. UK broadcaster Sky News is currently unable to broadcast its morning news bulletins, and is showing a message apologizing for “the interruption to this broadcast.” Ryanair, one of the biggest airlines in Europe, also says it’s experiencing a “third-party” IT issue, which is impacting flight departures.
The US Federal Aviation Administration says all flights from Delta, United, and American Airlines are grounded due to a “communication issue.” Berlin airport is also warning of travel delays due to “technical issues.”

"In a joint statement released Tuesday, the LWF and Orthodox leaders explained that they agreed to “suggest that the translation of the Greek original (without the Filioque) be used in the hope that this will contribute to the healing of age-old divisions between our communities and enable us to confess together the faith of the Ecumenical Councils of Nicæa (325) and Constantinople (381).”"

If you want to know how far the UK Government will go with 'One Login', look at Estonia.
We go step by step & having the digital [identity] wallet is the first step.
Estonia introduced e-ID in the early 2000's & made it mandatory to achieve mass uptake.
The Baltic state of 1.3m people has become a role model for the digitisation of state services across the world.
'One Login' along with digital age verification / assurance services are steps towards a state unified National ID.
