I have been watching a lot of videos on youtube by two guys, one American the other South African, who lived in China for 10-12 years. They worked and biked around the country, are both completely fluent in the culture and even ended up with Chinese wives. They seem to understand a LOT about Chinese...

Central and South America have always had corruption problems, predating the drug trade by centuries. The drug problem gave the "bad guys" a LOT more money and thus greatly magnified the problem. At this point there is no solution, but a large war would interrupt illegal trade about as much as regul...

Corruption, Drug Money - Drug Gangs, near Anarchy. Another country south of our border implodes. I don't see how the country digs itself out of its current mess without draconian measures, which would lead to a whole other slate of problems. Note that this was once one of the better places in South ...

I wonder if he's watched the new riveting Netflix doom and gloom movie. It's pretty riveting if you think a cyber attack is probably coming as we're told by the FBI director. It's a good movie but maybe too scary for those frightened by Doom and Gloom.

What's the name of the movie? Curious.

Personally, I hope the "No Labels" proto-party puts forward Manchin as a candidate, and the majority of Americans, who are sick of both current major parties, will opt for him. How is Manchin any different? He's not an extremist (Trump) or the front for them (Biden on other side). He's the best sho...

The "night vision on the cheap" option is to go with an infra-red spotlight and scope. You would be at a serious disadvantage if the opponents had infra-red, but those that you are worried about are not going to have tech (or know how to use it).
