Swedish Griffen vs American (Trump) F-35
August1991 replied to August1991's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Trump made Carney. And Carney is not going to buy a Swedish jet. ===== If I were a Poilievre & PSPP, I would stand up for this country. -
True. And Eyeball, you want to impose human problems on innocent animals. ===== I live in Montreal, on island. I reckon that we must solve urban city problems better.
-
Disagree. This forum was first public (Lethbridge), then private... ===== Nowadays it is cheap to have a forum. The cost is to verify posts - such as me. I am surprised this forum still exists

Team always knows? ==== Target was private. Berlin was public.

War Gaming Taiwan, American defeat?
August1991 replied to paxamericana's topic in The Rest of the World
I strongly disagree. === Truman/Kennedy/Reagan/Thatcher fought these socialists, on a world scale. They won. ---- Taiwan, like Hong Kong, is part of China. -
Migration, Immigration, Emigration -Expats vs Immigrants
August1991 replied to August1991's topic in The Rest of the World
Nationalist, I have not looked at your posts. Dunno. I am not American. ====== Some foreigners living abroad are described as "immigrants". Other foreigners living abroad are described as "expats". What's the difference? -
Swedish Griffen vs American (Trump) F-35
August1991 replied to August1991's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
What we do in Canada is our affairs -whatever plane. ==== Trump gaslights the American left. Trump has nothing to do with Canada - except when he gets a federal Liberal elected. As a Canadian, I generally ignore Trump. -
Without Alberta & Quebec - What is Ontario?
August1991 replied to August1991's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Pierre Trudeau, to his credit, understood this country. He used the federal party to gain power. Carney, and the current federal Liberals, mis-understand Canada. -
Many women dislike Trump & Poilievre: Why?
August1991 replied to August1991's topic in Sex and Gender Issues
Huh? Steady increase? Women don't like Trump - women don't like Poilievre. -
Artificial Intelligence -Two "Types"
August1991 replied to August1991's topic in Health, Science and Technology
Rich important people like Musk/Gates/Zuckerburg/Trump/Xi/Putin trust other people (humans) to organise their lives. Would you entrust your life the same way? -
Yet, the comparison is germane. Some humans feed squirrels the same way they feed fellow humans.
-
Typical die-hard anglo/federalists/limo-liberal/Westmount/west-island have no alternative. The PLQ has become an enclave.

Easier said than done. I like Visual Studio.

AI -We Get This All Wrong
August1991 replied to August1991's topic in Health, Science and Technology
I suspect that local banks will lead AI. Maybe Apple. Nobody trusts the Internet, Facebook, Microsoft or Google anymore. -
AI -We Get This All Wrong
August1991 replied to August1991's topic in Health, Science and Technology
Still laughing. But true, CdnFox, I dunno. ===== Years ago, I walked through the home of a rich American person in the late 19th century (Sarasota, Fla - Ringling). It had hot and cold running water. I recall seeing the bathroom of Louis XV. It had a tub. Versailles? It has a small opera room, similar to many home-theatre rooms in America today. Here's my point: What rich people did in the past, everyone will do in the future. ==== Except Elvis. We will not all have shag carpet. -
AI -We Get This All Wrong

JS, you lost me there. AI is not about original thought. AI is understanding what I do. It is my assistant. -
To defeat the Soviets, the Americans put Pershing missiles in West Germany. Surely the Americans can put drones in Mexico.

Without Alberta & Quebec - What is Ontario?
August1991 replied to August1991's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
And what of Newfoundland? Newfoundland -the island province. Set aside the Labrador coast. -
IMHO, Ontario would be Michigan. Toronto would be Detroit. ==== Who has the power/control?

Thoughts on Summer 1914 - and our current world
August1991 replied to August1991's topic in The Rest of the World
Sometimes I wish that Pierre Trudeau were alive today and could say what he thinks about world affairs. He was a federalist. Lévesque was a democrat. -
The Sopranos? Laval = New Jersey Island = Manhattan

Dick Cheney Funeral
August1991 replied to August1991's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
I reckon Truman, Kennedy, Johnson and Reagan won the Cold War. Nixon was an appeaser - a true peace-maker. ===== To his credit, Nixon managed peace in his time. -
AI -We Get This All Wrong
August1991 replied to August1991's topic in Health, Science and Technology
Artificial Intelligence is all about sophisticated pattern recognition. 1) AI should learn what I do and help me. I have my own way of organising files. 2) AI should decode the human DNA. -

August1991 replied to August1991's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
Europe faced a similiar problem in 1815. The world faced a similar problem in 1945. The political world, since 1989 or so, is a complicated place. -
I reckon that this is a legitimate question. To defeat the Soviets, for good reason, you Americans bombed the heck of North Korea, and North Vietnam. But then, you dropped bombs on Belgrade. You invaded Iraq - for no reason. ==== Mexico? Go for it.
