Turists in Venice

Venice, a former Mediterranean power, is dead. Millions come to see the ruins. 

Trying to Understand Quantum

 So I am not the only one trying to understand what this quantum thingie is about. Darpa has been formally studying quantum computing for a year, employing fifty experts, and now will advance designs from Microsoft and California-based PsiQuantum to the next phase of its Quantum Benchmarking Initiative. Through the program, DARPA wants to understand whether it’s possible to develop a utility-scale quantum computing system — which means that its computational value is greater than its cost — by 2033. 

Conclusion: Quantum computers are not around the corner.

Musk's Children

Musk is the father of 12 children by three women. One child died in infancy.

With Justine Wilson:

• 2002: Nevada, died at 10 weeks from sudden infant death syndrome.
• 2004: Twins Griffin and Vivian
  • Vivian legally changed her name and gender in 2022
• 2006: Triplets Kai, Saxon, and Damian

With c (aka Grimes, Claire Boucher)

• 2020: X Æ A-12, later changed to X Æ A-Xii to comply with California laws that don't accept numbers in names. His nickname is X.
• 2021: Exa Dark Sideræl, via surrogate, nicknamed Y. The name is pronounced “sigh-deer-ee-el” 
• 2023: Techno Mechanicus, nicknamed Tau.
• 
  
• Shivon Zilis,  project director of his Neuralink company.

• 2021: Twins Azure, Strider
• 2024: another child whose name, and sex haven't been revealed, via surrogate. 

Musk explained how to pronounce his son's name," saying, “It’s just X, the letter X. Then ‘Æ’ is pronounced ‘Ash,’ and ‘A-12’ was my contribution.”  The boy's name is said: X Ash A Twelve.

My comment: Musk has obviously suffered from AIF for years, which fed his obsession with reproduction. His partners were past their peak fertility. Shivon, for example, is 38.

 My girl used me like an animal.

Comment: Today, magazines are more prude. That's why populations are decreasing. Even pornhub is boring. No more romance is left. 

Modern Romances

 

When kisses are not enough. 

Every story true. 

For ten cents.

Silver Instead

With gold trading at $2,940 and silver still down at $32.22, the gold-to-silver ratio is over 90 to 1. Since gold is highly likely to continue rising, an explosive catch-up move in silver is likely soon. So if you think you missed the boat on gold, just buy some silver instead.

I had the same idea a few years ago, but it never turned factual.

It's already happened again. Somebody has diarrhea of the mouth and doesn't know what they're talking about.
